Reader's Digest / Trusted Media Brands review: Terrible experience! 48

Is this a scam.. and if so ,what a horrable thing to do to loyal subscribers! We have come to trust the Readers Digest name and this is how you treat us. From now on watch what you are sending out in my subsciption.

I had the same experience. Is it a scam and if so why would RD be doing that. I mean Readers Digest has been around for ever and are (were) trusted as well! So what do they have to say for themselves?

Tile

Why put the insert in the Readers Digest if there's no site to enter the contest. I've always trusted RD and felt that anything with their name on it was legit. Not so?

It's not the first time with the rd. I've been a subscriber for years but this is it. I'm not renewing my subscription . Shame on you readers digest. The bigger they get the less I trust them.

when i tried to get to this website it was only about complaints about rd and I have same complaint as ones I seen in there. This is not the first time this has happened to me with this website.

I have tried to enter this so called "contest" as well, several times over the month with no results. I kept re-checking my spelling, as well, I e-mailed RD with no response. What up with the fake contest?!

I expected better from Reader's Digest.

I too just now have again tried to access the "Jackpot Contest" with no success. Since the contest 'closes February 29th, 2008 at midnight' this seems to be an exercise in futility! Surely RD should make a public apology for this mix up and whoever was in charge of enclosing the pamphlet with my magazine last month should be fired!

What a bunch of garbage to send to us. Try and try again for a www. address that doesn't exist. For shame!

I have tried to enter your jack pot contest e-mail which was sent to me on april 10/08 .I tried several times to gain entry to my e-mail; would not allow me to access my number.

Please be advised that when my current subscription expires I will no longer be renewing it. I am totally fed up with all the phony websites. Just got an insert with the last magazine that was for an ipodtouch. All that was necessary was to go to www.rd.ca/ipodtouch and enter the enclosed number. 65972. IT DOES NOT EXIST. So much for THAT.

Cannot obtain www.rd.ca/ipodtouch. No web site exists for this

I agree with all the above complaints. I, too tried to log on for the ipod with acess code: 65972...it does not seem to exist. Whats up with that? RD always seemed trustworthy.I wonder whats happening. I'm disappointed in them.

I too tried to enter the draw for the ipod and the web site apparently does not exist. This is no way to keep good customers.

not the first time for me also, , just received anothercontest in this months book, ipod giveaway, , no such site, , just complaints galore... french canada given the rest of the world the finger, , hummn just my humble opinion thanks in advance ...

They also give better magazine rates to Us customers and get very rude when you question why.

I received a notice of the contest "iPod touch. There is no such contest in the e mail address. Also, do we all have the same number? 65972.

RD, what gives here?

Just received my copy of Rd. Enclosed was a card to win an ipod. Of course you can not access the code 65972. What is it just a ploy to get your e=mail address or what. If you are going to run a contest at least let people enter. I know from now on the advertising material will go in the garbage unread.

Some one is not living up to there job description & passing the buck to some one else.Get better organized RD, your reparation is at stake.

contest - ipodtouch - cannot find. code on card 65972

the same problem -- tried to access the web site sent with this months magazine but unable to. This site was the only related site I could find.

I received opportunity to enter the www.rd.ca/ipodtouch with access code. However at the website no opportunity is found to enter.

Every time i receive mail i get things saying enter on line to win this or that. i thought Readers Digest was one of the legit magazines out there...I know they probably got paid a sum to put the insert in their magazine in their name, or at least i would hope it's an outside source because if it isn't then they have lost my respect...i have a suscription to the select edition books and to the magazine which i have enjoyed since i was young...but after this i am going to really think about renewing...if i wanted spam mail i would just turn off my blocker on my PC...

I have just received my Subscription copy of May month RD.
Enclosed was a card to access ? a website to win one of five Ipodtouch's there was also an access code shown.

I could not access your website no matter how many times I tried.
It seems, that similar to RD's frequent "million dollar " contests etc RD is sending out scams more and more.Its also similar to the " free offers " that relatives of ours recieved from RD many years ago and always signed by "Carolyn Dav is' I guess by now she is well retired and laughing her head off about she had scammed so many people.

Has RD finally lost its integrity and trying hard to be a run of the mill ragsheet magazine. If so its a pity.
Its time for me to consider renewing my Subscription.
I am very disappointed ( again ).

I have just received my Reader's Digest and in it was a card with the number 65976! on it. That means we don't all have the same number. I can tell you that the website www.rd.ca/ipodtouch definitely does not exist.

What are you guys talking about... I found the website no problem.

yes, me too...i thought rd is reliable...maybe all the contest are fake even the yearly draw...im not renewing my subscription...

and btw my card number is 65976 so sheila, we have the same no.

I have been trying to access for several days and can't get in this address www.rd.ca/ipodtouch; I called before but not data on this.
Please is somebody can answer back will be greatly appreciate.

65976 seems to be very popular, hopefully we all will win, provided we can enter ...somewhere.

Who ever is in charge of these contests should be hauled over the coals. They are NOT doing their job! This is not the first time this sort of thing has happened and it probably won't be the last.
Either straighten out the department or stop stuffing these false contest entries into the pages of your magazine.

How do I enter my access code for the I Pod contest?

the same problem i encountered stated above statements, access code 65976, i am amazed about the comments of those people to rd and im scared about it because me too i really respected this magazine i hope rd you can correct your mistakes and can afford to apologize to those clients.thank you.

I was really disappointed to realize it was a scam and my access code number too is 65972, and cannot be found. Sorry Reader's Digest you really hurt your reputation this time BIG.

i fully agree with ever complaint on this board.I just tried to sumbit my entry and found no website. My family have subsribed to REaders Digest for over 20 years. I am very disappointed with them scaming us like this, i might to rethink you subscription to there magazine

Sincerley

A VERY UNSATISFIED CUSTOMER

Reader's Digest...Shame on you! Misleading your paying customers of whom their loyalty YOU rely on. I too have found this 'ipod touch contest' to be a fraud. Are 'your other contests' as fraudulant also? I expected more from Readers Digest. The name 'used' to be one of reputable mention in our home, unfortunately for Readers' Digest, now we will be buying 'other' reading material. Folks it just goes to show us that once a name has been established by quality...the quality eventually does not remain a priority of the now established name...the almighty $$$$ has become the priority. DISGUSTED!

...as an additional note, to those of you who think that you have an original access code...well you don't! Access Code:65976 is the number that we were given. Many of you also have the same number. Original Access Code My ###! Good Luck Readers' Digest...try and recover from this blunder!

Same...no such address

what a sham!

I am having the same problems the rest of your complaintants are having, can't access the site for the ipod.

Dear Mr. Candace Brahms,

I am surprised to receive an Italian email after that your operator told me there are no Italian speaking operators into your support team.

This should be clearly that you are using format email to ask every time new different things AND NOT SPECIFIED ALL AT THE VERY BEGIN OR AT THE SECOND EMAIL, NETHER THE FORTH OR THE TENTH E! MAIL I have sent.

In these past 5 (five) months I have sent at least 20 (twenty) emails in according to your requests.

Within your web site there are no specifications about:

TO GET THE MONEY YOU OWN ME I HAVE TO:

1- SEND A COPY LEGALLY AUTHENTICATED OF MY ID
2- SEND A UTILITY BILL NOT OLDER THAN THREE MONTH WITH THE ADDRESS USE WITHIN THE ACCOUNT REGISTRATION.
3- THE IP OF THE PC i USE TO SEND EMAIL MUST BE EVER THE S! AME.
4- THE EMAIL ADDRESS USED TO FORWARD EMAIL MUST BE THE ADDRESS USE WITHIN THE ACCOUNT REGISTRATION.

And more, once you did not receive my email, once this once that.

OK, I did every thing you have asked me, without any reason (Within your web site there are no specifications about this.)

I am very patience and I am almost happy about this because I am collecting so many interesting information about your organization.

I am sorry to say that at this time I did not receive any attachment about, as you wrote in Ital! ian, "Modulo di Dichiarazione di Deposito e un sommario dei Suoi depositi fino ad oggi." translated should be: a deposit declaration module and a summarise of my deposits until today.

I hope you will be kind enough to forward me another copy of these documents.
In the mean time I hope the the fax I will use to send you these modules signed do not need to be the same telephone number I have ! used within the registration otherwise I will have to buy a fax machin e! LOL

Are you going to pay me the time I have spent, faxes, scannerisations, legalisation of my ID, interest of the maney, mine, you still keep after 5 and more months? I think you will not.

But one thing is sure as my name is Larniani, I will get my money back.

Have a nice day and best regards,

Your Fair fully,

AJJL
