Changes to member offers
One of the benefits of swib membership is the ability to make special offers to other members. You have always been able to make "permanent" offers, lasting for the duration of your membership, but in the past, there was a charge of £50 for special limited-time promotions lasting up to 90 days. This charge has now been removed, so all member listings are now free.
