Yes as a lapsed member but...
You could of course become a new member and get pro rata AGB rates through your club, then you would have a clean slate to claim all the badges again
To be honest I am not worried about the £55.00 when I chose not to renew in September the rules were clear and I knew that it would be £55 whenever I renewed in 2021 but if you are offered a promotion and it has a clear time limit then clearly it should be honoured (there was no caveat that this offer could be withdrawn at anytime) It is the unprofessional and underhand way that they have handled this whole fiasco.
Also it would have been great if they had treated all members equally from the start.
As for communication they operate enough social media channels to keep everyone up to date and this major change should have prompted a News Headline, not just a quick change to a sub website page and a link from an email to a select few Club Secretaries when it also affects Direct Members.
I have been meaning to shoot more field maybe time for a change EAF NFAS for the summer.
