Ranger Rick - Magazine

They took money out of my checking account without my approval, this is fraud. I canceled all my accounts with them over a year ago and just yesterday they took money out of my account. I canceled my account with them online and I did print everything so I have proof. I thought Ranger Rick would be a good thing but it turns out they are horrible people and they will pay for this.

McFarland - Publishing

I published two books with McFarland out of Jefferson, North Carolina and they stopped printing my books some years ago and I never received my full royalties. They have been very nasty responding to my correspondence and complaints. I am advising people not to do business with them or believe their outrageous claims that they have been so fair in business.

Paragon Sales/ Optimum Readers service - magazines

First off they are cheating the people that work for them. If you spend money with a young adult at your door know that that individual won't even see half of that. Andre Walker is a horrible person who takes advantage of the people who work for him not to mention he has sexual relationships with the young girls that work for him. He has kids on with hi...

Nakia Magazine - This company is scam and its owner is thief

Run from Nakia Magazine. I have met this lady and spoke with her. She lied a lot and promised to help me with the work. After that she asked to provide the job for me. I paid around $1, 000 for some expanses and after she received my money, she vanished. Couple of weeks later I found out that a lot of people were scammed by this lady and no one got his/her money back. Be careful.

Star Magazine - Missing issues and late delivery

Customer service is horrible. They are rude and uncooperative. I miss issues and have late delivery consistently. Last year they put the magazine in plastic and it arrived on time for several months. Then the plastic cover stopped and my delivery is always late. I called again and they won't put it in plastic anymore and blamed the postal dept for lateness. I am cancelling my subscription to STAR MAGAZINE.

North American Reader's Choice - Scammed into a contract

This company (if you can call it that) called me a year or so ago and asked if I would like to try some free magazines; they said that I would not be obligated to renew after the trial. I get these magazines (which I never really had much time to read) and after a few months start getting renewal notices for them. I think to myself, well if I don't respond...
