After receiving a second online reminder about 2012 membership renewal, I followed the links on the AKSA website to renew online. Effectively it started my 2012 membership from when I paid online, even though my 2011 membership was still current. If I paid when I received the first reminder, I would have missed out on 1 months membership.
So basically a heads up. The system doesn't reward those who pay early. I'm not worried; though if it was council rates or insurance creeping forward, I'd certainly let them know.

After being contacted by AKSA, this is not how it works. I must have my dates mixed up. The new system is greatly improved (from the days when your membership finished in September no matter when you paid.) Renewal starts when your old membership expires, if it is current.
