Recently renewed my sub and opted for the Greys bag offer. Never arrived.

Called and was told no more available so offered a Ridge clear floater instead. Never arrived.

Called again and told no more available, offered a Greys hoody. Unfortunately it arrived.

OMG! It's not even a Greys hoody, it is a Varivas one and is bright orangey red, I'll look like Kenny from Southpark in it. Worse still, I'd probably get beaten up if I wore it out.

The Pirate.

You'll have to wear it when using one of your high viz orange lines, will set it off a treat

Sorry couldnt resist, pretty poor that they ran out of both

Stewart, you should have just bought a Greys bag and forgot about the subscription. I find that magazine to be to repetitive with to many dubious product test results.

Thats annoying, i just subscribed to Hairdressing International and rather that a comb got a f***ing Greys boat bag.

I mean, what the hell do i do with it, carry stuff?

When I subscribed to troutfisherman I was ment to get a Stillwater fishing bag, after a month I still had not received it so I phoned them up. They offered to send me a airflo ultra ridge supple floating line which I happily accepted. A few days later I received the line and the bag on the same day. Somehow the bag had taken a month in the post so I ended up with a line and a bag so no complaints from me.

Hi Jo from Trout Fisherman magazine here. Message for PitsfordPirate - very sorry to read about the mix-up with your subs gift. I do have the Airflo clear floating line in stock now (both delta and tactical) so would be able to send you some line. Just drop me an email to joanna.cooper@bauermedia.co.uk
Cheers Jo

LOL, you've just been caught

Awaiting on my own subscription to start, and my gift

Too late Jo, the Pirate tells me he has taken a liking to his garment, and has now taken out a subscription with 'Hoodie Enthusiast'.

I renewed my subscription with the free Wychwood box as a gift. Got a letter today to say that they could not honour this as they had received the subscription notice after the closing date for the offer. When I checked back in the mag the closing date is 30th September and today is the 16th. Called up to be told that there were not enough boxes to round. Can't imagine that there are that many people subscribing this month. Told them not to bother and I will keep buying it locally. No wonder people are mad at this.

Do you think the Pirate is really needing a fly line

He will be banned from every Marks and Sparks in Britian if he tries to shop there wearing a hoodie
