Spent £30 for a years access to the clubs Wi Fi, and have been swindled 
Out of 8 sites only one had a slow ,but acceptable level of performance, the other Seven where that bad that most of the time the pages timed out ,some times it took ages to simply log on 
When you bought this up to the site managers , you got the same reply. it was members streaming that was the issue 
If that is the case , then the club should block streaming on sites where the Wi Fi is not up to it

I’m not sure why there is such a problem with folk mentioning tethering, or not as the case may be. It is surely an alternative to the currently dire Wi-fi the OP is having problems with. I access CT on an iPad, I can either log on to the site Wi-fi, now we’ve moved on its friendly Wi-fi and although slow is currently working for me to post.πŸ˜‡ If it wasn’t I would connect to the OH’s iphone on O2, which seems to have a decent signal. Mine on EE although saying 4G is showing a download of only 0.3 MB. Of course they do sell pads with the ability to install a SIM and then of course it would not be necessary to connect or tether to another device. Basically I use what is best and cost effective for my purpose and currently that isn’t CAMC WiFi.

I tether too, Steve. It's the way to go in my opinion and I knew you’d see the issue with site Wi-fi one dayπŸ˜€

The problem arose due to misquotes/misunderstandings and not with the term itself.

Whilst CAMC have a "pay for it if you want it" policy with WiFI, it is regrettable that it does not extend to EHU or, indeed, the toilet block which is invariably accessed with a key.

I suppose the counter argument might be is that the EHU is very good and the toilet block are excellent and certainly very clean so worth' paying' for while the wifi is not?

Does any major site provider have 'pay extra' for the toilet block?

A sort of "Pay as you Go" type of thing?

well yes but I'm thinking of a blanket extra charge for access to the shower/toilet block as CY would like, or rather opt out of paying.

I've looked a few major sites (and the other club) and the cost 'includes' access to the facilities block.

I've certainly been on sites where we've had to pay for showers, put I can't recall ever ever being asked to 'spend a penny' - or whatever the inflated price now is... πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ
