National Geographic…not for Kuwait?
I got an email offering a 1 year subscription to the National Geographic magazine for only 15$.
Seemed like a steal, so I clicked on the links and went on to subscribe.
That page, on which I landed had the offer only for the US & Canada.. huh?
OK…there was another link which was for international subscriptions. Great!! they think of everything! So I click that and Kuwait is not there on it. Strange…! Ah yes! they think of everything – ‘If your country is not listed click here for other regions’ So I click again and there is no Kuwait there either, just countries no one would want to go right now!!!…Is this magazine banned here.
I’m going to try writing to them.
I might be banned for very silly reasons. Good luck with your subscription
Stumbled upon your tweet. I work for National Geographic and wanted to let you know that we do deliver to Kuwait; however, the $15 deal is for memberships in the United States. A one-year subscription to Kuwait would be $44.25. For further information, you can contact the Customer Service office that handles subscriptions sent to Kuwait at:

Thank you Carey. I did that yesterday and I am waiting for the response. I really appreciate the proactive approach. It must have been some kind of error as all the other GCC countries are on the list. Kuwait is usually more liberal than most places.
It’s not banned… I buy it from SC often. Will be subscribing soon. BE sure to use a PO Box address… Home deliveries are (to put it politely) rare!
Sorry… I just saw the previous comment.
I used to get it delivered to my PO Box, which is why I was surprised by the absence of Kuwait in the list. I got an email from their customer service which said I could go ahead and order it through their site. Hope it works!!
