You will receive additional points for purchases already made and see these points reflect on your account around September 11, 2011.
FAQs for existing @Gamer Subscribers:
What if I already paid for an @Gamer subscription?
All current @Gamer subscribers will be mailed a coupon to join Reward Zone Gamers Club Unlocked for free! @Gamer subscribers will also receive a coupon within their September issue to redeem within any Best Buy store allowing them to get the Reward Zone Gamers Club membership for free.
If I am already subscribed and chose to join in Gamers Club Unlocked, how many issues will I have coming when the changes happen in September?
@Gamer Subscriptions will restart upon enrollment of Reward Zone Gamers Club Unlocked. Meaning, if you have four issues left in your current subscription, upon enrollment you will receive 10 issues; not 14. If you have purchased the two year @Gamer subscription online, you will get the balance of what you have not received. For example, if you had 18 issues left to receive, you will still receive 18 issues; not 28.
What if I subscribed to @Gamer after the news about Gamers Club Unlocked went out?
If you signed up for @Gamer between Aug. 12 and Sept. 11, you will receive your coupon with a letter that will arrive in September.
As a current @Gamer subscriber, how long will I have to sign up for Gamers Club Unlocked for free?
You will have between Sept. 12 and Oct. 26 to redeem your offer.
