Still no membership in the mail?

thejiggingsaint · Wed 02 Mar 2011 12:19pm

SPOT-ON Enrico! My beef with the club membership department is based on ten years of membership with things going wrong/glitches for almost all of those ten years. I would gladly do without all the "showbag" element of the membership if I could have a stress free renewal each season. It can't be THAT hard surely to God?! (for an organisation that is supposedly becoming a "powerhouse of the AFL

)

I also agree with Enrico and Dave, I have not recieved a single thing so far, only a little more than three weeks before our first game, I am not happy

i'm on that plan as well..got the dvd etc..no membership

DVD? I'm on the roll over, got the SC stuff ages ago & membership card last week. No sign of a DVD though.

It all seems pretty random.

3 words: NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

Ideally I would like to have had the memberships before Xmas to give them out as presents (they cost enough).

But despite paying in early December I am still waiting, that's three months, and it's only three weeks till Round 1.

Don't worry with oversize keyrings, and money boxes and CD holders.
Just give me my piece of plastic.

It can't be that hard!!!!!!!

agreed. the club has always been shithouse in this area and they don't seem to be improving. i thought we were supposed to be moving to new standards of professionalism but i guess not.

I'm a social club member.
I got my showbag months ago and then received my membership card about a week ago. Never saw a dvd though...

unreal
what they run out of copies???
i know peeps say 'hey we shouldnt bag our membership dept'

seems there isnt much communication

thejiggingsaint · Fri 04 Mar 2011 9:34am

My card came in the mail today (harry-loo-jar!

) No sign of any DVD. I'm SO over this mob in marketing/membership. Its the usual crew;the usual promises; the usual lack of expertise, usual lack of interest in the paying member. I'm just grateful that the coaching staff and players have a wee bit more professionalism than this bunch of no marks

Just got my card in the mail.

Can someone explain how Row HH in the southern stand at the MCG is comparable to Row E at Etihad?

As far as I'm concerned a comparable seat would have been in the Olympic stand.

I buy TWO reserved seats at the dome on THE WING, received my TWO memberships today and I was allocated ONE seat for the MCG, same MCG seat number on both memberships, near the forward pocket!

Rang, received apology for this mistake, then offered two seats in the FORWARD POCKET, as these were the only TWO seats together remaining, apparently!

None available near the WING!

I renewed the same day I received the mail out!

Whilst I understand it might not be easy to provide like for like etc...

how hard is it to allocate different seat numbers to two separate memberships?

The club would have trouble organising a chook raffle!

FAIR DINKUM

There aren't many seats on the wing at the MCG on the lower levels that aren't taken up by the MCC or AFL Members, most of the General Public seats (Those that the club can sell) are in the pockets and behind the goals

barks4eva · Post: # 1045444Post **barks4eva** » Fri 04 Mar 2011 3:04pm

M16, M15, M14 are the bays that would be the closest fit on the Southern stand side of the ground!

Q54, 53, 52 on the Olympic!

BUT delivering two memberships with different seat numbers at the dome with the same seat number at the MCG, FAIR DINKUM!

For what it is worth I'm more annoyed at being in the crappy facilities of the southern stand than how many rows back i am.

Sainternist · Fri 04 Mar 2011 5:04pm

Still haven't received mine. Mind you, I was a little bit of a Johnny B Lately in renewing on the opening night of our NAB Cup campaign.

I don't have a reserved seat, however, I might be upgrading in getting one providing some friends of mine finally make up their minds in getting them as well

Has anyone upgraded their membership to reserved seating? if so, did you have to wait any prolonged period for the upgrade process?

No cards yet!
Early season package for the 5 in our family came in dribs and drabs over 3 weeks and one didn't come at all. Must have got lost in the mail. Finally have it now after contacting the club.

Got mine in the post today as well, sounds like they were all mailed on the same day.

Supposed to still be New Recruit in your second year yeah?

saintspremiers · Sat 05 Mar 2011 6:12am

I haven't got mine yet. Assuming it will come on Monday or I'll hassle the club yet again.

They should mail out the scarves and caps and stop treating members as pieces of shyte.
