What else can you call an organisation that takes your money and then refuses to deliver your goods? Apart from a paddy three weeks ago (for which I apologised profusely), I've waited patiently for the, as yet, non arrival of issue 62. Three days ago, the (unmanned) subscription number promised a personal response to missing issue queries. That message has now gone and been replaced by one that shifts the blame to RM and gives no date by which ST will replace the copies that ST 'says' they have posted and that they are contractually obliged to deliver. The issue 62 thread is now inaccessible, presumably because ST is trying to strifle negative publicity, and I've reached the point that all my blind loyalty (many, many years of it) to ST has been replaced by the bitter belief that the whole lot of them are nothing but a bunch of cheap thieving con artists. The moment any of them have the guts to answer the phone is the moment I cancel my subscription. Burn me, flame me, I don't care, I'm past all caring. If any other organisation behaved with such disregard to forward paying customers, they'd have been on Watchdog or some other program that exposes fraud weeks ago.

Get a grip.
Shit happens. It's a magazine. If the worst thing in your life is that your bike magazine hasn't been delivered then you are a luckier person than most of us!
I'm sure that they are working to sort it out.Posted 1 year ago # -

You're right. I reckon they hobbled the serves as a cover up. And to purge the forum of TJ's witterings.

Good god, at least there's no real problems in the world. It's a £4 magazine. Get on Bike Radar and you'll see that MBUK hasn't turned up either (and neither has my £50 Ground Effect merino top...)
What a ridiculously over the top response to something that IS NOT IN THE CONTROL of the company. Yes, they have a responsibility to deliver their product, but they've been right royally shafted by Royal Mail. I had an eloquent response from Jamie this morning following the automated response that you get when you email the subs address, and rest assured, they're (almost) as hacked off about is as you.
I don't have an answer, they don't really, but it's not really worth the objectionable rant you've just made. I'm not prone to posting on this sort of thread but on this occasion... get some perspective.

So your magazines late? I dread to think what you're like if you have a real problem.

According to our records you did not tip your postie, so take your sensitive soul to WHS and buy a copy I,m sure Chipps and Co will reimburse.

Singletrack stole from me also.
I seem to be missing about an hour of my life most days.
Hangings too good for them!

You're one person who's not received their magazine. The owners and operators of Singletrack depend on thousands of satisfied customers for their livelihood. I'm sure they're doing everything they can to ensure you, along with all other subscribers, get their mags as soon as possible.

No really lazlo53, it's not worth your insults, heart rate and hair pulling. Sometimes these things happen. Rest assured, a time will come when you need to get as angry and upset as you clearly are at the moment, but right now, it's not worth it. Believe me - I speak from experience.

We have 1 left I think. In defence of STW who I know are not ripping anyone off we will send it to you if you POP the cover price in a cancer charity box.
The guys are probably in bed right now and can't offer an answer to you so I trust you will be a man about this when they get round to seeing this.

Cheers sc-xc, I've read enough of your crap

What a knob. I mean, seriously.
Mine arrived today btw, still waiting for some other publications from other companies who also aren't common thieves and who would (if I was a ridiculous enough person to phone up and complain) say exactly the same thing.

Man enough tbc? At least I'm answering, unlike ST who are just hiding behind answerphone messages
