Hearst Corporation G.L Valk, Vice President Hearst Magazine Scam, Payment Past Due Harlan, Iowa

23rd of May, 2011 by User184862

I received a letter in the mail today from Hearst Magazines, a unit of the Hearst Corporation that stated..."When you ordered your subscription with the convenience of being billed later, we fully believed you would send payment upon receipt of your invoice." I never authorized a bill me later subscription. This is for House Beautiful Magazine. I paid $19.97 in full for a year subscription on 3-8-10. One year later they are saying I authorized another year and I am behind on payment. There is no phone#, or email address on the letter or statement. The past due notice has "Sincerely" G.L. Valk, Vice President "P.S. to pay online go to pay.housebeautiful.com" The letter is signed "Sincerely" B. Jichtel, Subscription Services I never received an invoice to renew and after this, I am not planning on it now.

Same thing with our family concerning another magazine. Newspaper and magazine companies blame their dying businesses on technology..which is some of the downfall. However, it's lack of great customer service and good old SCAMS that will bring HEARST company down. Shame! Shame!
