Billing for Good Housekeeping magazine already pd for.
Complaint

Country: United States
Acct # 0250030152. I am receiving invoice statements for the good housekeeeping magazine stating my subscriptions expires Feb 2017 when on the label of the magazine it shows March 2018. Plus the price is double of where I can get this magazine if I still want it. Your pay good housekeeping is a scam attempt to fleece your subscribers as I have seen on the complaints board. I want to keep my already paid for subscription that is good until March of 2018. Then I will decide if I wish to renew but will NEVER go through paygoodhouskeeping again. What a SCAM! A big money grabbing company like Hearst should be ashamed of itself and apologize to all subscribers. Hearst needs to be reported to the proper authorities. I have been a good housekeeping subscriber for many many years but is this is the way business is now done, I may have to be done with Good Housekeeping mag.

There have been cases where sleazy third party marketers attempted to "steal" customers who had already subscribed through the publisher. In one case in Arizona, they actually got hold of part of the publisher's customer list, and were acting like they were billing for "renewals". In other cases, companies have sent out bills as if it was a "renewal", just guessing and sending out bills for common consumer magazines. One tip off is that the alleged expiration date doesn't match the publishers.
