How to cancel your Pioneer magazine subscription

No Thanks.

Via EDMW. Just go to this URL, fill in your particulars; type in some reasons, such as: you prefer reading the cyber version to save the Earth or your family is receiving duplicate copies; request to unsubscribe; then click SUBMIT. That’s it. Alternatively, you can also email them directly @ Pioneer_Circulation@starnet.gov.sg

Here’s a template:

Dear Sir/Mdm,

I would like to unsubscribe and stop receiving Pioneer magazine in my mailbox as I prefer reading the online version for environmental reasons.

Thank you and hope to hear from you soon.

Best Regards,

XXXXXXXX

I cancelled mine once I ORDed years ago.

Frankly, the magazine is a waste of paper and money. Help spread the word along to save the Earth as I believe most people will just chuck their Pioneer magazine straight into the waste paper bin without even tearing open the plastic wrapper.

Subscription is forced for all NSF at 40 cents per issue (if not I would have cancelled it immediately after getting my first issue). It’s cheap, but  it’s still money. Not cancelling it will be wasteful as I am not interested in reading news about SAF. Moreover, there’s the online version (slightly different) which is better for the environment if  you really want to read.

The Singapore government is moving towards an advanced e-government model, encouraging Singaporeans to do more government transactions and queries online. Why is the SAF always a few steps behind?

At the very least, the cost of the magazine should be absorbed by SAF, given that NS and reservist are national obligations for Singapore males who are rendering a service for the nation.

  • I tried to cancel mine long time ago. Not successful. Finally another chance at it! Did not even read your whole posting as I click on the link that you have given at ONCE! THANKS!

  • Glad to help. :) Please help save the Earth by passing it on.

    Actually, I am surprised by the high hits this post is getting. Looks like there really is a lot of people out there who want to cancel their Pioneer magazine, but did not know how.

    What a waste of the Earth's resources!

  • Actually as a Full Time Slave (NSF) you are able to opt out also - go to your S1 branch.

    I did that, only to find that I was resubscribed upon transitioning to Part Time Slavery (ORD).

    Grr.

  • I think it's too late. Now that everybody is sending in requests to cancel their subscriptions, I'm afraid that they will do something such that NONE of us can cancel anything.

    A sudden fall in a few hundred or even a few thousand subscriptions will look very bad on their record. They will not allow it to happen.

    I will bet my next Pioneer magazine automatic deduction on that :)

    Please get your facts right. It's 40 cents, not 80 cents. And not everyone likes to read their magazines online. And the online version is different from the print version - but you wouldn't know that since you cancelled your subscription years ago.
