Non - delivery of newspaper

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra, 400007

I am preparing for competitive exam and because of their negligence i might fail in the exam. I assume that this is their racket to earn money. First they ask for the advance payment that i have done for the full year and now they are not delivering the newspaper....

The complaint is marked as resolved when a company has responded to the complainant, addressed his or her dissatisfaction, and came to an agreement where both parties agreed that the complaint is indeed resolved. However, a complaint can be automatically marked as resolved if a complainant isn't responding or updating a complaint for 30 days after the company has tried to reach the complainant.
