Dear new or renewing member, as this is a new membership portal that we at NABD have started to use, it will not show or allow you to put in your past membership number. It will issue you with a new membership number, but do not worry, we still have historical information of members date of joining and your previous membership number. As the new portal develops, we will build past details into the data base in the background.
Direct debit and monthly subscription members, please note that as this is a new site it will not have your previous bank details information retained and you will need to resubmit your membership application and bank information. We are sorry for this, but we need to use this new membership portal and process to ensure your information security, and it will make the process future safe.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter, but if you have any questions, please contact NABD on the contact form or telephone us.
