How to buy more that One year Premium Membership?

[XINUODAO]

I already buy the One year Premium Membership, and after this, i don't have any way that i can buy more year of Premium Membership.
Is this mean i only can buy the Premium Membership after waiting the Premium Membership is end?
If yes, it's so bad, i don't want to re-making my home again based on i forget to pay the Premium Membership payment...

I think what Xinuodao means is that he only has access to a payment method for some limited time.  Next year, when LL bills him, he won't have a means to pay.  So he's asking if he can pay for a longer period now, up front, while he can.

LL did something a bit like this when they offered a discount on Premium membership for a limited time.  Some of us were able, because of the way circumstances aligned, to pay for nearly three years of Premium.

@XINUODAO, I suggest you call Linden Lab's billing number, 01-800-294-1067 or 01-703-286-6277 some time Monday through Friday, 0900 - 1700 Pacific Standard Time.  Ask them if it's possible to do as you are asking.  If you don't speak much English, have someone with you who can translate.  Try using Skype or another VOIP calling service to avoid international call charges.

After your year of premium runs out, the price of another year of premium will automatically be billed unless you downgrade.

As Syn says, it's all right in the TOS that you agree to when joining .... (Sect 4.3):

" ... , if you have purchased or redeemed a subscription-based product or service, each time your subscription comes up for renewal, we have the right to charge your credit card or debit your account the then-current renewal rate plus any applicable taxes we are required to collect, and you authorize us to do so. "

No, there's currently no way. The 1-year subscription is it.

In other words, your renewal is automatic unless you tell them to stop.  If you want to continue, you do not need to do anything.

I see....
Thank you. : )

And wish that it will become more easy to do this in Premium Membership pages in future too... : )

you'r quite some time around, somehow you missed latest buy down for premium, that was just a few months ago.
It was announced at several blogs/information pages of LL. It's just sorry you missed that, could sign up for 3 years if your account renewal was close to the dates, if not you still could do 2 yrs.
