I joined the handyman club of America as a life time member and paid my membership dues in November 1997. I received my membership papers and card, membership #******, and I started receiving the Handy magazine monthly. I received the magazine and tester items for a few years and then everything stopped. I haven't received anything for several years now, and I just went online and found this site with the other complaints. So I figured I'd file a complaint whether it's too late to get any satisfaction or not I figured at least you have a record of my complaint. A refund would be appreciated just because of the way they treated me and the other members.Initial Complaint

To whom it may concern: I'm filling this complaint against Handymanclub.com/Handymanclub of America. I became a life member back in 2007. In which I paid $400.00 for a llife membership. I recently noticed couple of months back that they are no longer in business in which I though it was a joke at first. I'm glad i went on your site to confirm my suspicions sadly to say and realized that it was true according to your site and its testimonials. I hope somehow you can help me out; maybe hopefully i can help someone else in the near future in not making the same mistake I made by filling this complaint. Thank you very kindly A concern citizen..!Initial Complaint

I paid for a LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP in June 2007 with Handyman Club of America. It cost $300. It did not seem long until the magazines and benefits disappeared. To date, I have never received any explanation or refund for their disappearance. This is being filed by Amy Harrison ([email protected]) on behalf of Annie Harrison, who is my mother and she is visually impaired.Initial Complaint
