Can i start a magazine subscription and then not pay?!
Question:
Can i start a magazine subscription and then not pay?
there's a magazine out there that costs $8.50 an issue, and i want to subscribe to it via one of those postcard inserts as a trial subscription, but depending on whether or not i like it, i may decide not to get it after all. if so, would this show up negatively on my credit record? would they know it was me if i used a different name and address? thanks
Answers:
You can do that; unless they have your social security number, they have no way to report it to the credit bureau. That's what a trial subscription is all about; just be sure that if you decide you don't want to continue the magazine, that you contact them and cancel, or you will be billed for the magazines you receive.
