How long does it take you get your number for a newbie?
 

Hey I signed up with the PDGA for the first time last night. How long does it usually take before you get your number? I want to sign up for the SLOSH #2, but I want to wait for my PDGA # to save $10.

Thanks,
Cindy :)

It takes 4-5 weeks, if I recall. Just tell the TD that you've already signed up, and you shouldn't need to wait. You may not be able to pay online, though....

And welcome to the PDGA!

I don't remember exactly how it works but I think they do a batch of new members once a week on Fridays or something. If you signed up late in the week I think you will have to wait until the following week's batch to get your number. It takes a few weeks to get your member package from the PDGA.

The TD should get an email about a week before the event with the current member list. If you joined, just let the TD know and you'll be fine. I'm glad to hear you joined the PDGA. It may not be perfect, but it is the best organization our sport has going.

You are now officially PDGA #37716. Welcome!

How long does it take for number and password to be vaild
 

I recieved a email today with my PDGA number and a password. I went to the site to see if my name was there and if my password would work. It did not.
I was just wondering when they put them through. It said my packet would be here in about 7 days. Thanks Rick :dancing:

Let me know if you get your packet. I signed up over 2 months ago, and have not recieved mine yet. :pullhair:

Cindy :(

Cindy that is ridicilous you better call them.

I registered on Jan 5th, my membership was process and marked as shipped on jan 7th. I received it today the 20th.

Cindy, sorry to hear about your bad luck thus far, surely someone at the office might be able to help you get it straightened out.

I have emailed a few times, and finally last Wednesday on the 7th I did get a reply saying that they would put a reship order on my packet. Still nothing yet though. I am going to give a few more days, but if I do not receive anything by say Friday I am going to call because this is getting slightly ridiculous don't ya think. :headbang:

Cindy :mad:

I do have my number however that happened within a week I think. Not sure cause it was so frickin long ago now. :pullhair:

Cindy :mad:

Did you get anything yet?
 

Hey Cindy
Did you recieve anything yet? Did they call you and let you know what is going on? I hope my stuff does not take that long, I would be pissed.

Nothing yet :headbang: I did recieve and email saying they would put a re-ship on it on the 7th, but it has ont arrived yet. I did recieve anothe email I think friday stating that I may recieve two packet because she put another re-ship order on mine. I just will be happy with one geeze. :slapface:

Cindy

That process can be very frustrating. Have you had previous trouble with items shipped to your address? I was reading an article yesterday about increase of theft within the postal service in the last 1-1.5 years. The article was recommending signature service or insurance on important items.

I kind of felt that the article could have just been an avenue for the postal service to eek out a few more cents on shipping services but when it something I need or want I usually will eat the cost on the signature service just to be sure they deliver it. Just a thought, perhaps you can ask Adelle to ship it with some sort of confirmation service!

I got my package with dog tag shortly after ordering my 5-year renewal, so they actually are there...

Still waiting for my stuff. Hope it does not take that long.
