need information on Stonehouse Publications

Nov 10, 2012 2 Replies

Does anybody know anything about the health of Stonehouse Publications, a m agazine distributor in Canada?



I had a subscription to Embroidery & Cross Stitch through them, renewed my subscription earlier this year and never received another issue.



An internet search has turned up a few mentions of them *possibly* going ou t of business, but nothing official from the company. The biggest hint is t hat clicking on any links to go deeper than the company's home page takes y ou do a generic placeholder page with links to unrelated companies.



A related company, Transmedia-Group, also does not have any mention of cess ation on its webpage.



In the meantime, I think I've found a few places where I can get the missin g back issues and use a subscription service to continue my subscription. I 'm just angry that they took my money without any intention of fulfilling t he subscription.



If any of you were using them to get magazines (they also had Inspirations and other popular Australian needlework/craft publications, as well as *man y* magazines on other topics), you might want to check your issues to see i f they have stopped coming.



Any information anyone can provide is greatly appreciated!



Thanks,



Carol S.


The same thing has happened to me. I haven't gotten any magazines from them in months. I am upset because my subscription for a year cost's almost $90 .00. I am going to do a whole lot more investigating this, just because it is the principle of them getting away with it.

Same thing happened to me on same magazine that I had just renewed for 2 years, which wasn't cheap!! Who are you using now and are they USA based? Would appreciate any info you can share.
