Re: silver or not silver...that is the question..

Well, this thread is all very Melrose Place.

Karen, do you have an ABN or do you have an employed/husband/friend who would let you borrow theirs ?

If so, three months complimentary VA Gold membership is available through Pilot Gold. You thence need to accrue 80 status credits in the following three months to maintain gold for the next 12 months.

Or am I over complicating already complicated things ?


Where do I sign up for Pilot Gold ? I have an ABN but cannot find any information about this on the Velocity website. A link to the info would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: Just found the info on Velocity website " Clause 21.2.1 Selected Members who have not earned sufficient Status Credits to upgrade to Gold Membership may be offered Pilot Gold Membership by VRPL for a three month trial period (Pilot Gold Membership).

Hi strtrek,
If you ask around more, definitely will be, Peyton Place -(showing my age)- not Melrose Place!.
A miraculous thread. Sincere hope you recover from the flu quickly. Laid me low for nearly 3 weeks, in CAM off and on. Just Get better, and get GOLD.
cheers, PJ
