Lexi Posted January 7, 2018 at 04:09 PM Posted January 7, 2018 at 04:09 PM I was wondering what the added value is of being a Team Céline member. The only advantage of membership I am noticing, is the pre-sales for shows and concerts. What happened with Team Céline (TC) during the years? I was away for many years, but Céline got me back to where I belong, which is in her crowd ;-) I remember I was a TC member in 1997-1999, and I remember membership was based on a yearly amount. I remember begging my dad to use his creditcard, to pay for it. I remember, being a member, I’d receive some goodies in the (analogue) mailbox. Some photos. A newsletter. A gold membership card... What happened to all of this? Everyone can be a member now, without paying. Everyone can sign up and get the pre-sales codes. Is there a TC-only content on the official website? Because I seem not to find it. So... again... what is the added value of Team Céline... and being a member, besides from the pre-sales codes... 1 Quote
Celine Fan 77 Posted January 8, 2018 at 09:33 AM Posted January 8, 2018 at 09:33 AM I remember when I joined Team Céline in mid 2009 it was still a yearly amount (I think 60€), and they still had exclusive material for members. Not as cool as the newsletters, photos... etc. from the 90s but still some cool in-studio videos, making-of photoshoots... etc. A few days after I joined TC they sent me a member card (with Celine's Taking Chances cover photo on it), a welcome letter and a Céline Dion bookmark. I think it was late 2010 when Team Celine became free and all the possible added values to the fan club became just the pre-sale codes and e-mails to let fans know when Celine starts her next series of shows. I believe Team Celine really started to go down when Sony Music bought it (don't ask me when but sometime during the late 90s). How I wish the good old days could come back! 1 Quote Tournée Européenne in Paris (December 1, 2013)Céline Dion Live 2016 in Antwerp (June 20, 2016)Céline Dion Live 2017 in Birmingham (July 27, 2017)
angelil78 Posted January 8, 2018 at 10:06 AM Posted January 8, 2018 at 10:06 AM Team Céline was very good in the early 2000... We got a birthday present in the mail every year and sometimes random gifts in the mail. Very cool! Wish they would bring back the old Team Céline 3 Quote
CSCfan Posted January 8, 2018 at 10:39 AM Posted January 8, 2018 at 10:39 AM Simple: the only benefit is the pre-sale now. And even that's questionable. They don't have to create exclusive content anymore coz they're free. They only want your e-mail addy's and they're happy. 2 Quote »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» MATHIAS ««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««««https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzPrxI0AIDY

frana Posted January 8, 2018 at 11:14 AM Posted January 8, 2018 at 11:14 AM The fact that you are in the Celine team is just a metaphor for fans.And it's good that it's free to be there. And the benefits of being V.I.P.unfortunately have only a chosen few fans group.

Simon Posted January 8, 2018 at 12:43 PM Posted January 8, 2018 at 12:43 PM Nice! What kind of presents did they send? I bought the TC memership a few weeks before it became a free fan membership, so I didn't get a birthday present but a welcoming gift for joining the club. It was a postcard, a keychain and a club card with my name on it (like a Credit Card). Looks pretty cool but has no use 1 Quote You could see? I could break!

Daysleeper Posted January 8, 2018 at 05:04 PM Posted January 8, 2018 at 05:04 PM I just remembered that in 1998 they sent a copy of "These Are Special Times" CD to the members of Fan Club. Everyone got it except me. No reply after I asked them why they didn't think of me. Did some of you received it? Nevertheless, I think that was really generous of them and it was a great period to be a fan. Quote

Nevertheless, I think that was really generous of them and it was a great period to be a fan. Yeah! I remember getting that one! And I also remember the discount on good seats for concerts, and indeed the discount in the Céline shop. Which actually was not a shop, but a folder that was sent to you, and you could scribble down the catalogue numbers on an order form and send it (by mail, including the begging dad for the credit card again.....), and then waiting by the mailbox.... forgetting about it after a few days... and then totally surprised by the TC mail a few weeks later. I remember getting a pen, writing paper and envelopes. A key chain 1 Quote
Lexi Posted January 8, 2018 at 06:36 PM Author Posted January 8, 2018 at 06:36 PM Anyway, it’s way too sad that the fanclub is no longer a fanclub anymore. 1 Quote
Javito Posted January 8, 2018 at 08:30 PM Posted January 8, 2018 at 08:30 PM (edited) You ask what happened to it, all these years? That it has nothing to do, by far, to what it once was . Because it went free, of course. Remember the year (2002) when they gave you a CD sampler as a gift for renewing, including TWO unreleased tracks (at that time)? THAT was an exclusive, and a gift for the fans, and not what they do today (mostly only offering presale tickets, and even that's VERY questionable since they DON'T always offer the best seats... :whistling: ) Edit: Oh I see everything was pointed out already lol. I wasn't the first moaner here then Edited January 8, 2018 at 08:35 PM by Javito Quote "Hush, now... I see a light in the sky"
4girlsathome Posted January 8, 2018 at 08:43 PM Posted January 8, 2018 at 08:43 PM But without the tickets in advance, many would not even get tickets. Don`t you book your tickets via TC with the code `? 1 Quote

Celinenvegas Posted January 16, 2018 at 04:17 PM Posted January 16, 2018 at 04:17 PM The old TC was great, even though we paid for it. We'd get all kinds of little gifts and surprises. I loved the gold colored snowflake with the "Celine" logo on it. There was a special section for TC members on the website, the ticket discount and seating was good, along with the discount in the store and boutique. Last time I went to Vegas I don't think I used the TC seats, they weren't good. Quote ~J O E Y~
