Has anybody managed to renew their S&T subscription recently?
I have received several renewal letters in the post with the URL http://skyandtelescope.org/renew. That doesn’t work and the main subscription web page is set up for new subscriptions only, there is no way for current subscribers to renew. I have emailed customer service a couple of times but received no reply.
I have found this page: https://subscriptions.skyandtelescope.com/Renewals/ but it doesn’t accept UK formatted ‘zip’ codes!
I am considering posting my payment to them but even that seems to be inconsistent as the renewal letter has an address in Boone, Idaho whereas the enclosed envelope is printed with Palm Coast, Florida.

The American Astronomical Society who owns the IP rights have just renewed the S&T trademarks they own. You could try contacting S&T through their owners the AAS;

I had an email from S&T a few weeks back concerning their new fulfilment partner (i guess they mean the people that send out the magazine).
I’ll paste their message below – hope this helps…
