well get this, I'll try to explain so keep with me. I first got a .mac account when I first got my mac back in April 06 had it for a year and didnt renew.
then back in May this year I signed up for another trial using a different user name, after the trial I didn't renew again...........
so just now I was checking my system preferences and mobile me is there, I went to me.com put in my original username and password and it says my
Expiration Date is April 21st 2009??????????????
went into my account info and it says I have an AMEX card and gives a number i"ve never heard of although my address and phone number are correct??

Mobile Me Extensions Arriving

Just wanted to let people know that the extensions have started being applied. My account has been given the 30 day extension promised a couple of weeks ago. You might want to check you accounts to see if yours have been applied.

Damn, I don't remember how long I had left!

Though it does seem to look like more than I remember.

The trial is 60 days. So if you had a 90 day trial they gave you 30 days extra (like they said they would).
Yes, and promptly lost my 30 days extra when I signed up for the service (in addition to losing my trial time). My billing ends 1 year after the date I signed up for the trial. This means the trial counted towards my 1 year subscription, and in my case, the free month was only an additional month for the trial, which also counted towards my 1 year subscription.

So, my comment isn't as much a complaint as it is a warning. When users turn their trial accounts into paid subscriptions, it's likely they'll find they only have 9 months left of paid service. So whether you convert it now, or wait it out, it won't make a difference.

The reason I paid up was to test out the family plan. It's definitely not worth the money now, but I'm sure they'll keep working on it.

My free trial still says it runs out on the 14th September, which it always has. So no 30 day extension for me yet :(
