There used to be another option to pay by CC when you clicked the Paypal link, but that is apparently gone now

Has this issue been resolved in some way??
I'm thinking not as it I'm finding out about more issues with more users memberships.

Member "enzo thecat" told me via PM that he paid for a Platinum Membership that never received. His account is now in locked or in limbo and he can no longer post or send/receive PM's either. His Primary USER GROUP now shows "Users Awaiting Email Confirmation"

no !!!

I can see that it has not been fixed for you or 90Viper. My question was to see if IB had solved the issue going forward.

I have not forgotten about you guys and am doing what I can to make sure you get what you paid for.
When it finally gets fixed, the year membership should start on the date it goes into effect and not the date you paid for it.

Administration at this point just refund my card I’m done

Anyone who has paid for a membership and not had any changes in their account, please PM me your transaction ID and I will fix it, as well as add extra time to your premium membership as compensation for the delay.

at this point I just want my money back !!!

just refund my card

No problem at all, just still need the transaction number to send to accounting
