With reference to the article posted here on 6th May, we have received this further email from the Rotary Club:
Further to the invitation below we have been advised that a few people have had difficulty using online banking to pay for their tickets to this event.
The information we provided was:
Barclays Bank, Walton-on-Thames
Account name: Shepperton & Sunbury Rotary Club
Sort code: 20-90-56
Account number: 70793930
Reference: your surname and, if possible, add “75th Dinner”
It seems in some cases the bank isn't verifying our bank account unless the account name is written in the following specific format - ‘Rotary Club of Shepperton and Sunbury’.
Also, in case you haven’t dealt with the Holiday Inn, we’ve had to set a deadline of May 17th for responses in order that we can then comply with their deadline just a few days later. All numbers we give are then a firm commitment which is why we must ensure we have bookings by the date we have set.
We’re really hoping bring local organisations together to celebrate our lovely local area and all the voluntary work done. Also just to say, proceeds raised on the night will be used to support local charities especially Homestart, Purple Angels, White Lodge and my President’s charity Thames Sailability.
