You mean subscribing.  Not joining the website.

hi vinnie

yes i subscribed for 12 months for the magazines and was offered a free kit!!

cheers ian

[Vinnie BraniganParticipant @vinniebranigan92297]

Sounds good to me. Why not contact the subscription department and ask them about it? I’m almost sure they won’t read this.   Perhaps they want me to supply them?

Hi Vinnie

Yeah, i’ll try again, i’ve have done several times now, once more won’t  hurt. Wasn’t sure if you were all linked together.

thanks again

I understand from Chris Webb of the subs deparrtment, that as of yesterday 31/10/07, they have arrived and should be dispatched to be with those waiting subscribers in the next week or so.

[Ian PrudhoeParticipant @ianprudhoe51849]

Thanks

Yip

i’m not holding out much hope either, i think it was one of those cons to get you to subscribe to the magazine with no intentions of any free gifts

[Paul FreshneyParticipant @paulfreshney24971]

On the contents page of the Kit Special are the details of the subscriptions department. I suggest you email directly or telephone the contact listed there (Chris Webb), with your subscription details (and copy in customer services) with your complaint.

[Ian PrudhoeParticipant @ianprudhoe51849]

have done Paul,

but theres only a certain number of e-mails you can send before you loose faith. I’ve tried all avenues with no success.

[Paul FreshneyParticipant @paulfreshney24971]

Ian/
I cannot email you directly because your details are withheld on the forum. If you email me the key details – i.e name/address/subscription number/when renewed. I will see what I can do. My email address is at the front of MB.

[Ian PrudhoeParticipant @ianprudhoe51849]

thanks paul

when i get home from work this evening, i will send my details as my subscription number is at home.

thanks for your support

Hi Ian,

I’ve just spoken to Chris, and apparently all the tool kits were sent out 2nd class recorded a week and a half ago so everybody should have received their’s by now. If anyone hasn’t got it yet please email Chris at [email protected]

Ta!

Vinnie

[Ian PrudhoeParticipant @ianprudhoe51849]

Hi Vinnie

Hi Paul

Why the big question mark?? do you want a free gift for xmas

Hope your feeling better.

Regards

Sam

[Paul TParticipant @pault84577]

Hello Sam

I was going to write a jovial piece about getting a gift for resubscribing and having a playful and friendly swipe at Paul and Vinnie during what seems to be an open season for the editors, but then I thought again and removed what I had written.

When Paul took over the editors job he wanted to expand the content to include new items and by god he has done, this must have been a huge job to improve on an already great publication. The december issue is very very good and I for one am very pleased with what I pay in subscription I THINK IT IS EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY and I dont see the point in bleating on about cheap free gifts, life is to short..

And Vinnie is doing a stirling job sorting out this site and putting up with all the moaning and complaints, Come on guys this site is free and Vinnine lets us say what we want. Where else could I or Sam or Kenny or any of us chat to each other about nothing in particular.

like I said life is to short.

Your annoying me now Paul,

Quote: ‘The December issue is very good’ – been looking in Smiths for the last couple of weeks and still no sign of it ! – I know you get yours on prescription! – but didn’t realised you got it that far ahead – would get a prescription myself, ‘cept I don’t need another airbrush (already have 2), waiting for a decent freebie (either a boat kit, band saw or lathe would be nice) to come along then I’ll sign up.

Cheers – Ken

ps – sorry about that, slipped my list to Santa in there

[Paul TParticipant @pault84577]

Hi Ken

Yes mine is on perscription and I actually got it on Thursday, delivered in a fully waterproof plastic bag but just like you walking all the way to Smiths I had to walk from my chair to the front door so there was some effort involved.

I fancy a decent lathe now that would be a good freebie…hint..hint..Paul

I dont fancy santas chances of getting a band saw down your flue though.

How is the golden slipping down tonight?

Paul
