Problem connecting to Club Wifi

We're staying at Durham Grange club site and earlier in the week I paid for a year's Wifi subscription. It worked fine on Monday and most of yesterday and then, suddenly, I can't log in. I can connect to the Wifi but when I try to log in, I get a pink banner saying that I'm already logged in and access is denied. I can't use Internet. I've tried entering logout.net and logout.com in the url and neither does anything. I've tried connecting on my phone instead but the same happens. I've rung support (India, I presume) twice and am now waiting for them to call me back. They can only suggest what I've already tried: restarting my computer, clearing the cache, etc. Nothing seems to work. 

Has anyone else had this issue? Does anyone know of a solution? £30 seemed quite a lot for a year's internet but it's certainly a lot for 2 days!

The details about the wi fi upgrades and usage are HERE

However that doesn't help anyone who is having problems. I hope the Finberrys have made progress? smile

I see Durham Grange where the OP is staying is one of the upgraded sites, not that it helps if she can't log on to it🙁

I will if a new system is now in operation and EGH are not as seems quite often these days , updating any new information 🤔

I had an email advising of the change of ownership 👍

Ps glad you have confirmed that site offices with on site WiFi have an alternative Tel no as on two occasions I have been informed by site staff that site WiFi is nothing to do with them you need to ring Air Angel that was after I had done so,🤔☹️

I’m sure as someone in the know of the workings of the club and as you profess with friends at site level and higher up (as you’ve stated many many times in the past), you’ll already know that site staff can contact the WiFi provider on behalf of a customer if they continue to have issues after they have phoned said provider and have continued problems. That’s been the case for at least five years and will continue.

I can only guess that some of the staff you’ve spoken to maybe are in training or haven’t been paying attention?

As per your last paragraph it seems that is quite a problem?

One example for you,

We were at a site in East Anglia and the WiFi was terrible, when I spoke with the assistant site manager (long time as site support) he advised  it had been poor for some time  and as is normal to contact air angel which I did,

I got a call later from air angel to say that the site manager had been made  aware  but as the site was full it was just very slow?

The site was not full as it was end of season and all the grass pitches were.  not in use 

When I then called at the office I was advised to contact air angel again  as it.was not ("my responsibility?) But as I should know it will always be slow with a full site? 🤔

I gave up trying to make sense of that argument , we were leaving the next day anyway

I think it's useful that the site staff can help but out of hours users are left with no choice and have to make contact with the provider. The provider should be able to help on a stand alone basis.

These problems reflect why most of us make our own Wi-Fi arrangements.

I would imagine that the take-up of the service must now be minimal and perhaps CAMC merely use it as a 'loss leader' in order to be able to claim "Wifi Available".

It seems that anything IT related where CAMC is involved should be avoided like the plague.
