something that I signed up for that was free is sending me stuff in the mail saying that I need to pay them. I got so much free stuff latley that I dont even know what it was from. Its only 2.50 that they want but still, they might want more again. I dont know what to do.
 
[quote name='elheroe2000']to get a mag from freebizmag.com do you have to be in the gaming business????or can you get it at home?????[/quote]


One question mark makes you look less stupid than 5.

And anyone can get the magazines from them.
 
Has anyone actually gotten a free mag in the mail yet? I ordered a few and was just wondering. I'm not into paying for them though. If they start asking for money i'll just leave the country.
 
The Blender link just worked for me. The best thing is, there aren't any surveys to fill out, just your name & addy and you're set...

I agree. Does anyone know for sure that they dont make you pay?
 
Yes, I currently receive EGM, Stuff, Rolling Stone (and other other that I forgot) for free.

Free means free!
 
hey cheapyd, are u gonna update this regularly? for those that are dead, wouldnt it be better to remove them? so that way there is always a current list of link that do work for sure. just a thought.

Yes, just like the coupon page, this will be updated regularly.
The reason why I leve the dead links up with a little note next to them is that the deals usually come back.

My guess is that some people will test out the dead deals from time to time and we will discover that deals are back on.
 
Yeah, the PSM one was one that mysteriously returned from the grave, so I guess keeping the dead ones up are, well, like keeping someone on life support, there's that slim chance that they might come back.
 
Can anyone tell me what job industry and functions etc. they used to get free gaming mags ant freebizmags.com?
 
I did. Last week The Wallstreet Journal began arriving each morning at my doorstep. I also started getting Barrons and Cigar Afficianado.

Those were part of that Skymiles for Subscription offer they sometimes listed. Hopefully some of my other choices will begin arriving.

Why DOES it take 6-8 weeks for us to get a freaking magazine?

How hard is it to put your name and address on a new issue and send it to you?

It's like the whole mail-in rebate thing.
 
Well there are people PAYING to recieve thier propaganda, I mean magazines. Every new paying order takes precedence over a complimentary subscription.

Personally, if I don't get them, its no hair off my back, they just don't get my pair of eyeballs to sell to their advertisers.

Even when you PAY for a new subscription you still have to wait 6-8 weeks. In the past and even now when I subscribed to one the wait is the usual 6-8 weeks.

Basically they are telling you that it will take 2 months for them to get off their lazy ass, put your name and address on a mag and send it to you. Not to mention that it is way easier than that cause they use computers to do all that stuff so it is just a matter of putting your info into the database and click.
 
Actually the few times I've paid for a subscription I've gotten it fairly rapidly. The key for that is to go directly to the source and not via some publishers outlet, or other service that sells subscriptions. If you go those routes, obviously it'll get hung in the administration process, just like the administration process that compounds with the complimentary subscription (hence why I'd actually be surprised when I start revieving anything).
 
I JUST got my subscripition to Tips and Tricks today. I got 1 issue of XBN, but its supposed to be bi-monthy, I think.
 
I got some crap magazine the other day, but nothing I actually wanted. I can't remember when I signed up for this stuff, but it's been a while now.
 
Argh I haven't gotten a single one yet.

Neither have my friends.

What I really want is OXM- I hope it has a demo disk even though it was free.
