I will go ahead and either compare yours against the orignal or back the original out and then apply yours.

My issue as I listed above is actually not as major as it first appeared, as while it did issue the expiry notification and then went ahead and kept the subscription active in VB AND it left Paypal alone. My only issue now is the expiry notices going out and I'm hoping your changes will sort it for me.

I also have another question. I have the subscriptions set-up to automatically change a member's usergroup to either Silver or Gold for both annual and monthly subs and that works fine. However, I also have custom groups set-up for my mods, admins, etc. that are also subscribers. The subscription works a charm in that as it recurrs it ensures that the user is in the proper usergroup. What I had happen is that the member I mentioned above was reset from Silver Moderator to Silver Subscriber and I really cannot have it de-modding my staff at will. hehe

I decided to just manage those subs via Paypal and manually set the custom usergroups when it's appropriate. This may be my only recourse, but like the Rank deal where many people have asked about having it modified to pick up swecondary usergroups, this might be something to look at as well here.

All I have to do now is get these monthlys recurring properly without sending expiry notices and I will be a happy camper!

I haven't done anything about the expiration emails yet. At this point, my code simply updates the install instructions for the new version of vbulletin.

As to your other problem, make your gold and silver secondary usergroups. In other words, when your members subscribe, they'll stay in their basic user group, but also be added to gold or silver. This way, your mods and admins don't lose their rank.
