Well, this was a bit of a surprise...

I had promised to pony up for a Premier Membership when Ron fixed the search function, which he appears to have done. So I went to my PayPal account and discovered that $20 had been transmitted via PayPal today. Funny thing is, I didn't know about this or expect it - I always thought I had to manually approve any outgoing PayPal transaction. I don't have a problem with this, per se, because I was going to renew my subscription anyway, but I was surprised that the funds had been automatically transferred without my knowledge. This must be related to how the subscription was set up in the first place, presumably as a recurring annual charge. I guess I didn't read the fine print; not the first time that's happened.

Secondly, when I looked into this a few weeks ago, I thought the Premier Membership was $100, and it is now listed as $200. Did the cost of a Premier membership go up or is my memory incorrect?

Ron, I'd prefer to turn off any automated annual renewal of dues and authorize them manually. Do you know how I do this?
