iPad Newsstand 'subscription'? Missing out?

Hi, I'm new to this forum- having only discovered it's existence by accident on a Google search! I have had a break for 5 years or so from MEW type activities, having previously been a subscriber to MEW. I've today bought a mill from Arceurotrade and am getting interested again!

On my iPad this week, I found an option to 'subscribe' to MEW, which I did. However, I do not have a subscriber number, and having read the magazine, discover that I may have missed out on freebies if I had subscribed in the conventional way.

Is the iPad 'newsstand' subscription equivalent to a conventional subscription? If so, can I get a subscriber number, and have I missed out on freebies?

Thanks,

Andy (feeling I might have missed out!)

You would have been eligible for the gift if you had taken out a Print or Print+Digital subscription via this site. The subscription you have is not through Mytimemedia so you won't get a gift which as its a digital sub is no different to taking out a digital only sub here except that you would also get access to the online archive which in te case of MEW wiould allow you to view every issue.

If you want the access to te archive then best cancel your ipad subscription if you can and take out a new one here.

OK, Thanks. I didn't realise it wasn't 'direct' and it seems there is no way to cancel.

Could you maybe put a sticky up to guide people to subscribe through the proper channels?
