I joined online and paid electronically. Why can I still not login?

Your bank transfer has to be confirmed by one of our committee members and some of us have to work as well! We will check it as soon as we can and then authorise your account. Be aware that if you use a 3rd party payment platform it may take longer for the funds to reach us. We are normally able to confirm online accounts within 3 days.
