It seems pretty obvious with the banner at the top of the page saying "In order to use the PM system and be a full fledged member of this community, you will have to make 4 post replies and wait 1 hour for your account to be upgraded."

Thanks for this info. I don’t think it’s as obvious using the mobile app.

[kosta787]

Same problem here, hope it's fixed asap

[darkzephyrin]

I am also having a similar issue (can't seem to send PMs).

[TheFlowingRios]

I’m also having this issue it’s very annoying 😑

[Bofors]

Waited over an hour and this marks post five. We will see.

Edit:

I think the posts have to be in the actual X5/X6 forums to count. Universal does not appear to count.

Agree, very annoying

Not sure why I still can’t use the PM system despite having 5 posts and waiting half a day. Hopefully it starts working eventually.

[Jklotz]

Same here.

[Lukyky414]

Same here for me.
I have seen that maybe it need 10 post (and not 4 as in the banner).

[ivang80]

same problem here
pm still doesnt work

[JJ 911SC]

Non Technical post (like this thread) does not count as one toward the requirement.

[NewDaddyDee]

After some experimenting yesterday I found out that the 4 post requirement is wrong- you need 10.

yup, found out the same as well today. I had 5 posts for a couple weeks and it never updated. just made it to 10 posts and 1 hour later, I had access to PMs.

[Lukyky414]

Still not enough for me.
If 2012 BMW 1-Series Sporthatch (F20) Discussion does not count, where can I post if I only have a F20 ? I don't want to spam just to have PMs...

[Broderon86]

PM still now working.
GMX E-Mail gets blocked.
nedded to make a gmail account just for this...

The solution is to visit your regional BMW retailer and (gasp) pay for the stuff you're trying to steal. Seems simple enough to me, and doesn't litter up these forums with your dozen garbage "thanks" posts trying to run your post count up.....
