Fellow Kolbers,
If you subcribe to Kitplanes magazine beware of a scam to lock in a cheaper rate asking you for a credit card number. The outfit is out of Floridia. Kitplanes is out of CA. Wink

Paul

ps. Matt can you post or forward to all matronincs list that may be affected?

Hello Paul and Kolb list members -

I forwarded your message to my Editor-in-Chief (Marc Cook) and asked him
if he knew about this. He forwarded it to Cindy Pedersen, the publisher
of Kitplanes Magazine. Her message seems to have bounced, so she asked
me to repost it for you all here. Thanks for the question!

(Attention to Matt Dralle: Please feel free to do a follow-up post if
this has gone to any other of your lists as well - thanks!)

best regards,
Cory Emberson

Palm Coast, Florida subscriber fulfillment office.

Yes, we do have a telephone renewal effort - it is done through Ebsco
telemarketing after the subscription has expired. We do ask for a credit
card number, but it is not necessary- (they can be billed). They are NOT
offered a better deal if they give us a credit card number - they get
the standard rates that they also see in the mailed efforts.

We are only contacting our own subscribers. If their profile is marked
'do not call,' we don't call them. We also do NOT do any outbound new
business offers to try to get new subscribers. If the call does not
come from Ebsco or the mail from Palm Coast Data, it is not authorized
by KITPLANES Magazine.

For any questions regarding the expiration date or to renew directly,
call subscriber service at 800.622.1065 or access your account

Cory,
So it wasnt a scam? When I called kitplanes the lady I spoke with said she knew nothing about the company in fla and said Kitplanes never ask for a credit card number. I called directory assitance and there was no Kitplanes listed at the address listed on the mail out. What got me was I filled out the form from fla and had mailed it yesterday morning. Yesterday at noon I recived the renewal notice from the cal office. So I called the post office and had them pull the letter from the mail. So I thought it was a scam. Sorry for the confusion. Kitplanes id my favorite magizine by the way! Wink

remote connection to this thread:

If you haven't been to Sun-N-Fun before, you might not know that the
publisher has a booth there every year & they offer 2 yrs for the price
of one, new or renewal subscription.

If you aren't going & you need to renew, send the money with a friend. Smile
