Perhaps Smartimes Magazine could learn from the Minutia Magazine from Microcar.org.

It is small magazine which has an online version of it. Instead of something big, perhaps they can have some thing smaller and easier to produce?

SmartTimes magazine

I also subscribed to this magazine back in 2009 paying via PayPal. It looked like a very good magazine with quality articles. It is September 2011 and I still haven't received a magazine but my PayPal account has been charged $20.00 in 2010 and again in 2011. I called their number 718.404.9298 and got a voice mail response from David. I left a message and have not received a response back. I contacted PayPal to cancel my subscription payment and I sent an email to 'sales@smartimesmagazine.com' asking them to refund my money. I don't expect to get a refund, but I want everyone to be aware of the fraudulent promises of receiving the magazine and charging your credit card.

This magazine was transitioned to an online publication just as I subscribed to it. I paid with a credit card, but my "good faith" in assuming that they were going to deliver caused me to hold on until I was outside of the time limits allowed in Magnisson-Moss, so I was not able to recover. I was not dunned twice, however.

Based upon my experience, you shouldn't expect to hear word one back from them. And, for those who say that I shouldn't be complaining about this, send me a double sawbuck and I'll be more than glad to stop.

SmartTimes magazine

I did finally get a call back from David and he told me the number I called was his personal Skype account number and he had received numerous calls from smart owners asking about their subscription to the magazine. I never got a response from the email I sent to the smart times magazine email address. I don't expect to in the future. I consider this a $40.00 experience.

I received more magazines from the Smart Club UK than I did from the Smartimes Magazine.
