Subscription FAQs

Is it safe to purchase subscriptions online with my credit card?
Yes, as long as your current browser supports secure credit card transactions.

Will my subscription be taken in local currency or pounds sterling?
All subscription prices are shown in pounds sterling. For overseas orders, the price you pay will be dependent on the exchange rate of your credit card company and may fluctuate. There is no VAT payable on magazine subscriptions. All subscription payments will be taken in pounds sterling only.

When will I receive my start issue when I first subscribe?
Your subscription will start with the next available issue subject to our publishing calendar. For first time subscribers we aim to post out our current issue if this is available – otherwise your subscription will start with the next issue to be published. For renewal orders we aim to provide a continuous service so your first issue of your renewal will follow the last issue of your old subscription. If you have a particular requirement please specify on your order form or by emailing us at enquiry@sleeper.media and our Subscriptions Department will be happy to help.

Will you confirm acceptance of my subscription order?
Yes. Within 14 days of receiving your order you will receive a invoice that is generated from the website. Due to it coming from the site, please ensure you have checked your spam folders.

Should you have not received your acknowledgement after 14 days, please contact our Subscriptions Department, enquiry@sleeper.media

If there is a problem with your subscription order we will also contact you within 14 days.

Can I order a single or back issue?
Subject to availability, you can order single and back issues via the online store at www.sleeper.media

Where will I find my subscriber number?
Your subscriber number is printed on the envelope that contains your magazine. You will also find it at the top corner of your renewal letters and in any correspondence you receive from our Subscriptions Department. Alternatively you can email us to find out your customer number – enquiry@sleeper.media

How do I change my address details if I am a paid subscriber?
Please email us at enquiry@sleeper.media with your subscriber number and your old and new address.

What should I do if an issue is delivered in a damaged condition?
Please email us at enquiry@sleeper.media and we will arrange for a replacement copy to be sent to you.

What do I do if the issue doesn’t arrive?
Please email us at enquiry@sleeper.media and we will arrange for a replacement copy to be sent to you if the issues have already been sent from our printers.

If I cancel my subscription will I get a refund?
Customer satisfaction is our top priority. Our refund policy is clear – within 7 days of receiving your first issue you have the right to a refund on all unmailed issues you have pre-paid for. Just contact our Subscriptions Department at enquiry@sleeper.media

How will I know when my paid subscription expires?
You will receive four reminders before the end of your subscription term.

The first letter will be sent three months before the end of your subscription. The second one will arrive around the time when you have 2 months left, with the renewal letters carrying on until you receive the final reminder around the time of your final issue.

Hopefully one of these will jog your memory to renew and they all contain a renewal form for you to complete and post back to us. You can also renew online or by fax or telephone.

Why does Sleeper Media send me renewal notices before my subscription has expired?
Renewal notices are sent out well in advance so that our customers do not experience a break in service. Your last issue number is clearly written on the renewal notice and your renewal will start with the subsequent issue number.

I have paid my subscription renewal but have still received a renewal notice?
It is sometimes possible that your payment could cross in the post with our renewal notices. However if you receive a renewal notice more than two weeks after you’ve sent in your payment it may mean that we have not received your payment. It may also mean that your card or cheque has not cleared.

In either case please contact our Subscriptions Department via email enquiry@sleeper.media

What do you do with my personal information?
We will use your personal details to process your order. The subscription forms will ask if you would like to receive special offers or new products/services that may be of interest from Mondiale Publishing and from other carefully selected companies. If you prefer to receive no further information apart from your subscription details, you may select this option. If you are in doubt about the permissions on your personal details, please contact us via email enquiry@sleeper.media. Our full privacy policy can be found here.
