Customer Reviews of Old-house Journal

Warning
I have had the same experience as Ellen who also reviewed this magazine, regarding Old House Journal. I never subscribed to the magazine but somehow received two issues and then was billed for a full year's subscription. I ignored the subscription payment notice figuring it was junk, and now have received two collection agency letters. I have tried calling Old House Journal and was told twice by two different customer service reps that my subscription had been cancelled out of the system. Then why am I still receiving debt collection notices? I can't believe that these companies can get away with this. And to ruin my credit for a measly $21. I agree with Ellen... if you are unfortunately linked somehow to Old House Journal, be prepared to be reported into debt collection, even if you never subscribed to the magazine.

Horrible Customer Service
The magazine was fine, but after one subscription I wanted to cancle. But, they kept on sending my magazine and then sent me to a collection agency, North Shore Agency. I paid the bill and called Old House Journal to let them know it was paid (North Shore Agency doesn't include a phone number on thier collection notice). Then, 6 months later I get a nother collection notice from North Shore Agency stating that I had renewed my subscription, which was a lie. Don't get this magazine unless you want to keep your subscription for life. Because if you don't they'll send you to a collection agency. <

A must-have if you own an old home
This magazine is invaluable for any owner and fan of older homes. Unlike other, more well-known magazines (you know...the one with the TV show) that tend to showcase new homes that look old, OHJ really sticks to the topic of period homes. Some of the articles deal with home improvement, historic preservation or just as an introduction to an architectural style. Like many OHJ readers, the back page, titled "Remuddling" is my favorite. It contains a reader-submitted photo of an older home that was horrendously "updated" with bizarre building materials or with no respect for the home's history or architectural style.
