| I was a subscribed member at the time, but I submitted the mobile site approx 6 weeks ago. So am I right in thinking that mobile sites are no longer eligible ? |

Mobile sites still qualify for free membership but they take longer as the verification process is not as straight forward as submitting a new fixed camera location
Have a look at these links

Mobile reports are eligible for lifetime membership, but you have to be first, it has to be verified and I believe it has to be sighted again by someone else. So it could take a while. But don't worry, it you qualify you will get it.
Have a read of this thread, entitled "Lifetime Membership Award Criteria - Please Read" and all the linked threads. |

Sorry if i'm asking this in the wrong place. I qualified as a Lifetime Member earlier this month having submitted some french cameras. My membership now expires in 2029 I think.
I just wondered when my status would change from Advanced to Lifetime Member please.

Shortly after you ask (it's not automatic and not all LifeTime Subscribers want the tag changed) and a Team Member spots it.... Just hang in there and it'll be done. |

Yes, it's usually a PM to Darren, but I think I saw recently that he's indisposed at the moment.
Hopefully, MaFt or another team member will do it for you in his place.

I have now changed your rank, as explained here and in the forum FAQ's, this is an Opt-In service and so has to be requested. We chose this route as whilst we wished to advertise the number of members who benefited from this offer, not everyone wished to overly display a Lifetime Member rank.
I've also removed the Lifetime member reference from your sig, 4-lines max is the limit and it's now superfluous anyway

Not indisposed as such, am currently in Dubai on holiday but I can manage simple tasks such as this whilst I sip a cold beer

I thought so - lucky you, but I was using MaFt's words from a recent post.
PS the sun is shining here too, although a mere 28șC (ish)

Darren, you need to get back from Dubai qiuckly!
They were playing about with your server and they broke the e.mail.
So can you finish that ice cold beer and get a flight back?

Stiring up an old thread here, but as I've submitted a number of locations of fixed and mobile cameras, how come I got an email saying that my membership was about to run out? I believe that I was the first to add the cameras - may be proven wrong though.
Anyone advise?
Thanks |
