I did not reorder the Redbook but when I have ordered the redbook I pay in advance, and never order any magazine, without paying right away. I have many magazines that say I have a ordered these magazines. Some are honest and let you cancel by phone, or on the Internet, where do I find a way to stop Hearst sending magazines I did not order. Please cancel all magazines.
Thank you.

The Good Housekeeping Magazine web site posts several sweepstakes offers (contests). To enter, you type your name, postal address, & email address onto a form. Presto! You're just subscribed to Good Housekeeping. Even if you select an Unsubscribe link, invoices start coming. This is fraud. I no longer trust Good Housekeeping - & they pretend to be consumer advocates. Ha! Not true.

I have a copy of my original 1 year subscription to House Beautiful Magazine from Aug. '08. I cancelled their sneaky 'continuous renewal program' in May of '09. To date I've received no less that 4 threatening collection letters and they are still sending me the magazine.

Recieved a letter from Hearst Magazines today stating that I did not send in payment when I indicated on a subscription card that they could "bill me later". This was in Oct of 2008 and it is 9/23/09. After spending a good hour on line attempting to find a phone number for Hearst--I called the folks at Food Network Magazine and was told by the agent there that Hearst owns them and that she could help me with my Good Housekeeping issue. I told her that I sent in payment Oct 22 2008 and that I have proof that the check cleared my bank. She told me that the letter was for an automatic renewal--i never agreed to that-- and that she would cancel the renewal--we'll see--This letter in no way states that it is for a renewal and of course does not include a phone number to call them. I will no longer deal with this company as it is poor business practice to send a letter to someone with the intent of accusing them of failure to pay and not include a phone number for the customer to call. Furthermore, to automatically renew a person's subscription without their authorization is fraudulant!! Now I can see why my mother who is afflicted with Alzheimer's has 3 magazine subscriptions renewed until 2015!!! This is a consumer scam, Hearst knows it and yet no one has taken them to task about it. I think everyone that has experienced this needs to contact their state's attorney general's office and file a complaint. Maybe then this will stop. Thinking also that the phone call I made today will not take care of this matter--will wait and see!!

O'at Home magazine and Womans Day magazine were both renewed automatically and payment was deducted from my checking account.
I telephoned and cancelled the next day .. Jan. 27/2009 for the Womans Day - confirmation # given me is 139948478. I cancelled O'at Home on Jan 28, 2009 - confirmation # 140019040.
It is now April 3rd and still no credit has been rec'd in the checking acoount of $29.00 and $24.00.
What in the world do you have to do to get your money back.
All you get is a computer generated voice when you call.
