Never seen it with SWS but I've had other mags send me old issues (ie leftovers) and limit future issues . . . in your example in SWS eyes you're a September to August subscriber . . . in your eyes your November to October . . . call or email and thank them for the old issues but you expect the Mag to run until October '06.
My issue with SWS is renewals . . . I too just started up again (after hearing good things about DeBenideto) and I get a renewal notice a month later . . . WTF - called and made sure they got the check "Yup" . . . then why the renewal "Don't want to risk an interuption in delivery"
