Yes it has. It is for MMOC members and printed on ESM’s adverts in the club magazine.

The new and current discount code is stated in the November/December issue of Minor Matters, page 33.
You also have to give your MMOC membership number.

Back Advert?
I presume you mean inside the back cover.

ESM always run 2 adverts, one is the general 'advert', inside the back cover, the other one gives the discount code and pretty much moves around every month.
They require your membership number to validate the discount and I strongly suggest you delete your membership number from your Post yesterday, because you've just provided it for someone else to use. If you can't edit due to the elapsed time then delete the post completely.
I don't know if ESM can validate membership number against a name, or if just any number will allow fraudulent use of the discount.

This may be true, but you only need to look at someone's profile to see their MMOC number.

Membership number in someone's profile !!!!!!

Cannot find my membership number in my profile.

The only number I can see is the number of posts currently.

That's because you haven't entered it under User Control Panel & Profile.

I did not realise that field, if completed, was a public field.
I've now deleted mine.

Given that it can, and now is, being used as a verification to an entitlement, perhaps not a idea to publicise it.

I'll PM Simmitic about it.

To my surprise and their credit, ESM still honour a discount code I received, from Bull Motif, many years ago. :tu1:
It came in very useful recently when buying parts for a clutch etc. replacement.

We have somewhat strayed from the topic (how unusual :-? ) but when editing a profile this message is displayed: "Please note that this information may be viewable to other members.", so it really should not come as a surprise. That said, I can understand the concerns about revealing your membership numbers and have set the field to not display. Hope that reassures everyone.

Many thanks Simon.
Perhaps the 'maybe' is a bit vague, but I'm sure that wording isn't yours.
And you're so efficient, I hadn't even got around to contacting you like I said I would earlier this morning. :tu1: :)

So now back to guarding the integrity of our membership privileges. :wink:
If they get misused, then the people offering them may change their minds.

I just joined on the 5th of the month and in USA. So, I have my number, but not the current issue of Minor Matters and digital issues are two back.
Any chance of someone PMing me the code? its 5%, right? So, that'll be about $30 off. Thought I'd ask just in case. Thanks, I'm ready to check out.
