Frequently Asked Questions

General

The Sirius Report is a website created by Paul and his wife Lisa, with the aim of providing analysis and an alternative perspective on current affairs and global events that we believe are shaping a new political, economic and social paradigm in the 21st century. We are fully self-funded, not backed by or affiliated with any private or state entities.

You can read a little bit about Paul’s background on our About page. For privacy reasons, Paul prefers not to be known by his real name. He also feels that the primary focus should be on his work rather than on his identity.

Upgrading or Downgrading Membership

Log in and go to My Account (under the "Account" tab in the top navigation menu). From there, you can change your membership level to a paid membership plan.

To upgrade or downgrade your membership plan, simply log in, go to "My Account" (under the "Account" tab in the top navigation menu) and change your membership level.

You will be charged a prorated amount at checkout based on the number of days left in the current payment period and prices of the old and new level. Your recurring payment date remains the same, and the subscription is changed to charge the new amount.

You will be charged the initial payment of the new level minus a credit based on how many days are left in your current payment period and the subtotal from your last order. Your recurring payment date is reset to be one (new level) payment period from the date of checkout.

The initial payment is set to $0 and you are downgraded to the newly selected level immediately. Your existing recurring payment date remains the same. When the next recurring payment is due, you will be charged for the level you downgraded to. We recommend that you only downgrade towards the end of your current billing cycle so that you can continue to enjoy access to your membership plan features for the duration of your billing cycle.

Payment

We accept most major credit/debit cards and you can also pay with PayPal. If you would like to pay by wire transfer, please send us an e-mail and we will provide you with the appropriate details. We are currently only able to receive wire transfers in USD, GBP, EUR and AUD.

If you wish to switch from paying by credit/debit card to PayPal or vice versa, you will need to cancel your existing membership and checkout again with the new payment method. You can do this by going to "My Account" in the top navigation menu and click "renew" or "change" to go through the checkout process. Please make sure only to do this right before your next payment is due, otherwise you risk being charged twice in the same month.

To update your billing information for credit/debit card payments, go to “My Account” (under the "Account" tab in the top navigation menu) and click “Billing”.

If you are paying with PayPal, you will need to log in to your PayPal account and go to your "wallet" to update your billing information there.

If you are paying by wire transfer and you are switching to a bank account under a different name, please notify us of this change so that we know it’s you.
