My Subscription Renewal - Paid Promptly but Still Expired

[Math Is Hard]

I got an email notice April 1 that my PF subscription was about to expire. I was out of town when that notice came, so I paid the renewal by PayPal yesterday (April 3) when I got back to the office.

This morning the subscription obviously expired, because my Gold lettering is gone and I see ads on the site.

I think I paid promptly enough. What's the deal?

Just PM Greg and he'll resolve it for you.

hmmm.. I am having PM problems so I can't write to Greg. When I click on Private Messages I get this:

I had similar problems when I renewed. There is something funky about the link between PF and Paypal. I actually had to do directly through PayPal, by-passing PF.

yeah, it's very weird. Last year it went through without a hitch. I saved my confirmation email from paypal in case Greg needs it.

Perhaps issues with the new server - - still.

I've got problems with PM too!

 

[Astronuc]

That was quick.

MIH - you're gold again.

Well - you're always gold to us.

PM problem seems to be resolved now.

-"Apologise" is spelled with z; correctly spelled, "we apologize for any inconvenience."

-I think "E-Mail" is usually written in lowercase, as "e-mail"

Yes, but our great Greg Bernhardt lives in Wisconsin--in USA, not the UK!

-In Wisconsin, American English would be the standard
