Agreed and my line of attack really It's not even like it's hard to write that kind of thing into a sales site... You merely set up stock levels and once it reaches 0 it can be written to automatically be removed from the page... Lazy so and so's

I think asked them before and the reason given was that they are taking subscription orders not just from the internet but also from mails. Don't think this is a good reason though.

Is everyone going to cancel? What is the mag like, is there alot of freebies or money off vouchers with it? Wondered if it was worth having for 75p a mag.
I am annoyed too, as the perfume was the only reason I went for it.

Everyone should cancel obviously. That's consumer revenge.

PS I dont seem to be getting any gifts anymore!

I too ordered the mag on March 1st and paid £9.90 by debit card,got an email to say thanks for subs 1st issue will be sent on or around 13th April.E-mailed them on 10th March to ask where my 'gift' was ,to be told it was enroute and to wait up to 28 working days for delivery!! I have today received a letter saying the gift is no longer available.I thought it was enroute!!and due to an enormous response,the limited stocks were exhausted before we received your order.They have offered to extend my subs for two extra issues as a gesture of goodwill.I have emailed them to ask for my £9.90 back.

I subscribed on the 22nd of February and when I received the first issue nearly 3 weeks ago I emailed to find out about the free gift as there were rumblings on here about it being oversubscribed. I received the same email, saying it was enroute. As I type this I still don't have my perfume and it is sounding less and less likely that I will get it.

I shall be looking for all of my money back despite receiving one issue as I am really annoyed about this especially as I was an early subscriber!

Called Customer services and just been told it's oversubscribed and I didn't qualify - not very helpful. No alternative offered so I have emailed and asked for an alternative gift or a refund of my subscription money. Guess I'm now awaiting a reply.

My daughter has just told me that she hasnt had the £4.80 through Quidco for a golfing mag as she didnt tick the new subscriber box but as a repeat subscription (as it was really). She'll know better next time:p
