How do I renew my account?

Our Automatic Renewal Service automatically renews your Emails Manager account (including any upgrades) and charges the credit card on file for one additional year of service from the current expiry date. Auto-Renewal ensures that your web site enjoys continued uninterrupted operation without risk of cancellation. We will continue to bill your account on a yearly basis unless you cancel it beforehand.

One month prior to the Account Expiry Date, Emails Manager will charge the credit card we hold on file for your account. If the credit card is charged successfully, you will receive an email Invoice confirming payment. If the credit card is declined, you will receive an email Renewal Notice requesting payment. We will try to process your card 3 times before your account is cancelled. If your account expires and payment is not received during our "grace" period, it will be deleted. You should click here if you need to update the card held on file for your account.

How do I change my credit card?

If your account is nearing its renewal date and you want our Automatic Renewal System to use a different credit card, you can click here to update the card we hold on file for your account.

How do I cancel my account?

You can cancel the next Auto-Renewal of your account at any time by submitting the form here. This means selected Services will not be renewed and will be cancelled at the end of their current term after they expire.

After submitting the above form, our system will send you a Confirmation Notice which can be used to verify that you have successfully cancelled Auto-Renewal of your account.

If you paid with Paypal, you’ll need to log into your Paypal account to cancel it. We’re sorry we can’t do it from here.

Please note that Hosting and Upgrade Fees already paid are not refundable.

My site isn't working.

There can be many reasons why a site isn't working, however some of the most common include:

  • Your domain name is newly registered. It can take up to 48 hours for the Internet to recognize new domains.
  • If your domain name was not registered as part of your Emails Manager order, you must ask your Domain Registrar to change the nameservers for your domain to:
    • PRIMARY HOSTNAME: ns.emails-manager.com
    • PRIMARY IP ADDRESS: 65.60.63.17
    • SECONDARY HOSTNAME: ns2.emails-manager.com
    • SECONDARY IP ADDRESS: 184.154.185.17
  • The Home Page on your site (the page that loads automatically when you visit your domain) must be named either index.html or index.htm. If you name it something else such as homepage.html, the page won't load and you'll see an error message.
  • Your domain name has expired. You will need to contact your Domain Registrar to renew your domain.
  • Our service may be having technical problems. You can check the current status here.

Please contact our Customer Service Team if you need help.

My images don't load.

There can be many reasons why your images are not loading, however some of the most common include:

  • Web servers are case sensitive, so the image file picture.gif is not the same as Picture.gif or PICTURE.GIF. This is the most common cause of image problems. For example, if your image is called picture.gif but your HTML calls Picture.gif, the server can't find the file.
  • Spaces in filenames can cause similar problems as above.
  • Incorrect image tags. If the path in your image tags isn't correct, the image won't show. For example:
    <img src=";picture.gif";> or 
    <img src=";/directory/picture.gif";> or 
    <img src=";http://www.yourdomain.com/directory/picture.gif";>
  • You are using your temporary URL such as:
    http://www1.emails-manager.com/accounts/youraccount/
    to call your images. This temporary URL is only designed to be used during the first 72 hours while the Internet is recognizing your new account. For example, if you are using the image tag:
    <img src=";http://www1.emails-manager.com/accounts/youraccount/directory/image.gif";>
    change it to:
    <img src=";/directory/image.gif";>
    or
    <img src=";http://www.yourdomain.com/directory/image.gif";>
    to fix your problem.
  • You are trying to load your images from a remote server outside Emails Manager. Unfortunately, we are a low-cost service, not a commercial web host, so we are unable to allow members to link to images or files from another server. Our system only allows you to use your images on your own site, not other sites outside Emails Manager. Without this policy, our prices would be significantly higher. Details can be found in the "Remote Loading" section of our Service Agreement.

Please contact our Customer Service Team if you need help.
