UKC

The BMC sent me an email about the latest Summit,  #111, saying I needed to login to read it, and kindly supplying an email address and login number I could use. When I tried to log in using the email address and password the response from the BMC's system was: "Login failed because this edition is not covered by the dates of your subscription."

I am not a private member of the BMC. As a member of a climbing club affiliated to the BMC why am I having this problem?

Sshhhhhhh.... don't say those three letters! We've only just got UKB Shark off to sleep!!

Club members are only meant to be sent one issue of Summit a year (the March one which they send the membership card with following the membership renewal cycle), if you want the additional issues that is a benefit of individual membership:

Not sure why the email went out to people who aren't meant to have access to this issue of the magazine.

I'm getting the same thing.

BMC Incompetence?
Again... 🙄

I think club members get one hard copy of Summit as you say, but should be able to access the others online(?)

I’m getting the same message and am a paid up individual member.

Evidently I was a bit out of date, I asked to stop being sent the hard copies as an individual member several years ago as I had a stack of 5 unopened issues on my shelf.

It's the same for me this month, but I also had this error last month.  I emailed the summit-app@ email address on the 11th September but have no reply.  Emailed again this this morning, but before seeing this thread, and copied the office@ address in too.  I am also reassured that I am not the only one having this issue.

Me too. And last issue too.

Me the same. I'm a club member and I don't think I've received this notification for previous issues. Clearly something has gone wrong with the IT this time. I hope someone from BMC will be along shortly to explain.

Email from the BMC

"We’ve had some technical issues with the Summit Magazine system and they’re all sorted now. You will be able to login as normal"

And I can confirm access is working again for me.

Not working for me - plus why suddenly no printed edition...? Cost cutting?

Eco.

Now I never knew that. Thank you.

They have done it for the last couple of years. One edition a year being digital only.

Oh, I clearly haven't been paying attention.

If anyone want a hard copy you can have mine for free. It’ll be unopened…
