Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

I'm lucky I don't have to watch my money down to the last penny. I just donate the ones I don't read to our local hospital waiting room, dr.'s waiting room, or St. Vincent's. Fighting for these refunds is an aggravation I just don't need. Self magazine sent me copies for two years beyond the normal one. That mag is totally useless unless you are into working out. Allure, Glamour, In Style, those I welcome.

Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

Thank you ladies for your help. I appreciate it.

Ibb38, it was for the Serena sweater. I just received my second one. I had no problem when it was the TS. That came with the card. This time, nothing.

I get a ton of magazines already one of which is Lucky. It's really not a favorite of mine so I have no desire to have extend my current subscription.

I've decided to not purchase any item that has the Lucky magazine attached in the future. In my experience, you only can get one refund. So if you reorder the item, you get stuck with the magazine subscription, which I throw unread into my recycle.

Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

just a fyi......when they are having the TS there is always a link to the refund offer on the item page. i always make sure to print that out the same time i place an order so that i have it all ready when my item comes. sometimes i keep the subscriptions, sometimes not. i have never had any problems getting a check back.

Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

I was wondering if I'd get a second refund. Oh well. If I don't, the magazine will just continue when my current subscription ends. No biggie.

Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

Why does HSN even do these magazine add-ons? It sounds like most people take the refund. I've done it myself a couple of times as a matter of fact.

I have honestly never bought a single thing simply "because" it had a magazine/refund offer with it though. One time I let the magazine come but when it ran out, I didn't renew it so they never made money off me that way.

No doubt there is something I am just not getting here.....I mean, I can see how it benefits me if I take the refund. I just don't see how it benefits HSN or the magazine. Unless HSN buys a certain number of subscriptions so the magazine doesn't lose out and factors it into the item cost, which doesn't make sense either.

Re: Need Help with Magazine Refund

It's not worth the hassle; I take it from the mailbox to recycling bin. Will never order anything else that comes with some stupid magazine.
