Chaps......

It`s hardly fooking rocket science........Even in French you can see it only has two sections..............Top shaded box is for a paypal member and bottom set of writing is for a non paypal member.....

For all of you getting the time out(think it`s a porting problem)go to the sticky at the top of GD about becoming a gold member and click on the symbol(visa/mastercard)half way down the page.....this one seems to work fine and is mostly in english....

Oh and don`t forget to put your username and what it`s for in the comments box.....

Hi Phil,

Just seen yours and one from Mike Rainbird. Will have a peek in a moment.

Nearly got a Ford but may have to get a Beemer to get noticed

Just to recap........

My gold membership has expired.

I want to renew my membership.

The link takes you to a page that is cpmpleteley in FRENCH.

I do not understand French so will not risk making a mistake as I will
be using a credit card to pay.

PLEASE SORT THIS - Thanks

ok, now : this is NOT a problem on our own but it is a Paypal problem that changed its way of working lately. There is a bug regarding the country where the account owner lives (paypal automatically considers everything should be the same language), and so they say they are currently working on this. Nothing i can do on my side, but it's not really hard to understand, you just need to enter the card details and click on "ok"...

Petrucci,

I really do appreciate what you are saying but it doesnt help me.

There are many fields of information required not just the credit card
details and foreign languages really confuse me.

I guess I will just have to wait for Paypal to pull there finger out and sort it.

Doesnt feel the same not being a gold member......


Good job I am no longer paranoid
