Kmcalpin Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 I logged in today both on my phone and PC to try to change my monthly subscription level. Logging in was easy on my Samsung but much more difficult on the website. However I followed instructions about changing my monthly payment but found it a very cumbersome and clunky process. I was also advised months ago that once the app was up and running members could set their own amounts i.e. £8, £14 monthly or whatever. However when I tried to alter my amount this morning I discovered that you are still limited to specified amounts £5, £10, £20 etc. I ended up reinstating my original amount. Presumably the app is still very much work in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 The app still doesn't even recognise me as a member despite being a paid up member since the first year and signing up with the same email address I used when I joined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xavi Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 On a not entirely related topic I e:mailed press@motherwellfc.co.uk when the communication came out about voting for the goal of the season and player of the year to ask why shareholders were not allowed to vote, but didn't get the courtesy of a reply. I also passed the message on via the office in person but that hasn't generated a reply either. As a shareholder I often feel we are forgotten or undervalued if we are not members of the Well Society. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCRUM is just some fancy words for only building what you have time to build. If it's not working, it's usually because the people running it don't really understand it (like not including time for testing, or prioritizing the wrong things). Extreme Programming on the other hand is mince in its purest form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCRUM was just gaining popularity when I retired from banking IT, it was last in a long line of things that made me decide I'd had enough.

Lots of Cobol still around when I was last involved (about 17 years ago). The American banking system is still quite archaic now, thanks to interstate and Federal laws dating back to the Prohibition era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
