How do I renew “Custom Title Member Subscription”?  
I don’t find a place to click under “Paid Subscriptions”.  
Thanks!

Under paid subscriptions there should be two pull down menus. The top one should say **Straight Dope Board Membership** and the bottom one should say **Custom Title Member Subscription**. Is the bottom one not showing up for you?

Yes it is. I paid Sunday and today, but the renewal date hasn’t changed.  
I somehow screw this up when I renew.

Thanks again, engineer-comp-geek. I am obviously doing something wrong.

Is there a difference between

Custom Title Member Subscription and Custom Title Charter Subscription ?

You’re getting that one because you are a charter member.

As far as I’m aware, there’s no difference between that and a custom title for a member. It still shows up under your name. There might be a cost difference. I don’t know what they charge for the custom titles.

Has your credit card been charged? You should be able to go online with your credit card company and find out.

That is my problem, thanks.

My Pal pal has been charged and I’m good for two years now.
