Hi there, with regards to the above accouncement, does it mean it is better to wait until 1st January 2011 to join?
The membership renewal is fixed 1st Jan of every year, and not the join date?
Hi, Kamion, thank you for your inquiry.
All memberships expire on the 31st December because we don't have a full time finance department that monitors expiry, send renewal reminder or to coordinate payment/remittance process. It gets pretty handful when 150 members are making payment at different time of the year.
Different individual join the club for different purpose. There's one section in the application form where u need to fill in and it goes something like "what can the club expect from you", just to set the expectation right.
Few of those who signed up recently when I reminded them about the expiry date just to be fair to them, they responded that the benefit they get from the forum/club is well worth RM300 as it saved them thousands in repair cost. Some where simple DIY info, some where aided by our volunteer DIY sifu, some were as simple as not going to a cut throat workshop or part shop. They learn more about their ride, the peace of mind they gain from the info sharing among members of the club itself is priceless.
So the true value of the RM300 in your hand only you know.
I have 3 sign up this month so far and yes, all aware its going to expire end of the year.
Some even commented the starter pack itself is worth over RM300 in perceived value.
You money your choice.. :wink:
Looking forward to see u onboard on 1st Jan 2011 if not this year.. :top:
