Those frigging faggots automatically subscribe Pioneer Magazine and deduct money from me. Seriously, we ought be have an opt-in feature instead of the current opt-out. That’s what I fucking hate about Singapore. So many by-default thing. When I die they want to take my organs by default; when I am alive, they want to take my money and mail me some trashy Pioneer magazines. Seriously, how many people is required to scream right back to them that we don’t want to spend money on the magazine. I don’t even read it! It’s like a company newsletter twice as bad.
Pioneer Magazine is a monthly publication that the Ministry of Defence sends me. I read them before but nothing interest me. It goes into the trash within 2 minutes for me. My friends use it to fold into boxes to put in fish bones during dinner time. I’m just afraid it would actually spoil my appetite only.
So how do I unsubscribe from Pioneer Magazine?

Hey..If I am not wrong, the last payment before you ORDed, you have paid $14.40 for 3 years worth of Pioneer Magazine. I know because I just paid it last november. I would guess that you have to write to the magazine guys to ask them to stop after the 3 years. I doubt you can cancel subscription now since you already paid. Before you ord you should have asked those officers in the staff branches. Don’t know if its S1 or what. Anyway most of us just pay and throw the mag away.
by Kenneth (Jun 28, 2007 at 1 PM)I merely gave them (Pioneer mag people) a phone call and they asked for my NRIC. After that, the subscription was cancelled.
by viv (Jun 28, 2007 at 2 PM)It’s that easy? I’ll cancel it then. I don’t want to waste paper too. I don’t read so might as well unsubscribe it.
by Mr. Dew (Jun 28, 2007 at 11 PM)It’s friggin shit that they make us pay without telling us. So friggin gay. But PIONEER seems much better nowadays. Got food, got techie stuff. Contests are good too. Army stuff can be quite boring though.
by PNR_lover (Sep 21, 2007 at 9 PM)I am the member of the pioneer mag subscriber. Every month deduction from my monthly salary. But I do not receive the pioneer mag since sept 07 onwards. Either to my new address or old address. there is nil pioneer in both address. Could you please check what happened and return me my sept, oct, nov and dec 07 mag. Thank you.
