Why do you have to own a mobile phone to join CC?

We missed touring more than we thought we would and have decided to re- join. I thought (Like Pliers) it would be a case of pressing a couple of buttons on the lap top and off you go.

Good Heavens, I don't remember posting that!

We were away touring a couple of years ago and even after supplying our mobile no-one rung it to say the site we were about to visit had flooded....luckily we heard it on the news and found somewhere else. I'd just put a row of 0000s and see if that works.

I am fairly certain that my mobile phone has been in Athens airport for a couple of years but life seems to go on OK. The Club may have tried to ring but it can't have been that important..

Ah yes just like my friends mobile which is down one of the loos at Bournemouth Airport, I don't think the CC have got through yet.

Sorry Alwaysright, this proves you really don't have to have one. (By the way I like the new avatar.)

Appologies I thought that was what you meant when you wrote "Just wondered, 2 red stars, but still can't manage to join the Club"

I don't think there is any compulsion to provide a mobile number and if you don't think it would be in your own interest I am sure the Club will be happy to work round that. The Club won't phone you in anything other than an emergency so I don't think you need fear for your time. They have my mobile but the only time they have contacted me on that phone is when I have requested them to do so.

the club have my mobile number and when we were a way one year the wardens at Tewksbury abbey  rang us to say that the site was flooded and no one could use the site . this  was for an overnight stop so we were able to find an alternative site.  malc

I am sure that is the case David. But it does beg the question "Why does it have to be a compulsory field for the on line application?"

You mean there are members out there without a mobile?
