Question for all you lifers. Do they still sent you all that crap in the mail that the yearly folks are flooded with? Yes and they try to get you to upgrade to the next level. No big deal just throw it away or ask them to quit sending. So far I have sponsored at least 10 upgrades. PM me and I'll do more.

I just got off the phone with the NRA, trying to do this upgrade for my life membership. I have all the sponsors info. They just told me that the sponsor who got the offer needs to call them! Any of you life members care to give them a call and figure out how this is working now? Like can the current life member give them a CC#, or will they bill the new life member later? Or do you need a three way call?
A bit frustrating, but maybe someone can clarify.
Also I would still need a "sponsor" to help me jump through whatever hoops they have now.
"Do you want it "Right", or "Right now"? - always a good question.

That's not the way it worked for the ones I sponsored. I never called anyone. Maybe you should call back and talk with a different Jennifer.

Any of you life members care to give them a call and figure out how this is working now? Just call back yourself. You likely got someboy that was unfamiliar with the current promotion. You'll get somebody different next time, and can do it all yourself if you have your sponsor's info.

I am a Benefactor Member and a Recruiter for the NRA. I would also be willing to sponsor any who wish to join/upgrade. Another option for those low on cash but would like to work torwards a Life Membership is the EPL Plan or "Easy Pay Life" plan. Cost is still $300 I believe, Only difference is you pay $25 every quarter (4 payments a year) for 3 years. PM's welcomed...Ryan.

NOPE - STILL NO LUCK. Just called the general number 877-672 2012, got someone a little slower on the uptake, and thought I was getting somewhere, we got to the $600 price, but when I said $300, it was a check with the supervisor thing, and then the same answer, the sponsor needs to call. I asked about payment and they suggested the sponsor would need to pay, but she wasn't sure, I asked if the sponsor could provide my CC info, again not sure. "have the sponsor call back".
Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone tried the web link route today?

Already tried that first. That's where I got the quick answer, "sorry have the person who got the offer call..."

I tried online and got to the CC information and backed out. I think someone replaced the CC information w their own and it ended up working fine.
The following morning I call 877-672-2000 ext 3 and was told I needed to call 877-672-2012, it was contracted out due to the number of calls for the lifetime gift offer. I asked about getting credit for my annual membership which had just cleared the bank and wasn't due until March. She said OK, they won't be able to help with that she'd go ahead and complete it for me...so I ended up upgrading for $265 as she provided credit for the annual just paid. They do seem to be trying to get the lifetime gifts over to that other number and while I had a sponsor lined up (thanks Matt) she never asked for it.
So...keep trying it depends on who you get on the other end. It will be interesting to see what follows in the mail (annual, lifetime or probably both).

Go to www.nra-2012.orgEnter the Life member's number and zip and YOUR email address. As you go through the screens just replace any of the member's information with your own information. It works just fine. There is also a previous post in this thread with a link to a You Tube video that walks you through the screens.

Just did mine on the internet following "morestag" directions above and it worked just fine.

Thanks, I am going to try that next, as the phone route isn't working. I am just waiting for the zipcode, and e-mail info to come back from my sponsor to get it done, hopefully before they change their mind, and change something again.
