End of Feb and still no Fan Club Calendar!

[Belladreamer]

Well I still have not got my calendar from the Fan Club... Has everyone else got their's? I am rethinking buying any pre-sale throught a company with this kind of service.

Very uncool!!

[sodascouts]

Nope!

We're in the same boat. No calendar and I have serious questions abuot a company that hasn't gotten my 2004 calendar to me by March 1st. C'est la vie.

[Carlene]

I got my calendar in late January.

For those who haven't gotten theirs yet, have you checked your personal profile to make sure you have a mailing address listed? I remember when the new mgmt took over, when I logged in for the first time there was a place to update info, and when I went there, my address field was blank. So I updated it at that time.

Just a thought...

I checked my profile, it's all accurate (although the fanclub suddenly started sending me emails to my old email - WTF?) Still no calendar :(

Paula

[AliP]

No calendar for me yet.

[WelshWitchPMD]

NO calendar here in Rhode Island.:(

I put my address info on that site months ago so there is NO excuse for why I have not received a calendar.

[diamondsnake]

Why don't you all call them? They have a 1-800 number and I have called several times and they have answered all my questions and helped me out. And I think it may depend on when you join, if you get a calander. Maybe you should all compare when you joined the club with the people that did receive the calanders. Just an idea...

[Enchanted58]

And I think it may depend on when you join, if you get a calander.

I'm confused. I was one of the poor schmucks who joined at the very beginning, and now get an extra whatever amount of time added onto this bogus membership. Are they actually going to SEND me something? :confused:

Eileen

[Lee]

Yeah, add me to the list of NO CALENDAR. I've sent two e-mails to two different address & have gotten NO response. I, too, joined at the very beginning, paid $60, & have nothing to show for it. I didn't even like my seats at the concert in Philly which I purchased at the pre-sale. And yes, my mailing address is correct in the profile.

I don't trust this new fan club at all. I'm not purchasing any concerts tickets to see FM at all this year. I'm just totally disgusted with the whole thing. I'm not renewing my fan club membership either.

Lee

[Livia]

Why don't you all call them? They have a 1-800 number and I have called several times and they have answered all my questions and helped me out.

I've emailed them 3 times and all I get is the auto-reply bs email, including the list of things they've promised to all renewed fan club members. I've mailed the faq address and the webmaster address. I can't seem to locate an 800 number, you wanna share that info?

[estranged4life]

I will be receiving a calendar, Even though I didnt join the <b>scam-club</b>, err, <i>fan-club</i>...:)

Sure, here is the number I have called:

1-800-767-7160

[Livia]

I just talked to someone named Rob, who is contacting the fan club people. I told him that I am speaking on behalf of literally, THOUSANDS of unhappy fans. I mentioned the non-existent merch discount, which was supposedly going into effect on 12/4/03; the fact that many of us already bought the calendars, months before we knew we'd be getting a free one; the fact that only a handful of people have received their free calendars and letters; the fact that the platinum package and blind ticket sales are ludicrous and insulting...well, you know everything we're unhappy about, so why am I getting into it all again?

Rob said he will call me tomorrow to let me know the status of whether or not he reached the fan club people.

:distress:

[sodascouts]

THanks, Livia. Let's hope something you get results.

[Rumours]

Add my name to the list of folks who joined waaay back when, did go update my profile when the new people took over, and no calendar or anything yet!!

I emailed them, I think it was to [email protected]
Got a reply, telling me to send my full name, address and login name to [email protected]

So I did, I guess we'll see what happens!!! :rolleyes:

Stephanie

[Livia]

I got the same reply:

Hello,

We are very sorry that you have not received this calendar.
Please send an
email to [email protected] with your full name, member login
and current
address. A new calendar and letter will be sent as soon as we
receive this
info.

Thank you for being a loyal Fleetwood Mac Fan.

-Fleetwoodmac.com

A "new" calendar? As opposed to an "old" calendar? Or are they trying to imply that they DID send it, and I just didn't receive it? WhatEVER! Well, let's try this and see what happens. I love how they ignored everything else I mentioned (the fan club discounts, etc.)


:rolleyes:

[seeknpeace]

I have not received my calendar either and I am so disheartened that I cannot believe that our fight ended up like this.

Some of you know that I am sick, but, for those that do not, I have breast cancer. I have lost both breasts and I am not ashamed to share it. I am scared to death. My heart wants to continue to fight for all of us and I cannot do it now. I have lost hope in the club and pray that they do something. I really do. I want it to be good for us all.

I know that a lot has been posted on Micks site asking where are we fighters now? I am still here, just being forced to fight for my life and can't fit both in. I will help anyone that I can. I am sorry that I can't fight in front now. Fleetwood Mac just cannot possibly realize how much their fans love them. How many of us there are. :confused:

with you. Please don't give up in your fight against this disease. I can somewhat relate to how you are feeling since my wife Debbie is also fighting cancer (Hodgkin's Lymphoma) and she is still very scared.

Just hang in there...My thoughts are with you,

Brian j.

ps-I clicked on the Breast Cancer link to help fund more mamographies, I suggest others do the same.

Darling, I've been worried sick about you for the last month. Try to get in touch with me when you can so we can talk. I pray that the surgeries went down without a hitch!

As always, I send you my love and wishes for the best. :)

[seeknpeace]

Thank you all so so much. They think that they got it all, I have had the best plastic surgeon that you can get. My biggest thing now is that my lungs have collapsed, which is not uncommon when you are under so long. The two surgeries, removal and the plastic sugery, ran around ten hours. So, the bottom of both lungs collapsed. Now only the left bottom is still collapsed, but, it makes me tired. It is a huge adjustment and I am plugging along. I didn't want ppl to think that I just went away, and just said screw it, I didn't. I just had to do this thing now.

I hope that I get to see the Mac in NC this time around...two shows...woohoo..:wavey:

[wondergirl9847]

Who cares about the stupid fan club!! You take care of yourself!! I hope you get to see the Mac too!! You are in my prayers!

Brian, you and Debbie are in my prayers too! Hang in there!!

I'm so relieved, as I'm sure you must be! :D I'm positive that the worst is over and that all you need to do is recuperate.

Talk to you soon, sweetheart. :wavey:

[strandinthewind]

I am glad they think they got it all but still, I am sorry about your lungs :(

My mom had an tiny tumor in the duct about four years ago when she was abround 72. It was so small, they could barely biopsy it. They determined it was cancer. She chose to have her breast removed and was just amazing about it. She refused a new breast commenting "it has served its purpose and I have already worn gay deceivers my whole life" :laugh: In fact, while she was in bed and immediately after hearing she had breast cancer, she turns to my sobbing father (WHO NEVER CRIES) and calmly says in her best Southern lilt "There will be time for those in private and later day, you are the head of my family and I need you to pay attention now." Then she would not let any men in the room after the surgery until her make up was on, which she had prior to surgery placed on the hospital tray and labelled with post it notes such things as "not too much rouge." Her nurse made her up and the men were allowed in - they truly do not make them like that anymore :laugh:

Anyway - sorry for the long story. I hope it made you laugh. AND my point is my mom has been cancer free since then and do will you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cool:

Jason

On topic - I got my calendar in January.

[seeknpeace]

What a true gem your mother is. And, southern to boot.

I think that she can bring some wisdom to the table with her age. I am only 52 and losing both of my breasts was devastating for me. I did opt to have my reconstruct done with my own tissue....no implants and it is pretty amazing. I am not done yet. Any one who wants to see what is now, I let them because I feel that they have to be so curious. Everyone going, What can that look like? It is very inspiring what a really good plastic surgeon can do. And, I got a complete tummy tuck in the process. So, there is a bright side.

Much love to you, sweetheart. Take care of yourself. Get well soon and I just know you'll be able to take in the NC show and that you'll enjoy yourself :nod: Brian, same thing goes for you and Debbie as well.

I can't believe some of you have still not recieved your calendars. Makes me think that this time around won't be much different...we shall see.

I am sending a big hug to you.:) You are in my prayers.

[Pix]

Hang in Seek… This Club crap shouldn’t even be on your radar right now. You need all your energy directed inward right now. My thoughts and prayers are with you. You’re a fighter… I have no doubt you will win this one too.

My Best

Wow, it's been a long time since I posted here on The Ledge. For those of you that don't already know (although I think most of you do) this is golddustwoman from Mick's Board.

My reason for posting has nothing to do with the Fan Club, the calendars or anything else to do with Fleetwood Mac. This post is really directed at Jan. I wanted to say that I have thought about you many times since I heard of your diagnosis. I hope this post will give you some encouragement because it has a happy ending.

I too have had breast cancer. I am a breast cancer survivor and I have been cancer free for a little over five years now. I remember the numbing fear like it was yesterday however. I remember so many emotions during that time. I also remember the determination that I had to fight the cancer and to win. It is not an easy fight but I know your determination Jan...I know how hard you fight for something that is important to you. I truly believe that you will beat this and, believe it or not, your life will return to normal. It's hard to see that far ahead right now I know. I had a hard time seeing past the surgery, the treatments and then the second surgery I had to have. But it will pass, you will endure and you will win. I have no doubt of that.

The Fan Club will go on in one form or another but that is of little consequence right now. Your life is what matters and that is what you need to focus on. Your strength and your determination will get you through this. As many others do I click on the cancer site numerous times a day...I click for me, I click for you and I click for every other woman who is fighting this disease and for those whose lives were saved by early diagnosis.

Remember Jan........"Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow". It truly will be here and it truly will be better.

All My Best Jan............Jackie

Well I hope all of those bitching over on Mick's board come over here and read this. They are too quick to try to blame those of us who fought last time for the mess the fan club is in now. Shame on all of them when someone like seek is fighting her own battle and that is a lot more important. Seek means the world to me and I for one am very greatful for all she did to right the wrongs last time.

You hang in there seek, you are loved!!

And Brian... I wish your wife a full and speedy recover too

The latest: I wrote back to them after they provided the [email protected] address and instructions, and said, "That's great, but are you going to address the other issues?" Their response:

Please be patient with us ... we are trying to eliminate one problem at a time due to the fact that they are all handled by different departments.

The Membership discount is automatically applied once you enter the store.

Thanks for being a loyal fan.


My response to that:

I believe your are mistaken about the membership discount - I paid $19.99 + shipping for the tourbook, via the link provided to the merchandise after signing into the fan club. To further investigate if I was actually getting a discount, I logged out, went directly to fanfire.com, as if I were NOT a fan club member, selected "Fleetwood Mac" AND THE PRICES FOR ALL MERCHANDISE WERE THE SAME!!!

:confused:

[Rumours]

Seek, my gosh, don't even give the fan club a thought right now!!!!!!! Keep up the fight!! Go to those 2 shows that you would like to see! Enjoy them! Dance like you've never danced before at those shows! Be strong! The website, fan club, presales, etc. are of little importance right now. Love, happiness, your friends here, and life & good health are of importance. Focus on life and your battle! We're pullin' for ya!!

Brian, what I just said goes for you & your wife too, my thoughts are with you as well. Hope all goes well with your wife. Stay strong for her!

Hmmm....I wonder if Toad deleted all the troublemakers' names before passing the info to the new fan club? Well, if they come back and say they have no record of me, I have a fan club membership receipt to prove that I joined.

for the best wishes, Debbie is <b>finally</b> home after spending 8 weeks & 6 days recovering from a near deadly <b>septic staph</b> infection of her blood due, In part, to her starting the chemo-treatments.

She is well ahead of schedule and may only need 2 more treatments since the chemo has basically eradicated a great majority of the cancerous cells (Hodgkin's Lymphoma is one of the easiest to treat cancers...And there is very rarely any re-occurance of the disease, Unlike Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma).

Anyways, Hopefully the fan club gets <b>"it"</b> in high gear and sends the calendars that are due to the fans that are STILL expectin' 'em.

Oh Brian, I just feel that she has turned the corner now!!! God bless her and you both are in my prayers too. This is a club that she and I share, but, not a good one to belong to. I am not sure about my treatment til I see the oncologist this week. I really do not think that I will need any more treatment. The tram flap surgery is much worse on your body than the mastectomy. Please give her a big hug from me and tell her that I said hello. Jan:wavey:

I saw the doc and the tram flap surgery is ok...just ornery and not healing as fast as it should. We have some more surgery and I see the oncologist this Friday. I think that it is turning the corner for me too.

I also want to thank each of you for the kinds words interent wide and the prayers. I don't care who or what we supported in the past, we are a great bunch of ppl and I am so happy to find peace with you all.

Brian, please keep us up to date on your wife. As if chemo is not enough for her to deal with, the staph infection had to be horribly scary. Hospitals ain't no joke, and I am afraid to touch door knobs anymore while there. She doesn't know me, but, tell her that I send her my love and prayers. Jan

You will also be in our thoughts. Just take care of yourself because you do not need the extra stress to burden you as you start treatment.

Debbie is doing fine, She is ahead of schedule on her recovery with the Chemo-treatments (Which she takes once every two weeks and may possibly need only 2 more treatments) and is looking/feeling great. We are already planning our near-yearly trip to Dallas (Around June 16...<i><b>Some</b></i> band is playing Dallas that evening, But theor name escapes me.) for vacation.

Debbie is a nurse and knew going in what to expect, But the staph infection was the main cause for the lengthy hospital stay (Also Chemo reacts differently with a person with diabetes, Which can be a concern). But Debbie looks at it with a slight sense of humor, She lost some unwanted weight...Just not the way she expected (Hospital food has a way of causing that...LOL!!!).

the calendar is as <i><b>snazzy</b></i> as possible (I just received it from a cd/tape transfer trade...Thanks <b>Jen</b>!!!) and IMHO it is very disappointing (I have seen <b>TONS</b> of better quality pictures on fan websites compared to the sub-standard ones used in this calendar.)

Yeah, it is pretty bad. I have to muster up strength to look at sweaty Mick every day for three whole months. And John looks so damned bored. :laugh: I would've loved for it to have had some full band pics and more of Lindsey and Stevie.
