If I'm wrong please enlighten me...

Real problem here is you're just expecting too much. They are labeled Premium not 'EXTRAFREEDUMBSHTINSIDE'. If anything they were added as a service to premium users in the event that all other channels are full but we all know that's never happened!

Just like on BF3 there are servers that are premium only. The servers don't give any bonuses, but they're there so that premium players get extra servers to choose from.

New user here. I have a simple free account. I have not used the cash shop at all. The use of the term "premium" would suggest that a "premium" channel be something extra, something you would have to pay for. Despite this, I am able to access the premium channels. Not sure if this is an error, or if, in fact, there is no actual difference from premium to non-premium?

You get 7 (or was it 14?) days of free premium when you make a new account.

No I don't think I'm asking too much but you do makes a valid point about the added serves for premium users. Thanks
