Premium Membership to UKTrainSim.COM
Where do I go to Subscribe?
You click right here :), and then you accept my sincere thanks!
You can see the prices by clicking the above link too. Don't worry, you're not forced to
continue the process if you don't like the prices.
Next question, what does it get me?
There are no limits at all for user access to the file
library, you can download whatever you want, whenever you want and how
ever much of it you want for the duration of your subscription.
For subscribers we will also remove all the banner advertisement that is placed at the top of every page,
enabling you to browse the site unhindered.
We will aim to provide as much notification of changes as possible as well as provide as much extra value
for money to premium subscribers as we can, without detracting from the usefulness of the free portion
of the site.

An Atomic Premium account (which is what this is) gets you Premium subscriber access to all of
our sites for the same price, not just UKTrainSim - a full list of Atomic Systems websites can be found
at our main website http://www.atomic-systems.com/

If any of our users have any questions or suggestions regarding the Premium user scheme we are always
open to listen and we'll aim to give you an honest answer as quickly as possible in response.
Does this mean the free portion of the site will shrink and shrink?
Who can tell what the future holds - that scenario will only happen if the numbers of people subscribing is too
low and the site begins to use too much bandwidth. We are not aiming to become millionaires off this site,
we want it to cover its costs however as none of us can afford thousands of dollars a month in internet
bandwidth bills (we're already paying nearly two thousand dollars a month
so far).
We will aim to keep as much free as we can as long as we are supported in our efforts. If we don't receive
support then we'll start moving things into the subscriber only area, more as a means to cut down our bandwidth
utilisation than to garner more subscriptions (whether that happens as a side effect or not).
I'm sorry if this sounds harsh or cold but all I can say is, welcome to the real world, the DotCom revolution
has been and gone, we have no venture backing (and never have), this is coming out of our pockets and if it's
a choice between our houses and our websites, the choice won't be too hard to make.
On the up-side, having no venture backing means that we are entirely within full control of our own destiny
and our own choices. It means we can set our own policies and try to defy 'business' standards such as
exploiting customers. It also means there's nobody out there to pull the plug on us except us and that
will be a singularly more tough decision to make than anyone I think can imagine, suffice to say it ain't likely to
happen while Hell still contains fire and brimstone (well, and as long as the bank account has enough cash
in it to cover the server :) ).
What forms of payment are accepted?
Atomic Systems have partnered with WorldPay for the Premium subscription system. This means that you can make
your payments by Credit Card from anywhere in the world in UK Sterling, US
Dollars and European Euro's. Cards supported cover most of the
credit cards (except American Express), and most UK debit cards (Switch,
Solo etc).
We can also accept cheques sent via mail to our address - email us if you would like to use this option
and we'll forward our postal address on to you.
Remind me, where do I go to Subscribe?
You click right here :), and then you
accept our sincere thanks!
