Can you set the date of when you want the direct debit to come out??

If you sign up i think DD comes off your account four days later.

[Sammy7nil]

HSL and the Club need urgent talks. With the money that could generated Hibs should be helping HSL with marketing and IT skills.

Great to see this gathering momentum again

Me too

[Kojock]

I cancelled my £18.75 subscription in February after reaching my target of donating £1000.
Just restarted my D/D. So heres to the next £1000. GGTTH

reinstated mine, and increased it.

[Johnny_Leith]

HSL, you need to clear your inbox.

[James Stephen]

Already donate in mine and my eldest laddy's name - been meaning to get my youngest signed up too for a while, so that will be done today - now is the time to back the club if you can afford to

Yes and with a wee bit of work this could become very big, helping the club short term and longer term.
I would just like to see a bit of input from HSL perhaps with some targets.
Such as "Aiming for 200 new subs or returning members by Friday" Then someplace to show the uptake on members, let the call out grow. sort of thing.

Just an idea but what about weekly competitions for people who are contributing surely the club can provide HSL with stuff they aren’t needing like:

•last seasons training kit
•assist in getting balls/shirts signed
•£10 of the club store

this sort of thing. I feel it would keep folk interested and plug it in social media you might find that you get sponsorship once it reaches a certain following.

On twitter for instance you enter by liking the post and retweeting it. This allows the message to be spun far and wide.

I’m happy to assist in this if needed.

Would be great if the club and HSL had discussions and provided a route map and the club perhaps sharing their expertise and knowledge of (social) media and promotional work............maybe give the plan a relevant slogan........maybe something along the lines of 'the comeback is always greater than the setback.....be part of the journey' and you could incorporate clips of great Hibs comebacks 0-2 at Tynie, 1-2 in the Cup Final, 0-3 v Falkirk, and so on........

It is now time Hibs started working more closely with Supporter Groups if they want to tap into the groundswell of goodwill there is out there.

I know over the years there is friction between various supporters groups and the Club are not great at acknowledging the work done by supporters. We have a new regime in place, with hopefully a new outlook based on the Community and the Fans. However as I said there is "baggage" and there are long standing areas of distrust in the wider Hibernian family. Maybe we need a new Umbrella Group that can bring us all together, with the Club represented in that Group.

This would not mean that any Groups needs to change their name or their role, we are all Hibs, we all have views....boy do we have views! We tap into what each Group (for example have HSL the official donation site) can do for the wider Hibernian Family, we get together with the Club and discuss what is for the best. It might take some set up but it would get us all pulling together.

If it is not already taken, call it ChooseHibs! There must be enough "professional" people out there that can come together without bringing "the baggage" to make this happen. I have successfully run Community efforts to bring people together using local skills, based on, but certainly not solely, on Facebook. It is not easy and there are always casualties and fallings out. People with better social media skill than me would be needed though. I am happy to help on such a venture. Meanwhile I am off to sort out my Direct Debit.

[bawheid]

Direct debit started. Will persuade my old man to do the same.

[Alex Trager]

Started to contribute yesterday. As others have said feels good to get on board.

Hopefully this is all relayed to the club in terms of the need for a promotional push and the club can get on board.

That was kind of my thought also as I am sure a bit tech and social media skills are already at the club as the communications have been very good recently.

[Pagan Hibernia]

I stopped my direct debit months ago in a huff when Ron slammed the door shut on more shares.

i’ll reinstate it, and probably increase it tonight. This is just too important.

I think a running total of subscribers and total money raised each month is a good way to go. I think the ticket sales threads tend to lead to more people buying tickets as they see others doing likewise.

[Garymcl]

Agree with A Hibee that maybe an update from HSL every now and again when we’ve reached a certain figure etc similar along the lines of the famous dot count I’ve just increased ny £18.75 to £30 I can afford it as like many of us going no holidays for a while please keep donating whatever you can

[HendoDelivered]

Very heartwarming to see the amount of new HSL donators and people reactivating direct debits. Hopefully more will follow!

[Dmas]

I’ve joined this morning small monthly donation just now once I’m back to full wages I’ll increase it.

Brilliant. Well done. Every bit helps.

Like many on here I've experienced frustrations with HSL. I originally donated a one off sum & have now been doing monthly donations for a year or 2. I spoke with Jim Adie a couple of times re these frustrations & it's good to see the HSL guys coming on here & accepting & giving feedback re the membership process etc. It's a 2 way street though & I was equally frustrated with the reaction of many Hibs fans to HSL. Now's a great time to move forward together, improve the process, clear up any misgivings/misconceptions of some fans & make HSL a vibrant & positive force for helping our club. I love the concept of members offering time & expertise to help. For me, I'm in a fortunate position financially so have increased my DD. It seemed a simple process, time will tell!

[G B Young]

Probably already been mentioned but you can also make a one-off donation if you can't commit to a monthly direct debit in the current climate.

That's what I've done today as I'm not sure I have a job to go back to post-lockdown, but hope to reactivate my monthly contributions asap.

[Robbo6-2]

I am still trying to increase my db with no joy.

Tried twice now and ready to give up

[JohnM1875]

Chuffed this seems to be getting bit of a surge in uptake! Just upped mine by a wee bit too and got a mate signed up for the first time. Really hope it kicks on further from here.

Persevere my man, I am sure that someone from HSL will be along soon to help you (They better)
We have something rolling along here and we need to keep it going.
