This company is such a rip off, I too like everyone else that has wrriten a ripped off report have been scammed. I get calls from this company all the time.

I started out with a few magazines for $39.95 per month for 10 months. Was called by them every so ofter to see how I liked my service. Each time I was called I changed my magazine to less was told my payments were reduced, but in fact they were not.

Today I called again since last week they called me reduced my rate and cancled some magazines, to my surprise I had 3 accounts. One that was paided in full, one that was cancled and one that was active. I was getting 10 magazines per month, some of which I have never recived.

I took the advice of the last person that wrote a report, I contacted my mastercard company and have now put a stop to all further billings by them. I have never recived any contract in the mail and was not even aware that they created more accounts and was double billing me.

Please if you have had an experance with this compay please file a report her and please file a report at the FTC, here is the website address, just copy it and please file a report.

Please read the updat to the rip-off report you cited from Yorktown Virginia. There is additional information on how to get the magazines companies themselves to help you stop being harassed.

Good idea in the FCC complaint. I'll take it.
