I wish there was a " -1" rating because that's what this would be!
I have been receiving countless emails Re: my Good House Keeping subscription. They, being Hearst, said my account would be 37.51 to renew my subscription to Good House Keeping for 1 year. 12 issues... so, I contact Hearst Magazines customer service knowing this was not the real subscription price as I've been a subscriber to many magazines for years including this one, I called and spoke to a young lady who confirmed that yes, its 37.51 for 12 issues 1 year of Good House Keeping magazine. So, my next comment being "that's insane" and then asked her "why is the price that high?". She said, after a pause "taxes". I asked to speak to her superior, and she then hung up on me.
I then call Good House Keeping directly and speak to a young gentleman from customer service who echo's the price from Hearst. 37.51. I ask him why the price is so high and I received a different answer."auto -renewal"! I asked a few more times with s similar answer " continuous service". I said I'm not signed up for auto renewal. I then told him point blank that they were scamming me and I would take to my computer and start filing reviews which I have to inform people that this is absurd and to be careful doing business with them as well as Hearst. He then said '" we can give you a better price"... 8.00. That actually is the real subscription price I can tell you that I've been paying for my Good House Keeping magazine subscription. I took it because I enjoy the magazine.
What I want to say to everyone is please ask questions. Ask for superior's. Check either the BBB or just Google simply for example:
"Good House Keeping magazine subscription reviews". You'll find your answers. Another tip. Don't auto renew ever with subscriptions because it gives them power to change prices and you a headache! Speak up you have a voice that should be heard!
Companies you think are reputable may not be. BBB is a phone call away and Googling gives you a lot of answers and resources too. Scammer's need to be reported!
Thank you.
