Did you get your BRCA renewal in the post?

[sosidge]

Question for all the individual BRCA members on the board... did you get your renewal form through the post as promised?

I didn't get mine.

yeah, 2 seperate copies of the same card

[Getpip]

If you mean card then no ..... Still waiting, although they claim it has been sent.
And here was me thinking it was the quick and reliable choice!

Footnote: It arrived today .. Yay!

Got mine ok just before christmas, sent cheque within a week, got card back just after the new year, always done it like this and always had card within a week, cant fault the service, been like that for the past 12 years now, still got every card since i started racing.

[hoppy]

6 weeks and still waiting as already said they have sent it
I now have to cancel meeting due to a lack of membership
NOT HAPPY

[arransmith27]

Renewed online last Wednesday, received card on Monday this week.

Ps. What's the difference between 'full' and 'affiliated' member?

"Full" means you join direct with the BRCA, "afiliate" means you have joined through your local club.

I am a "full" member, have been for a number of years, but didn't get my paper form through the post, despite an email from Chris Hardisty at the end of November (which I expect most members received) promising it within the next week.

Looks like I will either have to try my luck with that hopeless website of theirs, or become an affiliate member through my local club and let them deal with the paperwork!

Did mine via the website with Paypal. Didnt have any problems and the card came within the week. Then another arrived 3 or 4 days later !

You might not have to cancel. Is it a big meeting? If so get the club to check with the membership secretary that you have paid. If they are going to do this though, please ask them to send any queries in one job lot and not in dribs and drabs.

[learnerdriver]

Tried both methods, joined direct online with PayPal payment and new card came within 5days. Joined other members by sending forms in post with cheque and new cards have been sent within a week.

However, please remember that over 25000 applications are processed each year for uk alone plus any additional meetings outside uk and the majority of those applications in the first 4 months of the year !

So the system seems to be working :-)

[eyeayen]

Did it on the website on New Years day, website worked absolutely fine. Paid via paypal, card arrived in the post within the week which I thought was pretty good as no one was back to work until the 3rd.

Can't fault the service.

[mole2k]

I got mine within a week of the club submitting them!

[mark christopher]

affiliated mean also you can not take a position on a comittee within the brca sections, full allows you too

got mine from website within one week, also got paper reminder in post.

My 'Full' licence arrived in time for 2012 but I've yet to race

Applied online via the BRCA site

[RogerM]

Mine came 3 days after I renewed on line.

[dmsykes]

Sent both Paul's & my renewal back as soon as I got the renewal form, paid by cheque. This was prior to Christmas, still awaiting membership cards to arrive (11th Jan).

From the replies so far it seems a hit & miss situation, that's not usually the case as in previous years have had no problems.

[rondoolaa]

I ordered 2, 1 for my son and one for me, ordered them about 28th dec and got both our membership cards by 9th of January,

[jonathan may]

Mine came about 4 days after renewing online

[AmiSMB]

I did mine through BRCA website and came 2 days later.
