Just tried AGAIN to upgrade my membership. But still no "renew" option when I log into my account, and still only membership for 2012 -13 on the "open an account" option. Do I start again and open a new account ? Advice please.

See my reply from yesterday lunchtime :

I've just emailed Miller Waite, asking for this bug to be fixed. I will let everyone know what response I get back.

For now it might be easier contacting the club directly and doing your upgrade/renewals either on the phone or in person.

Not confident there will be an early answer.

The piece you refer to is a copy of the printed flyer, do not let that stop you renewing. If it is an upgraded package you want then see my earlier posts in this thread.

You didn't really expect anything to change did you?

Always the same with these meetings. Lots of convincing talk and no action.

Sad but true, but like you I will keep the faith.

I was speaking to Suzanne today and she said she will, and is, changing the date individually as people pay so that it is current for the coming season so there is no reason why you can't renew your membership.
Hope this helps.

Just logged in and filled in the form to renew my membership only to get this:

Official Site wrote:Account Renewal
Online Registration is now open.

The account you are trying to log into was found but membership has been activated via paypal. Please sign in using your email address and membership number as your username and password. These will have been emailed to you during registration.

Thing is I am logged in. I don't now know whether I have renewed or not. If I do it again will it register me twice. FFS

Trouble is people who are trying to update online don't have any confidence that their money isn't going into a black hole.

It can't be too difficult to update the webpage/systems surely?

The sad part is that people will give up trying at a time when the club needs the money.

When will the club realise that for many people online transactions are their preferred method of payment?

Have a look at your Paypal account to see if the money has gone.

Just clicked on the banner at the top of official website and I found it quiet straight forward and it has come out of my PayPal and I received 2 emails before and after I did it

Money not gone. Tried again and got the same message. I think it is because I pay monthly and I am still current and not expired so it won't renew. FFS

I wouldn't know the answers to your questions. I pay with cash as it is more convenient and by the sound of things less stressful. Perhaps you could call in a the club and ask what the problem is.

I take your point but that rather defeats the object of being able to renew on the internet.
