Membership number comes in the post with the members pack, be sure your address is correct on your profile.

the point is you have joined the best rover club in the world and will save your £10 tenfold in the first year in garage bills alone,there are guys on here that live/eat and sh...rover and there knowledge is priceless and are usually more than happy to guide you through any probs you have with your motor.although you would be able to use some of the clubs facilities without paying, for a poultry £10 you can use all the clubs facilities,

has been quite a while since i requested members pack, but have read the posts saying hold up of arround 2 months, it has been a bit longer than that, i do not feel i have been ripped off as the amount of help i have had on this site would have contributed to hundreds of pounds in garage fees etc. so for the sake of a bit of plastic i am willing to wait, whats the worse thats going to happen if its a bit of a wait,tell me and i will comfort you.

Ask for your money back if you are that unhappy. I'm sure you would get a refund if you really felt that bad about it

[Simondi]

Andy.
I understand your frustration however if it's been posted and not received I am unsure what can be done about it other than resend it
If you wish I will turn your name blue and arrange a refund for you, by my own pocket if necessary.

I have had a great deal of help from the forum and met new friends more than worth the £10 fee.

However I do understand how the OP feels, even if I do think he is over reacting. When you turn red you are promised a membership number and some stickers, you are not told there will be a long wait (I joined in Jan and Im still waiting) and the only way you can find out is to trawl though lots and lots of posts. If you contact Actros direct you are ignored and you do get frustrated when you read that if you meet him at a gathering he is giving out membership packs.

I do not want to sound like Im ranting and I think this whole problem is down to lack of comunication, If updates were clearly posted on a regular basis people would not get frustrated.

I want the tax disc holder and sticker to show Im a member of this great club, and maybe get spotted.

I understand Actros and everyone else are volunteers I volunteer for another (non car) club whith a large membership and we have a rule that we reply to all emails within 3 days and keep the menmbership aware of problems etc with regular updates on our website and through the magazine, while this would not work here something similar would.

Just my opinion and not intended as a rant or attack on the people who work hard for the club.

Totally agree, and well said. I too have waited, really the tax disc holder and sticker is just a bonus but a bonus I would be proud to display. Would really like my membership card and number. Planning on attending Beamish would like to go as a bonified member, maybe if a moderator is viewing this we can have a reply ?
