4CxbqFxVnstmA Veteran Posted July 3, 2008 Veteran Share Posted July 3, 2008 hello!can some one tell me why are the subscription in USD are cheeper than in Euro? 1 year - $12,63 1 year - €10 10.00 EUR = 15.6936 USD Probably this is because the dollar has been falling against the euro for a long time, and they have not updated things to take that into account.

Emil Valsson Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Depends on nations I guess, for me the Euro is ALOT higher than the dollar in Iceland so it would be better for me to use USD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jingarelho Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 that would be even more expensive because i would have to pay the currency taxes to transform Euro in Dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corris Veteran Posted July 31, 2008 Veteran Share Posted July 31, 2008 The only thing that bothers me with the prices is that its listed at just below ?7 on Neowin and when I paid via Paypal I had to pay ?8 something. Not that I mind, but maybe the conversion on Neowin for the prices should be updated a bit:p:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted September 9, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 9, 2008 Yikes, I didn't even realize my subscription period has ended. Ugh! I have to wait 6-8 business days for PayPal to transfer enough funds from my Canadian bank account. Why is the price higher now? I paid $10.42 CAD for my original subscription and now it costs $13.99 CAD. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted September 18, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) Yikes, I didn't even realize my subscription period has ended. Ugh! I have to wait 6-8 business days for PayPal to transfer enough funds from my Canadian bank account. Why is the price higher now? I paid $10.42 CAD for my original subscription and now it costs $13.99 CAD. :s The prices have adjusted, Thanks :) WTF! It was $13.99 CAD on Sep 8 and now it's $15.03 CAD. Damnit, at first I transferred exactly $11.00 CAD because that's what I paid originally. The prices were different so I added another $3.00 CAD to make it $14.00 CAD. Now it costs $15.03 CAD which means I have to add another $1.03 CAD. That's another 6-8 days of waiting for the money to go through. Ugh, all of this just makes me feel like it isn't worth it. I highly doubt I'm going to renew my subscription if it goes over $16.00 CAD. :/ EDIT: Who wants to donate $1.03 CAD to me? I'll owe you back. I promise! :( Edited September 18, 2008 by Anaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just use Paypal and let it initiate the transfer once you've made your Paypal payment to Neowin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harreh Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 (edited) Yeah, you can use direct debit with PayPal (It'd be a bit rubbish otherwise). Edited September 22, 2008 by Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted September 30, 2008 Veteran Share Posted September 30, 2008 ^ How do I use "direct debit" with PayPal? :s Why do you have to make a transfer? Just use Paypal and let it initiate the transfer once you've made your Paypal payment to Neowin. I did that on the 19th and the payment just cleared on the 29th. That's 10 days of waiting versus 6-8 days if I transferred the exact amount myself. PayPal is way too slow. EDIT: Nevermind, I recently added a credit card to my PayPal account and now the money transfers are instant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
