Countrywide Periodicals — magazine subscription

A few months ago I was told that I would be subscribing to get a discount on popular magazines every month. For a flat rate. But today thursday January 26th, 2017 I recieved a letter from Interstate Recovery Service saying that I owe them $946.36!!! I immeadiately went to google to begin my research amd that's when I discovered that it was a fraud!!! Doesn't make sense to me that people do this for a living and think that it is okay to just take advantage of people for $!#&#* magazines. Excuse my language but I am extremely pissed!!!

    Countrywide Periodicals — son tried to cancel and was not allowed to now in collection

    My son who is 18 was called about subscription to 5 magazines. Of course he thought how cool because he was promised a ipad and never received this. He also only received 1 magazine out of 5. Being he is 18 he really did not understand the whole system of agreeing to this. His bank account was charged and when he saw the charge he did a stop payment as he never realized what the chage was for he thought someone got a hold of his acct. His dept card was changed for this reason. Move forward several months and he now has been contacted by collections. He has no problem paying for the magazines he received but it was only 1 type of magazine ESPN and only for 3 months. Never recieved any others as promised. The collection agency was requiring over 500 dollars from him as they said he agreed to 5 years of the magazine. My son being only 18 and having a disability really did not understand what he was getting into. My son currently is volunteering working at a boy scout camp for the entire summer and unable to deal with this. The collection agency has told him they will take him to court to get the money and now want over 1, 000. What 18 year old has this money he does not have a job and is doing a good deed by volunteering the entire summer at boy scout camp. He even has told the collection agency that he needs to deal with this when he is done volunteering but they said too bad we will take you to court.
    i am writing this on his behalf as he is not able to right now and does not have internet at the boy scout camp.
    How can this be resolved he would like to pay for the 1 type of magazine received he never received any other than ESPN.
    Please advise and he has asked that I speak on his behalf.

      Resolved       Countrywide periodicals — paid $50 and then they tried to get more

      They were suppose to deliver top magazines for $50 never got one magazine, then they started calling us and demanding more money, we called and cancelled by the time that was allowed us to do so, left a recorded message and they said they never received it, of course they would say that, only got 1 item from them in the mail, a paper with their name on it and like $400 more they wanted. They are a total rip off, please no one ever call them to order anything. we tell them when they call please take us to court but they never attempt anything cause they know they are nothing but committing fraud. Haven't heard anything from them in awhile after we told them we were getting our lawyer involved!! I don't think we will ever again either after that.

        On 5 July 2011 I had an unwanted transaction taken out of my account. The amount taken was $66.41. I did not agree to have this money taken out and i would like to have it back. I don't make enough money to just go throwing it anywhere. I have people to feed and a roof that needs to be paid for and gas so i can get to work and provide money to live. I did not agree to anyone takeing money out of my account and would like to have it back.

              I guess Im going to stay neutral, even though I too fell into their trap of recieving magazines that I won't ever read, but have them coming to me and they sit in my closet collecting dust. I tried getting getting out of it, but when I called them and told them that I didnt want the subscription they told me that it was to late because they already put my order in and that there was NO WAY to stop it, and im sorry but theres always a way to stop something. Im sorry that this happened to you and your husband, and I hope things work out for the better for you both.

              No he couldn't opt out. You have a F rating by comsumers report so we are not the only ones. Your sales asst. called 15 times in a row in one day while he was at work and not answering to him. Thats fine Our bank said this isnt the first time they have had trouble from your company. Listen to that recorded msg you have you will hear my husband saying he wanted to opt out. You didnt get our money so your scam was stopped on our behalf.

              Its not the company's fault. He was explained everything in detail. He was also told that a final call would be recored going over every detail of the order HE had placed. No one forced him to give out his card info. If he didn't agree with terms of the service (which were explained to him before he gave out his card number) then he should have said he wasn't interested. Its annoying to hear people complain about this and that when they themselves got into a situation they could have opted out of.

            Resolved             Countrywide Periodicals Inc./ Reader Service — scam / rude

            Just recieved a phone call from this business. They tried to sell me magazines at a discounted price - due to them pre ordering the magazines. I came to this website and noticed there were many magazine scams and attempted to cancel my order due to feeling uncomfortable about it. The man on the phone is named dennis bloodgood, his supervisor is doug.

            Good ol' dennis then made me aware that he'd already processed my order - he used this analogy - "you wouldn't call pizza hut and cancel your order"- my reply "if I wanted to, yes I would" him-"well you wouldn't wait till it was at your door to cancel it" me - "if I needed to I would, however your product is not at my door" he hung up on me. Then called me back claiming we got disconnected - I guess someone who suffers from that special kind of stupidity needed a minute to re-evaluate our chat.

            This is the actual # for those who recieved the same "unavailable" on their caller id - [protected]- they tell you the name is reader service but the actual name is countrywide periodicals inc., and they will also tell you that there is no way to cancel the order - yes they can... Doesn't really matter who you talk to - they are all idiots, but for fun ask for dennis - he frustrates easily. He will tell you that hes the only one there that hold a supervisory position-also not true...

            My order has been cancelled.

                I think the stupidity on your part was giving out your information with the intention of ordering something over the phone.. your stupidity was not hanging up on the first person you talked to.
