MagsOnTheNet

Like a lot of reviews here, I got burned using MagsontheNet.com via Yahoo! Shopping. I am a long-term Internet shopper and this is my first experience at being totally disgusted with my online shopping experience. I ordered two magazine renewals this ...

Yup, we all have to do something. Unfortunately, we too, did not read the reviews before ordering. Good prices are our weakness. We too, ordered a 3 year subscription to our favorite magazine. It was only 60$! However, only received 2 issues. Then, ...

I wish I'd read these reviews before using Mags on the Net. This was the singular most frustrating business experience I had ever gone through. 2/13/06 placed an order for People and US magazines, $126.90. 5/27/06 after 12 weeks filled out email ...

I have ordered a 3 year subscription for a magazine in June 2006... When I've received my first issue in July, the expiration date was for 2007 instead of 2009... After many phone calls and e-mails, I've noticed that the expiration date was changed to ...

After reading all the horror stories from other consumers who state that they have purchased magazine subscriptions through mags on the net and have not gotten what they have paid for, I suggest you do the following: Contact the NYS Attorney General's ...

I ordered a gift subscription 'Bucknuts mag' from MagsOn the Net/Yahoo store...Dec. 24, 2007 It is now 6 months and the recipient has not received it...Only contact point seems to be e-mail..which I have done now four times...No Response!!! I presume I have been scammed and have lost $42.95...for I have contacted the publisher and was informed they have never heard of MagsOn The Net Also that they only do business from their own website and use no third party. I will contact my cc...but am sure it will be in vain...I have definately learned to distrust everyone now..even tho. I have had good results with other honest business sites.

MagsOnTheNet is a fraud. Unfortunately, I didn't read these reviews before I was suckered into subscribing from this place. Like many others, I ordered a multi-year subscription and only received two of three years. Don't even try to contact them, they will absolutely not answer calls, emails, or snail mail. I tried many times to get a response but it's always the same--nada. I complained to the BBB, but their mail is returned from this place, also. So the BBB is unable to help.
Get the word out----don't do business with these unscrupulous vermin.

I lost about $80.00 to these SCAM ARTISTS.
PLEASE RUN if you receive any postal mail that has their name in the fine print. BEWARE!!
Also: see Better Business Bureau excerpt below:


Consumer complaints allege that “Mags on the Net” does not deliver its magazines within 12 weeks as stated on its website. Consumers stated that after ordering subscriptions off the internet, they were given a confirmation number for their order but have yet to receive their items. After contacting the company numerous times, they were given a message to respond via email. Consumers claim that they get no results whether by phone or email from them. Consumers also stated that their credit cards were still charged for magazines which were not delivered to them. Though the company has resolved most of its complaints, it has failed to address the underlined cause for them. Consumers whom the company has not responded to would like their money back.

Customer Experience

Based on BBB files, this business has an unsatisfactory record with the Bureau, because there is a pattern of complaints, and the business has not corrected the underlying reason for the complaints.

I ordered 3 years of Consumer Reports through this company. Three months later I got my first issue, however the label only showed 1 year. After emailing their customer service 3 times with no response, I called them and they said it'll take 30 more days for the other two years to show up. I've waited not nearly 6 months and still the label says 1 year. Now when you call the number you get voice mail saying to go to their website and send an email. But they won't answer that either. I turned them over to the BBB. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY!!!
