Cheap magazine deals...are they worth it?

Hi all,

Ive come across online lots of uy 3 issues for £1, 3 issues for £3 deals on well known magazines. You take out the subscription but cancel it.

Has anyone encounted any problems getting charged when cancelling the suscription before getting charged the full wack? I only want the offer as its cheap and will help me have fun goodies cheaply whilst trying to get debt free!

  • I've done 20+ of those trials and never had a problem. Usually on the letter they send when you first subscribe, they give a date when your second (full price) payment will be taken. So long as you cancel the DD a good few days before the date given you will be fine. Very easy to do if you have Internet Banking.
