Why don't you pay by credit card? Mar 27, 2003

Sorry, I saw that you wrote \"... the fill-in form on the site for wire transfer...\" so you probably already decided to pay by wire transfer.



In my humble opinion, however, by credit card you should have less Bank charges and commission and also the Dollar exchange rate should be better.

standard delay when upgrading via Paypal? Mar 28, 2003

Hi all,

Just wondering what the standard delay is for upgrading via Paypal and whether it could be stated on the upgrade page...? I made a payment on Tuesday evening and haven\'t been upgraded yet.

On the Platinum page it states that you should \"allow 1-2 weeks for checks or wire transfers to be processed\" but says nothing about Paypal.



Looking forward to the upgrade!

Regards,<... See more

agree with Marisa! Mar 28, 2003

If you do not want to insert your credit card details into the Internet, you can fax them to the staff. I paid my membership in this way and it worked quickly and smoothly!
