Magazines Readers Digest - U.S. Edition
Books and Publications Average Rating:

Rating: - Lots of ads, then they spam you
RD does have some interesting consumer & finance articles, but it has waa-a-a-y too many ads. I would never actually pay for it, but I do get a subscription as a gift every year. I end up ripping half the magazine's weight out in ads - and no, that's not "just life" as some other reviewer said, it's downright shameful.

Also, make sure you get on the RD website and change your privacy preferences; like other second-rate companies who like to abuse customers, they implicitly assume you want to be spammed by them and have them rent your information out to third parties.

Rating: - Horrible Customer Service
I do not recommend this subscription. The customer service, or the "NewSub Magazine Services" is the worst place I ever call to have some problem fixed. It does not worth it. The teller is rude and repetitive. They doens't know how to answer you if you have a different question or ask for details about something. Plus, until you get to talk to a teller, you will be talking with the machine forever!!!I still have not got a refund from a subscription made on july 2007.

Rating: - Reader's Digest
Reader's Digest is a good, quick read for people on the go. The size of the magazine enables one to put it in a purse or carry on. When concentration is sparce, the magazine fulfils it's purpose.
