In 2011 or 2012, i was late in making payment for renewal. i was then forced to sign up as a new member because i was making payment after the cut off date. so to make life easier for the CM, i signed up as a new member.
as i remember correctly, the cut off date for renewal is 31 Dec 2013, and today is the 29th. no call for renewal, unless 2014 no need to pay renewal fees la
. but i'm curious to see if those making payment after 31st, will they be asked to sign up as a new member? hopefully the rules are consistently applied.
