ValueMags will never automatically renew your magazine subscriptions.
When you sign up for a free magazine subscription at ValueMags that's exactly what you get. You will receive uninterrupted service during the term of your subscription. When your magazine is about to expire you may receive renewal solicitations directly from the magazine's publisher.
The choice to renew is yours.
Read the fine print:
Beware of other magazine subscription sites that offer "auto renewal" or "continuous service" subscriptions. This means that your credit card will be automatically charged every time the magazine is about to expire... until you call to cancel.
Some websites will spin continuous service as an "Exclusive Benefit". It's sometimes called "Premium Uninterrupted Service", or "Uninterrupted Subscription Service". No matter what it's called, your credit card will be charged the "prevailing rate" each time your magazine subscription expires. If you let this happen, you could miss out on a better price from the magazine's publisher or somewhere else online.
Since 1999, ValueMags has never had a customer request to have their magazine subscription automatically renewed. We feel that it's best to leave this renewal decision in the hands of the customer. Our customers will have the chance to always get the best price and service, guaranteed. No pressure, and no tricks!

Once you've placed an order, it takes approximately one to two weeks for your
subscription to be received and scheduled by the publisher. Your subscription is
then added to the publisher's next production cycle and shipped via standard mail.
For example, if your monthly magazine subscription was ordered and received by the publisher
in July, and the August issue has already shipped, your order may be added to the
September mailing.
Publishers ask that you allow 4 to 6 weeks (weekly magazines) and 6 to 10 weeks
(monthly magazines) for delivery to start. Other less frequently published magazines
may take longer to arrive. If you have not received your subscription within the
expected time frame, please send us an email and we'll track it down. Keep in mind,
your subscription starts when you receive your first issue -- not when you place your
orders. If you subscribed for 12 issues in one year, you will receive all 12 issues.
2. Can I renew my magazine(s) with ValueMags?
Yes! Just go ahead and put the magazine you want in your shopping cart.
Notice the column called "renewal"? Change the 'No' to 'Yes' -- and when you
check out make sure your shipping address is the same as it appears on the
label of your current magazine. We'll take care of the rest!
3. How do I send magazines to more than one address?
On the checkout confirmation page, click the link to "Add New Ship To Address".
Enter the shipping address and click "Proceed to Checkout". Click the drop down
menu in the 'Ship To' column and choose the right address. Rinse and repeat...
4. How do I send a Gift magazine subscription?
ValueMags will send a Free post card announcing your gift subscription!
When you reach the order confirmation page, click "Add" next to each magazine
and enter a personal message to be included on the gift card. A Free Gift Card
will be sent to each recipient.
5. Is ordering online safe?
When you order a magazine online at ValueMags no one will have access to the information
you provide. We use SSL technology which encrypts your order to prevent
anyone else from reading it as the information travels from your computer to ours.
9. How do I change my address?
You can change your address by submitting a support request via our online form. Please include your current address and your new address in the body of the message.
10. Will you "automatically renew" my subscription?
No. ValueMags will never automatically renew your magazine subscriptions.
Be careful of other magazine subscription sites that offer "continuous
service" subscriptions. ValueMags will simply send you an email and give
you the option to renew your magazine subscription. No pressure, and No tricks!

I use the CR mag. often. It could be a lot better if the web were also part of the subscription. Even though I keep copies the web is faster & more convient.
I use this magazine as a great starting point for many purchases. Since reasons for various ratings are given, I can decide if they're pertinent for me. It helps me know what questions to ask and what to look for, especially important with big ticket items. I'd be lost without it.
The test results can be very helpful. More important, though, are how they are arrived at. Even when the products in question are not what I'm looking for, I get ideas on options to consider.
I thought that when I purchased this magazine, I would be able to access reviews on-line. But I was wrong. For that you need to buy another subscription! I like Consumer Reports and find that their reports are reliable. But it is limiting in that I can't research prior reviews so I had better be buying a product as it is reviewed that month. Sorry but the internet wins.
I rely on Consumer Reports for all of my major purchases. I recently used their research to help decide on the HDTV that I purchased. I couldn't be happier with the quality of their research - and I love my new TV (Sony Bravia XBR 46").
