Last night, My first year ran out. Tonight, tried to renew, BUT. It seems SMC only accepts PayPal as a form of payment. (last year, I used my Visa to pay.) I don't have a PayPal account, nor does my flip phone receive text messages. Yes there are those of us who aren't connected to the world of today. Because their isn't an alternative method to pay, I guess it means that the gods in charge over at SMC no longer want me and the others like me. And not just no, but HECK (being polite) no, I'm not creating PayPal account. Recently in a thread about a motor, I suggest that OP join SMC, to which he replied "They only accept PayPal."
