I subscribed to MEW around 20-1-10 and got a subscription number. I expected to get this months issue but nothing has arrived through the door yet.

How long does it take to work through and do I need to go and buy this months MEW from the shops?

Thanks Peter

Good luck Peter. I hope your experience is better than mine. I’m still waiting despite having joined in December and having the money taken on 6th January. Five phone calls and three different excuses later I’m still waiting. The latest (today) was “we’re out of stock but you will definitely have your copy by Tuesday”.
I’m not confident.

I also wish Peter good luck! I subscribed in late October and was informed that my first issue would be 158. It never arrived. Since then I have received one magazine only – issue 159. I called about 7 days ago to ask what was going on and was told that the outstanding magazines would be sent asap. Now I have received a letter saying that issue 158 is out of stock but my subscription will be extended. In the meantime, I stll haven’t received issues 160 and 161 although they are both available as digital copies. Pretty poor service I’m afraid.

Regards, Hugh

Some things seem to just not work. It seem to be a one way event. We pay and do not recieve our subscriptions. nothing wrong with our money. Satisfaction guarentee;

If we are not satisfied with your money, we will send it back. otherwise live with our excuses.

I Subscribed end of last year.

Got notified that I will receive from issue 160.

Up to date a couple of excuses later still no magazine.

Issue 161 is already available on the archive page.

Still wating for more excuses via Email.

to print a copy via the internet cost more that the magazine that were paid for.

Lucky people! I am still waiting for Issues 158, 160 and 161. I expect that before long I will also be waiting for issue 162. This is a truly appalling service, I wish I had never bothered to subscribe.

It seems to be just a recent problem, have subscribed to ME for 2 years without any problems, subs to MEW in Dec at exhibition and received issue 161 before (after much chasing) 160 arrived. Hope it all goes smoothly from now on.

Hi David

I’ve emailed you about this but not got a reply. When will the subscription offer book from issue 160 (Peter Wright’s “Model Engineering – A Foundation Course”) be delivered?

According to your reply above it should have been about the third week in March but still nothing
