Dimond for 1 month only

Hi, Last month I bought a yearly Platinum membership but would like a Diamond membership for one month only (really just to try insights). If I buy Diamond for 1 month only, will I still keep my remaining Platinum membership months after Diamond expires?

Thanks!

Hmm.

When you upgrade, they give you a credit for the remaining portion of your membership and then charge you for the diamond subscription at the monthly rate.  You would then be a diamond subscriber at the monthly rate and your subscription would continue at that rate until the money runs out. 

I can't do the exact calculations in pounds but in US$,  a platinum subscription costs $49 per year.   11/12 of $49 is $44.92.   Take away $14 for a one month diamond, leaves $30.92. Convert that back to Platinum at the effective $4.08 per month price on an annual subscription and you get something like 7 1/2 months.

Presumably, you could downgrade at the end of the month back to Platinum and any balance could be put towards a Platinum subscrption.

Many thanks for your answer, it sounds like more trouble than it's worth but good to know how the subscription mechanics work.

It's really no trouble for you.  I just explained it so that you know what will happen.

Wh-- why are you starting an argument on your mod account?

The guy said it sounds like too much trouble for him.
