BTM Delivery
« on: May 03, 2006, 04:01:41 AM »
We are having problems again this month with bulk mail centers. To aid our research, can you post when you got your April BTM? If not sure of the exact date, a 3 day range would be helpful. We understand that no one on the East coast has gotten theirs yet. If you live on the East Coast and have received your April issue, please post here and let us know.

And like sheep, we drink the Kool-Aide as requested and don't whine. What is up with this? They have my $55 for 2 year subscription and cannot arrange for their magazine to be delivered until 6 weeks after the posted published date? Martha Stewart's rag delivers quicker than that from her jail cell. Comments by BTM? Fat chance of a good/ACCEPTABLE explanation. They may have my last renewal.

Slushystx, I think I've my comments about this problem have been forthcoming quite regularly. If you'll look, I started this thread in the first place. Why wait to not renew? Please email me your address and name at btmjk@aol.com and I'll arrange for an immediate refund of your remaining subscription. At BTM, we think our rate of satisfied customers ranks right up there with any magazine and will do everything we can to keep it there. If you aren't happy, we'll give you your money back on remaining issues. To all the others who offered constuctive criticism, and especially those who registered complaints with their local post office or on the USPS website, thank you! It looks like the USPS has finally gotten most delivered. We're still working hard on the others and hope to have this problem solved in coming months.

5-15-06 received the april issue today. Wisconsin.

Can you please tell me exactly what date this was mailed out by BTM?
Thanks for any information as to exactly when this BTM was mailed out from the printer to the bulk mailer? And,when does it go from the bulk mailer to the USPS for delivery?
I guess I was looking for how the process works from BTM point of view with specifics as to the dates for the April issue and specifically how long the USPS had the magazine and was holding it.  I think the USPS is much maligned but any info you can shed on the specific dates and the process of mailing would be greatly appreciated.
Does the slow delivery affect subscriptions or renewals?

I just got mine today too. But wait.....it is the May issue. I guess living in Las Vegas has some advantages

By the way, the April issue came around the middle of last month.

tim w.- The magazines were sent from the printer to the USPS bulk mail center in LA on April 16th. They go on the 15th or 16th of every month for the coming month.

Iron,
Although I am still waiting for my April issue (suburban Chicago), you may count me in the number of satisfied customers, and a long-time subscriber.  I already subscribe to BJI, and there is no comparison - apples and oranges.

BTW, I talked to another local guy yesterday, and he said he just received his issue on Monday.  I wouldn't be surprised to see mine in the next day or two.
