Subs number

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Hello Anybody

My access to digital mags and archive seems to have ended?

My digital subs were renewed on Nov 5th……..Via my I Pad

I normally view the mags on I Pad and Desktop PC

The renewal receipt does not show the new subs number

Have written to the Mag head office, but no reply yet

Any comments please?

Bob

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Where is it?

[Dave MilbournParticipant @davemilbourn48782]

Subscriptions are dealt with by a third party company. E-Mail is [email protected] or Tel 0844 243 9023

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Thanks Dave

I`m sure I`ve got the correct address

The staff probably don`t work weekends

I`m only after the sub number

Bob

[Colin BishopModerator @colinbishop34627]

No the staff won't work at weekends (like I do!)

Bob, I have sent you a PM with the sub number currently recorded against you but of course it may be the old one. It still may be worth mentioning this in your email to the Subscription Company.

Colin

[Dodgy Geezer 1Participant @dodgygeezer1]

…and there was I thinking this was a question about identification markings on an SSB…..

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Thank you, Colin

I have mentioned the subs numbers in my message

Bob

[Paul TParticipant @pault84577]

No the staff won't work at weekends (like I do!)

And here I am thinking that you get more time off than Father Christmas.

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Like I do?…….Sounds extremely ambiguous?

Please clarify

Bob

[Paul TParticipant @pault84577]

Read Colin's post from 10:17 (5 spaces above this one) and all will become clear.

Paul

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

As clear as mud, Paul

Question……Is Colin working this weekend?

Bob

[Colin BishopModerator @colinbishop34627]

I'm here Bob, whether you class it as working is up to you!

[Andy CParticipant @andyc56856]

Bob, did you get your copy of MB this week. If so the number will on the plastic envelope thing it came in. If not, well, maybe it has not gone through yet and an email is next.

Cheers

Andy

Andy

There's no wrapper on the digital version!

There must be a new number in the system, somewhere?

Bob

[Paul TParticipant @pault84577]

After Colin's comment about working at weekend I decided to pull his leg by saying he had more time off than Father Christmas who, as we all know, only works for one day each year.

A simple joke intended to make our hard working website editor smile at the ironic commentary.

Paul.

Irony: the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

[Colin BishopModerator @colinbishop34627]

Worked perfectly Paul, I broke three ribs…..

Colin

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

I thought Irony meant something made of metal?

That was a Christmas joke

Bob

[Andy CParticipant @andyc56856]

Isn't that you do to take creases out of your best slacks

Andy

I am sure the team will get you back on line come Monday..

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Hey! Doc!……These are the jokes folks!

That one, was a cracker!

Bob

[Kimosubby ShipyardsParticipant @kimosubbyshipyards]

Oh dear, should I be here? ……………… ok ……..here goes

Bob, its me, Kim, that's Kimmo and not the new Kim that what wants Titanic stuff!

Read this bit slowly please – your subs number is sent to you each time you pay for your digital subscription on-line by a return email, which says thank you for payment, please quote this number ………………… in all coms with us. So like all good email users you will have kept that email as proof of payment, won't you? So you can read the number and send it in.

Now here's a thing, you keep the same number each year, so like me, you'll have several emails over the years with the subs number on/in it, won't you?

Aye, Kimmo (or Kim) (or whatever) (mud-stirrer probably)

[Bob Abell 2Participant @bobabell2]

Hello Kimmo

I`ve got three subs numbers, but none of them work

This is how I see it now…….

The IPad receipt must be for Pocketmags only…….ie No subs number

The Modelboats version must have lapsed and not auto renewed, due to the bank scrambling my card number

The Pocketmags version has a problem……….Not fully downloaded yet!

See?……That was easy enough?

Merry Christmas Kimmo and regards to the Missus

My Mistletoe is growing nicely now and another one has popped through the bark after 5 years germination!

Bob

[Kimosubby ShipyardsParticipant @kimosubbyshipyards]

Thanks Bob, and a very Merry Christmas to you and yours as well, we're both well. We've been unable to tend the plot due to the excessive rains, but crops are still there – ready washed.

I must try some mistletoe on the plot, neighbour has apple and plums trees I'm sure could be used.

We're off doing our santa bit for the great grandson tomorrow, back Monday if the weather permits – next week looks very windy again.

We're both at the London MEX in January, Alexandria Palace, sounds awfully posh, better clean me boots and comb what hair I've left to look smart.

Hope to meet up again in 2016, look after number 1, aye, Kim.
