My renewal notice for MEW arrived this morning along with the useful
information that it is possible to check on your subs details online
here (if you know your subscriber number(s)):

www.subscription.co.uk/help/encanta

For those that have had their subs restored to normal duration as a
result of the recent fracas, the number shown on-line for the final
issue of your sub should be accurate - the one shown on my renewal
form was one issue short (but the online number was correct).

Curiously, renewing your subscription via the website costs £37.50
whereas doing it over the phone costs £32. Hmmm. Methinks someone
didn't do a cost analysis there...

Regards,
Tony

Well it's a relief that it says that they have no record of my email
address despite an exchange of emails over the ill fated plans
fiasco<G>

The web site shows my subscription expiring with issue 123. My subscription
renewal letter show it expiring with issue 124. I wonder if they considered
that many subscribers would keep their renewal letter for reference and the
implication of arbitrarily changing the expiry issue number. You have all
kept the letter haven't you?

I will probably leave it for now and see if they put it right before
complaining.

Tried to check my subs details and they have no record of me. I have my
renewal letter with a membership number on but that letter was Oct 2004. So
it might have not got on there computer yet. Interesting about the price re
online or phone as I do 2 or 3 years at a time.

I started my subscription for both ME and MEW around November 2006

The first issues arrived around the first week in February 2007, I ha
no problem with that as I can apreciate it takes a while to get setup.

What I find strange is if I now check out my subscription details i
says that ME has 10 issues to go and will end in February 2008 ( whic
is correct )
but that my MEW has only 2 issues to go so will end in November .
This cant be right as they started , and I received my first issues o
the same day.

Lastly can someone confirm that unless I renew my subscription it wil
automatically lapse as I dont want to pay these jokers any more

Don -

I believe they moved MEW to 12 issues/year (from 10) during the last
year, so that may explain the discrepancy in the dates.

Unless you have set up a direct debit to pay the subs annually, yes it
will lapse if you don't renew.

Tony

Don't forget that the number of annual issues of MEW has increased
over the past 2 years.
My wife usually buys me a subscription as a christmas present, and
this started off running Jan- December.

However, due to the increased number of issues this now expires at the
end of October. this year.
