Hi Everyone

I paid for membership earlier and was just wondering should it be instant or do i now have to wait for Admin to update my account?
Cheers

The upgrade after payment is done manually by Justin (admin) who works during the day, like we all do, so I'm sure he will no doubt be able to upgrade you later on today.

No big deal, was just curious wether it would upgrade automically or if I had to do something to activate it
Thanks

I usually get to them straight away but I'm out during the day and rely on a hit or miss phone signal up here. Very unusual no to get to them within the hour though. The biggest problem I usually find is members pay using a different email address on their PayPal account and I can't locate you under that email address. Also, although we ask for profile fields to be completed properly, again, this is often not done and when we search via name nothing can be found. In this instance I always email the address used on PayPal asking for the members username.

If you have paid and not had the membership applied please email me and i will set it up from this point so you haven't lost anything.

The forum should be doing this automatically and instantly but I have a slight issue and continue to update manually until I've sorted it.

Hi Justin, the rx50 email address doesn't ring any bells. My email address is robertsgareth81@yahoo.co.uk which is also the PayPal address that I used to pay

Justin,the short answer is.. I dont know, I cant be bothered to go back and try and find it, plus I have 3 paypal accounts and dont know which one I used. I presume it went through, Ive never had a payment not do so. That said, I dont need the forum discounts, I always negotiate my own and Im a premium member in spirit if not with a badge so it really doesnt matter.

Oh and I never contacted you about it either, so not to worry.
