Hi, I'm "that man"! Glad it worked for you. There have been one or two initial hiccups with this, but at the request of the Ops manager Ian Hendry, I sent him several photocopies of my CCCUK membership card so that he could distribute them to all the OK Diners, so that the staff know what they're looking for.
In the event of anyone having any problems, I suggest that they mention Mr Hendry's name, and that should do the trick.
The Midlands group have been to two OK Diners in recent months, one in Cannock, for their re-opening, and one in Derby for Independence day (July 4th).
I have also been twice with my wife. No probs on any of these occasions.

Glad to hear you're getting something going in your area!

Dave

Re: Club Discount at OK Diners

I have had a report that one or two members have been refused their discount at the OK Diner chain. Having queired this with OK Diners it transpires that this discount has to be renewed each year in order to stay in force as per this email I had from OK Diners:

"Dear David

Thank you for your e-mail, I am sorry that some on your members have been refused discount. Unfortunately with changes in personnel across our chain I have to ask that all club discounts yourselves, PT cruisers, VW, Harley Davison etc. re-apply on an annual basis. For more that any other reason to serve as a reminder which clubs are to be given a discount. A simple e-mail every year to me with a scan of what the current membership card looks like (so I can distribute to the restaurants) will do.
Sorry for any inconvenience but it is the only way I can ensure that club
members as some of yours have been are not disappointed"



I have now done this and all should be well and you should get a discount upon production of a current CCCUK membership card. I have sent a scanned copy of the current membership card to Dafydd Poole (the appropriate director at OK Diners) who says he's forwarding it on to the Diners.

I would suggest that before purchasing a meal you show them your membership card straight away, and if you have any problems qoute the name Dafydd Poole and request that they check.

Regards

Dave

Re: Club Discount at OK Diners

Well done Dave, I've changed the club benefits sheet to note production of card prior to ordering.

Ben when you get a moment can you change the online version?

It already says "15% on production of valid membership card". What's changed?

Re: Club Discount at OK Diners

We're suggesting they produce their membership card prior to ordering, to stop any confussion.
