nobody can buy a premium account at the moment, we're having issues that we're trying to resolve. It's not specific to UK users.

I dislike the silly points system and think it should be done away with.

Points system is seriously good... It's free... Dude, sometimes... people actually need to buy things to download them... This site actually lets you download for free

How does imaginary points pay your bills, i assume the premium members fees do that.

the points limit the bandwidth we use, which in turn limits the amount we have to pay in bandwidth fees. The premium member fees then pay the bills.

you're going to be lower priority than people that can't get gsm. sucks but that's one of the many downsides of using mobile broadband.

Paypal is very strict about it and users can be banned for using it.

So why can't you just setup a dummy account with Paypal and we as users send a gift, pay for "services", whatever and in the payment, put our usernames.That is how we do our NFL elimination pool that has about 600 members and 1 guy holds the money each year.

we tried that, that account got shut down too.

Hit the porn ad route. That goes got to generate enough money to cover the cost of bandwith. Maybe not full blown download speed or perhaps a series of ads that have to be watched and such for each download and cap the download to 1 at a time. Might be effective enough. Sorry I am spit balling here.

ads don't pay well these days. download speed is already limited to 250kB/s and 1 at a time for none premiums and has been for years.
