I am part of a fantasy league of 9 individuals; we have been on road.cc for maybe 5 years now. We are all a bit dismayed by the effective doubling of the subscription price, not to mention the email spamming (21 identical emails so far this morning, spaced out every few minutes). There are other platforms for fantasy cycling that neither charge nor spam emails.

Why the price change? Why should we be spammed?

I’m seeing a lot of replies

I’m seeing a lot of replies re: the spam emails. I understand this is a technical glitch. I’m more concerned about the price increase.

Hi all,

Hi all,

We’re really sorry about the email spamming situation, it’s absolutely not intentional I promise! The company responsible for sending out emails to our mailing list can’t work out the problem currently, but we’re really hoping to have it resolved asap. 

Thanks,

Jack

Duplication of emails sounds

Duplication of emails sounds more of a cock up than deliberate, with the same process rerunning in error.
