New booking system with deposits

Morning

It seems getting anything changed or removed on facebook is a nightmare Harry. We've experienced this in the past when there was abusive stuff which was personal about us. Took and age to sort.

It really goes to show that ANY announcements unless they are from the club are just gossip. Unfortunately people believe anything what they read without making sure it's fact or not.

Take this alleged go live date, not official and not true.

Is this the Facebook group set up a good few years ago by some who were disillusioned by this forum?

There are many groups nowadays ttda. Anyone can set up a group and play admin. Doesn't seem right to me that someone can use the club logo and make people think it's an official club group.

We have a staff group but we had to use a different logo on the front page!

Not sure about the FB group as I'm not a member of any of them.

I did however see a response on a CAMC advert, (on FB) from a CAMC member of staff  to a CAMC member that the new booking system will be rolled out on the 8th of August. 

Thanks JK👍 I don’t use Faceache, or Twitter.

Nor do I ttda, I'd sooner speak face to face

I have just checked both groups and neither now use official Club logos although one uses something which is similar but nowhere near the same so I wonder if the Club have indeed been in contact to tell them not to use any Club insignia? 

Those of us who have grown up over the years with traditional forums will find much of Social Media superficial. I don't like the way posts are made and immediately locked. I can understand if its duplication buy why not link to another discussion? The problem is that there is now a quite large body of the public that won't participate  in something like Club Together. They seem to want the instant reportage that Facebook offers and it is there on their phones. Fortunately not all Facebook groups are the same and many are very useful. One I quite like is Pitch and Park which lists sites where you can leave your vehicle on site and either walk a reasonable distance to a village or town or there is a bus stop near the site.

There is nothing about the official new booking launch on CAMC fb or twitter. Everyone can look in on this and read posts, even if not signed up.

I haven't signed up.

Have to say the club spends a lot of time responding to posts on fb, mostly photos sent in by members. On CT we are left to our own devices, and the topics are much more varied and interactive on here. 

Presume the booking launch will be sooner rather than later. Hope the membership gets some information beforehand!

I've just looked at all the popular sites for Devon and Cornwall and there seems to be more or less full availability for August and September I've never seen this before and its been the same all season, would the club really launch the new booking system now when it needs bookings desperately.

I phoned CAMC club about 3 weeks ago and was informed new system would go live today(8th August)..alas I still can't book past May 2023....this is leaving us in limbo so not good enough CAMC
