Magazine Source RIP OFF* SCAM Des Moines Iowa
I have just recently discovered that magazine source has me supposedly in there system for more then one account!! At first when I encountered mag source I had agreed to have 7 magazines of my choice sent to me. things were going fine until one day I received a bank statement from my bank showing that they had taken out more than once within a 3 day period(two different prices)
Not only did I discover that but I also noticed that I had a whole new other other magazine company(Publishers Renewal Service) taking money from me.at this point i was dumbfounded, so i called both companies.the first company i called,PRS,informed me that i had an account for quite sometime and that i was already passed the cancelation date(Three business days!)so in the end there was nothing i could do.
The second company,Mag Source,informed me that someone had called me from there and i agreed to add an additonal account with them for another 5 years!! WHY ON EARTH WOULD SOMEONE AGREE TO THAT!? I did some investigation and found out that Publishers Renewal Service is just one of many fictitious names for Magazine Source(kind of funny but not huh?)And someone has a class action suit against Mag source. So now i am taking matters into my own hands. i have since been to my bank and filed affidavits against both of these companies to stop electronic withdrawls from my account. my next step is to write to the attorney general,and possibly involve the better business bureau.So if there is anyone out there who has encountered these same situations it would be nice to hear a positive response. or maybe someone out there might have defeated this problem? until then GOOD LUCK TO ALL!!!!!!!!!
