For those looking for an anonymous, reliable & EASY way to pay for your VIP membership, try TrustCash. I just used it this week and it couldn't have been easier.
Click on the TrustCash button on the TER VIP page & it takes you to their website. No account needs to be created (you can if you want) just enter your email address, pick a bank location in your area from the list and generate the invoice. You have 4 days to make the deposit.
Next, take the cash to the Bank location you chose (you do not have to use a bank where you have an account), give them the cash and the account # printed on your invoice. This is a basically the account # for an account by Trustcash at the Bank. You get a receipt and--voila! You're done, no receipt to sign, etc.In a couple of hours TER will have you listed as a VIP member.
**Be aware if you print out the receipt to take with you, TER's web address is printed near the top & bottom**
Please feel free to share this info....the Visa Gift Cards which once worked fine seem to be the topic of discussion here frequently.
I needed extra assistance (I live in a secluded area), and sent an email which received ZERO response. A week later, I called and waited on hold for over a half hour, a woman finally picked up and sounded like she was drunk. She told me I had called the wrong office (it was the number on the site). On hold again. Not sure how long it was total. Finally , spoke with someone who emailed me instructions that were completely irrelevant to what I'd asked (plus the link they gave me did not work). I gave up at that point, rather than call again and be put on hold. Trust Cash is a great idea, but it's a new company and seems to need some tweaking and DEFINITELY needs to hire some qualified service personnel. I tried CC Bill instead, unfortunately my Visa was blocked from using it. I STILL haven't paid for VIP.
Hi piercedsailor; Sorry to hear about your problems with TrustCash.I used them today to renew my VIP, third time I've used them to do so. I've never had any issue and the VIP extension is done by the time I get home to check, I live five minutes from the bank I used. Not sure what extra assistance you needed? I just follow the directions on TER's VIP renewal page. You pick the bank location you'll use, print out the deposit info that has account number etc. and take it to the bank. There I handed it to a teller along with my cash and they took the info needed along with my money. I then got a deposit slip showing the deposit was made into such and such account and walked out. Just not sure how anything could be any simpler but then I don't know the particulars of your situation. I've never had to deal with anyone at TrustCash, thru email, phone or anything else. I just dealt with the TER form and a bank teller. Good luck getting it resolved. Perhaps TER could intervene on your behalf? They obviously have an incentive to have you as a VIP member. Regards......RR
than mailing money or using a personal credit card.
From what I have heard, new anti money laundering legislation has gone into effect recently and all gift credit cards are restricted from processing international transactions. Cards like Green Dot where your identity is verified and can be tracked might still work.
This is mainly to do with anti terrorism efforts but it affects us to.

Unfortunately it looks like your attempt to purchase VIP membership has failed due to your card being declined. Good news is that we have several other payment options that you could try.
