    We are having the same problem with our group, bostonctoclub. I understand that nyctoclub is also having that problem. When someone gets an email invite to the group and clicks on the "join this group" button in their invite email, they get to a page that says, "You have received a pre-approved invitation from the group moderator. Click the join button to become a member." in the "Welcome to" box. Only, there is no "join" button, and in the "About Group" box is the message, "Sorry, this group is available to members ONLY. You are not allowed to access this group." See similar issue at https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20140605173056AAqOUIA

I also have the same problem here. I have had the invitation resent but still keeps bouncing me off for not being a member. How do one get past this? Thanks
