But the old system we were using on civi worked fine for sending out reminders when
membership went into grace?
Thanks,
Mike

A notice about your membership status has been automatically included at the bottom of
every newsletter sent out by WMUK in the past 12 months at least.
For example the last one I have saved said: "Date of end of membership term:
2015-10-02 | Your Membership Status: Current" (I will check that as I think it should
say 2014)
Jon has already indicated that moving forwards specific emails about membership expiry
will be sent as soon as the technology allows.
[please note this message is sent in a person capacity, but my personal email account is
down currently]

The old system of an alert at the bottom of the
monthly newsletter was not fit for purpose.
We will now have a much better system with our new database that w will send proper
direct email reminders.

That's exactly what happened to me. I would have renewed my WMUK
membership if I had been reminded, but I wasn't and so I am not
eligible to vote this time.
