I don't know what's going on but, the system is not accepting my credit card. I didn't try paypal, cz I think it ain't gonna work for non-US residents.
Any other way I can become a member, with full access? |

I guess I found out why. Called up my bank and my card, which was supposed to be an international one, is not! So I can't buy anything in USD.
Sheesh......so much foy my membership. |

There's always a way.
I wasn't ready for paypal when I wanted to join. So I contacted the site owners using the Help/Contact link: Drew and Langdon contact link They sent me the info so I could write a personal check--I do live in the U.S. so your results may vary.
Don't give up on your quest for membership--it really is worth every penny and more! |

I do have some checks from the Atlantic bank (of when i used to live in tampa) and I think I had something like 30-40 bucks on the account.
Think I can mail one of those?
IF, and I said, IF my account still exists hehe. Haven't had any withdraw or deposit, or movement at all since july 2002.
Any way that can be checked out? If the account still exists? |

You'll have to contact the bank from the info on the checks you have. There is also the method of getting a cashiers check from a bank in USD, and sending it to them that way. (or an international money order, if they're available.) |

Weeeeee, I can actually send money orders through Banco do Brasil (the national bank). It'll be something like R$ 65,00 (local currency) for the U$ 25.
R$ 5,4166666666 a month! A beer and a pack of marlboros! I guess I can live with one less of those a month! :-D |

Sheesh,
In USA we pay 25 dollars a year, equals just over 2 dollars a month. A pack of cigarettes goes for just over 5 dollars, and a beer for over a dollar; call it $6.50 a month for a beer and a pack of cigarettes. You guys got it CHEAP down there.

The accound should still exist but might be in dormant status, unless dormant account fees have wiped out the balance. A call to the bank should resolve the issue -- the question is whether it's more costly than it's worth.
