    If you look back to page 1 of this thread, it seems already established that this is most likely a different company.

    Some insects called the human race,

  • I emailed them a week ago. I subscribed at the beginning of july and hadn't heard anything from them.. I got a slightly different email.

    Hi Carrie,

    The magazines are at print this week. We will be receiving our copies on Monday, 5th September and shall dispatch them to you then.

    Issue 3 will be the first of your 12 copies and you will receive the magazine monthly thereafter.

    Hope that you enjoy the magazine!

    Kind Regards,

    Joanne

    I guess we just carry on waiting.

    Thanks
    Carrie :)

    This thread is so mad, they have been saying early September for ages, if you go back to post 61 there is an email that says it will arrive about the 8th September.

    It's fairly obvious that once news got out on this site, everything went mad for Zing and they've had to cope with a lot more demand.

    I reckon we'll get the mags within a week and everyone will make their £9 back easy.
  • Hi Moneymaker, I think there has been a wee misunderstanding on your part if you check the following link zing appear to be still in business...
