I had a similar situation once but it turned out I didn't read the fine print because even though I had a "lifetime" membership, the company could revoke it at any time for any reason.

One of those life lessons you can really only learn the hard way.

Wait until you find out about "lifetime" warranties. It turns out that in California, the only guarantee you have on a so-called "lifetime" warranty is that it has to have a duration of at least 3 years. I'd be willing to bet most states don't have any better legal guarantees.

This is why I consider "lifetime" to be the same as "natural" on food packaging: it is entirely without meaning.

But I just learned it the easy way :)
