Dear Subscriber,

Thank you for subscribing to Practical Fishkeeping, we hope you enjoy the convenience of having your copies delivered straight to your door.

Your subscription entitles you to a Fish Tank from Pets at Home, unfortunately due to the Aqua Cube tank no longer being available, Pets at Home are offering you an upgrade.  You will receive written confirmation of this in the next 7 days, offering you a choice of tanks worth considerably more than the Aqua Cube, plus the added convenience of having your chosen tank delivered to your home.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may caused and thank you in advance for your patience.

Kind Regards

Laura Holdup

Direct Marketing Exec


Anyone have any idea what the update would be? To be honest, I'm glad it will be delivered as the nearest pets at home is an hour away from me

 

[Kelly-Jo]

That's crazy! Gutted I didn't subscribe now, I've been putting it off for ages.

 

[Delloy12]

I have no idea, but how do you subscribe to them ?

 

[Kelly-Jo]

You just pay like £25.00/£50.00 for a 6 month or 12 month subscription and you get all the issues delivered.

I have PFK 'liked' on Facebook and apparently subscribers will be getting a Fluval Flora or EBI instead of the Aquacube.

"Okay, subscribers, if you’ve taken us up on the recent subs gift for the tank, then you’ll be getting a Hagen Flora or Ebi – delivered to your home. There were concerns in P@H about the cube tank, so they’ve taken it away to test it senseless, which means that all who’ve just signed up are now getting over £100 worth of delivered tank. HOWEVER! If you’re sat on the fence, you’ve missed out. We have no more tanks to offer, so any further subscribers will be getting a smaller alternative."

Hope this helps.

 

[micko]

Aye, you just contact them. Set up whether you want it as 2x£25 per year or 1x£50 to be taken out of your account.

Not sure if the offer is still on at the moment though.

Ahhhh, thanks Josh!, glad I subscribed when I did now.

The original tank was supposed to be worth £35 or something.

 

[Kelly-Jo]

so is that saying we'll get something less than 14L now?

 

[Josh!]

Kelly, I think if you subscribed for the original tank, before it was changed to a different one, then you'll be getting a Flora or EBI which are both 30litres.

 

[micko]

The flora looks good, think they come with co2

 

[Josh!]

Apparently the co2 system in the Flora tank is quite an expensive one (around £60 if it were to be purchased seperately).
I was on the fence about subscribing and never did - kicking myself now!

 

[Kelly-Jo]

So if i subscribe now will I get it still?

 

[micko]

If there is a choice then I'd definitely go flora.

Just out of interest and off topic, what have you in your trigon 350?

 

[fluttermoth]

So if i subscribe now will I get it still?

No, the offer is closed, I'm afraid.

 

[micko]

HOWEVER! If you’re sat on the fence, you’ve missed out. We have no more tanks to offer, so any further subscribers will be getting a smaller alternative."

Says no here Kelly-jo but you could try phoning PFK and checking it out.

 

[Kelly-Jo]

Surely if i've subscribed and it says '6 months subscription + free gift' they have to give it to me or it's misinforming me?
