I wish I knew. There seems to be no logic to it. I'm a pa*d member but am not always invited to things that other non VIP members get invites for.

It is very rare to get a reply from SFF when you email them.

It seems to be very random.
But I think it is based on demographics in terms of your age, where you live, male or female, etc. So if you live Edinburgh, they are not going to send you invites to London screenings? So if for instance they want more male to a particular screening they may only invite male members, likewise if they wanted a younger audience. This is my theory and I may be totally wrong!

I would have no problems p*ying £1 for these tickets as it would be worth it I would be willing to use PayPal or credit/ Debit card if nessercey but there would have to be a full refund if event was cancelled

I'm sure I've read that the admin fee is non-refundable.

I don't mind p*ying a bit for Theatre tickets, they are so expensive, that any chance to see something is welcome. I'm wondering now how you can find out the status of your membership on SFF now. There's nowhere that says you have subscribed to EA's. I remember in the past, they used to cancel memberships randomly :confused: :roll:
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks
