Bad Guy: RXTuner Mag

Hey All,

Think it is fair to post this and hope it does not get deleted by mods tied to this mag. I subscribed in June to this, paid the money promptly. The check was cashed and I have yet to receive an issue! Only$24+ bucks but a transaction is a transaction. Customer service called, said they would send out a replacement...NOTHING!! BOOSTD 7 (editor) PM'd, NOTHING!!!!!

I'm sorry if the mag is having trouble getting off the ground but that is no reason to steal my money guys!! I think a response, apology, and refund is due. Please act like gentlemen and try to accomodate this. A deal is a deal...

You must be being sarcastic. My wife put in a subscription for me back in February. Since that time, there hasn't been an issue released.

If that is the case why advertise a mag that doesn't exist??? WTF???

Again, the $$ is minimal but this is deceptive advertising to say the least. Email updates as to what we can expect would be nice. Refunds are in order...

Last time I discussed the value of that rag on this forum, "someone" started to delete all of my posts.
Of course, that was last year. Lets see what Ryan does this time.
I didn't even think it was actually in business. As far as I understood it, it went under in February.

Don't bother. Even if he responds it will be a load of BS.

went back and reread your original post: Nothing since June?! that's absolute BS.
I'd file a claim with you bank to get your $$ back.
