Yesterday I had my subscription suspended because my payment card had expired on 1Apr but no warning. I went to Firstgate and made a payment with another card but it still gave me a disabled status. I sent news.individual.net an e-mail and Bettina replied within 30mins and had reinstated me!

In the meanwhile I went to my ISP's news feed which took ages to download all the headers but worked, it also carries 95k usenet groups. The spam level in my normal ones was quite noticeable, I have reverted to news.individual.net now.

Did you join the pay service around when they started charging? If so then that is all falling due now. I've had the e-mails from Click 'n Buy in the last few days. Suggest you e-mail 'em they take their service seriously unlike many organisations these days.

Same here. Two friendly emails from Bettina and all was fixed. Firstgate don't seem to have sent out emails warning of CC expiry, as mine had.

As I registered with this e-mail address I'll bet any warning got trapped. Firstgate didn't seem to update my details but as I said Bettina seems to have given me the benefit of the doubt and it's working.
