Uhhh... I'd be trying to avoid the name "Gold Club" right about now.

Yeah. The whole place is a joke. Over priced everywhere. When they first opened, their prices were high and the amount of available products sucked.

And what about people with PDA inssurance from them?

I can't remeber what the deal was between PDA Gold Club and PDAs Lost or Stolen, but I do know that the account info was intergrated. So what's going on? I know my insurance account is still active, but it would help to know WTF is going on.

They have severed their relationship with PDAsLostorStolen. The site served as its administration portal where customers could find their account information. The site also changed its pricing philosophy that offered preferential pricing to certain "members" that signed up for insurance. "To individuals outside of the PDA insurance program, the preferential pricing structure was a little confusing," said Chad Parks, Marketing & Communications Director for Darwyn, new owners of the site. "The site is streamlined to offer the very best prices to the general audience
of PDA owners and can now stand alone from any previous partnership with other sites."

To aid the current PDAsLostorStolen customer base, the site does offer a hyperlink they can follow to obtain their policy information.
