Oi IPC where is my free subscription

[Kipper]

Do any of you remember that little competition on here last year. If you filled in a questionair thing and you were the first of so many then you got a free subscription to a mag. Well I did it and was confirmed as being one of the first and therfor successful but ive never heard another word or recieved a free mag.
Any of you remember doing it and did you get a result?

[Kipper]

Glad to know I'm not going mad then and it was on this forum wasnt it.

I heard nothing for 6 months, then got the 6 back issues in one go. After this they have been coming through OK.

Worst of it is my missus made me stop my sub when I told her, she said we needed to make savings as I had recently bought new boat so I've been re-reading old copies for the last 4 months.
Anyone want to sell me their old copies Feb, Mar & April for £1 each ?

I also won one of the photo competitions.
Suposed to get a £100 RYA voucher - nothing arrived.
Still, I dont think that RYA vouchers are worth much - second prize would probably have been £200 vouchers.

Must try and cheer up

It was the winning that I was really pleased about - and the taking part that counts.

hi if the prize was for MBM you are not missing much just keep reading the old mags,all they seem to do now is re hash the same old stuff(imho) its a very poor magazine ,ihave stopped buying it which is very sad as i have every issue since they started @ kirtons farm reading,sad i know ,wonder if any one else is of the same mind regards m m 1.

I prefer MBY, I think it's value for money and generally of a higher quality, but I still buy MBM, and have bought SB&RIB, even though the spelling errors get on my nerves, I'm just too pedantic I suppose /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

 

[gjgm]

having just read MBY, I wondered why they wasted the ink.. but MBM seemed quite good this month. guess its varies...

 

[Kipper]

Yes I would have been pleased just to see my photo printed but the vouchers would have been nice to give away as a pressie.
I only did the survay to get a trail sub of classic boats to see what it was like coz i cant get it round here.

Never mind "Tha neva gets owt fa nowt" si thy n bugga

Going back a few years I had an article issued about using you dinghy as a liftraft.
3 years later the exact same article appeared again but under 'Owners tips and ideas' where you got paid for printed suggestions.

I didnt get paid for the first or second entry, the second entry despite being word perfect and included a photo of my boat was supposed to have been submitted by

Doka Peters instead of Peter Daka

Doka Peters lived in Lancashire and not Lincolnshire

Well Buxxa me!

 

[danfoley]

I thought all the subs problems regarding this survey had been solved as there were a number of complaints originally which we got to the bottom of... eventually (searush will back me up!). Anyway, I apologise for this and I'll contact individuals tomorrow.

Thanks,
Dan

 

[Kipper]

Thanks Dan all sorted now so Im happy with IPC again.

Dan,
Also got the free sub message at the end of the survey and never heard a thing since.
Is it because I live in Ireland?

 

[ChrisKaye]

Thanks Dan me happy too !

 

[Nick_Pam]

I thought I got the message at the end too, but never saw the subscription....
Ah well...
