Subs are going up on the 3rd August

[nicholsong]

Subs have been the same price here for almost 8 years. On Monday they will go up a fiver a year, to £20. This rise plays an essential part in our plans to keep this the very best place for motorhome enthusiasts and continue to make it better and better.

I know from bitter experience this will make some of you moan, but please don’t do it here, if you don’t see the value, if you don’t want to pay, no one is forcing you to, just don’t renew when the time comes. No hard feelings from me. If you pay your subs with a PayPal standing order it will be automatically adjusted to the new rate.

It’s not all bad news, this is the first subs rise since we introduced Life Membership, so I imagine most life members will be delighted with this news.

Thanks

Is Paypal the only way to pay for 3 years as the annual renewal option can be by bank transfer.

I have not used Paypal for years and when I tried to login the authentification code did not arrive on my phone.

I am happy to pay to the bank details listed on the my annual subscription page.


I assume the 3 years will run from my renewal ate in Dec '21.

Having visited the delightful Eddie Van Bitz this week for a Growler fitted, I saved nearly a Life Membership with the Fun Discount! Worth every penny( and that for a Yorkshireman

Just paypal'd 3 years worth due towards end of Aug Does that come with a Parker pen ? Micheal sent me a nice one

 

[carolyn]

Just paid for 10 years. I couldn’t bring myself to do the Lifetime one as it felt like tempting fate, might be something to do with my other invite today. That one was for bowel cancer screening! Happy days.

 

[Newfie]

Jim does the like mean if I go for the 3 year that 3 years will start in 2022?
thanks.

 

[Pekepal]

[houdini]

Strange positive reactions to this increase. If the cost of staying one night on a campsite increased overnight by 33% I suspect some would suggest the campsite owner was "going for a touch"?

 

[irnbru]

I'm definitely delighted. I bought my life membership not long after renewing my yearly sub, but I reckon im due to be breaking even soon.

 

[Gaston aires]

I just bought another three years. I think I had a few years in the bag as well.

[Stewart J]

Just paid for 3 years presume this will add onto my present subs which would auto renew June 2022, have been into my PayPal account and cancelled the auto yearly renew.

 

[Otter Spotter]

Worth it just for old-mo and his jokes, he is my hero, even went to Weymouth to try and bump into him. Strange that he went away at the same time.

I twigged it now that’s why Old-Mo keeps moving, he doesn’t want to have his fans knocking on his door

I twigged it now that’s why Old-Mo keeps moving

I am very sorry to have to say....

The quality of my jokes will likely go down hill...

Due to having to search cheap web sites for my jokes...

Blame Jim....

Not me.....

 

[WESTY66]

Well this post is a hit Jim the money is rolling in now,should have the heading 'ka-ching' . You can now have a brill weekend.

Cheers Cris

He’s got to bankroll all the food and beer at his rally in September somehow

 

[Chod Jacqui]

Great value club, just added 3 years, thank you for all you hard work!

 

[RandallC]

Hope I live long enough to get the value out of my £20.

Why do you think so many folks sign up for life membership?

Just hoping to play the % when the dice get rolled.

 

[Norfolk Nige]

I'm not normally in favour of a paying forum and this is the only one I'm prepared to pay for.
It's got to be one of the best forums going, seems a bit strange the owner being the only moderator but it works because he is fair and only really clamps down on the idiots.

 

[Nigel L]

Just added a further 3 years
Great value, and one of the best decisions I made when I brought my first MH back in 2016.

 

[Coastal Cruiser.]

You could have least blamed Covid for the increase like everyone else has

Jimbo, I understand how expensive it is to run a site. I don’t think this is expensive at all for £20 a year! This is by far the best knowledge pool in the whole industry!

 

[Chris]

Me and old-mo got in early on the life membership scheme.

We were due to take our idea to Dragons Den but Mo lost his nerve.*


*plus he had no more tea urns.

 

[Lenny HB]

Think a 33% hike will chase a lot of yearly subscribers away

When you look at the amount of members and the amount that post even less the amount that do useful posts it will probably clear out a lot of the dross. No offence intended to those who are members and prefer to look rather than post.

 

[Simon Select]

Seems a lot 25% increase. 50,000 members x £20. Think I might have to move on next year. Only joined this year during a discount period. Shame because I do enjoy the site

Do you know the costs Jim has to put up with? It’s not a big jump to be honest. Also seems selfish to say I only joined for the discounts, nothing to do with the friendly community or the wealth of knowledge.

 

[TizzyOnTour]

Jim, thanks for the advance warning and option to pre-purchase future years at a discounted price. Lots of businesses wouldn't have offered that fair option and would simply have increased the price, with little or no warning.

A further 3 years just paid for to add on on at expiry of current. Thank you.
