This past weekend I found a bill for a magazine that was asking for payment for a one year renewal. What wasn't included on the renewal notice (by design) is the current expiration date of her subscription.

Yes, I'm pissed mad as hell heck. I have already contacted the company asking why they are preying on senior citizens by demanding payment for a renewal that wouldn't start ... more
