view profile

willgame says:

So, really, Russia is out of paypal.
And i cant use easy way to pay for PRO.
But flickr have Alternative payment methods. So how it works?
you wrote:
please make sure your order includes:
Your Flickr screen name,
What you'd like to order, and for whom,
The primary email address associated with your account, and
A contact daytime phone number.

And what? you call me and what next?
And it is easy to send th information buy e-mail, not by usual post. Why i cant send you info buy email?

i can pay with webmoney service, and i can pay from russion bank account.
is it way?

Werewolf Puppy says:

You can mail your payment using a Draft or International Money Order. You need to send in the email address, daytime phone number with the mail order. Send the payment and the information to the Canadian address.

I don't know anything about Draft orders. Perhaps your bank or post office has more information about buying Draft and International Money orders in The Russian Federation. In the United States of America, I can purchase an international money order for Canada for only $3.25 USD.

I believe that Flickr.com will call you if they have questions about your order.

Bye

Hi willgame -

And what? you call me and what next?

You put the information you listed above in an envelope, along with some money in the form of an international money order made out to Ludicorp Research & Development for the cost of your order. (US dollars please!)

Then you put your order in the post, and send it to:

Ludicorp Research & Development Ltd.
P.O. Box 4231
Toronto, ON, M5W 5P3
CANADA

We can't accept your money via email i'm afraid :)

(And we're planning on more payment options in future.)

So, George,
Russian banks don`t give intarnational money orders or Drafts. It is no way.
And as i know Canadian banks not used in direct money transfers to accounts, as Russian banks do.

What abou Western Union transfers?
Can you recive it?

heather, if our banks not use money orders, moreover, post is not use it.
Money orders are excluded in Russia transfers.

Lucamar, i saw some russions at flickr, but they are not Pro with account. There are some russion abroad, but i cant trust them yet.

heather, so, what about Western union transfers? i check if they work in Voncuver city and let you know.

Try asking the people from Russia in any of this groups. I have found some people from there but I'm not sure it would be good netiquette exposing them here and I can't understand enough Russian to consult them.

Unfortunately, our payment methods remain the same, PayPal or sending a payment to the address in Toronto listed on the alternate payment page. I wish I had better news.

heather, as far as I understand flickr.com now is a part of Yahoo, is there any way to pay for PRO via Yahoo!Wallet?

Not yet. We're not integrated with the Yahoo! mother ship in a way that enables wallet payments.

rushills says:

Heather, I understand, but it's pity, because even having checked credit-card we cannot afford get PRO service.

Well, the only thing we can do - to wait for other options if there will be any...

Thank you for reply :)

Indeed, I do. Apologies. Missed this over the weekend.

There was Help Topic recently that covered how Russians were purchasing PRO accounts -- I'll ask Serguei if he remembers where it was.

Otherwise, I wish I had better news. We're still working with PayPal and our alternate methods as the way to PRO accounts.

i tried to use that method, but at the moment i can't say either it failed or not.

i sent the money a week ago and it seems that Flickr didn't receive it yet.

Tengis says:

I am from Mongolia and would like to upgrade my account to a pro account but haven't been able to. First of all Mongolia is out of PayPal and they wouldn't accept credit cards because Mongolia is not in the country list. More payment options is absolutely needed in the near future, because flickr users are all around the world.

Paypal wont accept my Virgin Credit card, so I mailed an IMO from Australia to Ludicorp 2weeks ago to renew my pro account (which expires soon). Does Ludicorp notify people when the funds have been received? And secondly, once the funds are received how long does it take to process? Im kinda worried my payment has gone missing.

5days later- now im really worried... im off to the post office to see if i can trace the IMO. what a pain in the ...!

heather says:

a moment captured, for what the process is, it can take an amazingly long time (2 - 4 weeks).

I've added a month of PRO to your account to give some wiggle room for the process to complete itself.

a moment captured says:

first of all thanks for the replies vasta and heather (btw where's the cat?)... and secondly, thanks for the extra month because i panicked and put a stop payment on the IMO. it hadnt been drawn against yet and the postal staff gave me the impression it could safely be assumed lost in transit. i got a full refund except for the fee they charge to draw the order and the postage paid, so im only down about 10 bucks.

yes 2 - 4 weeks is an amazingly long period of time. i had no idea it takes that long. i'll send another IMO tomorrow and express (registered) post it so it should arrive safely, and will be easier to trace if it doesnt.

there really should be more payment options. the whole "unknowness" of this method is frightful.
