I did not subscribe and do not want your magazine. Yet you billed me

Please remove this bill

No support of any kind, The merchandise does not work as described, essentially I bought a $100 paperweight. I just want the thing to work correctly the website is poorly designed nothing works on the website for the cashew. Can I please get some help. This is really calls for me to take this to the BBB, And I have absolutely no problem doing that. I bought this wallet on good faith through your website however I was not to understand that there was gonna be zero to zilch support of any kind the chat link does not work it has an automated response. And in addition the paperweight has lights that blink on it when you touch them. Come on guys you got to do better than this at least test the stuff out for a couple of months

I bought a your Popular Mechanics car cover at Ollie's Outlet in Fredericksburg Virginia.
It 'stated on the box that Size XL will fit over a 1971 Monte Carlo, (SKU 663040). It is too
small . The sizing information on the box is not correct. ( Trn 09573, Str:124 5/19/20, 12:35pm sales ticket.
Any help in finding a cover that correctly fits my 1971 Monte Carlo would be appreciated.
I do not know when I will be in Virginia again.

I have paid for a popular mechanics magazine until march 2021, I havent received a magazine since august 2019, I contacted popular mechanics by Email. I received an email reading that they received my payment and my magazine would resume, then I received an Email reading my subscription has been canceled. #[protected] I believe they have me mixed up with someone else, there may be 2 account numbers, I would like popular mechanics magazine to resume for the issues I have paid for, or refund my payment,

I have already spoken twice with your company, and I am still having the darn thing mailed to me. To make matters worse, my mailman is not returning the magazines. I don't know where to go from here. Please give me some advice.

Dear sir, I received the september issue of your mag which I enjoy. However when I got it out of the plastic and started to read it. The first couple pages fell out. I thought no big deal and continued more and more pages fell out. What is going on is their a glue shortage?

Please send me another magazine — jim

Subscribed early 2018 and until today haven't receive even th 1st copy.
Repeated emails to courtney, hallie and marolynn unfortunately ended with deaf ears.
This subscription is a huge loyal 3-years but after 6 month, I am beginning to regret this move.
For all you new subscribers, I advice you just stick to the 6month or yearly subscription so you won't fall into this trap.

I have tried to stop any and all regular and "gift" subscriptions to no avail! There is no published phone number to make a human contact with.
A bill keeps being sent to me for "gift renewals" that I do not want!
How do I stop this? Customer service is a joke in that it will not service a customer in any way! I will never subscribe with hurst again!

I am receiving 2 issues each month due to receiving past due billing notices from popular mechanics. Please discontinue and refund these 2 subscriptions

Popular mechanics and hearst should be a trusted magazine publisher. These deceptive past due notices and required continuous subscription are a scam.

I continue receiving "unpaid account invoice" with $34. Amount due. This is not an unpaid balance, but is listed as such. Each renewal I have paid in advance. I chose not to renew so ignored repeated letters "don't let your friends' gift end... Or forfeit your special savings rate... Just because you waited too long to pay your bill."
Fine print at bottom of their letter states "your gift subscription(s) will continue to be sent to your designated recipient(s) until you ask us to stop." this was never stated when initially paid for a designated time. Obviously, I am stopping my gift subscription by not renewing! Furthermore, my personal subscription was not renewed, and those magazines did stop at my residence.

Resolution: popular mechanics is undertaking a scam and I want these letters and "unpaid account invoices" to stop. I have no idea if the unauthorized "gift" continues to be sent or not. If it was sent without my authority, they should not bill me for it.

Hi,
I paid for a subscription in august, and never receive the magazine.
I wrote three times to them explaining the case.

They have a very very bad customer service,
And this is the first and last time I do business with them.

I used to subscribe to popular mechanics, a magazine published by hearst publications.in an effort to keep within my budget, I decided not to renew the subscription. However, hearst sent me a bill anyway. Since I did not agree to renew my subscription, I did not pay the bill. Hearst then sent me another bill, which I wrote “cancel – did not order” on the bill and returned. I did this twice more. Then I received a notice from sunrise credit services, inc., a collection agency, telling me to pay up!
The bill? $10! And hearst has not sent the magazines to which they are so diligently trying to get paid! Why am I concerned over $10? Because it is unethical and coercive behavior that should be illegal. $10 from me is not much, but if this is their standard practice, it adds up to a significant amount, as most people would probably “pay off” the company…
