Exploiting the members

But none of that means members are not allowed to express an opinion.

Absolutely, we’re all entitled to an opinion rather than a brick wall characterised by ‘like it or lump it’.

If that is aimed at me, although off topic but I agree, but at least get one's 'facts' right and use the right words? Perhaps even keep on topic, although it's easy to drift? There is no 'exploitation'?  One can say club prices are too high for them, but that is completely different to being exploited?

Or do you think the club (and all other holiday companies, ferries, airlines...) who put up prices at peak times or even hours of the day are exploiting people? I know you say you can't 'afford' club prices and there is membership fee to pay but really is that exploitation K? Do you personally feel exploited? As you posted on it do you feel exploited that your views are not know to committee members? And if you and others do why keep re-joining the club and still use club sites?

I certainly wouldn't and can't understand those that do.

In my view CC Ltd should not raise its prices to exploit the holiday periods and those that have little choice but to use them.  It is entirely understandable if a commercial company takes advantage of a particular situation to makes additional profit for its shareholders.  I simply don’t understand why a club would do the same as it is only exploiting its members.  I’m a member of a number of clubs all of which provides benefits and services at less than I would pay to purchase the same products and services on a purely commercial basis.

No skin off my nose, since price of club sites (or any others) no longer affects me, but I'm confused by your frequent reference to "CC Ltd" followed by criticism that it's not acting as "a club" DD?

Which do you consider it to be - a business, making business decisions or a club with member benefits?
