    Not at the moment, but if you wanted to, you could use a 3V card, works just like a credit card.:)

    Was considering subscribing, having 2nd thoughts now tho after being threatened by An Citeog of being banned for:

    calling kilkenny a 'dirty' team (apparently very offensive)

    advising a girl that there could be dirtballs on the terrace, so the stand might be better to watch a match

    I'm kinda shocked that sex and sexuality are both restricted. I fully understand why sex is restricted but sexuality is an inherent trait, often present from birth and should not be treated like something that is taboo. Discussions on sexuality need not be discussions about sex, they are not one and the same. There may be young people on here wishing to speak out about their sexuality in a safe and anonymous way and not feel as though they should hide this.

    There is also an LGBT forum, fetishes are part of a person's sexuality.

    Subscribing does not protecting you from being banned and none of the mods are staff.

    If you have an issue with the ban then you can appeal it. Here is the how to

    If the OP is using Beta skin the subscribers forum doesn't show up in the system menu Thaedydal, only as what I've posted above.

    I only know that because I use Beta, the OP might be using it too, so I thought I'd post that info as a back up to your reply.

    AFAIK, no it's not.

    This came up before and a 'gift' sub was talked about but I don't think anything ever came of it. :)

    AFAIK you don't need one any more. You can link paypal to your bank account and do it that way. Not 100% sure if it works outside of the USA though.

    You have 5 options that I can see:

    1) 3V
    2) Wirecard
    3) Prepaid Mastercard
    4) Ulster Bank Visa Debit card
    5) PayPal top up.

    Re#4: All you have to do is open a current account.
    Re#5: Click "My Account" and then "Top Up Account". You basically make a transfer to a PayPal account and they then credit it to your PayPal balance. Hope this is some help!

    Wirecard can be a bit of a pain to set up. They charge €1 per deposit. To deposit funds you need to make an international money transfer to their German account. It's best done by internet banking and I transfer using BOI's 365online. It takes a few days for the deposit to show up in your account also. For example I transferred money on Monday and it showed up today.

    I remember having to verify my account a few years back too. I needed to fill out a form and get it endorsed by a solicitor and send it back to them. Not sure if they're still doing this as it was a long time ago.

    HELP!! I made a bit of a prat of myself subscribing! Here's what happened: I took out a one month subscription on the 22 of October that would obviously run out on 22nd of this month. I'm just after paying for a three month subscription. I thought it would add on or top up to the 22nd of this month meaning I had until the 22nd of February. Unfortunately the three months has started from now! :o:o

    I feel silly. Can it be adjusted so that the three months start from the end of my current subscription please? Or can I be refunded so that I can wait until the 22nd to subscribe for three months then? Please help! I feel more a prat than anything.

    I wouldn't worry guys, they're normally pretty good at sorting this out (not the first time it's happened).

    I guarantee that you won't lose out in any way. :)

    (if it doesn't get rectified, post back here and I'll have a rant at the admins on your behalf ;))

    I sent an email to hello@boards.ie. Even if it doesn't get sorted at least the few quid is going to a good cause. Just wish I had known that subscriptions run concurrently and not consecutively.

    OK, I've found out that the admins don't deal with this, the Community Managers do so I've left a post in their forum alerting them to this.
    Dav or Darragh will deal with it when they get a chance. :)
