Early on it was stated that, with 194,000 members, each member would only need to make a small contribution.

 

The fact is that the vast majority of members are not active, having joined to get their problem solved and then not come back.

 

I would suggest that the active membership is probably no more than 5,000 and hence the contributions required from each member is much more than you might think.

Is there a siteteam person about who can give the approximate number of active members?

[mich7k]

Just sent a donation guys will try to send some every couple of weeks ok:)

[blipvert]

Hmm, i think that figure is a little low in all honesty, i would say that there is a lot more than 5000 active members

 

I will see what i can find out on this though

[stardust_john]

Will send postal order this week.

No posts after mine so gave me a cause for concern

[alanalana]

I too will be making a donation come payday....to be honest I am eternally grateful to the CAG as without it, my life would have been turned upside down, even when I haven't been able to make a monetary donation, the absolute very least I could do was to try and help others in similar situations....the support (both legal and moral) I received was truly unbelievable.

I have put my twopenneth in, and will continue to pop money into the pot whenever I can. This site is a lifeline to so many people, me included, who without it may not even be here. I answer my phone without fear now, I actually hope that it is a DCA on the line, as I know that they cannot do anything like they threaten to do. Fuzzybobble, Fred Basset and the others make me laugh out loud and it would be a travesty if this site was not here.

Just received a thank you from 'Bank Fodder' for my donation.

[Tila]

Cheque in post, will be sending £10 a month for the forceable futue.

 

Good Luck!!

Fiver sent via paypal.

 

Without this site I don't think I'd still be here.

 

To the wealthy backer - please reconsider, people's lives, health and homes are at risk without this site!

[Cheeseybob]

Hi. I have just paid £5 to paypal, I am just sorry it wasn't more, you have been a very helpful site and hope you continue to grow.

Absolutley agree BB,

 

Its a shame that such things happen, but alas these things happen.

 

Sadly though, the person behind this doesnt seem to care too much about these things as if they did they would not be conducting such an action in my personal opinion,

 

Still lets hope the CAG can get through this

No doubts this wealthy backer is also a director of a DCA, and probably thinks this is the best way he can stop people getting to know their rights.

[Bookworm]

Long story short... I have paid a fiver right now as well... Apparently I have just matched Spicey's fiver, so if he hasn't coughed up, can someone on the team please let me know so that I can send Crusher after him? Thanks.

[Mr lex]

A BIG THANKS TO YOU ALL !!

 

While it may not be possible to thank everyone individually,

 

Your CAG names and Paypal names will be different,

 

Thank you everyone so far.

[Bookworm]

Your CAG names and Paypal names will be different,

Yes, but there is a little box on the donation bit which asks you what your nick is. ;-)

[foolishgirl]

But like lots of others, Bookworm, I always seem to forget it.

 

However BF still thanks me c/o email - v. considerate

[PossVox]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to donate 20 quid but the PayPal page won't load up!

Will keep trying.

We need little icons by our names saying "donated to the cause" cause that may just give some people the nudge to donate (after all, you don't want to NOT have that icon by your name if everyone else has it!)

A nice idea KER, but some people simply don't have any spare cash...
