Member Forum: did anyone go last night?

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

It’s weird really - I usually get two emails from the club on everything, one on my gmail account and one on my iprimus account - which they continue to send stuff on despite me telling the club on numerous occasions to delete.

This time I got nothing.
 
I received the email on the 10th Nov:-

Even if they're considering doing something they'd probably rather say no first up here so there's no confusion. Wait until they've got it planned, put out an official release which is clear about what's being offered. That way you're not left with disgruntled members who misheard or misunderstood what was said and feel the club has done them wrong.

Even if it's a small amount, you'd think the goodwill of it would still please the members as a whole. Say knock a couple of percent off for those who auto-renew or have renewed day 1 (which reduces admin costs and staff hours chasing memberships) and then maybe chuck some further discounts for those who are have been members for a while, perhaps another one or two percent at five years, then another at 10, etc. Not necessarily huge discounts or anything but something that rewards long time members and people who stick fat with the club year in, year out.
I've been on the auto-renew process since it started. A little incentive would be nice.
Having said that, the clubs growth is reward in itself. I'm just glad the member shirt came back.
