I paid Amazon for a 52 week subscription and received a 39 week subscription. I didn't find this out, of course, until about week 42 when I realized that I hadn't had an issue in a few weeks. It took hours on the phone for them to even to find out this information.

Here's what you are doing when you buy this:

Order through Amazon, Amazon gives your money to Magazine Express, Magazine Express buys a subscription from Hola. This means that if there is a problem you have to wait forever for them to go through the entire chain of people.

By the way, you can order Hola from www.hello.com and PAY LESS (just a few dollars, but it IS cheaper).

My family and I recently spent 3 years in Barcelona, so upon our return to the States I was looking foward to getting a subscription to "Hola," and ordering it through Amazon seemed the easiest way to go about doing that.

I ordered a year's subscription to "Hola" on Amazon in February 2005. The first issue, after many calls to the 1-800 magazine subscription number provided by Amazon, arrived at the end of May 2005.

However, I was assured by Amazon's subscription 1-800 customer service number that I would receive a full year's subscription: May 2005 to May 2006.

However, all I received were 9 months of "Hola" for my one-year $220 subscription. Very disappointing for such an expensive subscription.

Appaprently others have had the same experience. So, unless you want to spend over $200 to receive only 8 or 9 months of this magazine, avoid subscribing through Amazon.

Never got the item (over 6 weeks waiting!). In the end I had to cancel the order.

Nunca me enviaron el magazín. Al fin tuve que cancelar la orden.

I have been reading this magazine for over 20 years and it is great. Once you start following the stories, you really can't stop buying it. It is a great source of information about europe's royal families and celebrities. it's great!

I have had a subscription to Hola through amazon for about three years and have never had a problem. In fact, I'm about to renew my subscription for the fourth year.

It is June 6, 2011 and i still have not receive my order from MArch 3rd I was suppose to receive my 1st issue in April and still waiting. I have tried to contact someone twice already for a refund and still no luck...I am so angry becuase I want to get a refund but no one can't email me back!!!!Please can someone tell me how to get ahold of someone???

thank you!!
Frustrated!!!

I didn't purchase through amazon so i didn't pay any extra $$ but I have gotten the mag for a year and love the fashion. articles are so-so, but they have some good recipies and beauty product reviews. I also have a problem with the fact that you're not entitled to the extra editions available in spain even if you offer to pay extra.

You can purchase an online subscription for half the price. I love to cut stuff out so it wouldn't work for me though.

Point de Vue is a very good magazine. I like it. However, I don't think I will renew my subscription. Delivery by Amazon, after a very long waiting period for the first issue has been SPOTTY, to say the least. It is a weekly magazine, but I get them lumped into twos, now and then. No continuity. Too expensive for that kind of so-so service.

I must say I am addicted to this magazine. I love the wonderful pictures and following their stories about the royal families and celebreties.I feel almost as I have know them all my life. When the prince of spain got married I knew every single guest invited to the wedding. Readding and following their lifes is a joy. A wonderful magazine that should be in every house.
