IRM Latest! The High Queens of Ireland - IRM Celebrates 10th Birthday With GSR 800s

[85 Merlin]

Hi everyone,

As we all know, it's the week of the Dublin Model Railway Show, and from what @Sulzer201 posted, we should be getting an update on the beautiful 800 Class!

Does anyone have any guesses as to when we might hear something this week? Or perhaps Fran @Warbonnet or @BosKonaycould tell when we will hear?

To me, IRM seems very quiet this year. I know it's only Tuesday, but this is also the week when we celebrate all things Irish model railways, and I'm sure plenty of us would love to see the news start rolling in as soon as possible!

After all, we only get a week like this once a year, so let's make the most of it!

Thanks everyone,

85 Merlin

Great to see the highly detailed models of the 800 class-the presentation box is a nice touch.

Hi Folks,

Just to advise you folks of a monthly payment issue.

I ordered one of these Locos on 9 Month installments, If I think correctly (like the C Class ordered I placed)  you pay for the 1st installment there and then and it gets take out each month through Visa.

I Left it at and was very surprised to find a email requesting full payment n August. Checked it with AS in August and was told to ignore the invoice, nothing said about payment issue and that zero payments had been made. 

Que this week another Email for full payment has come in. The reason is "It looks like the pre-order tool we use wasn't synced with your order" so nothing has been paid 

This is quite bizarre as this flew under the radar for 9 months with AS, No email to say payment had failed or sorry due to tech the 1st couple of payments failed and a solution offered.

TBH I don't really check the Visa that comes in, I used to check partially regularly as that gave a nice view of where you were with payments and forgot about it thinking all was in hand. 

So a world of warning to you good people , be alert for issues like this with the monthly payments. Check these are going through as now I have to trump up the bones of 400 notes asap for which I had not budgeted for...not too impressed.
