I'm a preferred player and I also have this problem. I wasn't sure if this was a feature or a bug.
This article says the following:
"As a Free-to-Play player, you have a Credit cap of 1 million Credits. Anything you earn over that is held in Escrow."
I interpret looting as "earning" in the context of this game. If it doesn't count, the article should be updated to reflect this.
@Belgorad Have you learned anything new yet? If this is indeed a feature, I wouldn't mind subscribing, but I also don't want to subscribe over a glitch if that's the case. 😛
Edit: I just discovered what Legacy Storage is. I went to legacy storage on the fleet and put all my credits there.
