I saw on some website, they had a free copy of Time Out online this week due to the postal strike. Did Time out send you a link?
I've been having a postal strike in my area for weeks now I think! Its been taking about 10+ days for lovefilm to send out dvds to me.

Time Out said they would extend my subscription by a week, which is their standard response - not that I've had to complain too often. They said they thought the PO might be prioritising certain items (luckily not bills in my case), but the assortment of post I received didn't bear this out.

Yes, when I still subscribed to the Radio Times, they did the same, you phoned them up and said no magazine received and they gave you another week on your subscription.

It's still a pain when what you actually want is to have the magazine, and weekly listing magazines like TO and RT really have a very limited life.
