National magazines publishes all those mags on the website https://www.subscriptions.co.uk.
IPC only do a few... like Instyle Practical Parenting and magazines found on https://www.ipcrenewals.co.uk.

Basically national mags do the majority

Thanks for the link to that Yvonne, it seems to be a really good bargain!

I usually buy PCGamer for £5.99 a month but with that offer, it will only cost me a £1 per issue

I only hope its easy to cancel once the 3 months is up ....

I just posted an offer from Harper's Bazaar on the offers section. I notice that the last offers from them stated a 12 month contract. Does anyone know if this has been standard for some time? The reason being that I have 2 subs with them! I've cancelled the DD in both cases and lost count of the number of issues sent... I really wanted to try the Eve Lom cleanser, as did my mum. Does anyone know the terms for this offer? It was posted here.

I rang to find out where my Kenneth Cole gift was and was told that I'd been allocated a loreal gift and that it is rare for an internet order to be given any gift at all!!! :mad:

Sent them an e-mail on Friday including a link to the web offer page I signed up on and telling them i had a screen print of it. Received a reply today saying I'll get it in the next 28 days BUT when I looked at the link just now it has changed to a loreal offer!!!! Hmmmm. Very odd indeed!!

I sent them a very snarky email (it was much more firm when I reread it to what I thought i'd sent lol) saying that it was quite odd that a number of us had made this "error", some might say even suspicious and that if ti became apparent it was misleading advertising rather than a web error I would be obliged to contact trading standards. got an email back saying they wrre looking into it and one a few days ago saying it was a website offer but they are ordeing the gift (yeah right...). they are being very cheeky or very stupid......

I subscribed for the Molton Brown gift set but didn't nottice if it said 12 months contract (don't think it did!) but I didn't receive my gift so emailed them and they replied saying that they had no more Eve Lom cleanser (which I didn't want) but could choose from a couple of others, one being the MB Gift set which has just arrived and it is soooooo nice.

I didnt get my Molton brown set and no more left - said it had been sent to me !!! so he asked if I wanted to received 6 free issues or choose a gift from another mag. Or if I noticed a gift I wanted in one of their mags in the next few months he would put a note on my records and I could just ring up and order it.

I finally went for the Dove gift set (no idea what is in it ) and 3 months extra FREE Harpers. He was really nice and helpful. I didnt want to wait for a gift as this mag is expensive and I wouldnt normally buy it. I have in total paid £6.47 for a Dove gift set and 6 issues of harpers so Im pleased with this. (would have prefered Molton brown but somethings better than nothing.

Is this the 2 Molton Brown items with Harpers? I had the first Harpers mag today no gift though...
