      Fantastic customer service. We were expecting our subscription to start earlier in the year. They researched for us and we’ll be receiving our very first subscription this month! Fantastic assistance!!!

      We ordered the high drive activity box along with a 2 yr subscription to the magazine for our grand daughter. An activity box was shipped soon after and the next was shipped 20 days later. These were supposed to be shipped in 3 month intervals. Each shipment is $37.
      I did contact customer service and was told it was an early shipment. This was unacceptable to me. I felt that that was not what was advertised for the subscription and was a way to get more sales. Not good business practice in my opinion.
      In the end, the customer service representative resolved my complaint but i am disappointed.

      Hello Mr. *******, thanks for taking the time to share your experience with us. I'm sorry to learn that you've had difficulties with the account. With the High Five activity box series, new orders and charges are supposed to be processed quarterly (every 3 months). This error has been forwarded to our team for research to help ensure it doesn't happen again. For the trouble, a refund for the second shipment will be generated- you're welcome to keep the shipment with our compliments once it arrives. Please feel free to contact us at ****************************** with any additional questions or concerns.

      Website wouldn't accept correct city so created a duplicate account rather than extending current subscription.
      ******* at Highlights for Children in Customer Service straightened it out right away!
      Many thanks.
