Thanks. Can this be a feature request to redirect requests to the old alias to the new alias? Other service providers and sites do this to avoid a broken link for poor customer experience.

May I ask why not? Without a redirect for switching aliases, there will be broken links for poor customer experiences in their journey.

it is simple, we don't do redirects. No other explanation is going to be given.

If you want to change your alias you can do it, you also have to change all of the links you created. It is all your choice.

Another option is to use your club number instead of the alias, especially for links such as Club Central and any that you might not be able to update easily. The club number URL will never change.
