              Resolved
              I ordered two magazines from Magazines.com years ago. I asked them to cancel my order last year. They keep playing games and pretending that my address and payment information is not on file, yet I keep receiving magazines and charges from them despite me asking repeatedly to cancel.Sometimes, they do not respond at all. If I call them, then they pretend not to be able to find my information. They plan to not cancel my order regardless of my complaint.They are scammers and need to be put out of business.

              01/28/2024

              We have repeatedly tried to email this company to send back a book that was not ordered. No one email back. We have tried to call and were told to email. My mother in law did not order this book, she was tricked and she is being invoiced. I will not let her send a check in to cover it, I want someone to get a hold of me so that we can get this book sent back and I want no more correspondence with this company ever again.
