Thanks for coming back to me. I appreciate that their are three events back to back but the money is taken out straight away and over two weeks is a long time to wait to be refunded your money. I think a big issue is when you seem to email Showmasters you don't see to get a response back which was my personal experience when sending three emails in a month.
Thanks Too Tall was great help on the day I think an issue for me is that the benefits of the Gold pass are reducing. Really the main and most important thing is fine and by that I mean priority queuing for photoshoots. I also believe that Showmasters needs to communicate amendments to the Gold Pass as well which will help. As an example the description for the Bournemouth Gold Pass described a Gold Pass area for Gold Pass holders. Now I understand that this was probably dropped due to lack of space, lack of Gold Pass sales but this was part of the product being sold and no communication was made.
Similarly it advertised that Gold Pass members would get priority seating for talks. This was then changed two weeks before to all talks for everyone are now on a first come first served basis again changing part of the product that a person has paid £173 as another benefit for the Gold Pass.
I work in the insurance industry and if I sold a product to a customer and then when I handed the document over I said oh by the way it no longer covers you for two of the covers you asked for I would be crucified.
I am not trying to cause an issue I am just trying to point out flaws that could be resolved especially with the Gold Pass. Thanks for responding anyway it is appreciated. :)
