(apologies if this posts twice, it doesn't seem to be showing up?)

I hope this is ok to post here, but since it affects many of us, and it's directly feed related--

When you signed up for SuperPass, there was a tiny little offer for a magazine subscription. It mentioned that the magazine subscription cost ($9.99) was ALREADY INCLUDED in your SuperPass price. (Which is probably why the price was $10 more this year!) You can get a refund of this as long as you send in your username (I assume that means your email address?) and a self-addressed, stamped envelope.

I got in with the $10 pre-show coupon and still had this presented, so I assume that EVERYONE is eligible for this as long as you didn't pick a magazine!

(I REALLY hate this kind of thing, it seems very slimy of Real, so everyone be sure to ask for your refund and maybe they'll quit this "bundling"!)

Here are the instructions, from my copy of the page I was presented:

Magazine rebate instructions:
If you selected a magazine, RealNetworks, Inc ("Real") will share your name and address for the purpose of fulfilling the subscription. Real will not share your credit card information.
If at any time you would like to cancel the magazine, simply call the toll free number listed inside every issue.
Additionally, if in the next thirty days you would like a refund of the subscription value allocation ($9.99) send a request with your SuperPass username to:
ValueMags - SuperPass
40 East Chicago Avenue #429
Chicago, IL 60611
Please include a self addressed stamped envelope and your SuperPass username. US households only. One per household.

I went to my account to make sure of what my username was and boy is my account weird looking. I signed up for the 3 month deal with the coupon, total cost should be 29.99.

My account at real shows me at $14.99 per month, but they billed my charge card $12.99.

Shouldn't the whole $29.99 appear at once?

Yes it should. Did you save the email receipt they sent you? I'd either call them or send a copy via email and get them to fix this, otherwise you're going to end up paying $38.97 unless you cancel before the end of the show.
