What again?

I complained on Sunday about the service an was advised it is due to preparing the site for "B" day on the 7th Dec. They could save themselves the time and trouble by abandoning booking day!

'essential maintenance' can mean many things and cover a multitude of sins....

it can be 'essentially maintaining' the system, ensuring it is compatible with a future event.....inputting prices possibly...

or it could equally mean firefighting as a result of an 'incident'...

i suspect the former at this time of year, BUT howabout a few sensible words on the page we all see, telling exactly whats going on, why, and for how long...

its this 'void' of genuine, meaningful information that frustrates so many on CT.... 

When my online banking shuts down for an upgrade there are warnings for at least a week before that come up when you log in and have to kill to proceed. Would it be so difficult to adopt. They could put a do not show again button, so it would not come up again, if you found it annoying.

I'd complain if I was bothered, but I ain't. Life goes on whether CT exists or not, it's just a 'filler' in my life and when it is not there I fill that gap with something else.

Good thinking, Dave. It ain't a life or death situation and matters not at all in the grand scheme of things. I think it's being treated like mushrooms that annoys people. 

All the reliability of a British Leyland car. If it was essential maintainence, they should be able to give some notice. The absence of it suggests an inordinate amount of firefighting going on.

Yes CT is a wee bit flaky ------but-------

CT is the least important aspect of the vast CC retail organisation.  Would the CC be disadvantaged by removing CT from their website? . Not one bit, it would free up staff to help the profitable areas of the organisation.  I agree with the post from Dave FL2. 

There are many caravanning forums on the internet, so any caravanning issues could be dealt with on one of them.

It is not only CT that goes down, you cannot log on to do anything. Nothing of the Club's site is matter of life and death but it is being kept in the dark which is really annoying. They must be severly under resourced somewhere to keep having all this downtime. Other organisations have nowhere near the amount what goes on here.

I agree that for some with reasons different to mine it may affect you, but I have no need to log in and do anything until next year at least.

Maybe on that day next year that I need Red Pennant and maybe a booking near Folkestone, I will be annoyed if it happens, or I might just wait until the day after.
