Reliable magazine discounter
January 11, 2024

Good discounts on subscriptions, reliable customer service. Advance notices on end days of a subscription allow ample time to renew without interrupting service.

It wasn't clear that books are treated differently than magazines. I'd never shopped with you before so that's OK.
I'm glad you're out there doing your thing.

The website is easy to use but has issues. There is now way to see the billing history for previous renewals and costs.

Discount Magazine
November 30, 2023

Best Deals around! They also reinstated my auto renewal to Consumer Reports after seeing my review that I accidently deleted my auto renewal and they reached out to me offering to re-instate me. Wow, someone really reads these reviews, thank you!

Wait is way too long
December 20, 2023

I ordered my magazine over 2 months ago and it is still processing. I feel like the discount just isn't worth that long of a wait. Yet my email gets flooded with offers every day. Why would I purchase anything else when the wait for the one is taking so long? I wont be purchasing anything else from them and will delete my account once my subscription is over

This subscription was a gift to my grandson. As of today, November 21 2023, he has not received a single issue of this subscription. At this point, the Better Business Bureau and my local District Attorney are looking like my Avenue to either receive a refund, or to ensure that my grandson receives ALL issues that I have subscribed to.

I was hoping for a better deal as this 3-year subscription was only slightly better than renewing directly with the magazine.

Discount Mags is definitely the best Magazine subscription service available today. Their prices are very reasonable and the customer service is excellent. They treat all their customers like family. They work very hard to keep all their subscription holders happy. They are absolutely the best.

Scammer
October 20, 2022

I ordered subscription of magazine and the only thing I received was tons of spam. Customer service does nothing with that for weeks. They warn you that response can take up to 10 days, but even after that there is totally no update. I feel they have stolen my money and don't care now

Don't do it
June 28, 2022

You will have to wait a very long time to get your first issue, they claim they have no control over when the publisher sends out the magazines. Fine, but they provide no support if you call or even if you fill out their online form, they are just an intermediary. It's not worth the aggravation, just pay a few more bucks and there's no waiting and you'll get people who care and want to help.

Have ordered many magazines from Discountmags.com over several years. I continue to use it because of the several thousand magazines offered, the prices are almost (but not always) the lowest and most important, I can rely on them to always deliver a first issue within 7-8 weeks. In the rare cases where there are delays they reply to my inquiry fast and follow up with a date certain. Their website allows me to see all my active subscriptions and when they are due for renewal. Email notice of renewal comes at least two weeks before the end so I have plenty of time to make a decision. An important feature is setting a "Discount Lock" at first subscription or renewal, so Discountmags agrees to renew for me at the current price even if the publisher increases the price. There is no charge for this, and it does not commit me to renew. I get notified at renewal and can renew or not. On the website I can see all subscriptions for which I have set a Discount Lock and can cancel it at any time.

Order placed in Dec, it is now the middle of March, silence…
$19.95 gone, no reply no notification, no communication. Don't be another victim of this business!
