Excuse for a week site

I feel very sorry for all those CL owners and those that have wanted to look for and book a CL. The "Essential Maintenance" has been in effect for over 24 hrs and I wonder in that time now many prospective CL clients have given up the idea of booking a CL and have found alternative sites? It would not be so bad had we, as customers, had been informed of the down time but just to shut down the site is treating us and CL owners with no respect. I have not yet tried to access the CL section and hopefully it will be accessible whereas the club bookIng site has  huge queue at the moment. The very worst website I have experienced.

Don't access it from the main booking site. Use other routes. I looked in via the home page, eg the one accessed top right, green box with three white lines and scroll down, everything worked well.

Tried that, and look by county, but once looking at individual site, still took me to booking queue!

Look up CL phone number in handbook, pick up telephone. Big problem?

What about all those new CLs that have come on line since the SD came out, and those that have closed too. The old map is so out of date and falling apart from regular use, so no good going there. I do regularly try and update the SD but there is only so much info one can write because of lack of room, and phone numbers take up too much space.

Don't have that green box with the white lines on my kindle, brue. Any more suggestions? Tried using Search for a Site listing and ended up in a queue again. The app is still spinning from trying to access access it last night. What a pig's ear of a site, a complete farce!!

It’s a complete shambles, unless you know how to circumnavigate some of the problems with the site. I went in via the England-County-etc route. It’s a disgrace really, given that they now demand Membership payment from every potential new CL owner. They certainly aren’t getting much back.

Is it any wonder a number of CL owners banded together and established their own booking system.

I just tried to check a CL I’m travelling to today and whatever way I tried to access it via the club I ended up in the waiting queue.  CLs have never been part of the clubs booking system so why now.

Oneputt, you need to access a different way to get website to work. Don’t click on the red “book a CL” box, but scroll down, and click on a country, England, Wales, Etc….. This then gets you into Counties, then towns, then list of CLs. Frustrating having to do it this way, but at least it’s a way in not linked to the booking system. Hope this helps👍

Maybe people don't want to carry a dirty great book around with them to get information which is supposed to be available on the website/app?
