Thanks everyone - we're back in the black again. For anyone who still has my old Smile account details (account number ending in 121), please drop me a PM so that I can give you updated details. That account will remain open for the time being, but I'd like to start moving things over. Thanks.

A button will appear at the top of the forum pages when we need funding; it disappears when we're in the black because we don't want PayPal getting a cut when we don't need donations.

Do you not avoid the fees if people make donations as a transfer to friends and family?

You can, and I've added a link in the first post, but that won't work for those wishing to pay using a card, and I've previously had hassles from PayPal where they froze my account whilst I explained why I was getting all these small payments, which is another reason why I discourage its use.

LOL Yes they did that to me too, because of the payments that I receive for RC Car "go faster" bits. They kept telling me that I had to send them a copy of my passport. And I told them to bog off. In the end it transpired that they would settle for a copy of my drivers licence as photo ID, even though it doesn't have a picture on it! Apparently they are now happy that I really am me and I'm not money laundering.

Hmm, I can't find any Paypal button or link. Is that because it's the green again? So say I just had my bills, payments and budget planning day and discover there's a trifle left for SROUK which I can't guarantee will still be there when it's in the red again?
Also, as a general remark: as long as the UK is in the SEPA-zone, bank transfer costs should be guaranteed to be zero, naught, nil. Though with that Brexit thingy I'm not sure how that goes or still is the case. The SEPA-zone is different from the EU, different from the Schengen zone, different from the EURO-zone, etc. So it's best to check for your country in all cases.
Personally, I'm willing to have a try with it, I'll be notified of any costs before committing the transfer.

The link disappears from the banner when we're in the green, but can still be found in the first post of this topic.

Donation sent. I will also continue supporting GTL side of the online racing with organized championships, new mod releases and keeping my own dedicated server as back up for unseen problems with the main server.
