    Membership Question

    Morning all. Just a quick question regarding memberships. About 2 months ago Mrs Claret and myself sent off our applications for Melbourne-based Swans Memberships for next season. Shortly thereafter the money was taken out of bank account. This will be our first season as members.

    My question is - should we have heard any response at all by now? I realise that things like hats, membership cards etc won't be available for a while yet, but is there a letter or email that gets sent out saying something like "Thankyou for your membership application and we are glad to have you on board for season 2006. Further details to folow."

    Apart from the money coming out of our account I have no way of knowing if I filled out the form correctly etc.

    Thanks in advance.

      I paid mine over the internet and got the confirmation and printed that off. Perhaps you could ring the Melb club and ask and see if they will provide a receipt.

          I can't comment on the Melbourne side of things, but in Sydney my account was debited almost straight away after sending in my renewal, and I receive a preliminary membership pack with fixture magnet, keyring, redemption card for cap etc in the time I was in NZ (2 weeks from Christmas).

          I'd say it would be worth giving the Melbourne office a quick call to find out what's happening there...

          If you cannot compete for the premiership, it's better to be young and exciting than middle-aged and dowdy.

              I paid by phone but didnt receive any such thing. Did everyone else in Sydney receive this?

                  Yeah, I got mine sometime around Xmas. I was very surprised that anything came so early.

                          I haven't paid yet. The kids keep nagging me about it.

                          From memory last year, we didn't get anything until it got closer to the season starting.

                                      Which member of your family did you exchange for it?

                                          I am in the same boat. Have re-signed and have had some money taken out, but so far have heard nothing from the club. I'm not really worried, but I did take a gamble and put in for an upgrade to Premiership club. It would be nice to know if I made it in before the cut-off for that. I will do the sleep-out again (was kinda fun) with no problems, but my back will be grateful if I don't have to. I threw all my gear out so I don't know what the prices were for Premiership vs. Full Club member. I'll just keep on waiting and let it be a surprise

                                              I got mine just after christmas too, but they were very quick taking the money out in the first week of December!

                                                  Three members here received the packs with fixture card, medallion, stickers etc we await membership cards usually end of February of Sydney.- we paid by cheque

                                                  Other members paid by phone - Redbacks like us - husband received pack but none for wife.
