I've subscribed?

[GPZ1000RX]

Can anyone offer guidance/reassurance?

I think I subscribed to the club about 2 weeks ago, filled in the online form(s), got diverted to PayPal, signed on with them, got told I was over my transaction limit (for fifteen quid????), signed up for a useable limit ($1.95), got all the acknowledgements back from PayPal, just waiting for my security code to arrive on my credit card statement.

BUT..... I still can't log onto the site as a subscriber! How long does the proccessing usually take?, have I messed something up?, am I just being impatient? etc etc.

Help I'm confused?!?!?!

Cheers guys, Paul.[8)]

I will look into it, but I would say if you are still waiting for your paypal security code, then you probably are not properly signed up for paypal yet so the payment to the club has not gone through?

If all you paid was $1.95 then I would expect the paypal system to not subscribe you until you have paid the full amount.

Thanks for your rapid reply,

I completed the club form to subscribe, at some point during the on line form filling I authorized payment of £15 to the club using my credit card details.

I very quickly received, from PayPal, notification that £15 was above some unspecified limit (£0?) this gave me the option to pay for an enhanced service, fee $1.95, I accepted this and authorized this payment to PayPal ($1.95).

I think that the security code, in my next credit card statement, is for my use to access my PayPal account statement etc.

My confusion arises from the fact that, if I use my credit card online to purchase, for instance, a full option Tiger tank with battle system (£600+) I would expect a van man with a very large package to be at my door within a few days.

I'm at a bit of a loss therefore, to understand why a simple subcription seems so fraught.

Can anyone post up an idiots guide to PayPal that might ease my furrowed brow?

Cheers, Paul.

Yes, you will get your security code in the next CC bill, till then you can't use Paypal, so no 600 quid tanks and Tamiyaclub memberships [V] But if you want it earlier you can try calling your CC card hotline, worked for me when my new CC came but at 4 calls, I got 4 different numbers (idiots [!]) and after 3 wrong attempts my Paypal got locked, luckily I found a phone number of Paypal in USA, those were some stressy days as I wanted to pay some ebay items...

Im waiting for the same thing aswell, just extra security measures.

I had to wait two weeks for mine too - consolation is you get your $1.95 back after you make your first transaction on your upgraded paypal account []
