And, here we go again. Asimov's arrived two nights ago; still no Analog, even though the March-April issue shows up in their store.
After 10 minutes of customer service I was at least able to get confirmation that the issue should be there, but isn't. The rep seemed satisfied by that -- I had to ask to be connected to a supervisor. After another 8 minutes I got a confirmation of my problem and a promise that it would be resolved, and the issue would be delivered, by Monday afternoon. This surprises me since last time I was told it would take 5 days to be delivered, and it took all five of those days. Anyway, we'll see what happens Monday afternoon. But, under Barnes & Noble's continuing problems, they really don't seem to have anyone on customer service who actually understands ereaders. |

Nope, not here. Now, maybe Wednesday.
I find it interesting that all of the people I've spoken to in Barnes & Noble's customer service department speak with strong Eastern European accents. I wonder if they're located near Brighton Beach? And I find it very annoying that they continue to call me "Mr. Kevin." |

Nope, not here yet ... or ever again, apparently.
The official line now is that the offer was discontinued. They have no idea why I wasn't notified, and no idea why I was just billed for the subscription that has been discontinued. They processed a refund of my latest payment; I'll go subscribe to the two magazines individually at Amazon. |
