And all for 2 quid a week.. thats 104 quid a yr. Perhaps you did the math and the saving wasn't worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrs Court Red Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 UNfortuantly this is not the first time this has been said to people over the phone by salesmen, I seem to remember a thread about a year back with people saying the same regarding the "support" thing.

bringbacktherobin Posted June 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 I know codered, I'm a complete disgrace to the club.I might go down on monday and hand in my season ticket in the East End. Maybe join a few of my mates watching Man United or Arsenal on that magical thing they call a tv.Also i don't know how Lansdown can afford to live with all the money his picking up in intrest alone.

andy g Posted June 16, 2007 Report Share Posted June 16, 2007 Sadly, it sounds similar to the hard-sell everyone got at the "mystery announcement night" at Ashton Gate.When are they going to start treating fans with respect and not as simply as a means to make more money ?

BCAGFC Posted June 17, 2007 Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 When are they going to start treating fans with respect and not as simply as a means to make more money ?When a certain CEO gets the boot, he is on another planet with regards to the 'ordinary fan'.He has only dealt with upper class/businessmen in his life and thinks everyone has '000s of £s that they can spend on BCFC, when will he learn that people have their own minds to decide if they can afford things or not and that we don't need people pestering us on the phone/email/mobile etc.Personally, I can't wait for the next BCFC Customer Survey but I won't be holding my breath.BCAGFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Maesknoll Red Posted June 17, 2007 Admin Report Share Posted June 17, 2007 I had a call from a guy the other day, same thing, launched into a rehearsed spiel, would I like to support the club etc, when I managed to get a word in and inform him that I've been a member of City Society, City 2000 and now the Foundation (not sure of the need, for so many reinventions of the same thing) he seemed stumped.Why isn't the City Foundation database supplied to these cold callers to avoid wasting their and members time.
