Many people have found that an account can be reactivated if they log back onto the account and pay for it. If there was a test account associated with the account, that account is usually reactivated as well.

Current subscription fees:-

US - $79.95 for annual membership -- a 33% savings!

79.95 US dollars = 39.16 British pounds sterling

US - $49.95 for 6 months -- a savings of over 15%!
UK - Six-monthly subscription: £28.99 every six months - Save over 30%

49.95 US dollars = 24.46 British pounds sterling

US - $9.95 per month
UK - Monthly subscription: £6.99 every month

9.95 US dollars = 4.87 British pounds sterling

Exchange rate: 0.489764
Rate valid as of: 15/10/2007



$79.95 = £33.23
£49.99 = $101.87
$49.95 = £24.51
£28.99 = $59.08
$9.95 = £4.88
£6.99 = $14.24

Funny Thku for tht, but my eight year old again, showed me the account is still ther with lots of tempting suscribe now notices rofl.

So this leaves the dilemna do u activate a third account whilst disney transferes toons ultimately lining their pockets further.

I really think Disney should look at this. Might be interesting to find out how much others around the world are paying for the pleasure.

I do know tht .com are much much much stricter on their Bans. I always say how old I am and where I am from, I dont even so much as get a warning. A friend on .com tells another mutual friend where I am from and gets a three day ban!! She wouldnt hav known right, less I told her in game.

I also think as it is a family game that as an adult I hav a responsibility to let the kids Know just tht. Tht I am an adult.

So pay less money, thinks, risk continuous three day bans hmmmmmm.

Pay more money, continuous uninterrupted play, just a slap on the wrist now and again in my email, ponders ............

What to do I'm confused .........


Have a gr8 day in town, smile and the world smiles with ya

I know that this isnt on subject, but just mentioning what you said about Disneys US site being stricter.. heres one for you. A US pal and I were having a conversaions about something perfectly innocent and she was banned for three days, they sent her the transcript.

She emailed them back and asked why she was banned and I wasnt (I told her to), and they lifted her ban! Just goes to show that Disney US are just banning anyone they please, and then saying (as a rule) "oh we dont have to explain our actions".

The conversation (shamefully) was about dishwashers ooh errrr bad stuff eh. (Im such a mum ha ha).

I dunno Sally it was on subject, My main purpose after reading pages and pages of posts in regard to y can't .co.uk have test and toptoons was to show members that if we want to we can.

Anyhow anything in terms of .co.uk vs .com is good, it's worth knowin if we swap over what the diferences are.

Funny as well only just this week a friend received a ban due to a conversation between her and myself. Now in this conversation without going into details, (I wouldnt encourage kids to break the rules so wil not indulge what we did.) We both knew at the time tht we were breaking rules and took tht risk. Now I definately broke them as did she. They must have looked at the whole conversation to issue my friend the ban. I received nothing not even a slap on the wrist via email. Yet my action was the same as hers. It wasnt about dishwashers!

So yes .com are definately alot stricter and more often than not from posts are banning over really silly stuff. As my friend said in our case it's good they are protecting the kids and she had no upset that she got told off and banned for our actions. I too agree

Yes we brits do spell things a little differently, for instance, we spell barley.. barely, and we spell werid.. weird. Ah well.

May I apologize on behalf of my country for our English being well, so English. ;-)
So whad a what?
And barely is not a word but barley is.
Also, English and English are kind of two different languages in some ways.
Well, I shouldn't really be in this forum because look at my location and avatar. The country I live in is sooo cool, so American. Now I will speak in Japanese:
だから、どのようなものですか?
しかし、ほとんどの単語や大麦ではありませんがします。
また、日本語と英語の種類の異なる2つの言語では、いくつかの方法があります。
そうね、私が実際にすべきではないため、このフォーラムを見て自分のアバターの場所とします。その国に住ん でいる私はとても涼しいので、アメリカ人だ。

Barely <adverb>

1 : in a meager manner : plainly <a barely furnished room>
2 : scarcely, hardly <barely enough money for lunch>

Please don't come into UK section of forums, saying we don't know how to speak our own language.

US and other forms of Modern English are adapted from Old English, and US is more adapted then others, making lots of words different, with spelling variations.

You should do more history reading.
