    You can request that your subscription renew automatically every year with our AutoRenew option. Your credit card will be charged the 15th of the month (or closest business day) one month prior to your expiration date at the rate effective at the time of your renewal. Plus, an extra four weeks will be added to your subscription as a bonus. If you know you will renew, make it easy with AutoRenew and never get subscription reminders by mail, email or phone again. Call Customer Service at 877-615-9536 (Monday – Friday, 9:00am to 8:00pm Eastern Time) to activate your AutoRenewal subscription.

  20. What is the AutoRenew option?

    AutoRenew allows you to subscribe without the flurry of annoying renewal notices and phone calls. Your credit card is charged safely and automatically the 15th of the month (or closest business day) one month prior to your expiration date at the rate effective at the time of your renewal.

    You can choose between two AutoRenew options:

    1. Annual subscribers: Once a year your credit card is charged. You will receive four extra weeks added to your subscription every year when you change your subscription to Annual AutoRenew.
    2. Monthly subscribers: Every month your credit card is charged a small fraction of the annual rate. In the first thirty days of a monthly auto-renew option, you may be charged twice, once before and once on the 15th of that month. This will represent payment for the first two months and will happen only once.

    To make the switch to AutoRenew, please call Customer Service at 877-615-9536 (Monday – Friday, 9:00am to 8:00pm Eastern Time).

  21. Why was my credit card automatically charged?

    You chose to renew your subscription automatically. In doing so, your credit card was charged the 15th of the month (or closest business day) one month prior to your expiration date at the rate effective at the time of your renewal. If you feel your credit card was charged in error, please call Customer Service at 877-615-9536 (Monday – Friday, 9:00am to 8:00pm Eastern Time).

  22. Why did my subscription expire when I know payment was mailed?

    Sometimes payments are made late and the check is not processed in time to catch that last week of your subscription. But more often than not the payment is mailed without an order form or account number noted on the check. Please ask your accounting department to add this information when sending us payment so your renewal can be expedited. You can also switch to AutoRenew for automatic renewal and guarantee you never miss a beat.

  23. How can I avoid being overcharged / scammed for my subscription renewal?
