[thylacine60]

you were going so well.........

Only applies if you sign on to their direct debit plan

Uh-huh. I'd need a bloody lot of convincing to authorise a $700+ direct debit. I think I'll pass.

 

[thylacine60]

They're great. I give them out to the homeless. We all have to do our part.

Im interested to know what upgrade ill be getting being a Captains Club Premium 18 game reserved seat member.
Upgraded to a Carltonians Corporate memebership? Cant see that happening.

I'm in the same boat

 

[Jabba73]

Whoooo hooooo a 6% discount on merchandise coming up.

Always thought 5% was a bit cheap from the club

 

[Robbo's my hero]

Damn it. Every time I think I’m out they drag me back in. Go Blues.

On [device_name] using BigFooty.com mobile app

Yep, not happy about that. I prefer to pay upfront.

As an interstate member, a membership upgrade is a nice gesture, but is of no tangible benefit to me at all.

Have been on that Carlton Direct thing for years now, so as long as I don't get charged more for my 2020 membership then all good with me

Yep same, be interesting to see what the upgrade is.
I think it's a pretty good gesture though.

 

[MightyMighties]

A bit vague, but I like it.

Hopefully bonus upgrades for those of us who sat through the Freo, Melbourne and St Kilda Games

Did those. And let's not forget the GWS one either. Did that as well...

 

[Dominator_7]

Been a member since 1994, so appreciate the recognition. Having a young family and not being a high income earner, I can t afford to pay for upgraded membership for myself and my kids though, so hope I’m not lumped with it after 12 months.

 

[MightyMighties]

Am I reading into this wrong, or will my gen admin membership be upgraded to a reserved seat next year?

We got an upgrade from Gen admin this year to Captains Club, which is essentially social club. So you might get the same.

It's a nice upgrade.

 

[DamoESP]

Yeah totally agree, great gesture by the club

I just hope they don't try anything underhanded like automatically charging you for the higher level of membership at the end of next year in a sort of "opt-out" scheme...as no doubt it will catch quite a few people unaware.

 

[AndyLucimitis]

This is interesting....
Not sure if this is a good thing or a concerning thing??
I'm paying top dollar for my membership now and have been for years,i wonder how the club can top this???
.

This will be you next year...

 

[Aphrodite]

Gen Admin would most likely be upgraded to Members Reserve.

If you had Captains Club Gen Admin then that would be upgraded to Captains Club reserved.

 

[thylacine60]

I'm already at Diamond Doull Headband level - all they have left to offer me is the voucher book..............the voucher book..............

 

[harrisendblue]

Fantastic initiative by the club. Don't really care what the benefits will be, just really pleased we are being pro active on the membership front. Even if a small percentage of members retain the upgrade in 2020 it will have been worthwhile.

Go baggers.

 

[FRUMPY]

Ill take a guess and you get an extra scarf or beanie for normal members. And for your big paying members a dinner/lunch at a club function or something

Im hoping a free Uber for games like Freo when I went home early.

 

[FRUMPY]

Is the club worried members will drop off in droves? I get the feeling while this year has been really disappointing, the club has been upfront and honest and expect membership numbers to be similar to 2018. Although my family will be the reason we are down at least 2 members (I got the kids a junior membership and auskick membership, which both count towards the total - only getting auskick membership for them next year)

It might be possible. The main reason I say that is that the Carltonians recently became a part of the football club. Previously they were a separate entity.

So now that the Carltonians are inhouse maybe an upgrade like that might be possible?

They are going to upgrade you by moving you to VIC
