No input from H/Office

Just an observation :- 

There is an underlying subject on a number of current threads which appears to be of concern to many members of this forum. 

The subject of price rises both on site-night charges and annual membership prices. 

During those discussions there has been absolutely no input from Grinstead to the concerns raised by those members. 

In my opinion, much of the uncertainty and frustration shown on those threads could have easily been alleviated if Head Office had posted a clear explanation on this forum  as to why those increases were necessary. 

It's down to 2 way communication. It only would take a few minutes.   Smile

The best way to grab the attention of any HQ is vote with your feet. Thats what I do. CC sites are way to expensive for me. After all, I paid thousands on a van with all facillities, so why would I want to share a shower and toilet with strangers, then pay extra for the privalege? Doesnt add up to me.

The moderators or whatever they call themselves obviuosly follow the threads very carefully, maybe they could highlight or send email to head office asking for comment ????

 

The moderators do frequently flag discussions to me and we do often reply. However, recently there has been a lot of leave due to Christmas but hope to have some more repsonses ASAP.

Thank you Rowena. In fairness I dont think I was the first to spot the mistake, but instead of coming on here and making a fuss about it, thought it best to email you!WinkHappy

Think it would be a good idea if the club ( board of directors ) were to announce at the AGM their intentions / reasons for the following years price increases ( a form of manifesto ).

Thank you all for your contributions to this thread. A special thanks to our head office representative Kimberly for her prompt reply.

Looking forward to more input from h/office to this forum.

In my humble opinion there should not be an expectation that CT could be a channel to drive comment to HQ - as I do not believe this is one of the primary objectives of CT.

Any ad-hoc interaction with HQ should be comsidered as a bonus and not the norm'

Just my 2 cents....
