Hi. I just joined the forums today and ordered a Premium Membership. My order status says "completed" as well as "payment received," but I'm still unable to access the Writer's Workshop.

Not sure whether I'm supposed to keep waiting or if there's a bug/I missed another step. Just wanted to check.

Thanks.

Hi, Andy. Welcome to The Cult.

Your order status shows as completed in our reporting, too. But for some reason, your Premiumhood did not activate or cruise the neighborhood.

I dropped in a new engine and fitted your ride with killer rims, AM/FM/DVD in supersonic stereo, and a blue halo aliens-have-landed style ground FX kit.

Enjoy.

It may be an antiquated template, but Republic of Ireland isn't represented either, it falls under Ireland also. I don't believe there's any way around it it at this time, no.

can't you just say you're from elsewhere? like Ireland, instead of Northern Ireland?

no sorry once you choose the place as in ireland/greatbritain then county is a required feild - im from Ireland but because its the Republic of Ireland the other 6counties ie Co antrim/armagh/down/fermangh/tyrone/derry/ dont exist on that list - so it wont allow me to join the workshop - politically thats part of the uk at the minute hence the reason they dont come up when i click Ireland -- no way round it 4 me at dmin cause its arequired field ;(

I tried to import it, but there's no option for Northern Ireland. I'm really sorry. The only thing I can suggest is creating a invoice for you to bypass that county list.

dont worry it's not your fault - but it may be an issue for like future people from here as well- it would be best to add them to the Ireland section - cause Co Tyrone/armagh etc are there - i have a visa to pay now does - something get posted to my house or could i put in Ireland and co dublin to bypass the required fields but still get in??

Hunter, I think you can make it go just by putting in whatever nearest combination of choices into the fields that will work; otherwise, when Mirka says "send you an invoice," she isn't talking about posting something to your physical mailing address. She's talking about sending you an invoice by e-mail. Then, all you have to do is respond and pay the billing amount through Paypal. No need to wait on anything in the mail. You just need to let her know.
