Just wondering whether anyone has upgraded from being an Associate (free!) member of BD to a full member? I have done that very recently, but when I login to the BD website it still shows me as an Associate and asks me if I would like to upgrade!

I know it doesn't make any difference really, it is just a little niggle in the scheme of things :)

ETA - naturally the links in the BD e-mails don't work, I am quickly beginning to recognise that website maintenance is not BD's strong point :D
 
Paahhh hahahahahahah :D:D:D:D:D:D:D
A problem with the BD website, you say?! Whodathunkit?! :rolleyes:

(sorry. not the least bit helpful. but there are SO many problems with the website, you are just seeing the tip of the iceberg, :lol:) Is it stopping you from accessing anything? How recently did you upgrade? Might be worth just dropping them an email if it's been a while. The ladies in the office are very helpful, it's just the pants website that is not great.
 
LOL well the membership department probably don't like me much, since I queried them returning my WHOLE application form because I hadn't completed the correct direct debit mandate - which, surprise surprise, was not available on the website.....I had supplied my e-mail and phone number specifically to avoid that happening :)

Ah well, like I say just a small niggle, I shall get used to their rubbish website then :)

Works best if you treat the whole thing like a game. How many points do I have today? What levels has my horse competed at this time? Which competitions have I been to unwittingly? :D

OMG really? I hadn't realised it was THAT good :) :) :) This is going to be so much fun, thanks for the heads up SMJA :D
 
oh god, yeah, keep your own records, fgs. I keep all my test sheets and have a piece of paper at the front of the folder with a tally of the points we've received.
 
Ha Ha, believe it is not just the web site, it seems the office is understaffed. I wanted to confirm I was qualified for regionals, but the web site did not show months of results, so I called.

The people in the office told me that they had no idea if I had qualified or not! I wanted to know if I needed another outing, as I DID have relevant test sheets, but wanted to avoid problems if any results were "lost" (yes, that has happened to me before).

I find BHS also difficult to deal with, but BE has been efficiency itself, you are able to join, renew, enter all online instantly, and often results are up n the web site before we have even driven home!
 
They drive me bananas. I'm still waiting for my record to be updated from a comp a month ago !! I so wish there was an alternative dressage organisation that I could join. For what I pay (what we all pay!) I really would have thought they at least owe it to their customers to keep records accurate and up to date. In my job if I didn't update files accurately I'd be strung up !!! A bit peed off ?? Me ??
