You may or may not know but I was banned from PF for having a trade sig, and I repeatly kept on replacing it after it had been removed lol
Ok so I may have had it coming..
But firstly you can not purchase trade accounts at the moment
Secondly I even put up a post up regarding this matter https://passionford.com/forum/general-car-related-discussion/227606-request-to-mods.html
I just think mods/web team should maybe wait until PF is fully up and running before enforcing some of these rules.
On a serious note.
While I was banned I attempted to contact mods/web team via the "contact us" (on the banned page thats presented to you when banned) and got this returned:

if you're sig has dealer stuff promoting you, then it can be removed
and ultimatly yuou can be banned
there is however, nothing stopping someone else from advertising your services as a recomendation who is not you under another name
wait till it's sorted mate and then get the sig back, better to have no sig and be able to post than to persist with the sig and then have yourself repeated banned and get yourself into more and more trouble each time
if you can have a trade account now then sorted, if you cannot, then you can always try and put a post in the passionford problems and policies room (or is that goldmembers only?)
either way, it's a tenner for gold memebrship and i'm sure they'll let you have a tenner knocked off the trader price
