Does anybody have a problem with the delivery of the club magazine. My  magazine delivery can vary up to three weeks. It used to be as regular as clockwork but over the last twelve months it is very sporadic. I am also a member of the camping and caravanning club and their magazine comes on time every month in fact I have received the June issue today but i have not yet received the May issue of the caravan and motorhome club magazine. What is going on?

    The club blames the post office, but as you say ccc mag arrives on time! Maybe the PO has a downer on the Club?!

    Shouldn't the club be putting pressure on Royal Mail if Royal mail are at fault. The club must be paying a lot of money for this delivery service.

    It is also pointless for advertisers highlighting a particular event if the advert is displayed after the event has passed.

    i think I recall it is printed on the Continent, is Brexit and additional border controls the problem?

    I have also started a thread about this today. 

    My son is also a member and his normally comes on time, ours is usually weeks late, same address so why are they blaming Royal Mail?

    Or does the DG really think that the RM systems are clever enough to make sure ours is delayed but not our sons!!

    It feels a huge insult that the management think we are stupid enough to swallow this excuse.

    Son's May magazine arrived today, first time his is late, there is no sign of ours.

    I just wish the club would be honest and tell us what the problem is.

    The online chat lady today was awful, and even had the audacity to say we will unite against Royal Mail. I know they are fed what to say by management, but this is a new low from CAMC management.

    Have you definitely got your June one today, not a late May one?

    Because the online chat lady told me today that June isn't yet available, so she could order me another May copy, but not yet June.

    Do you think if we all request a % refund of our yearly subscription they might start taking the issue seriously?

    No, that would just be wishful thinking wouldn't it!

    Yes received june issue of caravan and camping club magazine on 16/05/24 and this comes on time or a little bit earlier in this case every month so why can't caravan and motorhome club get their magazine delivered.

    I haven't received the last few magazines. No big deal in the grand scheme of things but I decided to check my preferences and lo and behold my preference for receiving the magazine had changed to a "No".

    Now, I haven't changed my preferences since they were set up and I have been receiving the magazine continuously for the last 34 years so why had the preference been changed? It will undoubtedly remain a mystery but if others are missing the delivery then check your preferences just in case.

    Just seen a post on Facebook which reminds us that the November and December editions will be a combined "bumper version" according to the Club. Apparently there was an announcement in a previous edition. It seems it will be distributed later than the normal time scale for the November magazine.
