When the time comes to pay my mothly dues to the IWW do I just send a cheque to their main UK office, or to my local branch? Can I just send the cheque and thats it?

I don't know how the mail-in dues system works with the BIROC, you should just ask them about that. Depending on where you are, you can probably find a delegate and just pay your dues directly to them, it makes things a lot simpler.

I'm not in the IWW so I can't answer to you man, but I send my dues to the central branch of the C.W.I. in amerikkka so you probably have to do the same for the IWW.(or depending on the country were you live)

You send it to your local delegate who gives you stamps for your card. If you're not sure who that is, you can send your subs to IWW, PO Box 1158, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE99 4XL but include your x number and state that it's your subs.

It's better if you pay by standing order so we can take it out of your bank account.

Cut out the hassle: If you would like to take the hassle out of paying your membership dues and have a bank or building society account, please request a standing order mandate post it to your bank or building society once you've signed and completed it. Please indicate on the membership form that you wish to pay by standing order. Please make sure your include your IWW membership number as the reference on the form.

Hope this helps comrade! Also, personally I find it easier to pay a year's subs all at once, so I dont need to worry about it every month.

Oh we can do that? I'll probably send a cheque for a years sub then. But how do I get the stamps if I send my subs by cheque? And do they automatically assume if I have paid by monthly free times 12 that I don't have to be charged again for a year?

Well if your subs were the minimum say, £1.10 (i think) then you send a cheque for £13.20 and explain that you're paying a years subs.

You can send that to your delegate, or to the adress in newcastle. But it's best to ring the office to make sure they process it. If you're handing it to your local delegate then just give it to him/her in person.

I'll send it to Newcastle then. Will a simple letter explaining I'm paying in bulk do? And then how do I get the stamps?

I would post your card along with the letter, and the adress to send it back to.

Heres a list of all the local groups and industrial branches, one of them must be near you. Are you an iscolated member?
