This could end up a bit of a popcorn thread but the BEC owners club has been having problems for quite a while. Could poss get your money back if via paypal?? The MK club on the other hand is/was looking for new administrators so may well be sorted soon?

Definately apply to Paypal to get your money back. This club is defunct... The website needs to be taken down by the owner

Although it is useful to be a member when it comes to insurance quotes. I was told my quote was 20% lower for being in a club (even if I have had nothing from them in about 9 months).

But then you would actually have to have some documentart evidence you were a member!!

On the same note it doesn't have to be the same marque as the vehicle your trying to insure. I've used my TVR Car Club membership - a large a well respected club for the Locost insurance without any issues.
