All too often companies are clueless in regards to things like blogs & social media. I don't complain about companies often, but when I have, only an e-mail to corporate seems to get their attention. I personally let my Fast Company subscription expire a while back as I just don't have the time to read a whole lot of magazines and I get most of my business & tech news via RSS feeds (in nice, small blurbs). At the moment I have one magazine subscription that I've had for the past 10 years or so...Entrepreneur. Other than that I take the paper (which I don't always read) and just a few days ago added The Wall Street Journal to the mix. I guess money interests me (and not the magazine...somehow I got a free subscription to that one a few years back and just tossed it each month) ;) Fast Company did *exactly* what companies should do.

I’m sorry your experience with Fast Company has not been a pleasant one thus far. I want to review your account to make sure everything is correct and send you the most recent copies of the magazine, so you don’t miss out on anything. If you could provide the proper mailing address, I will send a copy of Inc. and Fast Company out to you today. Hi Jeff,
