Resource 2024 Membership thread - it begins - with a kiss

[Del191229]

Ok - just had a proper look now. The email was sent to my partner, so she's just forwarded it to me. I think it's actually a very intricate phishing attempt. There's a lot more effort (and specific detail) than any I've seen before though.

One I got came direct to my main email. Which is unusual for club emails lol, normally they go to spam despite my adjusting my settings 69 billion times.

 

[Del191229]

Some suggesting it is a scam. I haven't seen it- What is the general subject?

Hang on I'll email you

My father in law is getting on (late 80s) and he'd almost decided to stop going to matches because he was unwilling to sit in the upper levels at Telstra Dome or Colonial (whatever??) these days. We were able to get some guest tickets to lower levels so he could go to a few games this season though so he still likes the thought of getting to games. He called me up to say that he decided to lock in as a cheer squad member as that would give him a level one seat and behind the goals is not so bad. So I though what the hell, I'll do that as well. I'm just hoping that the unruly behaviour, raucous shouting, one-eyed patriotism and over the top exclamations won't upset the other members of the cheer squad when we sit in with them!!!

 

[Quivorir]

Anyone not git their membership renewal email? When it's due to roll over because I don't think I've received it

Yeah I've had nothing.

 

[shintemaster]

Same. But then, I almost never do….

I did that for a few years - it’s a great way to sit level 1 behind the goals and be guaranteed you’ll be surrounded by North people, and in return you just have to barrack hard, stay to the end, and follow their few rules.

I wanted to change some details so replied to the email notifying me about automatic renewal.

The reply came with this on the bottom.

Caution: This email was sent from outside the company, please take care when clicking links or opening attachments unless you are certain that this email is safe.

So, being cautious I tried instead on the membership at nmfc.com.au

If I try to log on there it takes me to ticketmaster.


Anyone know if these are ok

It's fine. I've been in the social club reserved seats next door. They didn't seem to get too annoyed with my yelling

Anyway, even on a quiet day my voice is gone by half time these days. And darn it if I didn't even make it to quarter time this season on a couple of occasions before my voice faded



Back in the 90s my wife bought me a reserved seat for a few seasons as a birthday gift. It took me a while to cotton on, but I realised that my seat was behind the goals on L1.5 at the MCG while her seat with her parents was in the AFL reserve, almost at the exact opposite end of the ground. I'm still coming to terms with that.

Call the club and ask/let them know.

Don't click on any links.

Most likely the email is coming from Ticketmaster or something like that but I agree, call them up.

We were on the phone for a little while today but the membershio staff at North are saints (Hearts to hearts ) and they got us sorted. We got in because we were changing membership levels and also, my F-I-L had to use a different credit card. We decided to get plastic cards issued mainly as my inlaws are both 65 year members and that's printed on the card (I spat the dummy and revoked membership when Brad Scotts was appointed which is annoying to me as it would have been 40 years this year if not for that coach).

[Quivorir]

Still yet to receive anything from the club. Time for the annual call to see how they ****ed up my memberships this year.

 

[Chadwiko]

I had $30 taken out of my account today for membership, but my membership is (much) more than that.

Weird.

The club sent me a letter requesting my email….despite having recieved emails from them for 15 years.

The place is a genuine shitshow.

 

[Quivorir]

My money came out today. Still no email. I am sure I'll get one when they ask for money to pay for the ground refurb though.

 

[gokangas]

Mine came out today too. All good.

 

[ChopChopDigDig]

They charged me today, even after year after year complaining that they do. No renewal email or anything, just take 1300 bucks out.

My Prem club bay ticket has gone from 529 to 659 this year too. Just checked what I paid last year.
