Turn one complaint into a collective action

PC collective complaint

A Collective Complaint helps you unite consumers dealing with the same issue, such as wrong charges, unexpected fees, damaged items, or misleading promises. It goes beyond a single review by growing stronger with every signature, making it harder to ignore. Once you reach 20 supporters, we’ll send it to the company to encourage a response.

Unable to cancel subscription

AI Highlights
  • - Cannot cancel New York Sun before Feb 9 renewal.
  • - Manage Subscription has no cancel option; support attempts have not helped.

I have been unable to cancel my subscription to the New York Sun before the renewal date of February 9. The Manage Subscription section of their dashboard does not provide any means of cancellation. I have emailed the NYS at their customer support address and have called the customer support phone number without success.

I will attempt to have the charge cancelled if it is imposed.

I paid $120.00 for a digital subscription. They never activated it. There is no way to find a Customer Service person to speak with.

The New York Sun - I paid $120.00 for a digital subscription. They never activated it....

Could not lodge a complaint about not getting what I paid for. Does this paper really exist?

There is no easily found customer service link. The telephone number goes unanswered.

User's recommendation: Avoid like the plague.

They don't answer their phone or call back as advertised

I have called for over a week and left messages, but I have never received a call back, as the robotic message claims. I need to talk with someone about an improper charge for membership.

  • - Subscribed to NY Sun newsletter, then unsubscribed.
  • - 60 days later billed $120; unable to contact; phone numbers unresponsive.
Updated by user Apr 17, 2024

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Contacted my credit card company and filed a dispute.

Original review Mar 14, 2024

I subscribed to the New York Sun newsletter and then unsubscribed. Sixty days later I was billed $120 for a longer subscription.

I have not been able to contact the company to cancel.

All phone numbers get no response. Yelp says other people have the same experience.

User's recommendation: Do not subscribe to New York Sun newletters
