RE: Atlantic Circulation, Inc. - door-to-door sales - cancelled magazine subscription within 3 business days, but still charged for magazine subscription

I want to post a complaint about Atlantic Circulation, Inc. I had 2 girls come to my door and want me to help them earn points by purchasing magazine subscriptions. I ordered one magazine and was told how to cancel if I changed my mind. I did decide to cancel within the 3 business days that I was allowed.

I faxed over my forms that should cancel my order and I was to receive my check that I had written back in the mail within 10 business days. I never received that check back and almost a month later the check cleared through my bank account.

I have been unable to reach the company through the number listed on my order form and have received no response to my faxes. I would like to know who to contact someone further about this company to put a stop to this.

Thanks,

Heidi Dietrich
