So to clarify: some person who absolutely didn't have anything to do with "Freddy Carrillo's Day Off" has now been credited for the film in IMDb? This person wasn't fired (or something along those lines) from the project at some point or anything like that (which is, sadly, often the case with the credit disputes)? => (Remember that this is a public forum, though)
Btw. No one is "paying" any subscriptions for basic film credits. Submitting credits and various other info for IMDb is free (you just usually need proof/sources/etc).

Hi, yes, I pay a subscription fee to use Withoutabox which is owned by Amazon and I'm able to update my credits. I have never been able to list credits by going directly to IMDB. Withoutabox is a verification of the project for IMDB and awards. And no, nobody on the Freddy project got fired. Nothing. It's a low budget project for a wheelchair athlete. Lots of dedication and sweat equity went into it. And love for Freddy. Why? Because he is an iconic wheelchair athlete. I worked with Ray Hollowell on one very small short film about dolphins called MyPod. He lives in Hawaii. I live in So Cal full time. Born and raised under the Hollywood sign. In the early part of last week, all my listings were correct. Then when I went to add more credits to the Freddy project, Ray was listed as the Writer, Director and Producer of that film. And, he was listed as writer, Director for The Board Meeting. I was able to correct The Board Meeting directly. But IMDB REJECTED my changes. Then I reached out to Ray yesterday. He got an email a while back, way back from IMDB showing the listing. The email from IMDB indicated that HE was the writer, director for The Board Meeting. He contacted IMDB and he said he got zippo response. I've been on IMDB for years and belong to to a big So Cal writers co-ops. Others have had the same problem...

Tom, Eboy said that IMDB doesn't charge an annual fee. Yes it does. Below is that invoice that I just renewed. I pay a festival entry fee when I go on withoutabox...
Below is my annual subscription to IMDB. Both are owned by Amazon. Eboy was too busy to chatting to read it carefully.
Here is the annual receipt for the subscription.

When my subscription is processed every year, it breaks down other options the subscription offers.
Yes, I know that they are both free. I know that. IMDB is free or a subscription. I've been doing this a long time. But, there are added benefits by having an IMDB subscription. And I chose that route. Thanks for your input. When I went on this site, I didn't know it combined IMDB staff and open forum. I just need the IMDB staff to fix the credits. Sorry to bother you guys...
