Trade licences?

[Watson]

Hi,

I currently own 3 licences (I think, can't find my log in details for original site)

I haven't used them for years now, so I am thinking of loading up 1 of my sites again, but I am, wondering. Can I trade in old licences to get a new year of support??

Heh, don't ask don't get and all that.

Now off to the hosting forum to see what people recommend server wise

Cheers in Advance

Your asking a lot from a company that doesn't even listen to its customers.

The simple answer is no you can not do that.

Additionally your old licenses have likely been long expired for upgrades/support so you will need to buy the current product license, like all of us who upgraded to 4.x did.

Sell two of your licences on the open market,keep one and upgrade it to a vB4 licence.

That is if he even gets much for them. I've seen the market FLOODED with vB licenses in the last few months.

I thought you had to have a valid licence before you could sell it? Wouldn't I need to renew the support, and then flog them?

It used to be the case that you needed a currently active license however we now allow expired owned licenses to be transferred.
