Re-registered this morning and found that the terms and conditions can not be seen until they have been accepted !

Not just a good camping site but also a great family run farm experience for the kids. The canal is about 600 yards away from the farm entrance.

That, Nick, is the stark reality of it. What's needed, in my opinion, is a transparent and independent 'live' auction of private moorings to serve as a comparator where there are no misleading guide prices displayed. Comparisons can then be made between CRT and private moorings where the moorings are the same or similar.

Well the 14th has arrived but nothing as yet, except "Site Locked" Maybe a cold morning start

The point about ways to do business applies to both parties, whoever is wrong or right. Just for clarification, the link was posted in response to someone's request for more information, I think it was alan

"Whether BWML are right or wrong" Why are you having difficulty with the above statement? Do I say that they are right? Do I say that they are wrong? Stop looking for an argument ...for the sake of an argument!

I would echo this advice Despite agreeing to staged payments our builder asked for the final payment long before the boat was finished ...so that he could buy the steel for his next boat!

Ooh ek! I didn't think it could get worse

Yeah, I found that too, there are no links to follow!

Whilst looking through the topics on the forum I have come across many descriptions of moorings and the more descriptions I see, the more confused I become Can anyone offer any detail on what the following mooring descriptions mean - Visitor Mooring Residential Mooring Ghost Mooring Leisure Mooring Winter Mooring Home mooring Full Mooring Online Mooring Offline Mooring Towpath Mooring Permanent Mooring Short Term Mooring Paper Mooring I might then be able to gain a better understanding of some of the arguments for and against the types of mooring Ta very muchly

I am unable to find the topic that was called "Mooring Aution" Has it been pulled?

I will leave others to proceed with a FOIA as I think this is essential https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/ Meanwhile I have made a public information disclosure directly to Richard Parry

The structure and scripting of that web site is too poor to be designed, it's just sloppy, and that's a poor designer. No user validation, no encryption to protect identities and personal details, it's no wonder the site has been compromised. What is amazing is how long it took to discover the vulnerabilities. There is even a SQL injection vulnerability, but I will say nothing more of that. What is very clear to me is that CRT need a new IT professional, hence the deletion of my account. I think sometimes it's okay to be a bit cynical ...there was just something about the mooring prices that set alarm bells ringing.

And that's how easy it is to make a fictitious bid on a CRT Mooring! No email verification or checks of any kind. Register an account and the account is instantly live. Hopeless!

And only 2 moorings at auction!

That said, it would appear that the CRT auction has been, and still is wide open to abuse. I think you are right, it does need fixing. So then, how long has this been going on and how much have boaters needlessly paid where an unscrupulous bidder has logged in with a fictitious ID and hiked up the price ...it does make me wonder!

No such checks for me Mike.
