Its a scam, seriously are they really going to fork out all that money? The same catalogue you received is the same catalogue they send to every mail box in the country. Its just a scam to boost their sales and get more people to buy their products and most people being so desperate will actually fall for the scam. Nothing in life can be that easy and there is no way you can win 25000 by buying the cheapest item in the book magnamail have to be idiots if they are paying out these amounts. . . It a scam dont buy anything from them - let their business suffer if they cant make sales in the right way and are willing to scam us then i say dont support them. . Let them go bankrupt!

I am unemployed and when the Magnamail mag came in the mail and I scratched the panels saying I won 25.000 dollars! made me feel on top of the world, it took so much of my shoulders, I ordered off one of their web sites www..magnamail.co.nz. then a day later I went to order again but my web page was locked, the 0800 # just rings until it drops out, I was devastated when I checked up on Magnamail, thus ending up on this page, those who have been jibbed by this company need to first lodge a complaint on this web site, we must stop these vermin who pray on the unfortunate and Elderly.

I got one in the local newspaper today saying i have won money and do a first order fill my details then they will send me my money.I thought it was legit because of the whole ABN number and registered business name so i thought i would look it up. I have come across so many pages saying its a scam and i am not glad i have read them. Lucky i didn't order anything,

Buyer beware! I ignored the 'prize' offer for what it obviously was - a sales promotion. I have bought items from Magnamail, but I am very selective with what I buy, as you get what you pay for, like many other catalogue mail-box drops. But they have one item I haven't seen anywhere else. It's a micro-wave jug with a funnel that prevents rice and pasta boiling over. I have two of them now, but my first one has been going for years and is used constantly. I also have their micro-wave heated hair rollers, which are a bit cheap and nasty, but do the job. It really surprises me that the people posting above don't accept this company for what it is.

I agree, how many more people will fall for this c---. I too received a letter stating I won a grand prize but then I had to order from the catalogue, they stated they would send the prize with the order. Well when it arrived I got a tin ring that you might get in a Xmas cracker. Then when I rang up to complain, they stated that if I read the catalogue it states you have won one of the prizes and that prize was the ring worth $00.00. when I tried to explain that the letter stated different to what he had said he then stated that they would not have sent a letter stating I had won a major prize. Well the penny had sunk in what a b-----
fool am I. So listen everyone don't get sucked in you know the saying once bitten twice shy. It wont happen again I will tell you . Some thing needs to be done with this company that s for sure.

Hi,
Have you actually contacted Magnamail's customer service team on freecall [protected]?
I'm not sure they search public forums for customer enquiries.

Very interesting that the person at the top of the screen is smart enough to be accepted into law school, but not smart enough to be able to read some terms and conditions and figure out using their own logic that thousands of these catalogues are sent out and only one of each of the major prizes is awarded. it's the same with anything, people only read and hear what they want to hear. if you call today tonight, fair go or any companies like these, they will tell you to read the terms and conditions. VERY INTERESTING comments on this page.

i just received a very fishy letter from magnamail. before I send anything im going to ring them and video / audio record every process. Even using tracking postage. That way I will be able to catch these b*****es. Send every thing to fair go and other television shows / Newspapers. That is if I dont recieve the 25, 000 dollar. I will be back soon to tell you all what happend

How scammy can this be!Cmon u guys at magnamail stop ripping people off out there!
