Re membership fees

[KenL]

What, how is value for money affected by what sime one else pays?

Sir, this BMW is £40 000, but a woman can have it for £20 000.

Yes, because buying a car and joining a Golf Club are so similar.

I take it you are afraid of debate, you appear quite insecure for a grown man.

Have women historically been prevented from buying BMWs?

Happens at my club.
To join !
Female £1350 no joining fee.
Male £2700 .

That’s not equality

It seems this is allowed by clubs if there is a good reason to do so but they must be able to justify it in court if neccessary.

All things being equal, is your club breaking the law?

Seniors absolutely shouldn’t be getting any discount.

If there was a bus, I'd go to my club with my free bus pass that you are subsiding

Cheaper for women

I’m considering joining my local club, which costs around £ 900. They have a deal for the first year, £ 450, but only for women. I haven’t got a problem with this type of deal, but would’ve thought they were on shaky ground legally in this day and age?

It’s still the same the last time it was discussed

No problem with that if it’s stops a few driving who shouldn’t be!

Can you explain how that answers my question. Regardless if I wanted the BMW and thought I was being offered one at a good price for me I would buy. What someone else might pay would not affect my decision..

Must admit if I new a woman could buy it for half the price. I'd get the Mrs to buy it.

No, I can't be bothered.

 

[doublebogey7]

No, I can't

Fixed it for you.

I just think it is unfair that they get 5 day rates with 7 day benefit. If we as a single person pay for 5 days membership you are excluded from playing in weekend and in trophy competitions. Surely if you are paying the same you should get the same benefits. This isn’t equality.. You aren’t allowed to get a discount if you buy 5 raffle tickets …

Generally joint members seem to have more competition to enter and they tend to play more casual golf too..

I think it’s unfair I pay for a 7 day membership but someone paying for a 5 day can play more than me.

I don't agree with you either. Can I be added to your blocked list please?

He's going to have a very quiet forum at this rate.

No more of a disgrace than getting a discount for being retired or married.

Or young!!!!!!

Boooooooooo. Lol

We stopped the five day memberships years ago for that reason.
