This is a great newspaper. I mean, it's practically free for 12 weeks and it really has a different content from most big city daily newspapers. A lot of in-depth news (which I don't have the time to study a lot but still...).

Delivery is by the same person/carrier who also places my local Sacramento Bee paper on patio chair right outside my front door. This is a great deal. This thread is a big reason why I love FT: learn of great deals that surface only rarely.

They will almost certainly get clawed back if you cancel.

In a couple weeks we will see the flood of postings about points disappearing. Happened last time. Will happen again. :-)

I'll transfer 'em before cancelling then. Doubt they'll make me owe 'em 2K. What do the t&cs say ? I signed up 4 days ago. No points posted, yet.

Update: It took a few days for the miles to post and for the charge to go through. Now let's just hope they don't claw back the miles when I cancel before the renewal.

only issue is my brother gets the WSJ to our address, it states its per household or first time, hopefully they dont catch it. either way, Ill keep an eye on what they charge me and if I see anything, Ill call and figure it out.
Where do you see per househould or first time? Wondering if I can use my auth user cards for more points...?

I've had WSJ delivery since early Jan, 2014.

I can't believe what a deal this offer is! 12 weeks for for under $20? Wow. If I get points posted it will be fantastic!

Copies of WSF run $2.00 each retail. I comp my copy everyday at work. I've even grown accustomed to the in-depth articles. It's a great Nat'l newspaper. Incredible deal.
