    Hi jhmfish,

    This support doc may be of help:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/manage-purchases/

    I’ve also tagged this thread for staff review, so a member of the WordPress.com support team should be in contact with you soon.

    Thanks cobalteye, I’ve followed their instructions but just keep running in circles with the Manage Plan button under Premium Plan, every time I click on it, it just goes back to Upgrade Now button. I don’t want to upgrade, just renew.

    Hi @jhmfish, can you make sure you’re logged in using the account that owns the upgrade? It looks like the upgrade is under a different login.

    I’m having a similar problem. I’m trying to renew premium on http://www.gringoinrosario.com but when I fill in my credit card details and hit purchase, nothing happens.

    When I try to pay in paypal, it looks like it accepts my payment and sends me back to wordpress, but my account doesn’t update that I’ve paid. What’s going on?

    @nickdwms – your issue appears to be different, since you own the upgrade. Can you come and chat with us here?

    Hi, actually someone else in our organization signed up for this years ago so that individual has access to the account. As our treasurer I pay the bills and will like to pay the renewal fee with our credit card.

    Any suggestions?

    Organizations,companies and/or groups of any kind do not own blogs. Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner and it is the person with the WordPress.COM username account, who registered the blog under that username account and their associated email address and purchased any upgrades.

    The blog’s owner must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchased upgrades to renew them or to update credit card information, or to transfer the blogs and the upgrades to another username account.

    https://en.support.wordpress.com/my-upgrades/#transferring-upgrades

    You will have to contact the site’s actual owner and have them renew or transfer the site to your username account.

    @jhmfish, have the <strike>treasurer</strike> current owner follow the instructions timethief sent; specifically this one:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

    Or if they’ll log in and get in touch with us here during business hours, we’ll help them transfer the upgrade:
