Paypal only for subscriptions?

My membership is about to lapse, so after I received my notification email (thanks guys!) I went to renew.

The only payment option was Paypal-- is that correct or am I missing a link for credit cards?

Thanks!

Jerry mentioned earlier that payment processing will be going through Paypal from now on. But, if you follow through to the Paypal site, it gives you the option of using a credit card (Visa, MC, Amex, or Discover). So, without going through the payment motions myself, I believe that should work for you.

Oh- OK! Thanks.

As I’ve said before, that’s why I may not renew. After some problems, my partner has asked me not to give Paypal a credit card number, and with no other payment options, that’s it.

That is bad news for me, too. I cannot use Paypal because of a dispute. One time I used them, I did not receive what I had ordered, so I requested a refund. But Paypal does not refund to Thailand, presumably because of the high level of fraud here; instead they said they would give me a credit. So I simply had my credit-card company cancel payment. This did not go down very well with Paypal, but there was nothing they could do.

So again, no credit-card option, no renewal for me.

My understanding is that you’re not actually using a Paypal account (unless you have an account with them and want to use it). You’re just using Paypal as a credit card processor, so you just fill in the normal credit card info and off you go.

Ah, I see. Thanks. If that’s what it is, it will probably be okay. We’ll see in January!
