    I subscribed (and they took the money) on 27th June and I got an email from them on 5th July saying I would get my first issue at the beginning of August. If it is now the end of August, that will be 2 months since they took my money before I get an issue. That is a long time.

    I have also subscribed to Zing mag,I received e-mail like you to say that my issues would be delivered to me in early August.
    Do any of us know when it is going to arrive? :confused:

    I wrote and said that I was thinking of subscribing, but was concerned that the date of the next issue kept being put back. Here is the reply:

    Dear Daisy,

    Thank you for your email. The reason for combining the two issues is purely logistical and Zing is very much still in business. If you subscribe, you and your friend will both receive your first issue at the end of August (this is the July/August issue) and will receive 11 issues after that. Combining June and August does not reduce the amount of issues you will receive. Production schedules are in for the next 12 issues and Zing! is very much here to stay.

    Best wishes,

    Leandre

    What are we gonna do for vouchers????
    Jeeves

    Try the vouchers by mail thread, must be something on there that we have not applied for.

    In the meantime just stop shopping, just start eating up everything in the cupboard and freezer and only buy reduced/special offer/bogof items until the coupons start flowing again.

    I've noticed that we used to often get newspapers and magazines with coupons in, often 3 or 4 times a week someone would spot these but we have not had these for months on end!
