I don't see anything related to opting in to automatic FCC renewals listed. Am I missing something somewhere?

Mike,

I believe I remember that you have to select the license renew request in your webpage account profile. No check mark, no license renewal notice.

Subject: [arrl-odv:33837] ARRL FCC license renewal notices?

A member accidently let his amateur license lapse, and was wondering why the FCC didn't send him a renewal notice before it expired. I explained that one to him, (the "Paperwork Reduction Act"), then he wondered why he also didn't get a renewal notice from ARRL. I couldn't explain that one. Here's what he sent me:

Incidentally, I just did a google search, (which brings up another issue...) where ARRL says on their website that expiration notices are a "benefit of membership"... see http://www.arrl.org/expiration-notices

It doesn't specify email or snail mail, but the wording suggests snail mail.

If that's no longer the case, that page needs to be updated. I may have received one but I don't think I did.

Is this something that Personify broke, or is this an anomaly? I haven't had any other questions about it, but was wondering.

Anybody else on ODV had recent issues with this?

Thanks!
