I got my confirmation right away. check the email address that you entered was correct.

It was correct...????

I still haven't gotten my confirmation either and it's been almost a week :( I already told him which mags he is supposed to be getting. I hope it works!!

I went to the posted sites but it said "under construction" to try back in a few days. The original post was 10/2003. Maybe it no longer applies?

I am currently waiting for approval too.. for the Magazine Bin offer

I got:

People Weekly
The Source
Spin
Esquire
Hapers Bazaar (good for day dreaming!!!!)..

IT seems a few of us are waiting....hmmmmm

www.magazine-bin.com

FINALLY got back to me after weeks of waiting for approval on 6 magazines for FREE! You still do have to pay them a certain fee for them each ...$2.95 each but my hubby will get 6 mags for one year for $17.80 total that I paid. so it is a great deal. Try it!

Has anyone ever used Magazinebin.com for free mags offers? I sent them $16 in December and my husband still has not gotten any of them, I emailed them and got no answer....any other ideas how to find out why and how to get my money back, or did this happen to you?

Mrs G the same thing happen to me. I sent $12 and my brother hasnt recieved anything. I paid with paypal so I might just file on them through there!

I also Paid through paypal....what can we do about this?
I wonder who else they did this too.

File a claim through the Resolution center. That is what I just did. But it told me they couldnt do nothing but the company would be put on file. Does the company say Directmedia that you paid your money too?

I sent this company money for magazines in December and they never sent them to my husband! :blah: :angry: :mad:

There is no way of getting touch with them either!

they advertise the mags as FREE, and then you have to pay a fee for them anyways. I had sent away for 5 magazines for $16 and they stole that money!

Be careful!

Here is a link to discussion of what's going on with regard to Magazine Bin and any pending refund requests. This is from a Freebie site I frequent under the same User name as here:

The Teen Vogue offer was about 8 weeks ago via TeenFreeway.com Yiu had to sign up to be part of some Survey program. I have yet to see my first issue but that doesn't mean it won't come. TeenFreeWay also has some odd offer for a Free Cheerleading Magazine but you have to fork over the email addys of 3 teenage boys.

There was once an offer for American Girl, but that was a loooong time ago. Out of all the mags I get, my 2 teen nieces really like:

Shape
Body & Soul
Organic Style
Blender
Vibe
Rolling Stone
Spin
Latina
Hispanic
Interview
Wired
and believe it or not..they love Sporting News cu they are way into baseball and basketball.

One of my nieces also loves to swipe my SCUBA DIVING issues and my SPORT DIVER cu she loves all the pictures of the fishies! hehe. She also likes the twice a year mag I get called LAND & PEOPLE cuz of the nice nature photos. If that one hasn't been posted, I'll post a link to the offer.

I have seen really cheap susb to Elle Girl at reliable discount sub places.

lil shy shy, how long did it take, I paid for them in December! I paid $16 through paypal, for 5 magazines for one year, what did you do?

I reported them to the BBB in Florida. They haven't been able to get ahold of them either. They got me for $15.00

If you paid with paypal all you need to do is report it to paypal that you didn't receive the merchandise. They will investigate it and if that company can't prove they sent it you then Paypal will most likely refund you your money.

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_protections-buyer-outside

It says you have to file within 45 days of payment but if I was you I'd fill out the form anyway and see if it works.

MRS G

It was in Dec. so lets see if something should happen for you. My brother just got them on Friday!

I paid for them in December too, you paid too? how much?

Mrs G

I paid $11.80 I try to go to there website and it doesnt work now! I did file the complaint with paypal though!

I guess it is too late to file a complaint.... I paid $16.80 for 5 mags....maybe he will end upu getting something....you waited 5 mths, so we will see huh? thanks :)

I filed the complaint even though it was too late! They will still have it on record!

I am seeing him this weekend so I will check in, but he has not mentioned anything in his letters...

Did anyone ever get mags from Magazinebin.com? my hubby never did and I paid $16 for 5 mags for one year in DEC....

I just sent in for Vitals Mag...still works. and Radar...

He still did not get them :(

I've combined all the threads about Magazine Bin into one so maybe with it all combined you'll can get something worked out and straight!!! ;) Good luck and I hope that others who come along and read this sees the struggle you all have had to go through with this company and will be made aware of the companies problem!!!! :thumbsup:
