39. I have, and there's nothing there to click except 'renew now'

Feb 2014

It gives my 'Star membership status', which is three pieces of info - that I am a star member, the expiration date, and time until expiration (with the renew now button.) It also contains my 'purchase history', no buttons to click.

In other words, the only thing I can do about my membership status is to renew my star, and if I click that, I only get a list of star membership benefits, and links to 4 different methods of payment. I have renewing payment, but both the recurrent options demand a paypal account, which I don't think I actually used. I have one, but I've never actually used it because I couldn't activate any of my debit cards. I usually donate to DU through Amazon, so perhaps it's there I need to go to stop the recurring payments.
