drfair52 Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Hi. I just purchased the 5gb version of VIP Acceleration but when I restarted BitComet 1.25 it still is showing up as gray on the task list. Is there a step after purchasing that I have to take to get it working? Let me know. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drfair52 Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks. I followed all of those steps but still get the "not activated" message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kluelos Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 A little more information would probably help. Precisely what did you try? What happened when you tried? Was it different from what you expected and what the instructions said should happen? How? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasy Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Do you have multiple CometID accounts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfair52 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 I think I might have multiple accounts, but when I purchased the bandwidth I used the same id as the one I am logging onto to BitComet with. Basically, I did everything the help page said to do to purchase the bandwidth. I then opened BitComet and logged in with my CometID, opened a torrent for download, selected the gray VIP icon, the window appeared saying it was querying the server, and after a delay got the message "Your account hasn't active VIP Acceleration." I double checked to make sure that my purchase has gone through and it had. What am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy26 Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 Hi drfair52, can you please PM me your username? The one you used to purchase VIP Acceleration, I'll check it for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtthwlogan Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I am also having this problem. I purchased the 10g for $5, followed the directions one the VIP Acceleration help page, logged into bit comet, clicked on the gray VIP icon to speed up my download but it still says my VIP Acceleration service has expired. I confirmed payment through pay pal but it doesn't show up on my purchase or usage history. I do not have any other accounts. Its been more than a week since I purchased this, was looking forward to trying it. Also on bit comet home page it says "The development team is upgrading VIP Acceleration currently, some users may be affected during the upgrading process. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused" this message has been there since my purchase over a week ago is this issue gonna be fixed anytime soon or should I just get my money back?

Bouds Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I sent lucy a post but I do not know how to check if she has responded. Also I still get the same error. I too wanted to try this feature, when I read that free trial wasn't available to all users I bought the 5 dollar package (to see if I had enough acceleration to purchase the 10 dollar one).

ckemp32 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I have the same problem as everyone else in this thread it seems. I'm using the latest 64 bit Beta 20110601. I purchased the 10Gb subscription and it was working fine. I then purchased the 100Gb subscription and now all my torrents just sit there and don't download even if I turn VIP acceleration off. I have about 8 torrents waiting to download and I know that a couple of them download okay in other clients. My usage shows as 23Gb downloaded (have no idea where that figure came up - I calculate 15Gb tops) and 80Gb usable. I've changed no settings so the problem has to be with the account or the client.

The UnUsual Suspect Posted June 12, 2011 Share Posted June 12, 2011 Hi, the account usage amount reflects the total of all tasks that VIP is enabled on, not the amount downloaded so far. Please send your comet ID and transaction details to zerojinn, she will check to make sure your account was credited correctly. If so, then we will help you with any client related issues.
