      Complaint Type:
      Billing Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      On October 26th, 2022, online I subscribed to the Globe and Mail for $6/month (6.90$ tax included). I received an email stating that I have now access to Globe and mail. Within that e-mail there was an attachment (that I did not see until a couple of weeks ago) stating in VERY SAMLL PRINT that my renewal would be 32.15$/month once my 1 year subscription expires. This attachment was sent October 2022. I called G&M clientele service several times on that issue. I explained that I did not receive a heads up that my credit card would be charged. They said that I had received an attachment on October 2022 that upon my renewal I would be charged monthly full price 32.15$ I explained that this email was sent a year ago and I didn't receive a warning that upon expiration I would be automatically charged. Every call they would tell me that a superviser would get back within 24 hours. After 48-72 no call back; I had to start the process again. I finally spoke to Kimberly who sent me an email asking me to explain in detail the situation. I did not understand what she was asking.. I called back (4th time) and again "someone will contact you within 24 hours". Still no call..so much confusion about this issue.

      * ***** **** **** ******* * ***** ** * ***** regarding their questionable subscription model. I would not recommend subscribing to this company. If you get a one year subscription they will not notify you when it is close to expiring. Instead that introductory rate will just 3-4 times when you are automatically renewed. No notice no nothing. So your introductory rate at the time of this writing could be $9.99 a month and it will jump to $29 a month or your one year rate that you paid $99 a year for could jump to $436.25 a month. ***** *** ***** ********* at least warn you that your rate will increase. This company is hoping you won't remember to call them in a year to cancel so they can gauge you 12 months down the road. ** **** ***** **** **** ** ********** ******** ******** ** **** ****** **. At the very least it should be the same rate as before.
