I ordered a 12 month subscription to Homes & Gardens on 27th May 2020 and more than 4 months later I am still waiting for my magazines. The customer service is shocking. The best you get is an excuse and told to be patient. The helpline goes to a recorded message that puts you on hold for 20 minutes and then tells you to call back later as it cuts you off. Based on my experience I would recommend buying magazines from the shops not from Magazines Direct. I have given them 1 star as that is the lowest but they don't even warrant that. Other reviewers seem to agree. AVOID .
