Sorry, I'm old-fashioned. I have a bank account which also uses cheques. The method isn't broken so I've no intention of fixing it.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

I've used the Paypal link to renew membership this afternoon.
It seems to work.
I've had confirmation that the money has been sent but so far not an email confirming
payment.

I don’t think you get a confirmation email, Simon.

I got a confirmation email from paypal when I paid for the 2022 season of the Mesemb Study Group yesterday. Or were you thinking of a confirmation email from the BCSS in this case?

Just renewed with Paypal, no problem. Is this thread just a clever way by the BCSS to get us to renew promptly?

If it is a clever ploy it is working, I have also renewed using PayPal.
