ALERT:Chatelane Magazine-Did you receive?

[cheetah]

Just though I would put this out there. Last week I received a Chatelane Magazine in the mail. It was addressed to me yet I didn't recall any FREEBIE Magazine post for this. I then thought it might be a FREE ISSUE- but no where on the cover did it state that. I didn't think much more about it until I got an e-mail telling me how I could pay for my subscription online. WTF??
Was out there on other freebie sites tonight and guess what- lots of people have had the same problem. I went to customer service for Chatelane online and guess what- I owe them money and my next 13 issues are on their way!!

I just sent them off an e-mail to cancel all subscriptions in my name. I am always very careful not to check off any boxes that say subscribe now or any thing like that. This really ticks me off!! Did anyone else get fished in? If so I suggest you get on the phone or e-mail them right away.

aw that sucks. I hope you guys get that all figured out.

[turtle22]

I got a response from the email I sent them. They said to disregard any further notice and they will cancel it.

[cheetah]

Yes got this today too. Thank God- I don't want to pay for these,just got another magazine today!

[turtle22]

Now I have to figure out where the Taste of home subscription came from....?

[cheetah]

OMG Turtle, I didn't get that one. Good luck, I will let you know if any other forums are getting Taste of home. Cheers.

I apply for Free trial issues all the time. Just write cancel on your bill and mail it back to them. "Taste of Home" is a free trial too...just write cancel on the invoice and send back or go to their website and cancel online (send an email to their customer service too if you want to save a stamp!)

I have cancelled chatelaine and Im still getting it lol I got another issue about a week ago

[jmr1gone]

Happened to me to......and also entered into the reader's digest contest and ended getting a bill for that....so guess will be phoning chatelaine and reader's digest to cancel.

[cheetah]

I got another magazine too Turtle even though I cancelled online through customer service too. Hope I don't get a bill.
