Dear GR, I have recently renewed my subscription as you are aware. I must say I am a little disappointed with the incomming correspondence and lack of it since

As a warning....hope Phil can intervene ....

SylviaInCanada, who is a longstanding, valued member and an excellent and loyal researcher on this site, is having problems in renewing her membership. She has asked that this message be passed on........

Today's result:-

They have changed my country of address to UK, as that is the only way in which I cna be charged in pounds sterling and not US dollars

They have refunded the charge of $14.45 USD to my credit card, and I can now pay in £ sterling

BUT in doing so, they have thus reduced me to a FREE member, and want me to pay £20 for 12 months

This is far more than the £9.95 minus 20% discount that I was offered 2 weeks ago, and far more than the $14.45 USD that I was charged!

I am "discussing" this with them ........ but of course it is now past closing time in the UK

If it remains at £20, I will most likely NOT rejoin


********************

This is a ridiculous situation. All of Sylvia's friends would be glad to see this issue resolved as we do not want to lose her. Thank you.

Let us hope it is just a glitch. I know you have to revert to 6 monthly membership if you leave and come back but Sylvia has not done this. It is ridiculous that Canada is not recognised by Genes when other countries are.

Sylvia is a very much liked member and a great one for helping people with their research.
