Entry System Difficulties

Thank you all very much for your patience with the difficulties with our entry system. We are still working to resolve the technical problems. The whole committee and our website manager are in close contact. We are all volunteers and this is taking a huge amount of our time, but please bear with us.

I can give you the following updates (Click to open) :

If you have made an entry and received an order summary email, your entry is successfully received. Please check the order summary to ensure it matches the classes you think you have entered and let us know immediately if not.

If you have been charged for a class that was not one you intended to enter (this has mainly occurred with older dancers who have had a random Greek solo added) we will be in touch to request your bank details to make a refund. These refunds will not be made via PayPal.

We are aware of 3 full entry payments that have been taken twice and these will be refunded by the end of today. If you think you have been charged twice and not received a refund by the end of the day, please let us know.

Entries will first be reopened for principals and teachers to make entries for groups. We expect this to be tomorrow afternoon and will let you know if a further issue arises to stop this from happening. Principals and teachers will then have a minimum 24 hours exclusive access before solo/duet/trio entries are reopened.

Solo/duet/trio entries will reopen later in the week – day to be confirmed as we follow the progress of the IT resolution. I will post to let you know when the reopening day is agreed.

We think we have answered all the individual questions that were sent to various team members, but if you are still awaiting a response, please let me know.

I think this has covered all scenarios, but please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks again for your understanding.

Karen and Committee
