De-activating the Plug-in

In light of the problems with the plug-in since the upgrade to WP 3.1, and a couple of issues with a 503 error for some of my paid members, I am considering de-activating the plug-in.
However, before I take this step I was wondering if anyone else had taken this step and what the knock on effect of re-curring payments would be?
Any help or thoughts would be gratefully received.
