Outside of the issue that we fixed, digital purchases do require a review period before they kick over from Starter to Full editions. We apologize for the inconvenience, but it is a necessary step to combat fraud and other malicious activities that can weaken everyone's play experience.
The delay is no longer than three days, and is often much quicker than that. Hang tight. :)
Or... or... you can combat fraud by punishing those that are frauds once you find out they are. You know, NOT punish the innocent.
So I take it you're opposed to verification emails too?
