GetHuman-279421's review of Hearst Magazines customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's Hearst Magazines customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
GetHuman-279421: The call was successful, but the fact that I had to make it was disturbing. My magazine subscription ran out, but the message on the renewal form indicates you will continue to send*bill unless I notify you. I tried to do on-line, but it was not accepted as it was a gift subscription. I was told to notify the gift subscriber. When I called, I was simply told that it was expired. Lots of effort for nothing!
GetHuman: Let's quantify your experience contacting Hearst Magazines. On a scale of 1 to 5, how easy is it go get help on a Hearst Magazines problem?

GetHuman: And what about Hearst Magazines's ability to quickly and effectively address your problem?
GetHuman-279421: For that I would say five out of five.
GetHuman: And finally- any advice for other Hearst Magazines customers?
