Where can I purchase my copy?
 
The publication is widely available at most major retailers in the area. If you find your newsagent does not stock it, please ask them if they can order it in for you. If you still experience difficulty please call us and we’ll be happy to find a retailer in your area where you can redeem the vouchers.
4.
Do I need to renew my subscription?
 
If you pay by Direct Debit, you will automatically be renewed, you don't have to do anything. If you are a voucher subscriber, you will automatically be sent your new vouchers two weeks before your existing vouchers expire.
If you pay by credit card, we will notify you before your subscription expires with details of how to renew.
5.
How does Direct Debit continuous payment work?
 
Subscriptions are made on either an annual, bi-annual or quarterly basis by Direct Debit. Your payments are spread accordingly. As this is a continuous payment method you are in complete control of your subscription as well as eliminating the need for renewal reminders.

Is the online payment secure?
 
Yes. We use SSL encryption software to keep the details of your order and payment information secure.
7.
How do you acknowledge receipt of my order?
 
If you order online, we will acknowledge your order with a receipt at the end of the transaction and an email sent to the email address supplied. If you order by phone and have given us your email address, we will send you an email confirmation immediately. If you don’t have an email address we will write to you within a week.

No, your voucher can only be used on the day and for the title printed on it.
