perhaps you should keep the guys name email etc off the forum? some people do like to keep their identity anonymous on the net you know....

if that public debate of a customer's problem is an example of the public relations and customer service then i'll be giving it a miss.

cider,

Posting priviliged email correspondance, especially when it appears your operation was in the wrong, and at worst all cryten did is say **** (**** you all veritas. see? sticks and stones!) is thuggery and blackmail.

Best regards

So how is Traders Magazine? The link only takes you to a place to receive free copies without having a chance to look at what they include. Anyone have any comments of this or other magazines? I quite like the look of Active Trader from the website and the sample copies.

errm, well, most paper-based magazines require you to have a copy of the mag in your hands in order to look inside.

If they gave out everything for free on the tinternet, no-one would need to buy it then would they? Although, since you can get three months for free, you dont have much to lose by checking it out do you.

Traders mag is actually rather good as a niche mag. They occasionally run some vendor-puff-pieces but that aside its not bad at all. Trader Monthly also worth reading for the occasional decent article if you can sift through all the overblown luxury advertising, though hopefully the downturn will mean less ads cramming their pages.

Thanks for the info. I have to say though that there was a world of difference between the Traders Magazine link and the Active Trader Link for example. The Traders Magazine link doesn't give any information at all. It does give the offer of 3 months free magazines of course but requires you to sign up for various material from them first.

The Active Trader link in contrast gives a contents list from its latest isssue, has a nice website, and also lets you download some previous issues. I can pretty much judge that Active Trader has some good stuff. Traders mag however is a bit of a gamble. A UK bias would be nice but its a bit of a shot in the dark.
