Hi,
This is Prasanna here
mobile [protected], last year I was promised some gift for my annual TOI subscription but didn't receive it, that's ok I'm at least received my subscription.

After my subscription expired probably same person Rahul Revankar (mobile number [protected]) called me and asked to renew my subscription he also promised me dining set which he'll delivery personally this time and I made payment for the same on 25th October 2020. Last Friday I called him he said sorry my subscription will start from Sunday and he asked me to message and remind on Sunday. I messaged him on Sunday but no response and today I called him he didn't take my calls also messaged him no response.

Finally I'm asking for my subscription to start at the earliest.

Do the needful.

Regards.

Dear Sir,
After lodging n number of requests and complaints too, there is no use. I shifted my residence from Nagarbhavi Bangalore to Kengeri Bangalore after paying my annual subscription to Times of India daily news paper. Well in advance i requested my vendor @ Nagarbhavi to stop and asked him to drop the same @ kengeri. Later nothing happened and dailed to[protected] where they in turn directed to Mr GURUPRASAD ([protected]) where he rarely picks of and gives false commitments more over his number will be out of coverage area nor busy or may not pick up. Latter once again CRM team provided [protected]( Nagaraj) where his number is totally switched off. sir pls better return my subscription amount after deducting what ever i am due to you.

So far as times of India newspaper is concerned, I didn't get the same for two following days and no information is being provided for this mischief.

I had requested to start a subscription of Economic Times Newspaper on my address in Hyderabad on 13th October 2020. I had paid 6 months' fees in advance for the subscription.
The newspaper delivery has not started yet. It has been more than a month.
I had filed complaint in their portal but all my complaints were closed without providing any resolution or even intimating me about the closure.
I also spoke to the customer care department but they did not help me at all and kept saying 'the subscription is under process'.
I do not wish to have the newspaper delivered anymore. I wish to have the refund for my money.
The amount I had paid was Rs.455.
Attaching below screenshot of acknowledgement of subscription.
However I was not provided any receipt for my payment.

This is regarding change of address i am to state that my ID is 29673785. I shifted my residence in June 2020. my new address is No 46, 5th Cross Street, Maxworth Nagar Phase I, Kolapakkam, Chennai 600 128
even after several reminders sine august 2020 iam yet to getnmy paper

Awaiting your reply.

I had subscribed for Economic times newspaper on 14.10.2020 by paying annual subscription fee of Rs.449. Subscriber ID- CH[protected].

Newspaper delivery was to commence from 02.11.2020 for 1 year. However even after a lapse of 20 days (from 02.11.2020) the newspaper delivery has not started.

I have complained multiple times vide mail and call but the response from customer care doesn't seem to bring any change.

I had finally written for
1. Refund of my subscription fee by cancelling my subscription due to deficiency in service &
2. Requested for their grievance redressal contact details.

Both requests have been met with indifference and NIL response.

The worst part is that the Area manager (Aravind [protected]) who is supposed to handle this complaint as per their SMS has not contacted me and his number remains switched off permanently.

I feel cheated and want this kind of misinformation, lack of service, poor response, indifferent customer care attitude of this newspaper and the people connected in this matter to be brought to book and dealt with suitably.

Hi Times Group,

This is to inform that I did renew my subscription w.e.f 01/10/2020 for a period of 12 months in Online mode via the link mentioned below.But sorry to mention that I my really frustrated with the service rendered to me as a customer.The reason for the same is as follows:

In the last 5 instances particularly on Sundays I have been getting Telegraph delivered to me instead of your paper.On calling up the newspaper Vendor Mr.Prasun Chatterjee-Bally he gives the reason that there is short supply and hence have to read Telegraph instead of TOI.Not only this even when I called up the TOI representative Mr Samar Sarkar who followed up for this renewal process is completely lacking any sense of customer handling and told me that I can complain to anybody in TOI and nothing will happen.

My question to TOI team if this is the level of service which I am getting I will think twice to renew next time and will also put this in social media .

Hence please treat this as a serious complaint and sent me a confirmation on the resolution done.

Thanking you,

Regards,

Suman Chatterjee.

Vendor name lalan singhsubscriber id [protected]..
Asked vishal mishraji why this subscribed newspaper not started when vendor approached you. Mr. Vishal says i dont have time to look small customers like you. Pl. Complaint wherever you wanted to. I feel amazed as times group employees reply such rough language and loose its reputation for such small amt. In lock down in our building times contractors were giving free copies to everyone. Now when already paid customer you are kicking and yellowing them .. Its amazing that to keep trust on such group next time if emplyees like vishal mishra is so busy to ignore geneuine complaints. If you dont need readers then why you take out newspaper?/

I had renewed by annual subscription of Times of India in the month of September 2020.. By mid October, the vendor stopped delivered stating that he had not received coupons from TOI group.. I called up customer care and was promised that coupons will directly reached the vendor in 15 days.. After 15 days, when I caught the delivery person in my society, he told that he has handed over the coupons to the vendor but he has misplaced it.. Again after few days when I contacted the vendor he said that he has received the coupons and will resume delivering TOI newspaper.. Again after few days, he has stopped delivering the paper and is not bothering to pick up my call.. I can't wait everyday at the society entrance to get hold of the delivery person..

It is requested to terminate my subscription and issue refund towards my advance payment

Hello TImes Of India Group,

I had several mails and complained to area manager "Ravi Ramchandran" Area manager for WhiteField Banaglore. I am not receiving the newspaper both of the subscription Times of India and Economic times.

It is pity to keep asking and no response from such a prestige group TImes of India.

Regards,
Manish Gadia

I have annual subscription for 1) TImes Of india 2) Economic Times.
The Vendor is not delviering the newspaper
Both NewsPaper 1) TImes Of india 2) Economic Times. are not delivered since 1st July.
During lockdown too, both newspaper were ot delviered for 2 month.
I have subscribed to TImes of india dated 29 Aug, 2019 and qualify for getting newspaper till 31 Aug. I did n't get the newspaper now more than 5 month. I have multiple discussion with Times of India Area manager "Ravi Ramchandran". His attiitude is very bad and unprofessional. he promise falsely each time that newspaper will be delivered and nothing happens. he always push me to subscribe the newspaper again stupidly. I had mailed several times to TOI at address crm.[protected]@timesgroup.com since last 6 month. No response. The Vendor drops the Newspaper in my building for other flats everyday but only promises to me

Sir,

Tel phone 28723267 installed at 47/4702, Reghar Pura, Karol Bagh, New Delhi is not working for the last 4 days. Complaint has already registered on 17th November. MTNL failed to attend the complaint. I have informed to SDO, MNNL Abhitab gupta ji. and also sent email to GM West. Now offiers are not lifting the phone providing to them. MTNL has become EMPTY NL.

While I was taking the subscription. They said there will be a laptop bag free with this subscription and still now i didn't received the laptop bag. There is always some days I am not getting the papers properly

My Subscription ID is HY[protected]. Already I paid the money on October 18th 2020 for 12 months subscription. But they stopped delivery of my newspaper. It's really shameful when today I called the customer care number they are not ready to take this complaint.

It's really very annoying and frustrating how such a big news agency like Times of India gives such poor customer service. I request the authorities to return my money or start delivery of news paper on daily basis.

I have paid through online on 20.10.2020 for availing yearly subscription of the daily newspaper from Times of Indian (UPI Reference No.[protected] with order form No. SCT10154866.
