I signed up for the six copies for £14.99, in order to get the 2for1 card & free seeds. I received the magazine but nothing else. I sent an email explaining the situation, I was told the seeds would be forwarded to me but the card was on the inside cover,this I found quite patronising, as I would have seen it, having purchased the magazine last year. I sent photos of the cover & inside cover. I’m very frustrated with the response & would like the situation resolved. I want my 2for1card. I hope yo can help with this problem.
With thanks Wen
