Hi, i have a website which is free membership, but now I want to start charging a monthly rate so when the free members sign back in they will have to pay or lose the account how I would I go about doing that? In desperate need, thank you in advance.

start by investigating LM_paypal and Ubercart modules. (You may have to set up a roll for paid members that only they have access to.)

Hi, thanks I have all the paypal modules for drupal and can set up a membership, but the existing members can carry on using the site for free but I want them to have to setup a paid membership for the website as soon as they sign in, so they will not be able to see there account till then? thanks.

Presumably you have a role which allows paid-for access to all of the content. So, surely you just change the role of all the members who haven't paid to a different role.

Once they have paid, their role is changed.

First, create a new roll for paid members. Then in permissions, grant that roll access to what you want them to have - stories, forum, comments.

So when a user pays and becomes a member, they'll have access to the site.

You can also use ACL http://drupal.org/project/acl and its helper modules for more fine-grained access control.
