And if you have any Passport Advantage products, (they can't be included in the same SWMA, so I'm told), that renewal is also cumbersome.
We have three, RDI floating licenses, IBM Data Replication, Spectrum Protect Suite (formerly Tivoli)

These products we all have with various BP, (not all BP can sell/renew all products).
A renewal also comes from IBM to renew these.
Last week I received another email from IBM, stating since these products were NOT renewed, they will be cancelled.

I had to send the renewal details (for each product/BP) back to IBM to avoid cancellation.

work with has to do the legwork to get the "exception" handled...so I
take the humane approach and start it 60 days ahead to avoid the hassle

things done so I am thankful that for the past 10 years (at least) I
have had the same contact...

Yea, good luck with that too.

I have my calendar set at 60 days out to avoid issues.

I would hope the fact that I've reached out would cancel any late fees.
If
not, a stink will be raised. lol

+1.

Years back my renewal was delayed (don't ask), our maintenance was
cancelled.
Took an act of congress and a good part of a month to be reinstated.

Long story short, don't ever let your contract expire if in need of
support, because you won't have any.

Yep, that's what I'm trying, Pete. I made sure to set my reminder 2
weeks
before the actual expiration so there should be plenty of time to
avoid "fees" for not renewing on time. ;)
