SUBSCRIPTION PRICE / PAYPAL

I've had a couple questions by paying subscribers about the PayPal email that was sent out on May 1. As announced last month, the annual subscription price has increased from $29.95 to $39.95, which is our first price increase in 20 years. Your subscription and the increase is helping to cover all the programming updates we've done this year, so thank you for being a paid member!

To clarify, the PayPal email does NOT mean you were charged $39.95 yesterday. It is only a notification that the next time your subscription is due to renew it will be at the new price.

Additionally, my main business is called Uptown Sound, and your PayPal subscription for the top 40 database will be billed as Uptown Sound LLC.

Thanks for pointing out that a "success" message was missing. You're the first person to let me know. I think it will show a messaage now after checking out if I modified the code correctly.

I've also updated the price on the Terms And Conditions page, so it now reflects $39.95.

If your previous subscription was renewed anytime prior to mid-August 2024, the payment was being sent to Pat Downey. In August, we manually cancelled all of those subscriptions so that they would not auto renew. When I took over the site, I had everyone's subscription end dates documented, and I've been reaching out to those subscribers when it was time to renew by setting up a new subscription.

All that said, you will not be double-billed, and going forward your subscription will auto-renew unless you manually cancel it. mjb50, your subscription was set to expire within the next couple days, and I now have you updated through 2026.

John, yes, your subscription is good through June. When the time comes, I'll send a reminder email to set up a new subscription. Thanks!
