The Hindu, Visakhapatnam — Not delivering subscription paper as promised

Address:Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh

I am a regular subscriber of the HINDU news paper under Special subscription scheme. I subscribed wef 06 Jan 13 with half yearly payment of Rs 225/-. My Sbuscription number is [protected].The Hindu, Visakhapatnam. Renewed subscriptions on 24 Jun 13again on 11 Jan 14 for six months each. Post payment also, the local paper agent of our area not delivering paper and even he is not interested to give paper. He stopped well in advance i.e from 10 Jan 14. The agent show very much reluctance to deliver subscription papers. The hindu news paper officials are also not bothered to ensure the delivery of news papers to their subscribers. I surprise to understand, how one reginal general manger of your new paper can not have control over a newspaper agent? That indicates no commitment of your promises. I am not bothered about subscription money but not ensuring the promises made by you is only thing bothering me. Like my cases, there may be so many in the city not getting / delivering/issuing papers. This way your paper loose credibility among the local people in the city. Hope, atleast now you are requested to interevene about the issue and give strict instructions to the Sivajipalem agent to deliver a paper. Regards PM Patnaik [protected]
