+cache_test_dummies Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Looks like your account has somehow become trans-mouse-ified into something between a Premium Member and a Member account. The group listing on your forum posts shows you as belonging to the Premium Members group, but your account profile says you are a Member. What does it say on the right hand side of your Account Details page about your account status? Mine looks like this: Link to comment
Mr.Yuck Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Looks like your account has somehow become trans-mouse-ified into something between a Premium Member and a Member account. The group listing on your forum posts shows you as belonging to the Premium Members group, but your account profile says you are a Member. This happens. Pretty recently, Pay pal decided to get all wacky on me, threaten to cancel my Groundspeak premium membership, and proceed to cancel it about a week before the actual threatened date. I too was "trans-mous-ified" into a hybrid premium/non-premium member. This whole mess took about a week to clear up, and I didn't lose anything, PQ's, my cherished ignore list, anything, as far as I can tell. I suppose I was a lowly "geocacher" during that time period as well. Just wait it out Link to comment
+New England n00b Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 You can let a geocaching.com Premium Membership expire, and still be a Premium Member in the forums, as they don't seem to synch these two servers up in that regard. I know this from personal experience. Just because the Forum thinks you are premium doesn't mean that the meaty, juicy, Turkey-like geocaching.com forum thinks you are. So... my bet is the PayPal thing hasn't been FULLY processed yet. Link to comment

So now how do I go about getting the payment I made getting me back? Link to comment
+cache_test_dummies Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 So now how do I go about getting the payment I made getting me back? I'd send an email to contact@geocaching.com, explaining what is going on. The situation might just resolve itself in a few days anyway, but I wouldn't assume that. And I wouldn't assume that anybody with the ability to fix this problem has read this topic (I think that the topic title might make this look more like a user problem than a payment issue). By the way, Happy Thanksgiving, ATMouse! Link to comment
Mr.Yuck Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 How funny. I've just had my 2nd paypal fiasco within 6 months, and without warning, my $3 a month payment "failed", and I am relagated to being just a "geocacher". Paypal keeps asking me to "update" my checking account and credit card, even though there is no problem. And like I said, it was without warning, I just got an email the other day saying "subscription payment failed", and I am no longer a premium member (even though I re-signed up). I'm sure it's just a holiday weekend thing though. I tell you, if I lose that parking lot micro ignore list with over 100 caches on it, I'm not going to be a happy camper Link to comment

Zombie_Woof Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Okay, I emailed TPTB a couple of days ago and no response. I'm getting down right sad. Good Luck with that, still haven't done anything about my issue I have also sent mail, started a new thread, sent more mail. On the rare occasion that I get a response, they make a suggestion, or two. After I try the suggestions, and they don't help, I E-mail back, and never get any response. Link to comment
