In order to receive a prize or reward, winning members must contact THE FAN 590 in accordance with instructions provided as part of this program, or provided online in connection with a specific offering, AND comply with the instructions provided by THE FAN 590 personnel for verification and deduction of FAN Points balances.

Failure to comply with the instructions may result in disqualification, at the sole discretion of THE FAN 590. Any member that has a "winning" bid, and then fails to demonstrate they have the needed FAN Points in their account following an audit, will not be entitled to receive the award or prize and, at the discretion of THE FAN 590, will have their FAN Points balance forfeited.

Member FAN Point totals are subject to adjustment, and member accounts are subject to suspension or cancellation, by THE FAN 590 for any activity which is in violation of any rules, or which is not in compliance with the intent of the program.

Members will be notified of any such adjustments through a posting in the history log (viewable in the Transactions section of My Account in THE FAN Club) or through an email sent to the email address in the member's account profile.  Should the member disagree with any FAN Points adjustment or account suspension, the decision of THE FAN is final and the remedy may involve Member withdrawal from the program.
