Blazeinshore, I'd like to put a little in here in response.

When I first came to this site I was also daunted by the payments page. I had never bought anything online and only had a debit card. I asked Fencer for other options and after some discussion with him and other British members who have had this trouble, I decided my best bet would be to send cash through the post.

My debit card did not work on the online payment options, a money order is very expensive for us Brits to buy and I had no idea how to do a bank transfer to a foreign country.

I was advised by a friend to go to a main post office, where they exchange money with no extra cost like you get at travel agents.

I got $16 and put it in an envelope, and posted it! It was very easy, and didn't cost too much (it was my Christmas present from my boyfriend). I think it was around £10-£12. That was for 6 months rook membership.

Since then I have opened a paypal account and actually renewed my membership this morning. Its VERY easy to do. If you have a bank account. Even just a savings account would do. You can get those quite easily when you dont work.

Anybody who would like some advice on payment methods from the UK I would be very happy to discuss it with you. If you're not comfortable with sending cash abroad I could pay for you via paypal and you send me a postal order.
I spent a long time looking into the best ways to pay for myself and would be happy to share it with anyone who asks.

Thanks for your response harley!

I believe your posting verifies some of the points I made in mine. The fact that it can be a challenge finding methods of payment. Well done for taking the time to actually look into the various options and also for your willingness to advise and assist other people in gaining membership!

If there were someone like yourself from every country where people are wanting to become members I feel this site would gain more and more paid members; clearly the problems vary from country to country. I believe there would be many British members willing to send you a postal order in lieu of your subscribing them through paypal so you may have your work cut out there! Lol. Needless to say it's great you support the site and are prepared to assist people in becoming paid members.

Would perhaps be beneficial to the site if Fencer selected a couple of representatives from each country (where members exist) in order to help people find ways of becoming paid members!

I think its a great idea to have a representative from every country or every major country.
I take Visa (have my own business) and would be more then willing to help out in that way.

That's great Rose. Wonderful that you would be willing to put in the time and effort to help the site progress and also to help people who have the means to pay become members by maybe advising them or assisting them on their method of payment!

I'm now anxious for some feedback from Fencer and Liquid on this as I do feel it has potential to increase site revenue and volume of paid members!
