Hi Everyone,

Havent been on in a fair while but been reading. This year has been trying for me membership wise. Im on the rollover or prepay plan
or whatever they call it, paid my dues back in November I think with everybody else, still have no membership card or anything. Its been
shocking the service this year. Contacted the club they said they sent out 2nd membership pack, that didn't arrive either. So either they
are taking the mickey or someone is pinching our mail. Anyway I hope everyone had a great Christmas, really looking to 2019 and I think we will win the flag. The membership seems to be trekking along nicely too.

Cheers

I’ve received 3 of my 5 memberships but not the other 2 (they have me cards that don’t have the barcodes  - I don’t know what they’re even supposed to do). Rang them, got the cards, then got them again 2 weeks later.
The “system “ is a joke

Pet memberships came before Xmas.

My other half's token membership can forst week of December

Mine which is their new "premium" membership category (replacing Inner Sanctum = don't get me started) "Club XI cane 1st week of January after being promised delivery before Xmas.

As the saying goes "you pay peanuts you get monkeys" .... the mailhouse / distribution mob are hopeless

Has the mailhouse/distribution been altered or expanded in any way in recent years since our membership numbers have exploded? Doesn't sound like it. Ramps and WP's poor experiences seem quite common this year.



ps. Great to hear from you, Ramps  .

Does the club still handle its own memberships? I figure we still sell them, I mean the production of cards and the mail out.

After my experiences with merchandise after the 2017 flag, and finding out that it was an AFL warehouse contractor that was sending the stuff to me, I wonder whether that might be the issue here. It would make business sense that the AFL try to economise this type of function for clubs.

Regardless, pretty damn amateurish.

Club sell them, do the runs re the cards, but the sending out and putting together what goes where is done by 3PL

My understanding is it isnt the same mob who do the merch.

Wait do we actually sell pet memberships?

must be a new thing for this year. 100k memberships last season not very impressive tbh if we had pet memberships then

Not counted in the numbers IIRC.

Correct  not counted in our membership tally

And they've been selling them for over a decade. Great reveue raiser, easiest $35 the club can make
