annual membership

21 May 2006

Please feel free to lock this, but we just wanted to know how do we go about getting membership charged once for a year after paying monthly?
We paid monthly to check the benefits, decided we liked it here and wanted to stay, but do we hafta cancel our account and start again, or is there an easier way? the Credit card payment always seems to go out just before we have the chance to pay for a year...
There doesn't seem to be an option for changing from the monthly charge to the (far more reasonable) annual fee....
Sorry if this is answered somewhere else, but it's late... confused

Personally what i would do is cancel the payments so they can't take no more out then once your membership is up make a yearly payment confused

or you could PM a admin and ask them to make your next payment a year one but be warned as a rule they never reply to PMs or maybe its just me they keep ignoring lol

If you want to PM admin by clicking here then I am sure he will be able to deal with this for you Monday morning biggrin

I've been on the site for about 3 years now and I 'expire' in Dec 2006. How much is the annual membership fee, when I need to renew ?

21 May 2006

Admin will make that clearer nearer the time, so I believe
other wise pm them and ask

21 May 2006

I'm going to just sit back in the corner and hope no one knows I'm here when its time to re-new!!
Should work........ biggrin

If you look in your account ir should say when you lapse. For most of the original members it seems to be Dec 2006

Got a reply of admin who said much as naughty said

In order to switch to the annual subscription, you would firstly need to cancel the monthly subscription which debits your account on a monthly basis.
Therefore once your account membership runs out for that last month that you paid, you can then upgrade to the year subscription and also the extras. However as these are two separate upgrades, two transactions would be required.

sorry that was yearly,

Just thought i'd have a say on the membership fees we've been a member of this site for over 3 year and obviously joined when it was free. We think that people who were members before the charge came in shouldn't have to pay anything as another popular swinging site done. Basically if you joined when it was free it should stay free.

I have been a member since Jan 2004 - and although I would love to enjoy free or subsidised membership ad infinitum, I certainly would not expect it as a right. SH is now owned by a commercial organisation and all the changes and upgrades have to be funded from somewhere.
We never owned the site, even when the lovely Black Dalek was around.
I am sure those who don't like the situation may vote with their feet when the time comes.
When my membership expires in December, it may very well be that I leave - this will definitely not be because I object to the charge - only that I could not justify the financial outlay.
For everyone on here - we are here because we CHOOSE to be - no one is twisting our arms!

Methinks the 'Member since' in the profile maybe a little glitchette
Everyone's is saying May 2006
