hello and greetings from a newbie.

I started of as most newcomers (i guess) with an unverified account. i played like this for a few days then decided i wanted to know how to do this and that... technical stuff, lsl and other bits n bobs so i decided to verify my account to gain access to the forums -and yes the upside is the sigunup bonus- :D. so i entered my paypal information, didnt want LL to have access to my CC info unless i needed to and according to the verification i didnt need to give it, it does say CC or paypal.

can anybody tell me if they still pay this bonus perhaps i need to register my CC insted of paypal ?:confused: ? thought id read some place that it takes a week for the first payment, not sure if thats for the stipends or the same for the bonus but its now been over a week and ive still not received anything. Well i was planning on using that + the money id won on tringo to buy my first land if i ever signed up for premium.

thanks for any help :cool:

Is your Paypal account verified? I believe it has to be. Hopefully somebody will confirm that. As for needing the money for first land if going premium...buy something else (assuming you resolve this issue) instead. The bonus you get when going premium more than pays for your first land. :)

yep paypal says Uk verified.... if i had paypal problems with an unverified accout would i still be able to get into the forums oh well that dosent matter as im in here now:p

oh i know the bonus for becoming premium more than pays for the first land but that money is already earmarked for other stuff. i love to spend what ive not got...
oh well might have to change plans :rolleyes:

I'm not entirely clear on this, so don't take my word for it, this is just what I've gathered in the fog of this type of info.

I believe, that the only way to get the verify bonus is to enter the info on actual sign up. If you wait to verify after the sign up page, you do not recieve it.
