U-11:  How can we get more free request credits?
Is there a limit to how many requests I can make?
----
A limit is set on the number of free requests available when
your application is initially approved.  This limit is set
with consideration to all other users and to prevent abuse.

Supporting tax-exempt IRS nonprofit participants are allowed
priority treatment since they are into both, the business of
helping others, and helping us to fund this service.  Those
who donate 20 USD quarterly receive unlimited request credits.

Newly approved, non-yet-supporting, IRS tax-exempt nonprofit
participants receive four free requests intially, and as
they open a dialog with us telling us honestly about their
experiences with using our service, they can continue to
earn additional free credits.

In other words, non-supporting participants wishing to
acquire additional credits must openly discuss with us their
experiences while using our service.  Once we have helped
you, and if you wish to continue to use our service for the
long term, we expect you to help us help others in return.

For those we have yet to help, it is important for us to
know how you are doing, and why our system may not be
working for you. Often, a few simple changes in strategy
can produce great results, and we want to see you succeed.

If a non-supporting participant does not open a dialog with
us about their experiences, or if the participant does not
remit a token contribution, when they use up their credits,
their account will become inactive.  To re-activate your
account, simply visit the "Member Account Adminstration"
area, and open a dialog with us through the "Credits" link.

This simple process of direct, open communication with each
of our non-profit participants allows us to fine-tune our
exchange process, allowing everyone to have better a more
positive and fruitful experience.

Direct communication opens an avenue for us to provide more
personalized service, and offer timely advice to participants
on how to leverage their efforts for high returns.

For qualified technicians who intend to focus on requesting
older equipment for building a parts inventory, ask about our
special program where you can receive unlimited free request
credits over an introductory period.
