I order this through amazon , receive my first issue , then have the subscription promptly cancel . call Nat Geo , get route to India and receive the typical call center `` customer service . '' I offer to repurchase the subsciption from Nat Geo , they want to charge nearly $ 40 , yet they own web site display $ 15 . the customer service rep tell I to order from the web site then . this kind of disconnect between a company 's web pressence and other incarnation be unexceptable in this day and age . plus , they be still call my house try to sell I crap ! I never expect a historically beloved and classy magazine like National Geographic to have such shoddy and trashy customer service practice . they be obviously make a ton of loot , because they do not seem to care about retain my business at all . strange and a little sad when I can order Entertainment Weekly and receive more lucid service than from Nat Geo .
