Contributing Membership


I used to be a contributing member, but don't seem to be any more.

I don't recall cancelling my contribution. Did I miss some sort of notification or something? Inquiring minds want to know.

(I don't want to start a new subscription in case I somehow end up with two subscriptions.)

Membership should auto-renew if that's the option you selected. Did you sign up using Paypal or a credit card? I'll look into it further and send you the details of what happened offline.

Probably a credit card as I avoid PayPal whenever possible plus rewards points, but, if I had to affirmatively check "auto-renew," I might have overlooked that. Heck, it was over a year ago.

Thanks.

Afterthought: You do good work. It's a pleasure to be your guest.

My apologies. You were successfully billed, but your Contributing Member status was not renewed. I'm looking into why now, but I've credited you with twice the duration of the lapse.

Thank you, but there's no need to credit me with anything. It's not like I paid for something and then didn't get it. It's more like I didn't pay for something but got it anyway.

I just want to make sure I keep supporting this place that has supported me so well for so long.

I think the same thing happened to me. I'm fairly sure I paid a month or so ago but my status didn't change. Might be my script blocker stopping a registration page or something?

@273, can you send me the details of your transaction offline? Thanks.
