    On 3/5/24, my Bank record shows a payment of $46.28 sent for magazine subscription. I called shortly after to cancel the subscription, and on 3/19/24, received an email stating my subscription had been cancelled, and $e6.28 had been refunded to my bank **** card.Upon checking my account, I did not see the refund in my bank statement.I called the magazine company, and was advised they attempted to send the refund two times, and it had been declined.I called my Bank, and the agent stated the records do not reflect any refund sent to my account.I went back, and forth between the bank, nd the magazine company to no avail.The bank was willing to do a 3 way call, but the magazine company declined, saying no need to do that, instead providing me with a reference number would not help, as they never received the refund.Also the magazine company said they had sent an email to me in regards to my bank declining the payment, which I never received, and there is no problem with my email.I am out the $e6.2u, and that is not right, surely there has to be a way to refundd my money, as they can see that I have not received it!I

    Terrible company! Don’t use them! I ordered **** ******** in June of 2022. I only received 2 copies out of 6! Now they don’t answer their phones. I’m asking for a refund and they are avoiding me. I talked to a woman 2 weeks ago and said her manager was on vacation. He never emailed me and now they don’t answer their phone! DON’T GET A SUBSCRIPTION FROM THEM!

    The publisher of this title decided to cease the print publication of this magazine. The continued publication and business decisions of the publisher of any title is completely outside of our control. This customer received two print issues in accordance with the magazine's frequency before it ceased the print publication. The publisher was planning on issuing digital issues to fulfill the remainder of subscriber's orders but we offered full refunds for the original purchase price. This customer was issued a full refund on 1/5/2023. We emailed this consumer on 1/5/2023 before they opened this complaint on 1/12/23 with an explanation and a full refund prior to this complaint submission. In any event, we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or confusion they may have had but by no stretch of the imagination did we "avoid" this consumer. We are constantly looking for ways to improve customer communications and this customers comments are helpful in that endeavor.
