- InterActive supported software scheme 29th November 1998
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Since 1993 InterActive has offered a convenient way to register
- non-commercial software. The scheme was launched by Joe Connor to
- encourage 'foreign' authors to produce and support English language
- versions of their software AND to encourage UK users to register their
- software.
- Currently InterActive attracts registrations from all over the world and
- currently supports over 50 non-commercial titles from dozens of different
- authors with thousands of registered users.
-
- The authors and translators deserve your support so if you're regularly
- using any unregistered software please register today.
-
- What's new?
- -----------
- Running InterActive takes time - lots of it. The time taken composing
- registration letters and manually duplicating disks to send out in the
- post could be spent working with the TransAction crew to translate and
- bring you more software to choose from.
-
- Many InterActive customers are online and all the InterActive software is
- available on-line so we've decided now is the time to encourage email only
- registrations by offering reduced registration prices across the board for
- email only registrations. If you'd like a registration letter and master
- disk it's no problem - you simply pay a pound per registration taking the
- fee back up to its original price.
-
- The currently supported software is:

-
- Country specific information
- ----------------------------
- Europe: Post Office GiroBank money orders or Eurocheques are the best
- way to pay.
- France: For some reason I'm getting a number of local cheques (i.e.
- written in Sterling but drawn on a French bank address.
- I cannot accept these because my bank charges an expensive fee
- for these (more than the cheque is usually worth!) - please use
- the Post Office GiroBank system.
- Canada: The Canadian Post Office can issue money orders in *Sterling*.
- These are hassle free and inexpensive!
- Australia: Australia Post only sell overseas money orders in US dollars so
- please get an International Bank Draft made out in Sterling
- drawn on a UK bank address.
- NZ: Please visit your Post Office and get a money order made out in
- *Sterling*.
- USA: I can't accept local cheques.
- If a day trip to a Canadian post office is out of the question
- :-) an International Money Order made out in Sterling (please
- add extra £5 to order total) drawn on a UK banking address is
- the safest but most expensive solution.
- Amex/VISA/Thomas Cook travellers cheques made out to Joe Connor
- in Sterling (please add extra £5 to order total) are also
- acceptable.
- For smaller orders, AT YOUR OWN RISK, dollars cash in a "US
- Postal Service Global Priority mail flat rate envelope", is the
- cheapest option - these envelopes cost less than $4.
- Please contact me first to ask for a price in dollars.

-
- Response times
- --------------
- Email response time is usually same day with keys mailed out on receipt of
- funds. All incoming email is read and bugs are reported back to the
- authors. If you don't get an immediate reply to requests for help it's
- likely we haven't got anything helpful to say at that time.
-
- Due to the number of people whi support InterActive along with my other
- commitments postal registrations take longer than I'd like - although
- usually within 28 days. Please be patient!
