Paying for Magazine Subscriptions on a Bill Me Later basis

If you have received an invoice from any company other than the one demanding payment for your subscription, this is not from the discount magazine subscription service you used and it is not because of the order you placed with them. What generally has happened in this case is that you or someone else also ordered the same magazine directly from the publisher or another subscription agent who has a "pay me later" service. it is also possible that you may have received a notice to pay for a magazine you didn't order to a 3rd party scam type company.

When a new order is entered into the publisher's database, some publishers will send out a new subscriber solicitation in the form of an "invoice". If you read the fine print, you will find that the "invoice" you have received from the publisher is simply a new subscriber solicitation and there is no balance due. If this is not the case, as stated above, it may be an invoice from an order you placed from another subscription agent or the publisher prior to ordering through the service you use.

All orders placed through subscription agencies are generally submitted to the publisher fully paid and there is never a balance due which requires a publisher to send an invoice to the subscriber. If you receive an actual invoice, please contact the publisher and explain to them that you ordered through a subscription agent and paid in advance. Also, if it has been less than eight (8) weeks since your order, any magazines you have received are, most likely, not a result of your order through a cheaper subscription service and may be the result of having ordered your subscription from another source.
