Tip Jar Update

Dear all,

Apologising for not keeping this page up to date.

Current balance in PayPal is £383.91

Current balance in NoChex cannot be confirmed at the moment - they have suspended the account through lack of activity(!). I just need to send the some ID to get it reactivated...

Thanks for the support everyone!

Gast = Flabbered [squared]

Hello one and all... this post is just to say thank you to everyone who has donated to the running of Platform27. To say we have been overwhelmed by everyone's generosity would be a MASSIVE understatement.

We have received so far a grand total of £265, which after deducting Paypal / Nochex fees, and the first month's bill leaves us £243.34 on hand.

That's enough for the next 20 months at our current level!  You are all absolute stars!

*applauds*

Several of you have said you'd like to be able to make a donation to support the costs involved in running this place, so in preparation for the upgrade, I've set these donation buttons up...
 
You'll be familiar with PayPal if you've ever used eBay... and NoChex lets you send money without having to sign up and create an account (but I believe it only works with UK cards)

The only downside for both of these, is that they charge a flat rate of £0.20 + approx 3%, so if you wanted to donate, say, £1 a month, Paypal or NoChex will grab about 23p of it... You might be better off doing a few months at a time, otherwise charges will gobble up a quarter of your donation every time.

Not that I'm trying to promote larger donations, of course!
