Alteration of photographs to give false impression - unethical actions
In view of the recent press regarding alterations of a photo of Princess Catherine and her children, I find it quite interesting that People Magazine was complicit in the described behaviors in a far more flagrant manner in view of the attached photo.
Not only does this display overtly unethical press activity, but comes as People itself attempts to profit off the story related to the Princess.
I have one very simple question and expect a response. When will you make public your unethical actions and apologize?
Desired outcome: Public apology for misleading altercation of photograph on January 23, 2023 cover regarding Prince Harry.

People Magazine's website appears to be focused on art and entertainment. While this can be a great source for finding creative inspiration, it's important to verify the legitimacy of the site and its content before investing time or money. However, it's important to take the time to research the site and verify its legitimacy before making any purchases or investments.

However ComplaintsBoard has detected that:
- While People Magazine has a high level of trust, our investigation has revealed that the company's complaint resolution process is inadequate and ineffective. As a result, only 3% of 93 complaints are resolved. The support team may have poor customer service skills, lack of training, or not be well-equipped to handle customer complaints.
- People Magazine protects their ownership data, a common and legal practice. However, from our perspective, this lack of transparency can impede trust and accountability, which are essential for establishing a credible and respected business entity.

I am Brandon Lee’s real fiancé. The article is a lie and all false information. Liza has been bullying, stealing, and putting false information out in public for attention and to further fraudulent causes related to my Brandon’s death. The same with Linda Lee Cadwell emery… I am not only personally offended by any statements she makes, she and those with...
Read full review of People MagazineBias & Disrespect
Reading endless articles which show nothing but disdain & disrespect for the Princess of Wales. When describing royal outings they are always refered to as Prince William & Kate Middleton, this is disgustingly wrong & has been for over a decade. The reason for this abject disrespect for the future Queen is a ckear bias towards Meghan Markle. This is hugely shameful & puts a definite shade over the entire publication, especially given the disgraceful behaviour of the Duke & Duchess. People Magazine should be ashamed of their obvious bias when none is necessary.
Desired outcome: Call the Princess of Wales, the Princess of Wales, as is her rightful title. This is slso accurate, which People magazine doesn't seem to bother with.
Article regarding George Clooney having Bell’s palsy
I was just reading the article on George Clooney having Bell’s palsy as a teenager. You said it is a temporary condition. If you had done your research Bell’s palsy is not always temporary. 15% of Bell’s palsy pts will have lasting or reoccurring symptoms. I am in that category and have had Bell’s palsy for almost 5 yrs. George Clooney should consider himself lucky. Please research your information next time. Thank you. Cindy Marcy
Why cover story of Prince Harry, a whiny brat who's had so many advantages?
You never had one cover of our 45th President nor his First Lady. Yet you managed 19 cover stories of Michelle Obama. Your editorial stated that you are a fair and unbiased company and report the news fairly. Not true, is it? Are you ever ashamed of featuring a piece of work like Prince Harry and helping him sell his book? His family won't fight back as they have more integrity than to air their family secrets in public about each other.
Desired outcome: I'd appreciate a cover story on an American patriot rather than this spoiled royal.
Trying to get a digital people magazine
Trying to get a digital people magazine. I have been a people subscriber for 22 years if not more. I have yet to receive my Barbara Walters copy of people magazine. I have talked to over eight people trying to get a digital copy. I’m getting the magazine sent to my house but I would like to look at the digital. I had The digital last year when I was told they were doing this for six months which I didn’t want. And I end up getting a magazine instead. But for just this copy I would like to be able to read it online. And I’ve got nothing but the runaround. I pay $179.95. And it says it’s free to upload but it Is it. So if there’s a way that I can get my digital/magazine it would be fantastic. Like I said I have spoken to a different people today. Been on the phone for at least an hour and a half.
Paid for the next year but cancelled
Even though our subscription was paid up until August 2023. evidently you have discontinued sending magazines. My husband is David Buell in Richardson, TX Membership PPL2656899974/5. The reason for this error is because we kept getting renewal notices in the mail. So David called the number we found for People and it was automated. There was a choice to get off the automatic renewal list. He chose that and now we are not getting any magazines.
Desired outcome: We paid up until August 2023 and we want what we paid for.

Dissing a legend
I'm a loyal customer, I'm so disappointed in your choice of cover for October 24th. Where's your loyalty to our American legend? You featured Wiilly and Kate, (they are British by the way), and not our beloved Loretta Lynn! Think to ask your coworkers, take a poll next time there's an American legend being covered on the news rather than go on the overseas,gossip. You are a huge well known magazine in our country, take pride in our American pioneers. Thank you for your time. That's all...
Desired outcome: Feature several American pioneers, before they pass on, while they can still see how much we love and appreciate them.
No print editions received
As long term subscriber, I no longer receive print edition but can only get magazine online. I see print edition in stores. I do not read magazines online. People say it's a supply chain issue. So they can sell in stores but not mail to subscribers? This is very unfair. Holly Glasier 122 Crystal Canyon Drive, Carbondale, CO [protected]. [protected]@yahoo.com
Desired outcome: Continue print editions that I have paid for
The coverage you are giving to Amber Heard
My name is Susan Mosley and I am 73 years old and have always enjoyed People Magazine. However, you are no longer an unbiased magazine. You have chosen to champion someone who is an abuser. I was abused for years by my late husband and there is no way, a woman abused by a man would gaslight, scream at, taunt etc. Fear is real when you are the abused and that is definitely Johnny Depp in this case. And I never wanted sex with my abusive husband, but I had no choice. If Johnny Depp suffered erectile dysfunction, I think it's pretty clear that no person wants to have sex with someone who hits, taunts, belittles them. She never takes responsibility for anything and has an excuse for everything. I know an abused person when I see one and it is not Ms. Heard. She is a despicable person who lies constantly. You have chosen to hitch your wagon to an abusive woman who thinks her so-called beauty gives her a pass for the most despicable behavior. If you watched the trial, Mr. Depp admitted his faults and took responsibility for his flaws. Ms. Heard is an arrogant, narcissistic, D actress and you are giving short shrift to a phenomenal actor who shares his time and money with sick kids and is there for the marginalized in our society. It's no wonder he prefers Europe. American journalism is as crooked as the day is long. So I will no longer purchase your magazine, even though I have been reading it forever.
Desired outcome: I want People to be a trail blazer & give as much time to a male victim of abuse as you do a woman who wasn't abused. A reply please.
Refund
My mother paid for a one or two year subscription to People Magazine in the amount of $114.95 on March 18, 2022 for the print editions. On June 13, 2022, she received a notice about them suspending her print editions due to limitations on inventory availability. People offered the digital edition in place of the print edition. My mother is 83 years old and has a difficult time as it is using her phone, and it would be impossible for her to read an entire magazine on it. She subscribed to the print editions and not the digital. If they can’t deliver, then she should receive a refund for the remaining editions. I sent numerous emails, but they just keep responding back about signing up for the digital editions.
People Magazine being delivered in duplicate
I have subscribed to People magazine for years. For the first time, last week, I received two copies of the magazine, addressed to me differently but to my correct address. One copy notes the subscription expires March 2024. The other copy notes the subscription expires March 2025. I have tried three times to reach customer service to correct and clarify this and there seems to be one scam after another...all wanting money to solve this problem.
How do I reach the real customer service department for People Magazine. This is ridiculous!
Desired outcome: Correction to my subscription in the correct name as ordered and expiring on the correct date.
Giving me the digital edition when I paid for the hardcopy
I do not want the digital edition, I paid for the hard copy and if you are going to continue to sell it in the stores then send me a voucher for a free copy every week if mail fees are too high. I would prefer that to the digital edition that you are forcing me to take and I will not. I threw out the postcard. You can refund my money since I only received 4 issues and I paid for 24.
Desired outcome: Either my money back for the 2-year subscription or a voucher each week for a free copy from the stores or fulfill your contract and continue to send it to me until the subscription is done.
I am currently going through the exact same thing. I paid $114.95 on March 18, 2022. I received a notice in June about them suspending the print editions. I’ve been emailing them, but I keep getting the same response about using their digital editions, which I am not interested in. What would they do if the internet didn’t exist? They would HAVE to refund our money.
Suspending delivery to rural areas
People Magazine is suspending delivery of my print magazine, which ends APR23, no refund was offered. They offered 6 months of People Magazine Digital, the website that was offered for this deal, wants payment not an account number.
This magazine was a gift for my 84 year old Mom, she does not use computers, so a digital copy will not work.
It appears, that People Magazine does not want to deliver to rural areas.
Desired outcome: Refund, or voucher to get the magazine from the store, until April 2023.
Bias reporting for the Kardashians
Every Magazine for the last months has focused solely on one family besides the Royals, and it’s the Kardashian family, Mostly Kris, Kim, Khloe, and Kylie, who are irresponsible role models for your upcoming audience, selling their lies, and their horrible behavior, horrible family dynamic, Mental Abuse domestically, as seen on their new show on Hulu, to make it seem as these women are the most influential women today, being idolized by your magazine, with your bias reporting, as well as TMZ is a shame! A real shame! Khloe / Kim are literally starving themselves, and remember your promoting this behavior! So shame on your magazine people. Your part of the problem, and not the solution. https://youtu.be/F3V_Nnxl6kU
Desired outcome: Report more about other things positive things, I know drama sells but at what price are you willing to pay or receive.
Editor in chief Liz Vaccariello
People magazine should represent the audience it serves not the woke liberal margins. The editor's letter from liz on her daughters' gender identity is not something endearing, rather it is self indulgent bs that will drive readers like me away. I - as most people - read people to escape not to encounter what is happening with brainwashing our children with critical race theory or introducing inappropriate gender or sexual discussions. Perhaps people should analyze its reader base to understand that the liberal wokes would not be caught dead with a people magazine - rather its the middle of the country that reads your gossip.
Desired outcome: Fire Liz
Dishonest and Disingenuous Article Written by Olivia Jakiel on Dog Mauling
"Family Warns Others of the Danger of 'Littermate Syndrome' After Pack of Puppies Maul Toddler".
A 2-year-old girl has a long road to recovery after she was mauled by a pack of her family's puppies.
Not once in Olivia Jakiels article did she mention the breed of the dog! The family left the daughter by herself with 4 Pit Bull Puppies. Not once did Olivia mention the breed. Why?
That is not borderline dishonest, that is being dishonest with a motive to conceal.
This type of journalism is reason why 50% of country does not trust journalists. An alterior motive in place to protect a pesonal belief. would not be a stretch to think Olivia is a dog lover (so am I) and may own a Pit Bull.
Statistically speaking, most dangerous dog in the world. That is a fact. Four of them, even at young age, very dangerous but Olivia leaves that fact out altogether. Shameful and what editor approved that article. Even a 2nd grader would have asked the same question.
