Hoping for gold membership

[bladeknot]

Hi. I was hoping to have the gold membership which I paid for last night, and was just wondering how long it usually takes for that type of membership to activate after purchase? Thanks in advance- bladeknot

Your membership hasn't gone through yet. If you used PayPal it can take 2 to 3 days.

Check this link http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/profile.php?do=editusergroups periodically to see if your Gold is available to click on so it shows on your user name).

It´s a long hard waiting time for me, too!
I have the same problem, but it´s my day 3 after paying for gold!
So I hope, the waiting time is over in a short time!

Update: Day 7 and still waiting. Any word? Is this "Business as Usual?", or should I start e-mailing moderators and PayPal?

Have you checked your permission group yet? Once the payment goes through you still have to change yourself to gold.

Go to your profile- settings- permission group

 

[bladeknot]

Checked permissions..- Nothing.

 

[Peter S.]

The same here! Nothing!

 

[Peter S.]

On day 7 after paying I´m still not a gold member!

Please can someone of the mod-team check, what´s the problem there at the moment?!

Thx!

Post feed back on it? 9 Days is an eternity to wait for that... Especially considering you are supporting the site.
