Hello
Long story short, when I upgraded my membership to be a life member it was not clear as to the fee involved.
So when I received my welcome packet and invoice showing the total I was very surprised. It took me a couple of weeks to decide if I really wanted to pay that much.
Well I decided to make the payments to make it easier to afford. In my welcome kit I received a small nylon bag with a note saying this was my first test product. I thought it was a joke.
Anyway I didn't know where to submit a review for this item. That's been a couple of months ago.
By not submitting a review for that will that hurt my chances of getting products in the future?
Also I have purchased a couple of the books and with them have been included product samples to test. Again no instructions where to submit a review.
Again will that put me on a list to not get products to test in the future? |

I'm sorry for the run on. I am posting from my mobile phone and it keeps removing my line spaces. |

The club has a bad habit of calling every free gift or perk they send you a field test item. If they ever send you a REAL field test item, you will receive an e-mail stating that it is on its way. You can check your status as a field tester by clicking on the FIELD TEST heading.  |

I was just thinkin'...how did he miss the price? The letter they sent me only said about a hundred times how I was getting over a thousand bucks worth of stuff for $300.  |

Anything that comes with the books and/or DVDs is just a freebee, not a field test item. When you get a legitimate field test item you will also receive instructions on how to evaluate the item and how to submit your evaluation.

I've been a member for over one year now and still haven't received a test item. Unless you count "Fishidity" or whatever the hell it was called. Worthless "test product!" |

Mr. Hardison: The short answer is "No." You are not required to review the Field Test premiums you receive with your Life Member Kit or book purchase in order to remain active in the Field Test program. Kurt--NAF Editor.

Mr. Beckstrom, I think part of the issue is refering to them as Field Test Premiums. If they were just refered to as gifts or free items the Qs about field test would be resolved. I've seen similar Qs in the forums before, and as long as members get the impression that they are part of the field testing program the question will continue to be raised. |
