You know, IMDB, I have been getting these promo emails from you about (re)upgrading my account to IMDB Pro for a while. Well, I would LOVE to but I do have only one... ONE request for this to be added to the IMDB Pro membership package: GUARANTEED FAST UP TO (PERHAPS) 5-7 business days to update the information on projects/title pages. I would sign up for the pro membership at a heartbeat if this is added to your offer. -Sincerely.

Just curious...what would be consequence of the guarantee? Money back? That wouldn't make sense as that's not a feature of Pro. If, as in your case, your su mission was do.e wrong or could not be verified, you'd want to invoke the guarantee but it's not their fault. I just can't see this happening. But of course it doensn't hurt to ask.
I am noticing, though, many updates are live now in a day or two. So the 5-7 days might not be of much value to many people (and they can't be done any faster than that.

Any findings on these requests please let me know. I'd appreciate it.
As far as the idea for the imdb pro to add the faster update feature, I wasn't even thinking about the consequences or the money back. I was just thinking since the pro members are actually already paying for the membership, there could be a way for them to get their updates faster that is all, I think a lot of people could use that feature in the pro package- Just and idea, that is all.

Staff, as you now know, does not give response to rejected submissions. If they are beyond 2-14 days, you should check the status and/or add evidence by which they can verify what you've submitted.
You can also find your submission ID numbers by going to your "site settings" section and use the link to "view your contributions."
I think it's a good idea overall....but, the consequenses were missing. And another thing, the site lists millions titles and millions of people. Backlogs can happen at any moment...I am not sure they'd risk the consequence being anything expensive. I bet that they'd want to keep separation between Pro services and the data contribution process. Things could get dicey if Pro members submitted data not eligible and responded with "I pay for this...do as I say". People say that already and there is no connection between Pro and the submission process.
Budget won't, by the way, get deleted. You can correct it but requests to delete, outright, data get rejected.

Regarding budgets...if you've had one deleted, it may have been done in error. There are many, many threads on this board about it. Note that this one is answered by a regular and expert contributor, then verified by staff then marked by staff as "answered."

Sorry you don't like the perceived tone in my reply but that's the way I talk. I am not much in the blow sunshine and rainbows...let's say, in your direction. Again....I like ideas being offered but I noticed it was incomplete. The reason ideas can attract replies is so folks can vote up or fine tune ideas. So thanks for contributing.
