Did it work? I have the same problem, I sent a ticket but Chess.com hasn't responded yet.
why don't you fix whatever issues with Paypal you have?

Du kannst direkt von paypal eine Geldanweisung an order@chess.com vornehmen und dann dem Support mitteilen, dass du das Geld gesendet hast und für welchen user und welche Premiummitgliedschaft das Geld gedacht war. Ich habs jetzt so gemacht und bin gespannt wie lange das dauert.
Wie lange hast du warten müssen, bis die reagiert haben?
2 Tage. Alles gut geklappt.

Hmm, okay, warte jetzt schon seit letzten Freitag ... wenn's diese Woche nichts wird, muss ich mich echt wundern, wo mein Geld geblieben ist. :/
I understand German but I don´t write or speak it well, so I'll answer in English;
I paid on a Friday as well, and I got my platinum crown on Tuesday, I didn't count the weekend cause I think they don´t work on saturday and sunday, probably off to tournaments.

Oh, my apologies, it wasn't clear to me that German wasn't your first language! 
Tomorrow's Tuesday, so here's hoping! And if nothing has happened until this week has passed, then, well, I will have to assume that my money has gone down the drain.
it's still the case that users from Germany cannot upgrade the account with paypal. I have good reasons to not use a credit card anymore. And I don't wanna pay for a whole year, so it would be too annyoing to send the money manually each month, send you a mail and wait for confirmation.
I have a monthly paid membership with other providers who also opperate wordwide and can use Paypal everywhere but here. So I hope you'll finally fix the problem you have with Paypal. I'll come back to Premium if it's done.
