Paid LiveJournal accounts

Apr 18, 2024 01:01

I'm very frustrated by the fact that, presumably due to anti-Russian sanctions, I am presently unable to renew my paid LiveJournal account. Although I can still post as normal, I am unable to upload any more photos to the LJ Scrapbook as I long ago exceeded the upload-quota for free accounts.

Option that's not on your poll, which I've done several years in a row now: try to make the payment, it won't go through, and then I contact LJ support, tell them that, and they give me another year of "paid" account for free.

This is what I've done as well. It's annoying though bc i want more userpics and i currently can't add anymore. But they usually renew the stuff i already have. I've also had my account for a really long time so...

I'm not so much bothered about userpics, but it's very frustrating to me that I can't upload anything to the Scrapbook or reorganise the albums while I'm stuck with a free account.

If LJ grants me a paid account extension while I'm unable to make a payment, will I still be unable to upload photos to the Scrapbook?

I'm going to see what I can do about it shortly. There's no adequate substitute for LiveJournal that I know of, and one thing's for sure: Farcebook isn't it. If I had a fully-functioning LJ account, I wouldn't feel tempted to waste so much time on and get so wound up by that dreadful site!

Who do I contact, and what do I need to say? I haven't seen any information about this.
