Change of FDMC bank & what you need to do
An important message from our Membership Secretary, Paul Prescott:
You have received this message because currently my records show that you renew your FDMC subscription through a Standing Order that you have in place with your bank. If you haven’t heard already, Barclays Bank recently decided that they no longer want our business after many, many years. Towards the end of October this year they shut down our account. Consequently, the Club has had to set up a new account, and this is now with the Metro Bank. In order to prevent any of your future renewal subscriptions disappearing into a Barclays black hole, we need you to contact your bank as soon as possible, to amend your Standing Order.
The main FDMC account is now with Metro Bank is at 1 Southampton Row, LONDON WC1B 5HA. The new Account Name is Farnborough District Motor Club Limited (or .. Ltd also works), Sort Code 23-05-80 and Account Number 50856739. PLEASE action this change to your Standing Order as soon as possible, for your benefit, as well as the Club’s.
It would also be helpful if you could email me at membership@fdmc.org.uk when done. Many thanks in anticipation.
Paul Prescott
Membership Secretary

- We therefore ask all members to pledge to #RaceWithRespect and:
-
-
-
- Contribute to a welcoming and friendly environment that ensures the safety and welfare of all participants
- Always behave with integrity and uphold fairness in the sport; play your part in keeping the sport safe through your actions
- Treat everyone with respect, regardless of their gender, ethnicity or socio-economic background, language, religious or other beliefs, disability, sexual identity or other status
