    Pretty sure it won't be adequate, as there is no way that I know of to input the subscriber number as a bypass of the card reader.

    No! Sure then 1 card could be used by multiple people and they'd sell very few annual subscriptions.

    Why is this a pain? It's just normal business where a card is required.

    :confused:
    It's a pain because I wanted to use it today.

    Well you should have bought it last week, fail to prepare, prepare to fail. Or you could have bought a 3 day visitor card today for use today.

    Awesome, I'll jump in the old delorean and sign up for it last week and it won't be a pain anymore. Thanks for sorting that out for me.

    You're moaning and whining about something that was totally in your control, you didn't bother reading up about it beforehand and you act like it's someone else's fault. It's not, it's yours.

    Moaning and whining? I said it was a 'bit of a pain'. And I didn't blame anyone. All I said was it was a 'bit of a pain'. The expression 'Cop yourself on' comes to mind mate.

    Let's be honest, I think you were a bit unrealistic in your expectations!

    Can't say it strikes me as particularly unrealistic to expect to be able to use a service from the date I start paying for that service. But as I say, it's just a bit of a pain.
