this is a scam and you will receive something from a collection agency with a cancellation date prior to the receipt of the letter so you can not get out of this. I will be fighting it but I urge you to avoid this with everything in your power. They called my husband at work and refused to take no and he was too busy to argue. Don't let this happen to you!

it is not a scam. the offer is pretty straight forward if you enjoy magazines. have gotten my money's worth and it is not much at all. good product/magazine service. however, their customer service managers are extremely rude and pushy... hence, their lack of formal education is quite evident.

I am very happy with the magazines I'm getting through these folks for less than four bucks a week. No complaints from me.

Thanks for the info, I just received a call from them. He didn't mention the charge until after I was told their wouldn't be a cost. I declined the offer and immediately looked them up. Thanks again for your comments

Not a scam. It is a no frills and very cheap magazine service. Only an idiot would protest four dollars a week. I get my daily newspaper delivered to my home for about $5.99 a week. So why not my magazines?! Again, only an idiot would have an issue with this.

Scam or no scam 6 magazines a month for 3.97 a week is a good deal. But if its so great then why trap people in with a no cancelation policy? what are you afriad of if what you're offering is so good? Something is wrong with this picture.

if you are running a valid business you should really reconsider your no cancelation policy. it scares people. you're calling them at home or work. they can't see you or know who you are and even if they buy into you "great product" it feels more like a trap if they can't get out of it if they'd like to. Your product should be good enough that they wouldn't want to get out of it even if they could. Bad customer service!

To Carol.. I have close relations with the company. They are straight forward about their product and they let you know when asked anything you would like to know. Your husband if he did not want the service could have easily hung up. They would not have called him back or even bothered with him if he didnt express some interest. The confirmers in the company let you know before your order is placed that you are being entered into the club for 36 months with out cancellation. Some people do not like the fact of a larger commitment and are un aware because they just don't ask the question. There are 2 different times where your husband was contacted so not only did he accept the terms the first time he allowed the supervisors to call him back. They are doing their job just like everyone else and it's about money, they would not have sacraficed their job knowing that he didn't really want it... It's called sales and that's what happened. He got Sold and now the aftermath is too heavy for you. On another note you can change the selection around anytime you would like and your price remains the same seriously who ever stops reading only thing that will change is what you enjoy...That's why they offer you 6 out of over 150 to choose from...

They NEVER say there is no cost...The magazines are prepaid for your only pay is to get them to you....They use words that idiots get confused by such as prepaid for...with out usual newstand charges....

I have signed up with them twice thus far. Enjoyed my experience the first time around and I did it again. There has never been an issue. Only issues I am having are my ISSUES (Get it?)of my favorite magazines coming to my home. No fusses, no stresses just plenty of good magazines.

I've worked here for years. We always tell the customer exactly whats going on. 6 magazines, 36 months, $3.92 a week. You can change your selection around at anytime, some mags come weekly, some monthy, whatever you select you get them as they are published. The cost stays the same because they are all paid ahead of time for you, so no price increase Its a very fair deal.

this is a scam, they called me at work and convince me to order the magazines, its almost 2 months and I only received 2 magazines, now they have a different story as for shipping terms, it will take 6-8 weeks. my question is if it takes that long why didn't they mention this and besides, they will look forward for payment in one month and I still won't have the magazines as promised !

I've been with the service for two years now, it's exactly what they say. 6 maagazines for 36 months. if you take the sevice finish it out and stop complaining. it's very clear when they call.

Daily Horoscope for May 21

Cancer

Take care because it's a rather downbeat day. You feel as though you have the cares of the world on your shoulders, and maybe you have. You've certainly got to cope with a lot of responsibility and duty, and there could also be delays and disappointments that need to be negotiated. Yes, it's a fairly miserable day but try to rise above it, otherwise you'll soon start to feel really wretched and sorry for yourself.
