I believe some are hesitant to sign up because they are worried that, if their financial situation changes, they will be locked in forever.

Free Republic is not like AOL!

Every month, a few days prior to your donation day, you will receive the following notice:

"Dear monthly contributor,

Thank you for your monthly contribution to Free Republic!

This e-mail is a reminder that it is time for your next scheduled donation. Your donation amount of $XX.XX will automatically be charged to your credit card on X/X/2003.

If you would like to change your contribution information,
please visit our management tool at:

Thank you for supporting Free Republic.

Sincerely,

Jim Robinson and the Free Republic Fundraising Team"

Couldn't be easier and you have complete control of your donations. Give it a shot -- you won't be sorry!

I'm a monthly donor and have been since the last freepathon. I don't have to think about it, I get the email as mentioned and like my tagline says...It's painless!

Hey!!! I thought we were SUPPOSED to give monthly.

You know, sort of like a subscription, maybe?

When I lurked, I didn't FEEL obligated. You didn't know me. I didn't know you!

But the minute I started posting..........well...........I felt obligated to PAY for my habit.

That's not to say, that lurkers couldn't pay a little utility dues.
Come on Freepers........empty those coin boxes!
You probably have at least $5.00 a month in your car ashtray!!!

Thanks Free Republic, you've been there for me and my family!!!

Hugs and kisses to you, JimRob!

God Bless Free Republic and all she stands for!!!
Or should I say he?

Maybe someone has brought this up already, but some people might be wondering what happens if they are banned. How difficult would it be to stop your card from being charged if you decided to stop supporting the site financially in that circumstance?
