Anyone else getting magazines they did not order?

I got the bill from Birds and Bloom but have not received a magazine. I got a copy of the magazine, Remedy, but no bill -- yet.

I haven't actually gotten the magazine yet but I did get the bills for the Birds and Blooms and the Prevention Magazines in the mail...I just ripped them up and threw them away, I'm not wasting a stamp to mail it back because I never ordered them and if they never get paid, they will stop sending the magazine!

Just a warning - a few years ago I did the same thing for some golf magazine that I never ordered. I didn't "cancel" it and threw away the magazine and the bill figuring if I didn't pay that they would just stop sending. However, they continued to send the magazine and then decided to send it to a collection agency instead! I did eventually get it all straightened out, but it was kind of a pain.

I will wait until I actually get the magazine, then use their 800# to cancel it...thanks for the heads up. I have never had a problem with ignoring them though, guess there is always a first time?

I got a couple of glamour magazines out of the blue and got a Rachel Ray and Reader's Digest a while ago. I think they might be from all those offers that you have to choose at least one offer to move onto the next page. I probably picked a trail Glamour magazine offer once.

I just call the 800 number and tell them I am not interested. Seems to work.

So far I've gotten Birds and Blooms, Better Homes & Gardens, Family Fun, Disney Adventures, Golf and a cooking one (I don't remember the name). I just send back the invoice with cancel on it. Sometimes I have to do it more than once though.

I had this problem a few months ago with Rachel Ray. It seems that every now and then we get an offer that auto signs us up for them. I haven't figured out yet which ones they are. I just called the number in the magazine and they cancelled and told me not to worry about it. I wouldn't even waste a stamp because when I did that with a different magazine I still had to call because supposedly they never got the invoice marked cancel. HTH!

You could always try writing CANCEL -- DID NOT ORDER -- RETURN TO SENDER on the magazine and/or invoice and mail it back to them that way. I've done that before with mags I never ordered.
