[Resolved]  Dna Newspaper — Non receiving of newspaper

I do not at all agree with the fact that DNA does not stand by its commitment. It is one of the best Newspapers around and even in Bangalore it will have a good run. I always knew when i subscribed that the newspaper would be out by the end of the year. And even if some people were told that they would get it in Oct, it's not like DNA is going to eat their money. They will definitely adjust it accordingly as and when the paper launches. So people it's best that we be a bit patient and wait for DNA to come out, because once it does i am sure most o[censored]s will prefer to read it rather than any other newspaper in Bangalore.

DNA comes from the Zee and the Dainik haskar group. How can anyone doubt the credibility of these big media groups. They have promised and delivered DNA in Mumbai, Surat, Pune and Ahmedabad and would definitely deliver it with a big bang in Bangalore. They may have got delayed beacuse launching a newspaper is no kid's stuff, it must be a huge mountain to climb and we as readers should support them rather than discourage them. Even i have paid subscription for DNA and i am willing to ait instead of cribbing as i have seen the way they have captured the Mumbai market, i know that they are a damn good newspaper.

DNA will rock Bangalore. I believe in Bangalore and also in DNA.

I don't understand why the whole fuss about DNA getting delayed. It is a newspaper that is going to bring in a new perspective in Bangalore. So if we are patient for another month or so i think we the readers will be the ones who will benefit. I have read it in Mumbai and it is fabulous and i am sure they will bring out a better product here in Bangalore. Also, they already have Bangalore news being uploaded in a section specifically developed for Bangalore on their website. The link for which is

I too cheated by this DNA .I don't have any News/clue about DNA, where they are placed ...

hi all...

i think it is a case of communication taking some time perhaps due to a wide range of subscribers. i am saying this because i got a mail from their id, replying to my mail, informing about the postponement of the launch to December apparently due to a change in design. in fact i callled the no. also and was informed that they are in process of informing all the subscribers. they informed that subscriber details are with them and the money paid would be enable us for subscription for one year from date of launch and we can also use the loyalty coupon. we should not get too critical since they have invested so much money. i hope we will get some communication shortly.

Dna Newspaper — about the delay dna news paper

hi
This is subscriber of dna newpaper when you lanch the dna paper. at time of subscription you told that on 1st week of oct we will lanch the dna but still now we didnt get any information about the dna paper when we call the phone it seems to busy.
we want immedet answer otherwise we take action.

friends
why are we gettting so critical about DNA not coming in at Oct. sometimes there can be delay. ZEE and Dainik Bhaskar are very big names in media and they would not let their brand credibilty get affected and they have so much experience in this business. DNA is coming to Bangalore after 5 sucessful launches in past. today, they are read and respected in all the 5 cities. my friend from Bombay speak about DNA's quality in news reporting. In fact also, i called their no[protected] and was told that the launch is postponed to Dec and our details are with them and the subscription will start from date of launch for next one year, due to some design upgradation. so, we should stop getting worried. they are informing the subscribers. let us have some patience to get a high quality newspaper. I, for one, am eagerly waiting for the newspaper in Dec.

I am really concerned that what influenced your news would be if the agency cheats its customers for mere 300 rs .

I Paid for this newspaper starting from April (Approx) this year, and I have paid for cash in advance
But somehow or other reason I did not get any newspaper delivered at home for first 2 months, later
after checking the delivery man he started giving newspaper but on irregular basis (17 days in month)
but he came on August 1st and ask for the coupon for May/June/July which I resisted since he did not deliver
He abused me and shouted at my door to pay all coupon as this is DNA trick to cheat people not his fault as newspaper did not come from DNA.
later he came in my absence and took all booklet of coupon from my aged mother.

I have few concerns

1> Why do they have a promotion scheme which they cant handle
2> Why do we pay for the service which we did not get (if i have paid in advance against Coupon then its my wish not to give coupons against service)
3> why do i have to give all booklet in advance fo coming month since i am already not satisfy with the services (2 Months 17 days without Newspaper)
4> How can they send goons people to customer doorstep( or they deliberately hire these people as u know ur service)
5> if they wish to earn 300 rs from everyone they should beg for it (i can pay 600 also)
but DO NOT CHEAT people or or ABUSE MY RIGHTS as a Customer

absolutely irresponsible and taking people for a ride . they know we cant complain about the 8 free days of paper they had promised adn no court/ authority can do anything that is free. so we'll settle down for the Rs 300 worth fo newpaper adn hope it comes.
by the way their behaviour and lack of interest of the local paper fellows go- it seems very6 likely that we are in trouble adn are better off being resigned to the truth- "Rs 300 was not OURS"

I am from Bangalore, I have made my one year subscription fees, and as per words i was supposed to receive the Newspaper from 1st September. But till now i haven't received any Newspaper. I haven’t received any confirmation till today nor receiving a single news paper from your end. No any phone call i received.

Can you mail me back, and confirm me whether are you published the paper not.

The hackers who came near my home for subscription of DNA news paper told me like u can use privilege card in big bazaar's and also as mentioned in the form given by them... But when i went to big bazaar and asked them to give me the discount by the card they said its not been activated and now they are telling it cannot be used at all...


What a cheating they have done to us...

Dna Newspaper — Vendor NOT delivering DNA newspaper

Dear Sir / Madam,

I live at Basavanagar in Bangalore PIN Code 560037. My Newspaper vendor's name is Purushothaman. He told me this morning that if he supplies DNA to me, he has been threatened by some people from Times of India that they would stop supply of all their publications to him. He is afraid of losing his business income and hence said he would not supply DNA for now. I have purchased your coupons. Please help.

Regards,

Mathew

DNA newspaper has launched a scheme of Yearly subscription in 299. Their representative came to my home and gave the details. He promised me that he will send the hawcker to receive the coupens but nobody came for that. regular hawker is not ready to give the paper without giving the payment coupen for atleat six months in advance. Then another representative came from DNA he sent one hawker to receive the commencement coupen He came and collected the commencement coupen but still we have not received even a single copy of news paper after 3 months also. Many times we launch a complaint on DNA site also but there is no response. DNA services are too bad I don't know how is the paper contents. I 'll suggest to all to not to take DNA in the yearly subscription. They don't fulfill the promises.
and commitments.

All of you please "Teach a lesson to these buggers" by not subscribing again to this newspaper ever again !!

I think I did the mistake by taking annual subscription of this so called DNA newspaper.
How silly these people are!!!
They are unable to manage the launch and distribution of this DNA!!!Really I stoped copy of time of India and now from past many days I am waiting to get a copy of DNA.Even two days before only I came to know that they started its distribution before two weeks.
I hope I will get a copy soonnn !!!
Anyvody can tell me where is their office located??

I could be neutral on this matter if this was not happened to me. I have subcribed for yearly news paper drop from DNA and they are doing it for last two months but suddenly the paper dropper has stopped given us DNA. This has happened since last week.
So, Yes it is bad service from them. I agree with this complaint.
