Yes. I did the same, bought and played with a sub. Dropped and then came back once the F2p option it. If you go to the O-boards and can find it, there's a chart but just off the top of my head .....
- Listed as a premium player vice Free
- Extra character slots (5? instead of 2)
- Increased money limit
- Something about more mail and chat limits
Etc.....
Basically you're better off than a total Free player, but not as good as a Sub. Although the Free / Premium players have the same access to the same free dungeons. Personally I think there's enough at the lower level end to make playing free worthwhile using DDO as a second game. If you're mid to high level than you'll probably feel constrained.
As a direct answer to your 2 items: no extra content and no free TP's for past players, not in the way it sounds like you're asking. You do get TP's = Favor points some how. It's not a 1 to 1 ratio but there's some for each server you're on.
what you get for haveing bought the game befor F2P
1 . 4 toon slots where the free players get 2
2 . unlimited money on your toons .,, free players can hold only a small amount of money at 1 time.
3. full use of the auction house ... free players get 1 auction item in house at a time.
4. priority log in incase of serv. overload
5. a small bit of customer support ... free players get auto directed to FAQ
also i think i got a welcome back gift of some kind the day i logged back in to my account weeks after free to play opened a syb cake or something. its been like a year im old and my memery is bad
