I have suggested they allow monthly DDs at say £2 per month = £24 per year - OR - if you're paying yearly £20 and consider it a discount.
I wouldn't miss £2 per month and if it gives them another £4 per year then great.

They don't.
I'm not certain, but I would think they would need a team to manage that EC.
More salaries out of member fees?? Nah.

Serious contribution:
Administration costs would be pretty high I'd think EC.
Less than Serious contribution:
Nonetheless, I'd be happy to advance the annual sum in consideration for my usual, 212% APR interest rates . . . . . . . ????

Another point of interest, if you pay by cheque, credit card you can also make a voluntary donation, no such facility highlighted when you pay by direct debit, had to write a covering letter to explain difference between direct debit amount, £20, and amount i'd actually put in box for bank.

The charges vary according to the bank or processor, it can be as little as £1 per batch of DDs but I have known charges of £20 per batch. plus a charge per transaction of between 15p to 50p.

"So how much do the banks charge for DD payments then?.
Nat West Business a/c currently charge us .40p for each DD.

Just talk to us.....and stop acting like high flying business men.
Stand up for what anglers really believe in............oh ******! the first bit will have to do for now
In all fairness there was a fair bit of personal communication on here prior to getting launched, doesn't happen as much now except via press release.
That said if I saw Mark Lloyd logged in as much as you, I'd be on the blower telling him to get some work done.

The work processing the current membership by par-time staff and unpaid help is stretching AT resources as it is, to give everyone the option of making 12 payments would cause absolute chaos.
My club gives the option of 6 monthly Standing Order payment, but I don't encourage it, and even for the small numbers involved it is a pain in the backside to administer.
The current AT yearly DD system couldn't really be much easier and surely accounts can be managed so as not to cause any problem when the yearly £20 is taken out.

I do a 60hr+ week ( at least 3 nights away from home) before i come on here (10hrs fishing today tho) ..................if he did as much CONSTRUCTIVE work as i do for those who pay him then AT would be in a better state than it is now.
I will say it again....i think there should be less playing the high powered businessman and more getting into the sticky stuff...............or move over and let someone who doesn't mind getting their hands dirty do the job.
