What has happened to me is that when I originally subscribed, I paid for a 2-year subscription. About 2 months later I had to be out of town with a dd who was ill. While I was gone I received a bill from the mag saying I owed for my "1-year subscription"...which my husband paid without checking to see if it had been paid....so, now I have paid for a 3 year subscription.
quote=Eddie]I subscribed to "Quilt" magazine back in January 2010 for one year, and decided to let the subscription lapse when it came up for renewal. They sent several reminders to renew, etc., all of which I ignored.
Today, I get this in the mail from them:
UNPAID ACCOUNT
WE HAVE SENT YOU FOUR INVOICES AND HAVE NOT HEARD FROM YOU YET.
EITHER:
(1) PAY YOUR BILL OR
(2) CALL US AT #800-866-2886 TO TELL US WHY YOU HAVE NOT PAID.
OR WE WILL PLACE YOUR NAME ON OUR BAD PAY FILE.
P.S. If you have sent payment within the last two weeks, please disregard this notice.
This makes my blood boil when I see companies use threats and intimidation like this, simply because someone choose not to renew their subscription. GRRRRRRR!!!![/quote]
