Damn, this had to happen just as I got the ***** to pay up for PM. I literally clicked the link at the top of the board and I was like, "I am ****ing doing it today, damnit. This is it. I am goddamn ready for this baby." then it took me to Paypal and I read the text and then it all became;

 

Any chance we can get the option to buy lifetime membership again guys? I'd like to get that instead!

 

I'll sign up for a premier membership again when there is another payment option than paypal.

 

Still trying and it's not working......... :-/

 

Yeah, I gave up on trying. Looks as if IB is losing money by not getting this resolved any faster.

 

free temp membership???

 

Trying to purchase Premium Membership and couldn't pay Stumbled upon this post.

I agree with Alvin, I'd do the lifetime if you guys offer it!

 

I've inquired again about the Paypal issues. I'll update when I get an update...

 

Thanks bro! Can you see if they would add the lifetime membership again?

 

I am really sorry - we have been contacting Paypal twice a day.
As soon as its fixed we will let you know.

 

I'd like to renew - have a ton in my PM Box - some that I'd rather not delete and have some thing fs in the market place- any way you can extend my PM until this is resolved? I'll paypal you the money to hold on to in the mean time if the money is a big deal.

 

I'd be willing to do the same Need my Premier membership soon as well

 

Neither can I. Also I missed incoming messages because my mailbox was full.

 

Since this was an option, say 2004, I have re-upped every year and that included this extra storage. Since I can't give the forum my money, my Premier Membership benefits are now gone. I first found out when one of the mods tried to send me a PM (sorry Wired 24/7).

Now yes, I have had to go back through messages and cull enough to get under this total, it was a total PITA that I've paid 5+ years in a row to avoid dealing with deciding what I wanted to keep and what I didn't.

Not a solution. It's been over a week - how hard is it to fix a PayPal Merchant account?

Suggestion - offer a 2 or 3 year renewal, too. You get more money up front, we both win.

 

Still doesn't work I was cleaning out my PMs yesterday because my box was getting full and accidently deleted a bunch of PMs out of my inbox instead of the send box. Chits! Lost a few good PMs from vendors. Lame.

 

Still isn't working for me either. Can I have PM until it gets resolved? I was halfway downloading something. Thanks.

 

I personally own a buisness - and have to say I would have resolved this right away. What would it hurt to give those looking for a PM a temporary pass until it was resolved? What's even worse is having current members accounts expire send them a Renew now message and then drop there account because of a problem on the boards side!

Absurd - I may not renew.

 

^ I agree. I own my own buisness as well. Bad customer service will get you 0 repeat customers.

IB lock it up!

 

Looks like no PM for me. Wifey spent the money already

 

What's the big deal seriously, delete your old PMs and make room for new ones.
Or download the ones you have if you don't want to lose them.
