This article is very poorly written. It must start with a disclaimer asking a reader to consult with her doctor and also provide verified comments from a doctor for the claims they make in this article.

I have an ads-free subscription, but still getting the ads in between the stores. It is annoying.

Unable to copy the stories into my notepad...getting error

I have placed my prepaid order for economics times on 25th Oct 2022. I have not received first copy of paper yet, it's almost a month now.

I have reached multiple times to customer care and always they were saying we have forwarded your request to Pune team. No one from Pune team have contacted me on this issue and didn't even respond to my email.

I kindly request you to please look into this matter urgently and solve the issue as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you. It's causing me a lot of stress and frustratarion even after it's prepaid order.

If you don't want to give newspaper then please cancel my subscription and refund my money ASAP.

The Economic Times (Mon-Fri) for 6 months
₹390

My subscription was due on 26th Nov 2022. Hence, the company Times of India had sent me a email informing me of the same and further had asked me to renew the services before 26th Nov 2022.
I renewed the same online and received the receipt of the same.
However, when I try to log in, it doesn't log in. Infact, it asks me to again pay for and renew my subscription.

Am sorry to let you know that despite repeated complaints we are not getting the newspaper delivered daily.If complaint is lodged next three tour das we would get paper properly.Again the delivery would stop.if at apl delivered, it is given after 10am or sometimes afternoon or evening. Really fed up.we are from Wahal, Ulwr, Navi Mumbai

I have been a subscriber to times of India as well as the Economic Times since 2018, i.e from the very moment Times Group came up with yearly subscription plan. My customer id is [protected]. I reside at Dahisar, Mumbai, locality. I had been renewing the subscription regularly through online payments to Times group as advised by their agent Shri Sachin Tare.

While seeking subscription from me both Shri Sachin Tare as well as vendor Shri Pradeep had visited my residence explaining that the subscription is inclusive of delivery and no additional delivery charges would apply. Accordingly, both the newspapers i.e The Times of India as well as The Economic Times had been regularly delivered to me since the subscription started, without any separate delivery charges.

However, my vendor Mr Pradeep has stopped delivery of both newspapers ie Times of India as well as Economic Times since Sunday 6th November 2022, demanding additional delivery charges for the last two years.

Abrupt stopping the delivery of newspaper even though I have valid subscription from Times group would amount to deficiency of service as well as breach of trust and cheating.

I have been an annual subscriber of TOI and ET for the past few years.This year, my renewals are in this month of Nov and I had very clearly indicated to them that I am out of the country for a few months starting Oct 2022 and not to trouble me for the renewal and that I will return to India and renew.Inspite of it, I have been getting multiple call, SMS's, emails, whatsapp messages...damn it, dont I know what I have to do.I am in a different time zone and I start getting continous calls from 4am in the morning.Such insensitive and stupid guys.I will defenitely press charges for harassment.

I have subscribed times of india from Jan to Dec 2022 through online.My location is Bopal, ahmedabad. My paper agent is not distributing the times of india newspaper regularly. Because I have not susbribed the news paper from him. Today when I asked about the newspaper he was answered very rude manner and also said that I wont give you the newspaper. The agent name is DEVILAl, is looking for bopal area of ahmedabad. My name is E.Ezhilbabu, 11, Jaldeelp bunglows, part-one, Basant bahar road, Bopal, Ahmedabad. 380 058. My contact No. [protected]. Please take neccessary action and solve my problem.

The Times of India Newspaper vendor in SURENDRANAGAR, charging residents for newspaper price in excess of that mentioned on Newspapers. Vendor is charging 220Rs per month. Agency name is vashu newspaper service. Invoice photo is attached. When I inquired about the excess charge he said that we are only getting a high price from the main agency at Ahmedabad.

I have called TOI regarding the change of my new address but no one redressed to my complaint either through mail or customer care. Their customer care people re so worse that they are not able to pick up calls or make a callback. They neither respond to the mails. I have subscribed for a period of 12months . My mobile number [protected]. Kindly contact me for redressing this complaint. I live in Chennai and in this metro city they provide...

I am Naganathan Ganesa and my contact number is [protected]. I have subscribed for Times of India News Paper directly with the company. Hence, the TOI is supposed to deliver the News Paper on time. However, I am not getting the News Paper before 8.30 am and on some days, like today, I don't get the News Paper also. Inspite of several compalints this has not been resolved. Their local contact number at Chennai doesn't work or no one attends the call.

Hope TOI will take this compalint seriously and resolve the issue.

I paid Rs.988/- on 28.03.22. as new subscription for subscribing to the Times of India newspaper in Times of India website portal. . But till now I have not received the newspaper. Though I contacted many times through email and telephone, I have not received any response. My contact no.[protected]. I am enclosing the proof of payment.

I am sending this email hoping that you would help me to get refund of the money I paid.

Hi,

I have subscribed TOI online for a year and now delivery Agency (Person – Rajkumar – [protected]) is asking for delivery charges over and above the subscription which is 30/- per month and 360/- per annum. When I asked there is no mention about this at TOI online and the delivery charges are inclusive, he said it is not and go ahead talk to whoever in TOI. He was also suggesting that we should not get the subscription online and should be done through their Agency only. I think this is not at all acceptable.

I took this matter to TOI Area Manager – Devender Kumar Devangan – [protected] and to my surprise he is suggesting me that delivery charges needs to be given as TOI has communicated to them that this matter needs to be resolved between customer and Delivery Agency only. It seems he is aware of this fact that delivery agency is mulling unjustified money from the customer and he is hands in glove.

There is nothing that TOI online suggest that after paying subscription fee, customer has to enter in to a separate contract with delivery agency. This is really not true and I want you to confirm immediately as I need to take it up to the next level for this wrong doing.

It has become a routine problem of getting the delivery of your edition very late in the morning. The delivery agent delivers the paper at 8am or 8.30am daily. I have made countless complaints to your Times of India group but till now it's not solved. I feel now I have made a great mistake of payment of subscription annually. The delivery man behaves in an adamant and arrogant way and asked me to make a complaint to the times group. I can't argue with an indecent man who does not hear me. You please take strict action against the distributor and the delivery agent. You can even dishonour my subscription coupon. I have made the payment till 31st January 2023. If the problem is not solved I am thinking of changing the paper to some other news paper even I am at loss. No one is checking whether the paper is reaching the customer on-time. There is absolutely no coordination between your institution and the distributor and the delivery agent. With a heavy heart I register this unwanted complaint.

Paper wala not delivered the paper from Monday on wards because he has demanded Rs. 40/- per month and asked " jo karna hai kar lo". He throws half a paper every day

I subscribed for TOI Chennai edition from December 2021 based on their offer of free travel bag. Though more than 10 months have passed I am yet to get the gift. This is despite several reminders sent to their feedback portal and email to CRM Chennai. Cmmitments and assurances have been given in response no positive steps taken so far.

I have paid annual subscription of 699/- on 27th Sep 2022 and I should have received newspaper from 1st October. I haven't received any yet.

So called managers or coordinators are not responding and showing no eagerness to clear the issue. But for subscription payment they were following me like hell!!! Very bad experience!

Look forward to REFUND and resolve the issue.

Thanks

Yesterday I made online payment of Rs 599.00 for TOI subscription plan of 1 year. This scheme incudes TOI epaper on mobile app, without obtaining hard copy of TOI, which I was not interested at all.
In fact i am a regular subscriber of TOI for last many years getting hard copy of TOI daily at my home address.
Now I wish to switch to my original scheme of subscription i.e. obtaining TOI hard copy at my home address in mumbai.
I am ready to pay the extra amount if needed for the scheme which I am interested to continue.
Please help me to solve the issue.

Thanks and regards
