History Channel / A&E Television Networks review: Default on lifetime membership obligations 73

Same here, paid for the lifetime membership and got 2 issues of the Warrior magazine and then nothing, tried to email to the Warrior and the email came back undeliverable. Why has nothing happened? I will never sign up for a lifetime membership again is being screwed is the end result!

Complaining about defaulting on a lifetime membership doesn’t do a thing to right the wrong, but I am one of the many who had a membership and seemingly without notification, it was dissolved. I would rather have what was promised to me rather than a refund.

Member since 2005. I received some of the original benefits, as well as the original magazine (which I liked). One issue of Warrior magazine (👎🏻). That’s it. I don’t remember how much the life membership was, but it wasn’t worth what I received.
Rip off

I have been a Life Member #[protected] since September 2010 and have received nothing from The History Life Channel Club. Does the Club still exist?

I have been a member #[protected] since September 2010 and have not received anything fro the Club. Does the club still exist?

I’ve been wondering for years what happened too! What can we do about this? Anyone ever heard anything? Lol. I was expecting a magazine and cool things for the rest of my life!

I became a life time member too and after a couple of years and after many calls and e-mails have had no response after the initial joining gifts. Member # [protected] 4/2005. What a rob job.

Well after 2 pages of squaks here's mine. :ifetime member several coin sets unfinished received several issues of warrior mag and got sick to my stomache it was that bad. I also bought a lifetime membership for my wife in the cooking club through same outfit with an outcome and exact similar outcome. so I guess i' m a two time sucker. oh well so be it. len c gadde

Me too. Lifetime member since 2005. Haven't gotten anything from them in years. Got a couple of Warrior magazines after they switched to that magazine and then nothing. Is there a class action suit? Has A&E addressed any complaints?

I have also signed up for lifetime membership I think we should be reimbursed for what we paid

The same here, I wondered what happened.

I too purchased a lifetime membership At first the magazines came regularly, then just once in a while and now, the last one I have is from 2013. I see a previous post says they are out of business. What they did to us is terrible.

Like the others i too am a History Channel Club Life Member and have received nothing the past few years. I've been a member since 2011.

Was looking at the letter opener I received as part of my life membership and was wondering what happened. I use to receive magazines as well and they slowly stop coming. Well this got me a little upset. Is there any recourse to get my money back?

My lifetime membership probably goes back to 2005. After the magazine stopped coming, I was actually able to talk to a live human being about 5 years ago, and I asked what my benefits my lifetime membership actually give me now, and she told me access to the History Channel websites, which are already free. I was actually on one of the websites the other day, and wanted to read an article that was from their "archives", and I could not even gain access to it! I tried calling them several times, but could not connect to a live human. As I lifetime member, I had given up on receiving almost anything, but I should at least have access to archived articles on their website. I am not giving up on this until I reach somebody and get this fixed. Glenn in Brooklyn, NY.

I am also another one suckered in by this sham. Have been a so called lifetime member since 2012. Have not seen anything related to the "club" in years, but out nearly 300$
Thanks, History Channel!

I've been a lifetime member since 2003 I received regularly the magazine until two years later I hadn't received any. I feel is though we need to get a lawyer sign Wayne Countryman

I too was suckered into joining; don't remember exactly when. I did receive some fancy "stuff" such as a letter opener in the shape of a sword, a key chain, a magnifying glass, etc., about a years worth of magazines and then everything stopped. That was a lot of money for the honor of a membership number and a few trinkets.

I have been a Member since 2002 and everything was going swell for me till I moved down here in 2015 and with the Post Office not forwarding my magazines I tried several times to get in touch with them and have had no success ? I think that they have dropped out of site out of mind and will no longer honor their members at all ? I feel real bad as I loved that magazine a lot too.

I also paid for a lifetime membership. What a crock! It is infuriating to pay that kind of money only to get nothing, then see the magazine is still available but to be purchased on Amazon. The least the History Channel and/or A&E can do is make things right by providing the magazine, both past and present issues available to lifetime members. I am a teacher and use the past issues in my classroom. It would be nice to have the resource I paid for available to my students. You would think a billion dollar corporation would have resources available to provide their lifetime members the things promised. Maybe a class action lawsuit would help them understand their side of the contract.

Paid for a life membership and received a few magazines, but had forgotten about it until I found my list of email and membership information. Even have my member #.

I just found my Life Member Credentials from when I joined on 2005. A big selling point was the Partnership with the History Channel. So what about their commitment to all this? I moved from TX to OH in 2011. Not sure when the magazines stopped as I also had other magazine subscriptions on History. So sad that you can't even rely on an institution like the History channel. Seems they leant (sold?) their name without taking any responsibility.

I am in the same position as you.
