Has anyone EVER received the premiums they were supposed to get from the Stones Fan Club? I joined n '02 and again in '07 and NEVER got the caps or the DVDs or any of the stuff that was supposed to be a part of the deal.
The RSFC is a scam as far as I'm concerned.

I've, so far, declined the "offer" of continuing my memberships, but I did write mails to the fan clum, asking about where my DVDs were, and the gifts, and why the presale codes only gave access to crappy tickets. Here's the answer:
Greetings,
We have received word from management that the Fan Club DVD has not been released yet. This DVD will be shipped out very soon! As soon as we start shipping them out we will put a post on the messageboard. Even if you have cancelled your account before the DVD has shipped we will still send the Fan Club DVD.
Please let us know if you have any question or concerns.
Regards,
Matthew

As you can see, there's no mention of the codes or the pre-sale. So I think I'll just save the money this time around.

There is far too much flaming of the RSFC by people that I suspect never paid anything and only snipe at it.

For all the bad rap about the RSFC there were some incredible experiences for us:
1. We got tickets for the once-in-a-lifetime Cirkus theatre show in Stockholm in 2003. We would have never gotten them anywhere else except through RSFC (unless we paid $2000 each for Fan Asylum that is)

2. I received the Fan DVD (two copies) in 2005. Not the greatest but a nice souvenir.

3. I got 9 ball caps sent to me!

For the four times I paid the Premium price I think that was well worth it. I wish that folks who had good experiences would write more. There is far too much flaming of the RSFC by people that I suspect never paid anything and only snipe at it.

Hmm, maybe I should give it another go.
Gazza, how long did you hang on the phone to the U.S.?
...and should I drink a bucket o' coffee or take a pill to calm me down?

Very positive experience.
In 2002, my credit card was rejected by the RSFC for a US club show, because I had not a US billing adress at that time.
The guy there offers me in exchange a link to buy a European club show in 2003.
Thanks to the club, I also made Vredenbug, Astoria and Circus in Sweeden.
Nothing much to complain.
