text donation

[sticksaint]

When darlington went into administration they had a number you could text and you donated £1.50 to the club.I don`t know how you go about setting one of these up ,but somebody here must know.It would be a very quick way of getting money to the club.Thoughts?

I think you are an absolute Saint for even thinking such a thing. I thought I would get that in first. And if you want money from me, you will not be disappointed.

 

Having said that, I think (hope) it will not be necessary. The night is at its darkest just before dawn.

Good idea, and one that a lot of fans would be willing to contribute to as well.

 

Whilst we wouldn't generate massive amounts, I'm sure any money would be much appreciated by the club.

[Stu Man Do]

Any ideas how much the Darlo number raised? I wonder how many people (based on this forum) would be willing to put money into this? Would it be a little bit like propping up Lowe et al? Poll mods - yes or no?

Even better spend 15 and see a game?

Brilliant idea, i wonder if the club have it lined up.

Now that is a much better idea and some mobile phone company do not take 50p of your donation in admin fees!

 

Personally I would rather post in a cheque or drop off the cash!

I would rather do the text as the other option always make me feel worse after about 85 minutes ;-)

It takes you 85 minutes to feel worse

I know what you`re saying but i just cannot afford to get down to St Marys regularly.Will be there easter monday though.I`m sure that there are many people like me who cannot get to games for whatever reason but would be able to text a number

Email your suggestion to David Luker - Head of Supporter Services. If a fair few of us do it then maybe the club will take it on board.

As I said a minimum of 55p going on mobile network\admin fees.

 

Surely better to send the club a cheque or some cash i nthe post?

[sticksaint]

Yeah maybe not such a good idea after all.

[Bailey]

Will there be people at the Charlton game having a whip round with the buckets?

 

Every little helps after all . . .

I'd like to help but I'm strapped for cash at the moment - but enough of my little piccadillos ........

Why dont you just give them his mobile number. You know you have it on speed dial :wink:

[PaulSaint]

I have just emailed them to request they setup a paypal address so that fans can donate online too. By ticking the box marked "Paypal Gift" then the donation incurs no charges at either end.

 

I will update you all if I receive a reply?

While the sentiments are there, it didn't really work for Darlington. They would have been bust by now if George Houghton didn't plough in an extra £150,000 on Thursday evening to keep them afloat until the end of the season. They were within hours of shutting up shop. Texting wouldn't even raise a fraction of what's needed to keep the club going.
