fighterhwk Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 My parents are really strict, and they won't let me get members anymore (I had membership for 2 months...they decided it was a waste of money). Are there any ways to get membership without them knowing? Paybyphone won't work for me, as they'll figure it out from the extra money charged onto the phone bill. Btw...I can't drive yet, not quite old enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Diddy Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 One way or another you will be caught and they most likely will be so ticked they will ground you from your computer, so I wouldn't want you to deal with that. Your best chance would be trying to convince them that the game is very fun and your time will be well spent (well not really). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 The 2 ways I've used which don't require any parental consent or assistance are Debit/Gift cards and PayByCash. Through Debit/Gift cards, with a Mastercard Gift Card, you can purchase a $30 (3.95 activation fee) one from your nearest store, like Walmart, and use it to pay for your membership like a credit card. Or PayByCash and mail it in. No receipt or anything is sent back so your parents wouldn't know unless they saw you mail it out. This is more expensive and takes a bit longer.

fighterhwk Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hmm...the gift cards sound interesting...do you think they would sell them at CVS? I can bike there in like 5 minutes or less maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I doubt CVS but try a mall or something like Walmart as heart said or possibly sears. If a man is not a worker, he is nothing.BOSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Well I got mine at Walgreens and it's basically the same as CVS, so possibly yes. If it's not that far, you could just go in and ask a Cashier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fighterhwk Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Ok, I'll be sure to try that soon...hopefully they sell them! :pray: If not, I might just do pay by cash and mail it in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phazonking Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Alright, I did this once and it worked. Get $8 (something around there for pay by mail), put it in an envelope, and send it via mail. Here comes the tricky part, at least for me: Finding a way to send it without getting caught. Here's the scoop: Pretend you have a girlfriend (assuming you're male :P) or an important other and make a fake envelope addressed to him/her. Ask your parents if you can go to the a post box, and switch the letters without being seen, therefore sending the money for membership. I did this whole shinanigan exactly, and I must say it was quite fun; that is, if you don't want your parents nagging you about your significant other :P And of course, why not defy your parents with style; isn't that what childhood is all about? \ 99/99 Defence 92/99 strength 80/99 slayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icecube Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 >_> Not true etpelletier. I've subscribed to many months of membership without my parents knowing, all without a credit card. Just use PayByCash (through mail) or debit/gift cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinyang222 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 If your parents oppose your playing runescape, you might try to convince them that it's a worthwhile expense. Say it's a cheap escape from reality, which you need due to all the stress. You can also bring up that it's much cheaper than alcohol and drugs, and far less damaging than other methods of escaping from the real world. Or you can use pay-by-mail. Does anyone know if there is an age limit required to purchase visa gift cards? Actually, (sorry to hijack thread), but if someone could pm me with a dummy's guide to using visa gift cards, that would be nice. =) Dragon Drops- D legs, finally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, that works for me, just don't talk to them about combat parts. I told them about them, then it took a month of saying "But I won't really be using combat!" to get them to buy it.

ZsXzSx456 Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Have a mobile phone? Why don't you just pay by SMS? To me it seems like the most instant and no hassle way to pay (that rhymes :lol:). As long as you can get the money and top up your phone yourself, there should be no way of your parents knowing, unless they read through you inbox...
