That really sucks!! I always look forward to getting my new shirt.

That's B.S. I renew 3 years at a time and now no T shirt. I would think that a good customer would be rewarded for being a long time subscriber.

no problem - do what I did- different name, different address. Now all they have to do is figure out which new subscription is mine http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

Hey Jody whats up?
Heres my bitch, I Emailed them and complained and after 2 to 3 replys they got the order and I was temporarily happy, until that exciting day when the mail man hand delivered that box to the door with the return address of Larry Flynt Publications on the top and I was off to show wifey and low and behold when I opened it it was some other rag they push called Big Brother with some skateboarder dude on it and boy was I pissed.
Oh well now that guy on the shirt is soaked in Lemon Pledge and he gets to wipe my furniture along with the wifes elbow grease, and before you go and get upset it was a size Med and I asked for a XXL.....

I say that's a bunch of crap. I can't tell you haw many people I've givena ***boat subscription to as a gift and they've become avid readers and subscribers. They spend tons of money on all the products advertised. Shit, half the people on this board are responsible for a legitimate portion of HB's success.
If they aren't going to give T-shirts to us, the continued subscriber, they should at least put a referal T-shirt program in place.
I have posted a topic on this before. So what, from now on the people wearing ***boat T-shirts will be the river joeys? At least put the freaken link up on the site so people can buy them!!!

Damn, now I have to resort back to wearing work shirts to boating events! That sucks.

I have e mailed Kevin Spaise a few times, and always get the same reply......NONE!!! I think that this is weak that they advertise "get a free t shirt" with the subscription, and yet, I dont think that they have any intention of delivering. I am going to write a letter to them this weekend, and mail it off. I give the "Hot Boat" staff not only the thumbs down, but the finger on this!!! -DD out

WOW,this sounds familiar.Dont come up to this board often but glad I did.Two years ago we sent in two sub. at one time hoping maybe we would each get a shirt.Guess what,two years later got a renewall notice but still havent got 1 shirt.Last year for X-mas gave my brother-in-law a sub. and he never got his either.E-mailed Kevin about it few weeks ago this is the response i got qt;
"I truly wish I could help.Icant even get the damned T-shirts for sale....yet.Working on it.As far as the freebies,theres nothing I can do after this time period.Sorry."
Now does that sound like a crock or what!!!!!
seems like bad PR to me,but maybe I'm just gettin cabin fever!!!!!!!BITCH_BITCH_BITCH....

Don't get me wrong. I love my ***boat. I just think the worst thing you can do to a customer is promise them delivery on something and then totally and completely flake. Especially once it's been paid for!! If I did this in my business I would be looking for a new job, (maybe as a boat builder).

Guys... Before you come lynch us, let me remind you all that Kevin & I are your allies in this cause! We are in fact gradually making progress, having just recieved authorization to set up an on-line outlet. Please give us a few more weeks to build and test this system. I personally would like to have it up in time for the LA Boat Show. Peace! http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif

I mean that we are working towards making T-shirts available for purchase online. If you still need to settle your subscription deals, you'll still have to hound the subscription department: 1-800-654-2819

Cant blame you HB , when I e-mailed Kevin origanally I told him I didnt feel good about putting it on your own forums, but with it already going I couldnt resist.
As for hounding the subscripions dept. I think I'll just pay and keep my mag's coming.Stirred enough.
Man those ***boat shirts would look good on the NOT GUILTY girls though!!!!!!!NG

I have not had a problem. Like my other 1/2 said we just changed the name on the subscription to mine from her's this last year and changed from the po box to the house, and I got my shirt and it was even an XL like I requested.

Better have my size as well as my 5 year olds this year! xxL and Extra small!!PLease?!?!

Hey I don't know what the problem with the right coast is. I sent my post card in with my SO name two weeks ago and I got my tee shirt yesterday. What great service http://free.***boat.net/ubb/biggrin.gif Last time I signed up I did it for two years and ended up getting 2 shirts mailed to me twice(total 4). I think they just like giving them away to Left coast.(possibly better advertising for them if they think they will be worn around Havasu etc.)
