Just Wondering
I own a Premium group grandfathered in at a $10/month payment which I have been paying out of my pocket.? Yesterday, after Mark gave us the ability to have Sponsors, I announced it to my group and the Sponsoring started coming in.? Soon, there was enough in my reserves to make a yearly payment of $110.? Since my due date is the 17th of the month, I went ahead and switched from monthly billing ($10) to yearly billing ($110).? The $110 was deducted immediately from my reserves and applied to my yearly billing.? Here's my question/concern.? I notice that in the Switch Billing to Monthly Billing now indicates I would be billed $20 per month rather than the original $10 per month should I make the switch.? I don't envision having to switch back to monthly because my members have been very generous and we are well on our way to the next yearly payment.? I'm just wondering why my grandfathered group @ $10 per month or $110 if billed yearly would suddenly change to $20 per month or $220 per year because I switched my billing period.

I read Mark's explanation? but it doesn't make sense to me.? Changing your billing period should not affect your yearly subscription rate.? If I paid my mortgage for a full year and then the next year I went back to paying on a monthly basis, it would not change my mortgage amount.? Sounds like a rip off to me? JMHO Janice B |

Switching back from yearly to monthly does, or at least that's the way I read it. Sounds like a rip off to meI don't think he's trying to cheat anybody. The policy does not affect your current payment plan. Just stick with $10/month and you should be fine. Regards, Bruce Check out the groups.io Help Center?and?groups.io Owners Manual |
Too late.? Since I already had enough in Sponsor donations, I went ahead and changed to a yearly payment schedule and paid $110 for 2021.? That's when I noticed that the window where it says change to monthly now showed $20 per month would be charged rather than the $10.? I don't plan on changing back to monthly since enough Sponsored donations have come in to take us thru 2024 and beyond.? One member sponsored a whole year.? I have turned off the Sponsor button because I didn't want to accumulate too many years ahead.?? Janice B |
