I paid my money, Paypal sez, but my subscription is still through 5-13-08. What?
(My email for Paypal is different than my email for here. But I paid through this site. Hm.)
I have also sent an email with more information. I actually went & paid again in the last hour.
I hope this gets sorted out by tomorrow, I thought I was well within deadline.
ETA: Just checked my User CP, & thanks!
So now you’re good thru 5/13/2010?
Excellent!
That is exactly what happened.
PayPal e-Check transactions are not instantaneous. The e-Check has to clear the payees account before the SDMB will record the transaction as successful and update the renewal date. This is all automated but takes multiple days. Until the e-Check transaction clears it will look as if nothing happened. The subscription renewal will not occur immediately. Clearing time is usually a couple days but can be longer.
PayPal credit/debit card transactions are instantaneous and do not exhibit this delayed behavior.

I meant to say, a refund isn’t necessary. But I just checked my account again & I’m paid through 2011. Um, did someone else donate to me, did I get a discount, or did my account get credited something it shouldn’t have?
Tuba Diva, can you cut me the same deal? I paid only two days earlier, but my subscription expires three or four years before theirs. Does this have something to do with my being Southern or is it because I prefer woodwinds?
Not sure what happened witih foolsguinea except that they paid multiple times. They’re fine with it as it stands and I’m not inclined to mess with it.
As for you, Zoe, not sure what you mean. At this point I’m not sure how often you can resubscribe – there used to be a two year limit but I honestly don’t know how much the system will let you pay up nowadays. It’s your money and your choice.
