Cookies are small text files created by a site and stored on your computer to tell the website information about you. The cookies on this site store the basket information for any orders. If you have tried to change the POST AREA and nothing has happened - or you have clicked 'Subscribe' on a title and the next page showing the shopping cart says £0 total - then your computer does not have cookies enabled.

You can cancel a Direct Debit at any time by simply contacting your bank or building society. Written confirmation may be required. Please also notify us.

WHAT IS A BOOKAZINE?
'Bookazine' (A hybrid of a Book and a Magazine) is a term we have created to describe a glossy, A4 perfect bound (stitched paged) one-off product. Bookazines generally are between 116 and 132 pages, and are all printed on very high quality thick paper, with a glossy cover.
Bookazines are specialist titles covering an area or genre, which also contain a small percentage of advertising to make the product more affordable - hence the low cover price and free postage.
Bookazines are sold exclusively online by Mortons Media Group - and from W H Smith stores in the UK high street.

Prices
Prices shown on this website supersede any other prices listed elsewhere. Some offers are limited to this website only.


When renewing your subscription, it helps us if you can make a note of your customer ID - located on your renewal letter, or on the mailing sheet which comes with every posted issue.

Renewals
There are two ways to renew:

• Secure online, please LOGIN TO MY SUBSCRIPTIONS - which will allow you to see your existing orders and make changes.

• If you are unsure of your customer ID, but wish to renew without checking your existing subscription online, simply order the magazine you wish to renew as though it was a new order. Our system will match your address to your existing order and automatically renew it for you.

Direct Debit - UPDATED
We now offer paperless Direct Debit. This must be done separate from any other order. Simply fill in the address and optional delivery details, and on the second page - your bank account details - and submit securely on-line. The system will email you a confirmation and we will confirm by written post when your first Direct Debit payment is due.
• For more help on Direct Debits, please call 01507 529529 during office hours.
