STORM2K NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT!!!

#1 Postby vbhoutex » Mon Mar 31, 2014 1:14 pm

Okay folks, we told you we would keep you posted on our funds situation so here it is. After paying the bill for March we have enough money left for April and part of May. Those are the facts. If we don't get more donations in STORM2K will have to shut down before the start of Hurricane season.
Vbhoutex paid off the bill after we found out we were way behind in our payments last year. He can not do that again. In fact we need to pay him back and have enough funds to keep the site up and running.
We sound like a broken record but the facts are that if each participating member sent in $10 a month we would have plenty to keep STORM2K going. There are normally regularly about 125-150 participating members so even if each one sent in $5 a month we would have more than enough to pay our bills. It sure would be nice if we didn't have to plead for funds every couple of months. Can you find it in yourself to part with $5 or $10 each month for this site that we all depend on for good information to keep it up and running? I hope so.
We all seem to have enough money to have a computer and/or a smartphone to check the site on so let's make this happen.

A lot of people donate without saying anything. :) We have some people who even refuse the orange name. Usually folks step up when asked, and every little bit helps!

I made a monthly subscription via paypal so I donate a small amount every month without having to think about it. I encourage others to do the same if possible.

Thanks!

FYI... None of the automatic donations set up are going through. They say that there's a problem with the payment information, but that's hard to believe with every single monthly donation set up. There has to be a glitch. All of the one time donations are processing fine. So if you set up monthly donations and thought that they had been going through, they haven't. Check your bank statements for confirmation. If you still want to donate what you thought you already were donating, please do it as a one-time donation.

We really appreciate your support!

Ok, I see the problem with mine but not sure why it happened.

Primary payment method: PayPal balance
Backup payment method: Not set

Primary payment method should be my standard funding source since I don't have a paypal balance. I set backup method to my bank account now so it should go through.

You can get to subscriptions by logging into Paypal, Profile/MyMoney/My preapproved payments (click update button)

Looks like the same thing that happened to Mark has happened with mine as well... not sure how it got reset to PayPal balance because I never have one either - I just have it come from my bank account. Mine should be fixed now.

Okay, "I just bought a week for Storm2K" (hmmm, think i'll take the first week in October - I'm guessing some system might be lurking somewhere around about that time, LOL)
