not sure if anyone can see this but im abit disapointed with the fact this chap (adam anderton) is asking for a cheap renewal as his membership has lapsed, please tell me that hes going to be paying full price?
Can't see that if you're not a member?
ahh so the chap will pay to be a member there but not here unless a track day is coming up cheap :rolleyes:

Re: RTOC National Day at Mallory Park Satruday 4th of June
sexychrissmith my membership over on rtoc ran out a few months back ( ive been a member for 2 years and would like to get it for the lower price), ive sent a pm to the admin and no one has got back to me about it and i think the price for mallory goes up by £10 tomorrow and i would like to sort it out asap
imho this cheap renewal business is bullsh1t. if ya forget to renew then tough.
i bet he would
Oh nah, Chris misinformed him and Clee said no way lol. He'll be paying the same as everyone else :) I know this as I saw it on Cliosport and queried it myself and Clee told Chris off :laugh:
This post isn't about the membership renewal, he wanted to buy a track ticket for the price before it went up but that's not happening - I think they crossed their wires somewhereQuote:

Ahh that's ok then reads as if he wants the cheap renewal, my bad :ashamed:
Adam used to be an rtoc member, but his membership ran out....
You wouldnt believe how many people email me saying the same... they want to rejoin for £10....
Now this is something that has happened in the past, on the home page we even have a link for rejoinin members....
The exact rules on this is unclear, i have told adam if he wants to on track he can for £95...
He also had the link to club shop to buy his ticket & clees email.... we did offer a group discount to cliosport...but not enough members were interested (think 10 at £85)
I think from 1st of june if you dont renewal in time you have to pay £25, the club are looking into an auto-renewal to help people to remember....

I've just renewed rtoc has being telling me for last 14+ days when my renewal will expire so plenty of time to sort it out really:)
Just out of interest did you get an email to remind you???
I reckon i get 5 or so emails a week saying people forgot to renewalll sometimes only a couple of days... sometimes months/years....
email is sent 3 days before the renewal and then 2 days before, maybe have it send a bit earlier if possible if decide to stop putting it down to the lower amount.
I think a window of time should be decided upon and kept to. Not sure what happens now but maybe automatic email reminders, along with the banner a couple of weeks before, on the day and then maybe two weeks later as a final reminder.

For many many years we've just reactivated an ex-members account and charged them the renewal price instead of setting up a new account and sending a new members pack.
Auto renew was an idea to stop current memberships lapsing unless the members selected to not auto renew. As far as I and Scoff can tell, we are not able to implement such a feature.
then it needs to set at a flat rate renewal and new members or all ex members get a set price if they lapse, has to be the same for everyone or people will get pissed
It is and always has been.
Currently £10 renewal.
The bloke on Cliosport was saying that he wanted to renew for £10 and not £25. £25 is not the renewal fee, £10 is the renewal fee.
25 is new members fee but at what point do you stop being a member? If I didn't renew on time and came back 2 months later I should be made to pay 25.
I used to think the same. Now I'm of the opinion that if you're new to the club then you should pay an RTOC 'member for life' joining fee (£25 as it is currently). From there, no matter whether or not your membership is contiguous, you're always welcome to pay £10 for every 12months period thereafter you wish to have your RTOC account active.Quote:

I agree with Ian. We do actually want members here.
Point to be raised... if loyal, genuine members forget or are not about for a month or so and it expires, £25 to renew is a fecking piss take, id be utterly offended if i forgot and had to cough up £25 for the amount of years ive payed my subs... take this into consideration.
i missed my renewal a couple of years back and paid the 25 again ,,
i agree with paying only £10 if you miss the date now.
maybe a limit of 12 months after expiry then to full price again ??
there defo needs to be something set in stone
You would be amazed how often i get people saying my membership ran out 4 or 5 years ago, can i rejoin for £10.
When people forget by a week or so i dont mind (some people only log onto rtoc every now & then & may use old email address's so may forget)
I think its best to get £10 from old members rather than them not bothering & just using the general boards...
Most only rejoin to have a chat anyway, or look at the technical boards... Or to sell there car/parts & then leave rtoc anyway
that seems like a fair policy to adopt.Quote:

Just a quick question, when do you know when your membership runs out? Do you get in contact?
