I don't understand you question well.. but see, you order in mu mo the CD and you pay with your credit card the price of the CD (3150Y) and 500Y for the shipping to Tenso... TA/mumo says that we should get it the 13th of april, so around that date Tenso will receive it, and email you saying they got your package and will ask you if you want them to ship it now or if you want to wait for more items to arrive.

Then if you say yes they will tell you the price for the service and shipping fee. They have your CC or paypal registered so when you say "yes, I agree to pay this so send it to me" they will automatically get the money from your CC/paypal ^^

They will wait for you to say yes and agree on the price to send it and get the money. And they won't ask you to pay the CD again. Their rules say that they won't accept any package that is not paid yet (you know, some time you can buy something and say that youw ill pay it when it arrives at your home) so when they receiver sth they know that you paid it ^^

hmmm I see!! you know, I couldn't get any in the year I've been TA member because of my first middleman... ¬¬

then we only can wait and see ^^ But I'm sure that at least for the member card they don't ask anything ^^ And all this year there have been some TA mags, and even if my middleman didn't ship them to me, I didn't get any e-mail asking me to comfirm the shipping to him...

[miroro]

aww.. i want to join now, but first i must save!!!
muchas gracias aura!! eres la mejor!! jaja

"helpful"?

This thread should be stickied and your profile should be updated to Queen Of AHS Initiate.

Honestly I love you so much for explaining all of this
I don't have money for it yet.. but when I do, I'm sooo doing this!

I don't know if its still that way, but I do remember something like that in the past. Meaning that you have to actually reply to something they send you before you will actually receive anything. Which means that actually this method will not work unless you don't mind paying just to access the website but not get any goods in the mail. I guess I will find out soon since I registered with my own personal address here in Japan.

well, i got a mail like this, to tell me to contact them, to send me the membercard and strap, which i did reply to.

then i got my membercard send to my middleman.
so if someone never reply or don't know how to reply, what will happen?

[Nayaichigo]

Yaay mom was kind enough to sponsor my membership so I'm TA member now too (^o^)~
Once more thank you so much for this guide walking.proud!!!!!!!!!!!

QUESTION! Next year if/when I renew the membership will the membership number be the same or does it change??? D:

[ayuMIV]

Unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable!!! I don't believe my eyes! It's all so simple to become a TeamAyu member overseas!?!??

Hmm, there's nothing here though... Just says you'll be receiving your membership card and a strap, and to check that these 2 items are in your package when it arrives. If anything is missing, THEN contact TA through the given address.

[CZECHayu]

oh that's really amazing. thank you for all this work <3

love you ~~~

when I'll have time and more money I'll be there.

It will be the same ^^

Woo, can I ask new members something? Is the number already +200.000?? LOL I'm +180000, and I remember someone here being around +190000, I think... In TA history a lot of people left TA and their number is not used again so it's not like there's almost 200K TA... I remember ayu sayign there were more tan 70K 2 years ago I think... hehe

Sure!! Ask if you have any problem!! Sure, if not me, some other TA member will be able to help ^^

and yeah LacusClyne, I also got that email, it only says to contact them if int he package there's something you don't get, the card or the strap ^^ You know, you scared me XDD cause I never noticed that I had to send them an e-mail XD

[SunshineSlayer]

^ It's not an e-mail that you would send - it's a physical mail from the address you registered with. A lot of things in Japan are that way, like you have to send a postcard from your address for several different services in order to confirm that your address is actually a real address in Japan. Many fanclubs are like that too. However it seems Ayu's is not or it has at least recently changed.

I'm little over 199.000, so I think the number will be 200,000 soon enough!

[relmy]

Question! walking.proud - you said you used an online credit card that you top up? What are these like, because I don't have a credit card, only a debit and TA don't like PayPal!

Or for anyone who's used one of these "online top-up" credit cards, help please!

[aura~]

^well... my bank offers this they call it "cyber credit card" because they know that sometimes the only way to pay in internet is with credit card, and maybe people don't want to write the number of the one where you have all your money... so, they give you this one that it's only to use on the internet, you have your number and everything like the normal CC ^^ Then, me, in the website of my bank, I log in with my ID and password and, online, I put the money I need to this cyberCC from my account ^^

You should ask your bank if they have something like this ^^

oh, I see!! well seems like TA is not like this, luckily ^^ because if they don't do it with the member card, they won't ask it for the mags and so ^^

uwaaaaaaaaa!!! almost there!! hahaha they should do a party to celebrate that in all TA history there have been 200.000 members (even if they aren't now XD)

[relmy]

^ Oooh thank you, I will find out from my bank. Or I might just wait until May, when I'll be able to get a credit card (oh not a good idea...) and I should have the money then. But wow, you answered so quickly~~ thank you!!

[Masamune]

I wish to become a member ...but sadly my nihongo is not very good...xDDD

Thanks so much anyway...It will very hepful to a lot of people...

[GRACE]

A debit and a credit card work essentially the same way. Except a debit takes money directly out of your account, and a credit card pays on credit, and then you pay the credit card company at a later date, or through months of bills/interest.

[aura~]

yeah, but I have only debit cards that takes money from my account, and I don't like credit cards cause without thinking you keep buying and buyin because it doesn't say you don't have money, and at the end of the month you have a big surprise LOL

So with this one I have I charge it at the moment with the real money I have and I'm sure that they won't take more money than the amount I'm charging on the card ^^

[waterballoon]

COOL BEANS. I'm gonna join TA once I grow old!!! Thank you so much
