Premium Membership Renewal

May I know how to renew my existing Premium Membership ? ... Tnx.

You'll be reminded by Chess.com, nearer the time.

big  yellow box on this page: http://www.chess.com/home/account.html 

Will you? Mine expires in 2 days and I haven't been reminded. However, it is also set up to auto-renew. I thought that was the default.

Mine was automatically renewed.

U mean it's automatically set to renew by itself ( auto -renew ) ?.. How did u do that ?

I don't quite get it .. My I year Membership expires on Jan 4th 2011 but I would like to renew Now .. so do I have to click on the 'Click here' Link on the Big Yellow Box and authorise Pay Pal to do it ?

Btw,Is there a Life Membership available n' how much is that, if it is ?

I you check the link erik posted you will see when it expires and mine actually says it is set to auto-renew. If you wanted to do it before then, I would think you could just go to the membership page, select your level and payment option and renew.

As to life memberships, erik has mentioned in other topics about it, with a price, but I don't know if that is still an option. Maybe he'll reply to that.

Tnx Martin_Stahl.

Mine says this ( on the Big Yellow Box) :

You have a Diamond Membership, scheduled to renew via PayPal on January 4, 2011.

Ok, that means its ' Auto renewable'.

.. but I wanted to renew earlier n' did go to the Membership Page to do it,but it says I cannot Upgrade as I already have a Diamond Membership.( There's no Option for Renewing.)

Also,would I be charged the Old or New Price if I renew Now/before Jan1 2011 or on Jan 4th 2011 ?

I'm almost certain there is a life membership available, Erik posted about it less than a month ago, but he said he wouldn't add it to the membership page.

I *think* you're supposed to send him a message about it if you're interested. maybe I'll go look that post up.

Ah, those would be questions for the staff. You can either wait for them to reply or open a ticket. I don't see why you wouldn't be able to renew in advance. Though, if you don't renew until after the 1st, I would think the new pricing structure would be in place and charged.

Yes, unfortunately if the subscription is done through Paypal then it is not possible to renew in advance of the current period ending. However, if you send me a message I can provide you with a payment link for this at the $95.88 rate.

Tnx Eniamar .. wld appreciate that but maybe Patzer24 knows ? .. I mean abt the Life Membership .

Ok,I'll send u a msg,Patzer24,but I still want/need to use Pay Pal. ( also I need to know abt the Life Membership first. )

Btw,I did send a ticket to staff earlier but there's no reply yet so I thot this might be faster .

Yes, the ticket was just replied to as well. Please see the response there for more information.

Ok,Thank you very Much,Everyone !

Patzer24 .. I think I was charged twice for the Renewal ... I juz sent a ticket but now there's no option to change the Priority Status of the Ticket to 'Urgent' from 'Normal'.

Can u kindly check for me ASAP ?

Tnx a lot !
