Pro subscription reminders

warrenski Pro says:

When I visited my "General" settings page, I noticed that my Pro account expiry date is given in a paragraph at the top of the tab. For example:

You have a Remember The Milk Pro account. It expires on February 9th, 2012.
Extend your Pro account, view your order history, or view the gifts you've purchased.

I find it a little odd that a reminder service as great as RTM doesn't, when a member has purchased a Pro account, either:

1. Automatically add a task to my list to the effect of "Renew RTM subscription" for when the renewal is due. I get that this could be seen by members as being invasive.

2. Provide a handy link to members who might wish to quickly and easily add a Pro account renewal reminder to their task list. For example, it would result in something like:

Renew RTM Pro account ^9 February 2012 #Inbox =5 min *after 1 year http://www.rememberthemilk.com/account/order/

I'm going to run a variation of that myself right now! :)

The point of Remember The Milk is to assist YOU in managing your tasks. It is not helpful for you to have tasks "randomly" added to your task list. If you do know what is on your plate, then it will cause more stress to have tasks "automatically" appear. If it is not a priority enough for you to choose to create an actionable task to renew your subscription... I would recommend you use a calendar for things like "remind me on a specific day of an appointment" type items.

If I want to get reminded about that, then I'll set a task myself :)

Why can't we buy a subscription to pro? I like rtm and I want to be pro. For the foreseeable future. Is that crazy?

Why not just set a yearly Tickler to remind yourself?

You will get a reminder via mail 10 days before your subscription ends. Granted this is not the most relaxing time window to extend your subscription, but it is at least a reminder.
