Vip subscriptions

I did an exercise this evening to try and find out how to become a VIP as I was asked by a member as it was some time ago when I paid for my subscription and the site has since been upgraded:-

1. Where if you want to upgrade to VIP, how do you go about it. Eventually I found in settings account subscriptions, having looked at the tiny icon I cannot make out when my subscription comes to an end and it states that they do do send renewal reminders out. So how does one know when you are about to expire???

2. Any member wanting to pay a subscription to join VIP where is it advertised on the site - surley it would make sense to have an upgrade button similar to the green donate button in place should members who would like to pay to become VIP, I believe this would make sense.

Settings - paid subscriptions.

Tells you when it started and when it ends.

As I said I found it and know where it is now but i cannot read the icon it as it is so small and unreadable when I open it up, so still none the wiser what date it is to be renewed or indeed what date it started.

Re: Vip subscriptions

Ever had a manual intervention on your account, suspension (even in error) or an admin cock up etc ?

Guessing they might have bypassed the 10 years that the auto would have placed.

Re: Vip subscriptions

Hmmmmmm yes me to paid for the long term possibly 10 years ( some years ago- seems like forever though) but when you go into paid subsciptions there is an square icon with something on it but it is totally unreadable and there is no way of making it bigger.

Hopefully someone from admin like our lovely Amethyst or Tools will take a look and unravel the mystery of the VIP's paid subscriptions. I posted this up initially to grab their attention and hope that they will pick this up and look into this after the holidays.

yep--in early 2010 Ame asked me and Bill to come and work in PPi (from PCF and got VIP status given)--but paid last year for 10 yrs (i think)
