Country Home magazine--out of business
Comments (29)I wasn't happy when I got my March 2009 issue (in Feb) and found out that Country Homes was discontinued and I would be getting Better Homes & Gardens. Here it is June and I haven't seen any issues of BHG. I e-mailed them- they couldn't answer my e-mail (?) so I called them today (6/15). I was told I would get my first issue in OCTOBER! That is 7 months after my last issue of Country Home. Their "customer service" rep told it is was because they didn't have enough magazines yet for all the Country Home subscribers. And then she told me they were extending my subcription until 10/10- two months after my Country Homes subcription would have expired. How is that extending my subcription when you give me 2 extra months but I have to wait 7 months to get the 1st issue. I told them NO THANKS-even though it wasn't a big amount of money I told them send it back and keep your magazine,...See MoreEmbarrassing, Misleading Mail From Magazines, Etc.
Comments (6)From an article on consumerist.com "Direct mailers don't believe in the concept of opting in, so if you want to cut down on the amount of straight-to-the-trash mail you receive, you'll need to contact them directly and request that your name is removed. ForestEthics�the group behind the Do Not Mail Registry petition we blogged about earlier, has gathered several ways to contact the offending parties. 1. Use their form to generate 17 ready-to-mail requests to different direct mail companies. DoNotMail will take the data you enter and create a PDF document with all 17 letters ready to print and send. If you don't want to enter your personal info into a random site, you can use fake data and then download the PDF document for a reference to create your own letters. 2. Contact Opt-Out Prescreen online or at 1-888-567-8688 (888-5-OPT-OUT) from your home telephone . 3. Email your removal request to Abacus Direct at optout@abacus-us.com 3. Remove your name from ADVO Inc. by calling 1-888-241-6760 or completing the form at www.advo.com/consumersupport.html 4.

Get off Val-Pak's list by filing out the form at http://www.coxtarget.com/mailsuppression/s/DisplayMailSuppressionForm 7. To remove yourself from Acxiom's list, you must request a mail-in opt-out form by calling 1-877-774-2094. 8.

Comments (25)The last time I picked up an actual, honest-to-goodness printed magazine (passed along to me by a friend), it was a slightly surreal experience since I'd not done so in a very long time. I used to LIVE for magazines. Well, ok, that's perhaps a bit of an exaggeration, but I do remember being so excited when one of my country decorating (hey, it was the 80s) magazines would arrive in the mail or something "wonderful" would show up on the newsstand. When my ex and I were still together, he and I had a Friday night routine of going out for dinner and then stopping by one of the larger grocery stores near our home and browsing through the magazines. There's not a lot about "life with X" that I look back on fondly, but I do recall that little routine with a certain happy feeling in my heart. (It was all down to the excitement of discovering a new magazine and a belly full of Tex-Mex, though. Pretty sure it had nothing to do with him.) ;-p...See MoreAphaea
