HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com lifetime membership

Well well well, i see hundreds of complaints on the web about your company, so i don't feel alone. However hadyman club of america should be ashamed of themselves about te way they conduct or not conducg business. You take peoples money for a lifetime membership, you ship them a few things, send them a few letters and then disappear. I never participated in a trail offer as you stated i would and i don't think you have most of your subscribers participating. Bad bad bad business

I am in the same boat. I finally got a call thru and talked to a kid that sounded 15 yrs old. He told me rather rudely that they no longer print mags or send products. They are online now. I asked what about the 300 dollars I spent to join LIFETIME, and he said I can still get deals and specials, but they don't send products anymore. The reason I joined was I didn't have internet access. So much for LIFETIME mags and products. I agree this is a total ripoff. I am thinking of legal action to get some of my LIFETIME money back.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com not receiving life membership materials.

Handyman stopped sending me magazines and other materials a couple of years ago. The 800 number is a non working number and this is the only sight I am able to gain any access in relation to Handyman. What happened to my magazines? My opportunities to enter contests? Most importantly - the product companies aren't getting any contact with me that they are paying for.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com havent received magazine for over 2 years

I have been a lifetime member since 1996. My lifetime membership included receiving monthly magazines and products to test. For the last 2 years, I have yet to receive bi-monthly magazines and products.

What did I pay for? Lifetime means lifetime. Get the runaround from Company. Disconnected 800 numbers, no response from company etc.

What does a member (LIFETIME) HAVE TO DO TO GET THIS COMPANY TO HONOR THERE WORD. THEY TOOK MY MONEY DIDNT THEY? BUT JUST DECEIVED TO STOP. WE MEMBERS SHOULD FILE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT TO REFUND MONEY AND ALSO TO PROVIDE FOR PAIN AND SUFFERING TO HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DEAL WITH THIS.

ANYONE ELSE IN? LETS DO THIS

I like many other complaints paid for a lifetime membership and have not received my magazine since 2014. I paid for the membership to receive the magazine and test products, but feel I have been ripped off. I agree there should be a class action filed against them . I will be contacting my State Attorney General about this company.

I too got taken by this company. Was a lifetime member for many years, and then the magazines and everything just stopped and I can't even find how to get in contact with them. You're right, they didn't mind taking our money, and apparently when they had enough, they just closed up shop and breached their contract with all of us. If anyone finds out anything about this, please let us all know.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com magazines and regular information

I am a lifetime member of handyman club, but have not gotten the magazine regularly for over a couple of years. I contacted the office over a year ago got one copy of the magazine and nothing since. I did get a "trial" Feb.2016 copy that wanted me to join. My membership # is [protected]. I moved from my old address last year so I have a new address now. That address is 1103 Rainbow Rdg; Bumpass, VA23034. The phone nos. listed to contact you do not work! Since you are still trying to get new members, I have to assume that you are still in business. I would like to keep my membership, but if this is how you operate I would like a refund of my lifetime membership dues.

I have been a"Lifetime" customer since April 2009. I have not gotten a magazine in over 2 1/2 years. And as far as being picked for a product trial I have had 1 in 7 years or in
84 months. Oh sure they give you this big schpeel on getting a router, chisels, tape measure. They certainly took my money, when I made a payment of $289.00. After that I tried calling them, and they asked me which magazine I was receiving I but no longer do was from the Handyman Club. I was told that's because they were from Handyman club and I could only receive the Handy magazine, well why in the hell did I receive Handyman if I was only to get Handy magazine. Take the money and run.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com honoring the lifetime membership that I paid for.

When I started my membership with Handyman it was for a twelve or twenty four month membership, then they offered a lifetime membership with monthly magazines and opportunities to try out new tools that was on the market to see if I liked them and if I did I got them at membership cost . I kept some and sent some back and I continued to get my monthly magazines, and offers to purchase the Hunting Magazine and the Fishing Magazines, which I declined and I sent the tools that they were sending me to try back to them .The last magazine that I RECEIVED was the fall of 2014, I have not received any mailers, or any type of correspondence from them in the last eighteen month's .I'm requesting that I be compensated for the eighteen months that I did not receive my Magazine and a refund on my Lifetime membership .

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com I am supposed to be a lifetime member of handyman club of america

I joined the Handyman Club of America when it first started many years ago, then came The Fisher Mans Club of America. I am a lifetime member of The Handyman Club of America I even received a (leather) Jacket after my 3rd year as a life member and spending lots of money with them. I received the Bi-Monthly magazine for years I still have them. Then all of a sudden they joined up with Scout and soon my Free Magazines (Well not Free) stopped and I started getting all kinds of spam And Junk e-mails. I guess that is Scouts part collecting and selling account information. I then received an e-mail telling me that I could purchase the Magazine (now monthly) at a reduced price.
I would like to know what a lifetime membership is to The Owners And Publishers means to them. I take it to mean my lifetime, to them it must have meant there dog or cats lifetime.
Now I think if the company wants to Make Things Right They should hold up their end Just as I did to become a Life Member. They need to go back and give me all of the magazines as promised make sure that they find stores that will discount tools and lumber and other services that where offered to get people to join your club. I am very surprised that a class action law suite hasn't crossed peoples mind.

I never realized just how many had problems with this company. My husband 'signed on' to be a life member back in the late '90's. I did have to send a letter even back then to see why he wasn't getting the magazine. Life went on & we forgot about it. We retired from MA to MN in 2011. Unpacking a box the other day, I found the belt buckle 1996 Handyman Club of America LIFE MEMBER. That is the only thing I still have that shows he is a member. I'm sure they have made a few bucks off from all of us. If there is a class action against them we'd like to be included.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com life membership

I, like many others, have paid for a life membership which includes magazines which fail to arrive. This club has my address and my email but has never contacted me. Evidently, since I don't buy things from them, they make the assumption that I have passed away. I contacted them once regarding this and they began sending magazines. They said they sent a postcard but didn't get a reply. I never received a postcard or would have replied. In all the years I've received mail I don't believe any of it has been lost. This outfit ought to be investigated!

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com failure to provide services

I signed up as a lifetime member many years ago. For several years I received their magazines and requests to purchase their books. Since I have not ordered their books for several years now, they have stopped even sending me the agreed upon magazines. I guess it is time for all current and former lifetime members to get a class action suit against this company for failure to render agreed upon services. My Lifetime membership number is [protected]. I have tried several times to contact this company, but each time I receive either a busy signal or a this number is no longer in service. I have tried to send emails requesting information from this company, but have not heard anything from them. This process has been going on for over a year now, and I would like an answer from the parent company as to whether they are going to honor the agreement that was entered into upon signing up as a lifetime member, or do we need to get attorneys involved. If you are a member or former member of Handy Man Clubs of America, and might be interested in pursuing this matter further, please respond via this site.

I totally agree. I am also a Lifetime member and the primary reason was to receive the magazine. I didn't pay a couple hundred dollars for access to their website. We can all get any of that info for free. We would need to find a lawyer who would take the case based on a winning outcome or we would just be throwing good money after bad. Very disappointing.

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com unethical behavior

I have been a member of Handyman for at least 20 years and they have stopped delivery of their magazine. The magazine is part of the lifetime agreement. The last issue I received was fall of 2014. I can not get a hold of them for a explanation. My membership number is:[protected] My resolve would be to continue delivery of their magazine or return my Membership fees 300 dollars

The phone # I was given for the"Handy man club" has been changed or disconnected, I also have been a Life Member, for several years. And I also stopped getting their magazines months ago. I do get quite a few mags. So it slipped by me for a while. I also wonder just what happened? Ever since this so called :Scout: got into the picture, everything has gone to POT. Why has anyone been getting their mags, or anything else, or did we all get Ripped.If any won has any info, I sure would like to hear from you. lonstrixie@yahoo.com, Thank you L.C.

I have been a lift time member of about 8 years. I don't receive any thing from Handyman, magazines, no information about tools or wood working.

I would like to know what is going on?

HandyMan Club of America / Scout.com missing magazines from my life time membership.

I am not getting any magazines from HMCofA for several months. I've got an 800 number that doesn't work. I haven't got a mailing address, what can I do, without contacting a lawyer. Is the club still in operation, or should I consider my membership a loss like most of my retirement assets. I also belong to the history channel club with the same problem as stated above. What is going on? You are as bad as all of the above. Have a nice day and God bless you.

I'm a lifetime member and have been for years. This year I suddenly stopped receiving my mags. and have been unable to contact them after trying numerous methods. Just may try and rally some " stiffed " members and ask the Consumer Frauds bureau and State Attny. General to file a class action against them.
