Re: [Ql-Users] Has QL Today lost half its readers?
This is completely my fault - although Geoff has over-reacted as usual. I have had little time to read this list of late since, apart from my family, my job, my current position as Diving Officer and instructor for Sussex Diving Club and my rock band, I seem to have got involved in a political campaign to stop a big building development in Brighton Marina. I was supposed to furnish Jochen with the number of magazines I need for this current issue and I neglected to do so. Since then I have been so tied up in all these activities it has been push onto back brain. I apologise to those who subscribed for this oversight and I will rectify matters this week. -- Roy Wood Q Branch. 20 Locks Hill, Portslade, Sussex.BN41 2LB Tel/ Fax: +44 (0) 1273 430501 NOTE NEW PHONE NUMBER! web : www.qbranch.demon.co.uk skype : royqbranch ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

[Ql-Users] Has QL Today lost half its readers?
Dear QL Today subscribers, Almost three weeks ago Jochen posted an email on this list about the shipping of the latest issue of QL Today. In it he mentioned problems with QBranch that meant we were unable to print and ship the UK orders: As I have not had an order from QBranch for their QL Today issues and no replies to emails, I cannot predict when the readers who subscribed with QBranch will get their issues. The earliest date I can print and ship them will be week 41 (2nd Oct. week), provided, I get the order in time. Much to our surprise not one person reacted to this news, either publicly or privately. We wonder if any readers have made contact with QBranch and, if so, what the reaction has been. I am sorry to have to inform our readers who subscribe via QBranch that we are still unable to print and ship their copies. QBranch has made no attempt to contact us since Jochen posted his email. This means we have no order for the UK copies; no payment for printing and shipping; no indication of the number of subscribers. Given that we are at the start of a new volume and that readers have just paid their subscriptions, this is a very serious matter. In Volume 12 Issue 3 page 57 I outlined the structure of QL Today. I would advise you to read this article so that you understand the legal position. Two quotes are relevant: the continental and UK arms of QL Today are currently two distinct entities with separate administration, distribution and financing. Technically UK readers who order the magazine via QBranch do not have a direct subscription to QL Today. Their contract is with QBranch who then buy in the copies from the publisher. The present issue of QL Today was published on time and readers who subscribe via JMS have already had their copies. We are annoyed and frustrated that we are unable to supply QL Today to about half our readers because of the failure of QBranch to order and pay the agreed pre-payment of issue 1 of the new volume. Unfortunately the legal situation is that at QL Today we have very little leeway in this matter because without an order we do not have a contract with QBranch for the present volume. We suggest every reader who subscribes via QBranch now contact them and ask why they have failed to place an order with QL Today. Please let us know what happens as if this does not produce a result we shall have to suggest alternative and stronger courses of action. Please feel free to contact me privately if you wish to do so, Best wishes, Geoff ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
