Magazines Direct

Compared with the high street shop this is cheaper for the same magazine, and the free postage made the difference for me. Ordering was simple and the parcel was tidy when it came. Good value for a regular reader.

I needed a gardening title for the allotment and wanted something that wouldn't cost a fortune each month. Compared a few places and this came out cheapest with free delivery over a certain amount. Ordered it and it arrived the next week. Decent.

Needed a kids' magazine for my daughter's birthday and had about five minutes at lunch. Found the one she wanted, paid, and it came the next week. Quick and no fuss.

The biggest difference for me was that they carried the specialist baking title I'd been hunting for, which the big chains had sold out of. I'd looked at a couple of other sites first and this was the cheapest for a year's sub, and it turned up on schedule with no problems.

Honestly the best place I have found for ordering magazines in bulk for the book club, the range is wide and the renewal reminders arrive on time every year. Prices are fair compared with buying each issue at the newsagent. Would happily stick with them.

Compared with the supermarket magazine rack, this works out cheaper if you take the annual option, and you don't have to remember to pop out for it. The app is a bit basic but gets the job done. Quite happy with it.

The first thing I noticed was that the magazine was the previous month's issue, not the one I'd ordered, which was annoying as I'd specifically wanted the feature in the new one. They did send the right copy after I emailed, but it took a few days and I had to post the old one back myself. Checkout was quick and the prices were reasonable. Just a bit of a faff to sort.

I needed a birthday present for my dad who only reads the one monthly, and I had a look around a few other sites first. This one had the title in stock with a clear date, so I went with it. Smooth from start to finish.

Renewed my magazine here on my phone on the bus, took about two minutes and no faffing about with logins. Got the reminder email in time and the issue landed on the mat on Tuesday like it should.

I needed something to read on the train and I'd been meaning to take out a subscription for ages. Tried it out and the renewal is simple enough, though I did get a reminder email a bit too late. Still, it's what I wanted.

Got my first ever magazine subscription here, the fashion one my mum keeps going on about. Set it up on my phone in bed and it started the next month. The monthly bill is easy to see and I like being able to pause it when I'm skint. Nice one.

I've been a customer for years so I'm used to them, but this time three issues of my cookery magazine never turned up and I had to chase it myself. When I emailed it took nearly a week to get a reply, and by then I'd already decided to cancel. Quite frustrating given how long I've been ordering.

Ordered a magazine for my girlfriend's birthday and the delivery took about ten days, longer than the site said. Not the end of the world but a bit annoying. Ordering was easy enough.

Really surprised how straightforward it was to set up my first subscription, the form took under five minutes and the confirmation came straight away. The first issue arrived with a note about my renewal date, which I thought was a nice touch.

Compared with buying the same magazine at the station, this is noticeably cheaper per issue and they deliver it to the door. I'm on a tight budget so that matters to me. Nothing to complain about.

Way easier than the newsagent, I don't have to remember to pop out and grab it on a Thursday. Ordered it in about a minute and it just turns up.

You can get pretty much every specialist title here, including the niche photography and model railway ones that the big shops don't carry. The renewal page is a bit fiddly and you have to log in again to change the address. Prices are fair for what you get and the issues arrive properly packed. Worth a look if you read the trade stuff.

I've had my weekly gardening title delivered here for going on six years now. It turns up on a Tuesday pretty much every week, and the one time it was late they sorted it out with a phone call. I don't bother with anywhere else.
