(42 posts)Welcomes from another (formerly really cheap) Canadian to the real DU group.
My conscience got the better of me several years ago and I was subscribing yearly to support their great work- but then I got scammed on PayPal.
PayPal refused to acknowledge that I was a victim so I started to boycott them. That lasted until renewal time for my subscription came due. DU only accepts PayPal or cheques. Cheques take forever to process from Canada to an American bank. Ack!
Forced to go back to using PayPal but this time I put it on renew automatically so access wouldnt suddenly be limited. DU Lounge is one of the forums you cant access without a subscription and I really missed that till Id renewed.
Trust me, a $100 (or more) subscription is worth ten times the $480 that The Globe and Mail charges for a yearly subscription.
