Re: Subscription Question?

It usually takes around a month for the first subscription issue to come through.

Re: Subscription Question?

Probably, although if there's a rush on subscriptions you may not start your sub until the May issue.

But you will still get however many issues you subscribe for, and will of course get any in-magazine offers we introduce during the term of your subscription.

I think I forgot to mention I thought about doing a 9 month subscription to coincide hopefully with the golden ticket issue.


What do you think? Probaly should of mention that up above you are not a mind reader are you.


Thanks

Re: Subscription Question?

Two points:

  1. As far as I know we offer three-month or annual susbcriptions, not a nine-month one
  2. The Golden Ticket is not a regular annual event: we did it for the first time last year, and there's no guarantee we will run the same promotion again this year
  3. And you did mention the Golden Ticket above, so no haruspex on my part
  4. Yes I know, that's three points. Four now.

Just had a fight with your quote thing.


I thought about a 3 issue special promotion thing, followed by a 6 month subscription.


Really I for some reason for it was a annual thing the golden ticket thing, I think my mind is going walk about's.

Re: Subscription Question?

Why is it you can't pay in one lum sum for the trail issue by credit card and also the 6 months afterwards?


Thanks

Re: Subscription Question?

Because the whole idea is that you can have a trial, see whether you like it, and then decide in three months whether you want to continue.

Not that I'm trying to put you off or anything, but why are you so keen to have a nine-month subscription?

1. I don't need a hdmi cable for the 12 month one,


2.  9 issue's for 22.80 sounded like a good deal to me.


3.  But I am being put off by the way you have to pay for it.

Re: Subscription Question?

Can't I just pay £3.00 by credit card for the trail, instead of bank instalements?


Thanks

Apologies, but the way the system is currently set up we can only organise those offers found on the subscriptions page or in the magazine. You could try calling our subs department direct on 08456 777 800 - they may be able to arrange something for you.
