I got my Idiot Club tshirt on Monday, for renewing :happy:

I've been wondering about the "early entry" thing that they posted about back when Wembley and Manchester were announced, they said theyd be posted at a later date but theres been nothing about it since..

yes. the idiot club doesnt store members credit card details for security reasons so they dont do an automatic renewal. you should get a renewal notice email before the date but I do know a lot of people havent got one. just keep an eye on the date and renew when the time comes

ok thanks :)

Ok so you only get a shirt if you renew your membership not if you already are a member? Cause I just joined like 4 or 5 months ago so it'll be a while before I have to renew :dry:

Not necessarily. I rejoined last year when my membership ran out and didn't get the option of the shirt. That offer was brought in later and I don't know if anyone knows if the same offer will be available when I come to renew again in November. Let's face it, someone renewing for the second time won't want an identical shirt, and there is no 'opt out' option at the moment.

This is more a little niggle than anything, but on New Years Day I got an email from the IC saying my memebership had expired. I knew that wasn't the case because I knew for a fact that I had bought it more sort of April time. I just presumed I had misread the fine print, and it literally ment a calander year membership, so I had to renew every year, ie New Years day 2010, 2011 etc. It was only when I was a bit bored about a month later that I found out I was wrong, when I found out my log in was still working. It worked fine up until April the 12th, when it must have actually expired. I renewed yesterday, but I think this could be a potential issue for some people if renewal notices are being sent out at the wrong time, as they could miss out on chunk of their membership.

I have sent a few emails to the IC peoples about renewing my account - got nothing helpful in return. Still waiting for someone to get back to me RE: my latest issue. I would like a tshirt.

I came in this thread to ask the exact same question, thanks for the info. My membership ran out the other day and the only reason I'd really have to renew is for possible competitions/early entry etc for Wembley. For such a big show they've gotta be doing some kind of contest or other, right?

I have been e-mailing regularly since January and not one of my e-mails has been answered. I actually renewed early - I forgot that American sites list dates differently and I thought I expired on 12th November instead of December 11th. If I had waited until December, the subscription would have included an extra $10 (no opt - out option) for handling for the t-shirt. As it was, I rejoined but at the $20 nett price.

They have to address this because anyone rejoining in December 2010 will end up with two t-shirts. i hope they plan to give away a different item each year, but I am annoyed that after six years of membership, I won't be entitled to a t-shirt until long after the current tour is over. To me, as the site started in September, the shirt offer should have been made available from that anniversary, not some random date some two months later

Having said that, yes I shall rejoin, because I've made some very good friends on that site. It's just a pity that Artist Arena don't reward loyalty like they promised they would when they took over the running of the place. I really wish that, like GDA, ot was run by actual fans instead of as a business by people without a passion for the band.
