2022 FAQS - RENEWING MEMBERS

I am a Ticketed Member that is not donating my credit amount. What happens to the membership benefits I didn’t receive during the 2021 NRL Season due to COVID-19?

Ticketed Members that do not choose to donate their credit amount will receive compensation for membership benefits that were unable to be delivered by the Club in 2021. Compensation will be in the form of partial credit towards 2022 membership.

If you are not sure of which type of 2021 membership package you held, please contact the Membership Team on 1300 258 346 or membership@parraeels.com.au

What is taken into consideration in calculating my 2020 membership credit amount?

2021 credit amounts are calculated as follows:

a) An amount to cover costs incurred by the Club (including but not limited to, the Member Pack, postage, mail house and administration) is deducted from the membership package price. This amount varies, depending on the type of 2021 membership package held. For further information, please contact the Membership Team on 1300 258 346 or membership@parraeels.com.au

b) The balance is then divided by the number of match entitlements included in a membership package for the season, determining a per match value. The number of matches the Club offer to Members by season’s end will be deducted from the balance.

c) Members that have not paid in full for their 2021 membership will have any outstanding amounts deducted from any credits due.

Can I request my allocated account credit for 2021 be used across multiple seasons?

No. Your partial 2021 account credit must be used in full for the 2022 NRL season and can be only used toward your 2022 membership balance.

Can I request a refund of my allocated account credit instead of applying it to next seasons membership?

No. Your partial 2021 account credit can only be used towards your 2022 Membership balance and is not eligible to be refunded, as per the 2021 Membership Terms & Conditions.

I am currently experiencing financial difficulty and would like to discuss my options with the Club. How do I do this?

My 2021 Membership monthly payment plan was suspended due to hardship and I have an outstanding amount owing on my 2021 Membership invoice. What happens?

What is the membership rollover?

The annual membership rollover takes the hassle out of renewing your Membership. 2021 Members who have not opted out of 2022 membership will be automatically renewed into the same package(s) and seat(s) for the 2022 NRL Season, using the same payments details as the previous season, unless otherwise advised.

Your Parramatta Eels Membership will automatically renew for 2022 with our Eel4Life payment plan on 17 October 2021. To make changes to your Membership and/or payment details, please contact our Membership Team by 5pm 10 October 2021.

I was on a monthly payment plan in 2021, can I pay my outstanding 2022 membership invoice amount on a monthly payment plan in 2021?

As per previous seasons, all Members have the option to pay for their 2022 membership invoice via a 10 month payment plan or in one lump sum via the 2022 membership rollover. The first monthly payment and/or the one lump sum payment (depending on which option a Member chooses) is due on 17 October 2021.
