Maybe nice to know, i don't know when it started or when it ends but this info can be found on the news page on RS.

As a compensation for the waiting time until our new system has been finished, we are offering a great summer special: currently, you can create a 30-days Premium Account for only 1998 Free-RapidPoints!

Yes, but you cannot extend your current Premium account for 1,998 points, but for 10,000 as usual ...

I don't want to create additional Premium accounts, difficult to manage if you have several ones ...

And I just cashed in 10k on 08/09. Hope the offer still stands 09/09.
By the way, Rapidshare is down for me right now.

Down with Rapidshare !

I mean, rapidshare is down for me, too.

I think I had 1988 points in my premium account when I let my premium membership lapse.

So how are you supposed to convert if you can't get in?

Either I missed it or I just can't find it. I only have 1958 RP anyways. Go figure.

It should still be on there; I cashed mine in a couple of days ago. (at least it still shows up in the "News" area)

Otherwise, when you get enough points, click where it says "Convert RapidPoints". If you have the Security Lock active, turn it off first. Then just click to convert the points, and you are done! Remember to copy the login and password information.

On a related note, has anyone gotten an unexpected number of premium points? If someone buys a premium account from the link on one of your downloads you get points, but I didn't expect someone to buy a whole year from one of my downloads. Thanks to them and someone else I got 22,000 Premium Points that I can save and redeem later. I only mention this because I had only recently gotten to 10,000 free points and to get those was an unexpected surprise.
