Times Of India Complaints & Reviews

In continuation to my complain yesterday this is to inform that TOI has not been supplied today also.It is also to inform that I am not able to contact any of your office telephone numbers .It is very sorry state of affairs with respect to supply of papers for annual subscription payers. This has been brought to your notice number of times, but situation has not improved.The distributor is having upper hand. He decides whether to supply paper or not.You are not updating the renewals to the distributor ion time and may be one reason for discontinuity in supply.Hope you will take suitable action to resume supply of TOI immediately, C V NARAYANAN Mob.[protected]

Our New News paper Agent Mr coundappan ( IOB Colony, Vadavalli, Coimbatore. Tamilnadu 641046 ) started colletimg Rs 150 per month for Times of India News paper for last several months and when I enquired about him he said that is the price for one month Times of India subscription and even company is aware about the same .

He is providing a bill written in a white paper with seal .

How can you allow Agent to over charger from the customer.

Please look in to it and let me know your version regarding the same.

K.Rukmangadan, subscription ID no.[protected] dt.16.2.21 to 15.2.23 Agent name Arvind Porur, cello.. [protected] not delivered paper take immediate action to deliver or otherwise to move consumer court..

I am sorry to say that I am not happy with the dealing of Karan.
Since long he has taken the subscription cheque for TOI news pape Rs 999/-
He had confirmed from 10th September delivery of news paper will start.
Then when we complained on 12 that paper hasn't come, I was given the new date of 16th.
Today also on 17th when I said paper hasn't come, I was told that Karan said he is in Gaon & will revert when he is back.
What nuisance is this ?
Does he has the right of spoiling the goodwill of TOI ?
I request you to solve it immediately & my paper should start without further delay.

I am highly unhappy & don't expect such type of stupidity.
Kindly solve it ASAP

India being a country where major population is Hindu, it is such a shame to see that Times of India Gujarat have not been concerned to have the news of shri shankracharya's passing away and also newly appointed dandi swamijis - news in its TOI newspaper - it seems this no more a trust worthy brand anymore - this is ridiculously shameful.

I have been subscriber of this newpaper since last 30 years but now I NO longer feel to be a reader of this newspaper selling news and not any authentic news.

HAVE SOME ETHICS PLEASE.

My customer Id is [protected] jayprakash bisani yearly subscription

I have requested to change vendor address from aminjikarai(what you have suggested) from to Puruswalkam. as puruswalkam vwndor supplies in this appartment. Change flat no223 to flat no221.

The biggest problem is I am daily mailng mail, but no response in mail.
Though i have hearing problem I called but it gets disconnected in middle.

I am aged 65, could not come to your office. Please respond to mail so it make me understand you have taken note of it. I am your customer for last 4-5 years.

I paid Rs 1999 to "Times of India" online on 13.08.2022 with order id SCB23912715. but after 1 month on 12.09.2022 i am writing this complains that i am not getting my newspaper.

N number of times i called customer care and wrote email to crm.[protected]@timesgroup.com and grievance.[protected]@timesinternet.in with repeated 6 reminders, but no response.

Even they are not returning the amount if they are unable to give newspaper to me.

Its picture of consumer harassment. Strong action should be taken on Times of India to Hold this amount for a month.

Dear Sir,

Since 13th August this order is in pending for approval . But who is the approval authority why he is not approving this and for what reason?

Today my subscription is over and paper delivery stopped because of this approval authority.

Kindly do the needful.

Its my final reminder before my legal proceedings.

I had issued a cheque under the Scheme to TOI in January 2022 . The Agent has handed over the Cheque to Mr Vishal Gandhi of TOI. TOI has still not acknowledged the cheque and has now discontinued the delivery of the News Paper . I have contacted Mr Gandhi and have asked him to let me know the status of the Cheque . There is no response

Dear TOI,

I have paid money Rs 1950 on May 18, 2022 for ET Two years'
subscription. I have not received the coupons yet.

I have paid the subscription amount last month.
My subscription starts from September 1st, 2022. After so many mails and follow ups over phone I'm not receiving the newspaper. And not even a single phine call from the agency.

Regret subscribing the newspaper

My annual subscription for TOI is to end only by middle of Oct.2022 where as the supply has been stopped from 1st September itself. Such a disruption has happened earlier also resulting in in non-supply for 13 days.A complaint was booked yesterday with TOI customer care.The supply has not been made today also.The sub agent who supplies the paper Radha news agency.Kalidasa Layout whose Mob No.is [protected] says he has not been given the issue by one Pradeep at Gandhi Bazar.It is requested to sort out the issue immediately. C V NARAYANAN, Mob. No.[protected].

I have not received today's Times of India copy

Sir/Madam,
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.

Subscriber I'd CH[protected]

There was neither a response nor a call back from Times group.

Details appended here & also in trail mail. It speaks volume about my follow up. I hope to get a positive response for this communication atleast.

This is in reference to the F02020 slogan writing contest results.

I'm one of the Top 10 winners & my name was featured in Times of India - Chennai edition on 05.01.21.I never got any response or update from TOI post that about my gift voucher.

I tried reaching your Chennai board number several times, no response then finally I managed to get the number of Mr. Rizwan (Chennai TOI office) and complained, have been following up with him for more than 20 days, no proper response yet.

I'm extremely annoyed, if this is the treatment for a loyal subscriber, winner.

My relative has also won in FO2020 contest in top 200 list & she has got the gift voucher redemption link (Croma one).

When it has happened for other winners, how was my name missed despite of being in Top 10, where is the communication gap?

How can a big Corporate group act like this in customer service?

I hope, I will receive a revert & solution for this, pl fix it up.
