Got in the mail a letter from Trent with an A4 poster thanking me and the Tiger Army.

Whilst I like the 'personal' letter but it is a waste of money - I'd rather have a membership reduction or any discount and get this via email.

PS. It did include CCJ as our future in it too.

I felt the same. Felt like an insincere marketing stunt to appease no discounts on memberships. Rather have received nothing.

Yep, waste of paper and time, but worse than this, we have 4 memberships in the house, and oldest daughter who is staunchest supporter, (behind me:)) ) didn't get one.
So careless from membership department.

I hate this stuff, its a sign of incompetence. It shows no feel for supporters nor any marketing acumen. The idea and execution was terrible.

Has she just turned 16 Bigwow?

That happened to one of my kids and it turned out they had become too old for the family membership so were just dropped off without any notification at all.

Was only when I rang up they told me the situation and offered an alternative membership. I wonder how many they lose each year through that incompetence?
No, she's 20. Went through the turning 16 thing a few years back, with no prior warning.

Her letter arrived yesterday, curiously.

I am yet to see the letter, or the membership pack. Figure they will turn up sooner or later, the funds left the credit card a couple of weeks ago.

Last year we got our AFLW badges both in one letter, addressed to my daughter. Not sure how they work that out, still, I suppose they might be confused since she has my partner's surname, is well into adulthood now, and her membership changed from concession to full membership after finishing at uni. At least it all comes to my place so I can see what's going on. I reckon I'll be paying for her membership for a while yet.

Got a vague email promising membership packs 'soon' , debits have started from credit card, and new increased rates.

Enthusiasm for on-going membership is waning.
