Forum Funding - Statement of account UPDATED 04/11/2021

[Six-cylinder]

I have tried but got this?

 

FR-1001 - The payment has been cancelled.

[Stanky]

That'll be PP blocking ti again. FFS

 

Leave it with me - I'll get it unblocked shortly

[Stanky]

Ok, not blocked by PP for me - Mr_Cylinder, could you try again when you get a chance?

[beko1987]

Just worked for me! Been spending on the chod again Chris?

[Six-cylinder]

I am still struggling, I have been onto my paypal account and there does not seem to be anything wrong there.

[red5]

Worked for me.

 

Blatantly a better person then.  

[Craig the Princess]

A few quid thrown in the pot

Additionally, the moderation team made a contribution of £50.00 to St Elizabeth Hospice in memory of OldFord John on behalf of the forum

 

Thank you for doing that, that was a lovely gesture and very much appreciated. 

[Guest Hooli]

Out of interest, what are the expected software costs at the end of the year?

[Stanky]

Renewal of the forum software will be $25 in November, so about £24.98 at current exchange rates.

[Stanky]

Thanks for the contributions everyone, We've hit target and I've closed off the campaign.

[Guest Hooli]

Renewal of the forum software will be $25 in November, so about £24.98 at current exchange rates.

 

Cheap then. I was just wondering how much of the buffer it'd absorb, but seems it won't be an issue.

[Stanky]

Yes, the initial purchase is about £225, but subsequent 'renewals' of the software for 6 months at a time are much less expensive.

[Guest Hooli]

I wish our support contracts at work were so cheap!

[Stanky]

Monthly update on forum finances.

 

Last months FundRazr hit £109.00, thanks to all who donated, it is very much appreciated.

 

Costs this month have been a total of £83.00 for the hosting and backups. Fundrazr admin costs and paypal processing fees were a further £10.90.

 

Combined, the costs were £93.90

 

The current balance in the account is therefore +£338.40

 

As before, we'll keep this as a reserve in case of unexpected costs, and open a new Fundrazr campaign to cover the costs for the next month. The target will be £110 to cover Fundrazr fees, hosting and backups. The forum licence software renewal is due in November, this can be covered from existing funds.

 

The link to the new FundRazr page can be found HERE

 

Thanks to all who donated, it is very much appreciated.

[Guest Hooli]

Tried to donate, it's broken. I get this when it gets to the sign-in to Paypal page, tried it twice to be sure.

 

 

 

[Clanger]

Just worked for me.

[Guest Hooli]

Very odd, I'll try it again later then.

[Guest Hooli]

Still failing for me.

[Stanky]

Thanks for letting me know Hooli, it all seems to be verified and happy, though Six_Cylinder had a similar issue last month which I don't think I ever pinned down...

[Guest Hooli]

Well it's not paypal as I just tried a card payment direct on FundRazr

 

[Stanky]

Hard refresh on the page? Its says the PP and bank account are both verified?

[Sheefag]

Worked for me.

[Guest Hooli]

Hard refresh on the page? Its says the PP and bank account are both verified?

 

Same result from Firefox & IE, so it's not a cookies thing as I never use IE except for testing stuff like this.

[Sheefag]

Mine was Paypal via Firefox.

[Stanky]

Thanks, I'll escalate to FR support now. Thanks Hooli.

[Guest Hooli]

Mine was Paypal via Firefox.

That was my first attempt. Then card direct to FundRazr on Firefox & repeat on IE.

 

FF v55.0.3 & IE v11.0.9600.18792 on W7 x64 fully updated if their support asks.

[privatewire]

Works for me, glad I managed to get in on time this month!

[Guest Hooli]

Still broke for me, guess I'll wait till next month.

[Stanky]

Thanks all for your contributions, and apologies Hooli. it seems to pick someone it hates each time and this time, it was you. I'll still keep on at FR support to try and work out why it takes umbrage with one person at random.

 

Target hit and campaign closed off. Thanks again all.
