A change for the better

So, what happens to those of us who have paid for a 50-issue subscription to the old not-as-beautiful current version?

If the shelf price is £6.99 (you'd best keep the content levels up for that sort of money) why is the subscription price £90 for 12 issues (£7.50 per issue)?

I hear the 1dV is going to have a built in calculator function, that'll come in handy for you.

Actually, the £90 tag prize refers to the old weekly format. The new subscription rates (where a subscribers will save £2 on each issue) will go live on 03 March, when the issue is available in the newsstands.

So....those of us that have paid a £90 subscription for £60 of magazines..... you'll be refunding us I take it?

Actually, your subscription will be extended to fit what you paid. You won't lose out. So for example, depending on when you subscribed, you will be getting a 18-month subscription instead of a 12-month one.

"a subscribers will save £2 on each issue"

It's £6.99 in the shops and £5.25 for subscribers - sorry to be the bearer of more bad news by that's not £2...

It's £5.25 when you subscribe for one year by cheque, and £4.99 per issue when you subscribe by direct debit.

And for those of us who signed a contract for 50 weekly magazines and don't want the 12 "beautiful" monthly ones, you'll be refunding our money,yes.

That's not a question, btw, it's a statement. You've materially changed both product and the terms of delivery.

What about those of us that don't want an extended subscription to a magazine we didn't susbscribe to in the first place?

You are free to unsubscribe, and you will receive a refund for the remainder of your contract, simple as that. You can contact our customer services to cancel:
