After receiving an official looking "Early Warning Notice" from North Shore Agency, demanding payment for renewal on Women's Health magazine, which I did not recall renewing, I checked my account on their website and it said, "awaiting payment." I then called WH, and they said it was on "automatic renewal." They also said North Shore Agency is a "non-reporting" collection agency. They do NOT report to credit bureaus. Therefore, if you end up on an automatic renewal list, which you probably didn't know you were on, North Shore usese these scare tactics to try to collect. The magazine removed me from the auto renew list and offered me a discounted rate if I would renew another year... Hmmm, seems like they've had a lot of unhappy customers. Hope this helps.
