Did anyone get a Prevention magazine book?

LOL - nope, I didn't open it, once I saw the return address I knew it wasn't something I ordered 'intentionally'. I did receive one of their magazines about a month ago and returned that marked cancel or refused. All I can think of is that I marked one of the prevention offers with a YES and then changed to NO - it may have said something about a trial subscription? I just can't remember. Anyway, thanks for the info and saving me the phone call to get the return lable. (I can be soooo lazy-lol!) Oh, I just thought of another...last week I received 2 containers of Simulac....hmmm...my mailman must be wondering if there's a baby in my future? Rumors could fly - our mailman is my b-i-l's cousin-hee hee!!

Same here! I guess I had signed up for a subscription without realizing it also. I had actually sent an e-mail to cancel which they did without any problems. I guess they never updated the cancellation list since we are all getting this book. I almost got rid of it and didn't read I was going to get billed later on! Does anyone have the number ??? My book didn't come with a number just an address.

Got the same book yesterday, so it's definitely from an offer on SR as I've never visited the Disboards. I also received a seperate invoice. I haven't bothered to open it. I will and if there is a number listed, I'll post it!

Ack, I didn't keep the number!

What I did is google Prevention magazine. I called their number, explained the situation, and she gave me the number for their book department. Then I called that number, explained, and they were more than happy to email me the shipping label. It was a little time consuming, but everyone was nice.

THANKS! I will try that on Wed. I am sure most places are closed by now.

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:cool dance:

Somehow I got signed up for Prevention magazine again. Got a confirmation email that I ordered it. This makes me so mad. I am very careful when doing offers and always go back over them before hitting submit or skip to make sure no yes boxes are checked. I know that it had to come from SR because it comes in a name that I only use on here. I called to cancel but this is frustrating. Looks like we should be able to do something about them signing us up when we actually have not signed up for their magazine at all. I guess whether we check yes or no they are still going to sign us up anyhow. What happens if I start getting signed up for other stuff that I haven't ordered. Hopefully this will be the only thing but who knows. Guess I will just have to wait and see. Just venting I guess.

I've not received the book -- yet -- but I got an invoice yesterday for my "subscription" to Prevention magazine. That will be going out today with "Cancel" on it.

I got my bill today for the prevention book/dvd whatever. And of course it just says either send the money, OR write no thanks on the invoice and send the stuff back. But they don't tell you how to send the book back. I am for sure not sending it back at my own expense. I never asked for it. I have had it with Prevention!

It took me FOREVER to talk to someone about this at RODALE. I sent e-mails with no replies. Finally I called the order line and got a real person. I am sure they are being bombarded with us because she knew exactly what I was talking about and said she would send me a return label.

I got my invoice today and that book is something like $58!!!!!! I will be sending mine back as well.
