I hate it, but I did not renew my Pogo.com subscription. After a year and a half, my AOL special pricing of $24.99 was done and the renewal price would be $39.99.
Granted, I didn't have the $40 at the time to renew (would have about 4 days after the renewal date, but that would have been too late anyhow).
So, I was a member since November 2005 to March 2008. I now lost all the badges I had worked on ... games ranks ... the 4 million tokens I had saved up (for what, I do not know LOL).
I hate it. I know badges are just virtual images, but still. Just little personal victories.
Just hate that the two games my husband loved most, Tri Peak and Phlinx, can not be played by non-Pogo members.
Plus, and this is just my personal opinion, I just don't think a game site is worth $40/year. Perhaps if I had won something at least once.

I understand...but did you try doing the $5/month thing that might be easier to do for a bit I have...also when you renew your membership you still have all the stuff,badges,tokens stuff aleast I did when I finally renewed mine,and my sister too since she does lose hers alot.

babyangie,
Thanks for responding. So, you're saying that if, let's say 3 months later, I decide to renew my subscription all my badges and such will still be there? As long as I do not actually delete my pogo.com account?

there is a good chance yes...I mean as long as you don't delete your account....it didn't happen to my sister..I am unsure how long she went,until she decided to do the $5/month thing. So I am not 100% no,but you could find out whenever you have the extra $5 to do it for a month.....

Thanks so much for your help.
I know you pay more in the end by doing $5/month, but ... if hubby can still play Phlinx and Tri Peaks - it may be worth it *chuckles*

That sucks for you :(
I just started up an account there a month or so ago but haven't been there much the last few weeks.
I don't have the cash to do the subscription but I think all the extra things on there including the games look really cool.
