SORRY that you haven't had your sub copy yet. Read today that Royal Mail are suffering from staff shortages and some deliveries maybe be haphazard. If no joy on Monday call 020-8335 1113 and Dave will send you a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadster Posted March 28, 2020 Report Share Posted March 28, 2020 My Star hasn't turned up so far here in Derbyshire. Would it be possible to switch a print subscription to a digital one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently emailed saying that I am happy to renew my subscription, but asking if I could pause it until the just before new season ( this year or next year ) begins, but I have heard nothing.

If your Copy fails to arrive a Phone call to Dave sorts things out no problem, in the Post same day, the guy is a legend in my book, nothing any bother to him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANKS ... we had over 100 calls this week from subscribers who didn't get a copy through the mail as usual. Think this could be a continuing theme with Royal Mail. Call the office and Dave will send one although at £1.40 postage a time it could prove costly. 28 minutes ago, Fromafar said: If your Copy fails to arrive a Phone call to Dave sorts things out no problem, in the Post same day, the guy is a legend in my book, nothing any bother to him.

waiheke1 Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 NZs largest -by some margin- magazine publisher (part of Bauer group) announced they are closing nz operations , as result of Covid19 and expected long term impacts on advertising revenues, beyond the obvious immediate short term drops. Will have massive flow on to broader print industry in nz. Hope you guys better placed to survive Phil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted April 1, 2020 Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 And would add. If plan is to keep publishing while there is no speedway happening with presumably "years gone by" articles to compensate for lack of on track activity, will do my bit by taking out an online sub.

I used to get it regurarly on the friday, which was good. This has been going on for at least this year. Roayl Mail + Posti dont add up too well, unless we talking about what they charge. It dont have to be a lot late from the flight over here. And if it misses monday, it wont be delivered until wed as tuesdays are not delivery dates over here.
