Hello

Has anyone in the London area experienced prolonged problems with receiving their HBR copy in the post? I have heard that there has been a huge problem over the last 6 - 9 months of HBR's destined to London addresses getting "lost" in the post.

I have had problems with delivery since last July and I end up calling HBR up every couple of months to request the missing journals.

Although I have access electronically to the HBR it is much easier to read in a glossy format.

Also, could you please provide me with any alternatives to the HBR e.g. The McKinsey Quarterly etc?

Thank you

Cathal
