  • Am I the only one thats not bothered about getting the monthly freebies? I think the only free gifts that I like is nail varnish and chocolate bars and neither come up very often. I will be glad to avoid the usual collection of beach bags, flip flops and make up bags that always end up going to the charity shop!!

    if i subscribe to marie claire do i still get cover gifts delivered with my magazine when they issue them in the shops?

    When i took them up on this offer last year, i didn't get the freebies promised, i did however get an apology letter of sorts and they sent Body Shop stuff instead....and no you don't get the monthly gifts...

    I just noticed it's no longer £12 if you pay by credit card, the £12 offer is for direct debit only. 1 years subscribtion paid by credit card is now £21!

    Just got my confirmation, I don't get my first copy til April! Is everyone elses the same?
    Also, if anyone has done this before, will they just send out the Benefit goodies with this first magazine? Thanks!
  • I got the confirmation today too - same thing, first copy will be the beginning of April. No mention of the Benefit goodies at all, I'll be miffed if I don't get them. :(
  • me tooooooooo fingers crossed everyone - would be a nice turn seeing as they aren't mentioned now! Don't hold out much hope though, wish i took a screen shot of the offer now!!
  • I haven't had a confirmation yet, does it come in the post or by e-mail? They have taken payment from my credit card.
  • My confirmation came by email a few days ago, saying subscription to start around 8th April. I emailed them enquiring about the Benefit introductory gift, so will post on here if/ when I get a response :-)

    I did get a response to my email indicating that I would be receiving the Benefit gifts:

    We have checked our records and can confirm that your free gift will be ordered shortly. 28 working days should then be allowed for delivery.

    This was sent on 10th Feb and I subscribed on 8th Feb.
  • i never got that email and i subscribed on the 6th? sent an email off to them now, got an automated response saying they will reply within 48hours so will let you all know :)
