I had ordered a 1 yr. only subscription for Wood magazine for my husband in Dec. 2017. Today, Aug. 25th 2018, I was charged $32.09 for another year (?). It was debited using paypal and my credit card. I immediately called using the toll free number to cancel and did so on Paypal also. Paypal immediately credited the amt. back to my card. This company is a scam. I wonder how many other people have ordered through them and have been charged over and over again. I will report this higher up also. It needs to be shut down

I did not sign for auto renewal

I specifically remember only ordering for 1 year because we weren't sure it was the magazine he wanted. I've heard of many others having this same issues. Once theey have your card number, they just renew without permission
