An official Caravan Club Facebook page

FB would have been an excellent way to keep in contact with members when the website went down.

Great post WH.  I'm guessing that CC Ltd wouldn't want to see critism about the company service on something as open as Facebook.

I've learned that if I have a problem with a company I go on their Facebook page and put a less than complimentary post on and that usually does the trick.   

Having a Facebook page, particularly if open to anyone can become something of a double edged sword, ask the C&CC or even John Lewis or Marks and Spencer. It can generate more negative publicity than positive. I would be interested to know how members would benefit when virtually all the information they might need is available on this website? Having said all that it would be interesting to know why we don't embrace Facebook.

That's a large part of the problem, David, it being on this website which tends to be here today and gone tomorrow. 

I'm not a fan of FB, though, and wouldn't use it.

For those who do use Facebook simply put 'The Caravan Club' in the search box and you will find loads of pages, most Centres and Regions now have their own, some open some closed to members only and there was until fairly recently an official Club page too just as there is for the C&CC, sadly it was little used though so often remarked upon as bland and not worth the bother.

I don't think that that was the reason that it was closed down. COTY come to mind!!!!

If it wasnt then it was certainly some coincidence wasnt it?

You would think that the CC being considered as a rather superior organisation would have stayed clear of Facebook and used Twitter. 

The "Just shampooed the Hamster" type of communication is perhaps not what some CC members would consider appropriate. 

However everybody to their own so I'm quite laid back about F/B -- If the CC decides to go down that route I could easily set up an F/B login to see the latest news.

Reading the Latest mag yesterday it would seem that the days could be numbered for this forum as it is anyway.

We may well consider ourselves 'superior' but that doesn't mean we have to be snobs too   !!! and I have never seen a post on facebook about shampooing a hamster - did I miss it? surprising, something like that would surely do the rounds for years, must be all the current affairs discussions displacing it at the moment I suppose.

Well they've embraced Twitter

However there are two accounts - one allegedly media and info and the other embracing all elements of the lifestyle.  I've stopped following the second one as it's been irrelevant to my lifestyle for some time
