GULF COAST READERS = SCAM!!! They promise you a $1000 Wal-Mart gift card for signing up for their magazines. I made sure to ask questions about what else I needed to do in order to receive my gift card, I was told "Oh, you just sit back and enjoy your magazines and wait on your card to come in the mail!" LIE! So when I called to cancel my account, they conveniently didn't have that part recorded, they only recorded the part where I agreed to the terms & conditions. I was on the phone for 1 hour with them telling me that it's my fault that I didn't realize that something was fishy when I signed up and that I could cancel my account for an $859 fee (on top of the $180 I had already paid). I should not have fallen for this, this company is horrible! Don't believe anything they tell you because it's all lies!

  • I don't believe Gulf Coast Readers is at fault for the Walmart Gift Card. I got screwed by the UnitedWebSurvey.com site on which I took the survey that offered the Walmart Gift Card with Gulf Coast Readers. It's all a bunch of (Inappropriate Content Removed) and I advise to everyone to NEVER to an online survey for anything!
