I never use libline, I rely on updates here on pigeon basics, always well ahead of liblinehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif and it's freehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif

Our libline rebate comes back to the Fed and I think it's about £200. I try not to ring it too often, and when I do I post it up here for others info., as its a lot cheaper getting info off a website than a premium rate telephone line.

As secretary of our club I get a call from the Fed.Sec.telling me when the birds are liberated,I then call everyone who as sent to give them the information costs them 10p.

I believe the Lib line to be beneficial to the organisation financially, and each one has its own reasons for needing the income from it, and it doesn't cost that much money.

The pigeon sites have HALVED the income from the lib line service for almost everyone, this can only be negative in the long run. jmo.

when I use to call the lib line, I got frustrated, the amount of times they quoted a time for next update, and when I phoned back , just the same messagehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif at least on the site you are kept well upto datehttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif

Sorry John don't see why my members should pay an outside organisation to tell them lib time for a Fed / club they have paid fees to be a member of.

 

I have never phoned lib line and never will for any club.

i was just thinking that if all members subscribe to the text service at say a fiver a year then the organisation would im certain make as much if not more than at present-25 racesx60p= £15 and with holdovers and updates i would thing it costs around £1.80 a race,multiply that by 25.

just a thought(prob.read Joes in BHW and it was in the back of my mind as a good idea)

The problem is paying a fee it only takes one to pay the fee then he texts all others for free they text there mates that's why Joe's failed JMO

 

Why do we have to pay a fee we are paying our membership fee

If anyone wants to send me £10 I will provide the following service.

 

1 Text withing 30 mins of liberation advising lib time and wind.

2 Text also if the birds are held over.

 

All I require is a £10 cheque payable to T TIPPER and a letter advising me of your Federation name and mobile number. I will refund 25% payment to your relevant federation too.

 

Its not difficult. If I get at least 20 people on board I will be prepared to do it.

 

LEAVE RINGING LIBLINE TOO ME! SIT BACK AND WAIT FOR THE TEXT .

 

HAPPY DAYZ!

OK let me explain it to you in simple terms as you seem to have missed the whole point. The service offered is to fanciers with MOBILE PHONES hence the reason I would text them. Ringing the libline cost and absolute fortune off a mobile and many mobile networks bar 090 numbers! If you require a more in depth explanation or would require a breakdown of the mobile network costing on each network PM me your mobile number and I would be happy to TEXT you. If your not interested fair enough but theres no need to critisize my offer Ian is there ? :huh:

 

Regards

Hi Tenny

 

Not critisizing you offer why can it not be done by the Fed or Club as they are first to know what is going on (or should be) I know some clubs give out as little info as possible so members have to keep phoning in

 

Cheers

Thats exactly my point! Why keep things from the members . This thread asked earlier how much money goes back to the fed? Nobody seems to know. I ring about 12/15 fanciers every week when I know the birds are up. Nobody is happy with the libline sevice , costs,update frequency etc..

My offer is for the fanciers who gets fed up ringing every hour. Just leave it to me and I TEXT them. not a bad offer for 40pence a week(based on 25races)

TENNY
