FAQs

Why should I subscribe?

Because we think SW1 Radio is amazing? Um, okay, also because subscribers get their copies first and it’s the most cost-effective way to get the journals. We discount the price 20 percent and pay for shipping. It’s our best deal.

Why can’t my subscription begin with the current issue?

Journals go from the printer to the bindery to the mailing and fulfillment service to the postal service. This lengthy process allows us to do only one subscription mailing per issue.

When do I get my issue? How long does it take to arrive?

SW1 Radio is intended to be delivered to U.K. subscribers around the second week at the beginning of the first month of each season (January, March, June, September). The big variable is the UK Postal Service, which can take up to four weeks for domestic deliveries and eight weeks for international.

What happens if I don’t receive my issue?

We’ll replace it. We just ask that you allow the Postal Service their allotted window.

How do I cancel my subscription?

You can do it through your account page or let us know via our contact page and we’ll do it for you.

Does SW1 Radio accept native advertising or sponsored posts?

We do not.

Does SW1 Radio offer paid social media posts?

We do not.

Aw, c’mon, really? Doesn’t advertising influence editorial?

Nope. SW1 Radio’s most valuable asset is your trust in us. Our editorial cannot be bought.

What about affiliate sales?

Some of the products mentioned or reviewed on SW1 Radio may have affiliate links, which pay us a small percentage if purchased. That money goes directly back into our production and does not influence what we cover, what we say, or how we say it. Again, if you don’t trust us to express our views truth-fully, there’s no point.

How do I pitch SW1 Radio on my Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or other campaign?

We will consider products in production and delivering to consumers, but we do not cover crowdfunding campaigns.

How do I get a job or internship with SW1 Radio?

Sorry, we are not currently hiring.

How do I pitch SW1 Radio with a story or essay?

Use our contact page. Due to the high volume, we are unable to respond to most queries.

How do I unsubscribe from the newsletter?

There’s an unsubscribe link at the bottom of every newsletter.
