I got 2 from them 2. I have called. DH has been trying to get through. I have told them, "I order directly through the Magazine. AND WHY would I pay them 2 and 3X the price to order through them!!!!!!!!!!!"
Thanks for sharing this, I didn't think I was the only 1.

I stopped all magazine subscriptions several years ago. All said when I took out the first subscription that it is automatically renewed every year. I no it isn't. These were big name companies, not quilting magazines. Like I said, this was several years ago. I don't have time to read, other than local newspaper and quilt books I already have. One Magazine BH, use to send me renewal notices a couple times a year. When I finally took time to read the label I discovered I was paid up for about five years. I stopped that one too.

J quit all magazine subscriptions a long time ago as they would bill me a long time in advance I would pay then later get another bill that my magazine was about to expire and forget that I had paid them much earlier and did end up with long term on magazines so I just quit if I see something in a magazine I want I buy it as they stack up to fast anyway you are right more free patterns than I can use on the internet

I got one of those just a few days ago. I'm not even sure I subscribed to the magazine the bill was for but had earlier decided not to renew any subscriptions so into the trash it went. Thanks for the warning; I thought the magazine just turned its billing over to an outside company.

I was really getting frustrated with the subscriptions, seems I just signed up and paid online for a magazine, got 1 then have been getting bills ever since to renew. I got a years subscription. I was thinking the same thing, just not do subscriptions anymore, just buy them at the market. Never thought they were a fraud, now I guess I am glad I did not pay anymore on the US mail renewals I have recieved. Thanks for the heads up.
