I read a reminder about it going pay a couple of days ago but can't
remember if it was in an email or one of the ng's. Whichever it was I can't find it now g Joan Heather wrote: Hey Alias......I have never received any notification from the Deutsch news server that I have to pay.......an oversight?

Heather Dear users of News.Individual.NET, as announced via e-mail, news(*) and WWW(**) on February 15th, 2005, use of News.Individual.NET will not be free of charge anymore effective from April 1st, 2005. The news service will continue as a fee-based service. The fee for an account for News.Individual.NET is 10 EUR per year (annual payment), that converts to only 0.84 EUR per month. The price includes VAT at 16%. (*) Message-ID: (**) http://news.individual.net/commercial.php Up to now, the only payment option available was payment through the financial service provider Firstgate (or their international partners, see http://firstgate.com/EU/en/international.html). We are pleased to announce that we are now able to offer an additional payment option: Bank transfer to bank account of Freie Universitaet Berlin Within Germany (for holders of German bank accounts), bank transfer to our bank account is done as usual with bank account number and BLZ (Bankleitzahl, bank number). For holders of non-German bank accounts, IBAN (International Bank Account Number) and BIC (Bank Identifier Code, SWIFT address) are available. But please note that our bank account is configured to reject payments that are subject to bank charges on our site (this can particularly happen when transfering funds from foreign bank accounts). Please contact your financial institution before sending us money and ask them if and what charges apply (the charges can be huge depending on where you reside). And please make sure only to send us money by bank transfer if you pay for all charges. To pay for your existing account for News.Individual.NET or to sign up for a new account, please go to: https://news.individual.net/register.php You can choose your preferred payment option (Firstgate or bank transfer) during the registration process. If you pay through Firstgate, your account will be activated as soon as we receive the acknowledgement of your payment from Firstgate. Normally, this happens instantly (real time). If you pay by bank transfer, your account will be activated as soon as your payment is booked to our bank account and recorded in our user administration system. You will receive an e-mail from us containing your account data when your account is activated and ready to use. Please note: * Due to administrative reasons, the 3 Months Subscription (5 EUR) is not available when paying by bank transfer. For this payment option, only the Annual Subscription (10 EUR) is available. If you prefer the 3 Months Subscription, please choose payment through Firstgate as your payment option. * Processing times at the banks involved may take some days even when sending money from German bank accounts; bank transfers from foreign bank accounts may take significant more time. There is nothing we can do to speed up this process, and we cannot track your money for you. If in doubt, please ask the financial institution through which you made your payment. * The fact that the payment has left your bank account does not mean that we have already received it. * Handling payments made by bank transfer to our bank account is no fully automated process, it contains steps that require human attention. Of course, we try to activate your account as soon as possible, but we ask for your understanding that the time required may vary highly due to the afore mentioned reasons. If you need instant activation, please choose payment through Firstgate as your payment option. * It is very likely that our banking account details (or banking account details allegedly ours) will soon circulate the net without our knowledge and approval. To protect you from fraud, and because we generate individual notes to payee for bank transfers to ensure correct payment allocation, we ask you to only use the bank transfer information that you receive from us during our web registration process. Thank you very much for your interest, and we would be happy if you decide to stay or become our user even if our service is not free of charge anymore.

OK.....I know about it from others....but never once received notification
and I was emailing one of the tech guys around the time of the announcement. I guess I will have to use my ISP's news groups.....yuck. That was an excellent server!! But I am not going to try and cope with the banking stuff when I have a free one here. Cheers.....Heather "Alias" wrote in message ...

I couldn't get a.c.v. or a.c.a.v from my ISP at the time I signed up
that is why I went with them, I will have to look if my new one does if not I will drop those two ng's. Joan Heather wrote: I guess I will have to use my ISP's news groups.....yuck.
