Hi everyone and Happy Holidays!

Does anyone know if the lusaweb.net is still active? I tried to get
my password resent to me more than a dozen times with no luck. Any
info is greatly appreciated!

Hi JR,

The member section requires a password.  Mine doesn't work either.  Guess the membership lapsed.  I don't remember getting a reminder to pay my dues.  Maybe I did and I forgot.

Cheri;  I don’t think they send reminders.  I’m sure mine is also lapsed.  Sam in CA

Ok, I'm questioning LusaWeb, I was told it costs to use, so I quit going
to the site. If it doesn't now, I'll go back. Robin

At no time in the last seven years, even after paying for membership, was I able to log in to Lusaweb. All
requests for assistance went unanswered. I wrote them off as a scam.

lusaweb is a good web site and not a scam... I am surprised that you had problems that were not resolved. There is one man who runs the site and has the dues to help cover his costs and time running it. He has put a lot of energy & money into the site and $30 a year is nothing compared to the cost of software and web space let alone the time. There are parts of the site that are free including the chat room and others that are members only.

Hi Julzz,

I tried the chat room the other day and was told I could not have access as it was for members only.  I think that was last week.

Certain areas were supposed to be free and certain areas for members only.

LusaWeb just renews without asking unless you have canceled.  They just use the credit card that they have on file for you.  They renewed mine last October that way.  I have not been on there for awhile, since the people that I have wanted to contact are no longer reachable.  I will have to check out the site when I get home since I will have to look up my password.  I will let the list know what happens when I try to get on.

Sorry I misunderstood. What I saw was about 700 new members sign up in the last 60 days. Al Rodrigues
Merry Christmas and a happy new year
