Account Expiration Warning

Jan 02, 2005 roguelazer link
My account just ran out, but I wasn't notified at all. I didn't even notice until I tried to login. Maybe a notification by e-mail could be set up?

moved to bugs. Ray is more likely to see it in here.

Seems more like a suggestion to me.

Though that's an excellent idea, especially for the people who bought a 2 year license...there'd be no way I'd remember exactly when I signed up after 2 years ;-).

don't worry, your accounts go to "conservation" mode until you pay again..

I think of this as a bug because I assumed it was already supposed to email you with a warning.

Perhaps it's a bug that has something to do with my pre-order account vs a normal account?

yea... I didn't get any warning either, and only barely remembered.

I didn't receive an email but I did receive notification upon login that my account had "less than a day" left each time that I logged in.

same as paedric, here.... funny thing is, I *still* got the notice even after I bought more time :o

credit card accounts renew automatically, and never tell you. You could fall into a coma and run up VO charges until the card expired.

BTW, how do you keep it from doing that?

Dont fall into a coma? ;)
