I emailed Red magazine about the free gift yesterday and just received a reply saying it is enroute but to allow 28 days for delivery :j

I was wondering this as well - quidco.com states "for new subscriber" - does that apply to each magazine or are they classing a subscription through Magazine Group etc as a new subscriber? If the former, there are a number of offers on 3 for £1.

So far only 1 has been credited but if the others don't then I will be enquiring as like you say it isn't too clear if ir's each magazine or not.

Got my Very irresistable from Glamour today, really pleased with it, thanks again to OP. Still waiting for my Elemis from Zest though even though they have taken the DD and I have received first copy. Also still waiting for Marie Claire to take the payment that should have been taken last weekend - anyone found either a Company or (working) Essentials offer yet? (not the original source one though)?

I subscribed to the Red magazine Decleor offer on 15th Feb, but have just received a letter from Hachette Filipacchi informing me that it was a limited offer and my order was received after the gift limit had been reached. I quote: 'I am sorry for any disappointment that this may cause, but trust that this will not detract from your enjoyment of the magazine.' Well if I don't get the gift I shall cancel my subscription so I won't be reading the magazine!

Am going to e-mail them - again! - as a few days ago I was told that I would be receiving the Decleor gift. Argh!

The elemis gift is from Maxim. My husbands arrived today. The magazine is rubbish so the gift makes up for it.

I rang red & marie claire today. Marie Claire confirmed that there had been a web error and a free gift should not have been offered,

I should imagine if you have a copy of the offer, you can contact the Advertising Standards Agency and complain about it (after all they did advertise the offer) ...... ??

That's when I subscribed too! Let us know how you get on. I'll email them too. Several days ago somebody posted that they had received the Eve Lom (?) cleanser...? Has everyone else got it too, cos I haven't and I really wanted to try it!

Hi,
Subscription ~~~~~~~~
I recently subscribe to RED with a free gift offer.
Thank you for confirming the direct debit arrangements
and the subscription. Could you also please confirm
that I will receive the free gift (Decleor gift set)
as there was no mention of this on my confirmation
email

Many thanks"
