This The Hindu is cheating all around the India, I was supposed to get the News paper from 16/09/2013 but I get excuse everyday I call the sales representative.

And the toll free number is not picked by anybody.

I had a shock reading all these complaints, as a cheque was already issued in favour of "The Hindu" (yet to be cleared by the bank). The Hindu representative had mentioned that the news paper would be delivered via a specific distributor in our area. Before opting for stop payment of my cheque, I spoke to this distributor. I was convinced that there were no such issues in our area atleast.

I suggest speaking with your newspaper distributor before subscribing to this offer. I feel these issues are area specific. The delivery of the newspaper seems completely in the hands of its local distributor. He may sell the newspaper rather than supplying to its subscribers. Also, it seems like there is no proper mechanism to escalate this to the publisher and get it sorted. In short, there is a risk involved in signing up for such offers.

I also have same issue. I paid the money for The HINDU @ 333 subscription but it's not started yet and they are not responding over phone or by email most of the emails ids are fake. It seems to be a big scam.

I want my money back ASAP.

How come News paper agency which covers round the world news coverage , is blind on this scam. The Hindu News paper scam or the News paper agency scam. If incase any of the bangalore citizens find this rougues asking for subcription, thrash them and call police. Lets stop this once for all.

I have subscribed for The hindu offer for one year for Rs 333.i was supposed to get news paper from 18th of july.But till now i havent received .The person who visited my house came the next day and given one bag.After that no response.The cheque which i given got cleared long back

I am Bhagavatheesvaran s also have the same experience. In my case the paper started after contacting help line and the bag supposed to be gift was not given. The help line person promised it will be sent by 21.08.13 did'nt come and thereafter i had no response from the company or the representative. I have already lodged complaint with consumer forum and the sheer shamelessness on the part of The Hindu is hurting. I understand there are many who are fleeced by The Hindu to augment their sagging circulation. If the whole thing is done without their knowledge then how is it that my chq fvg Them is passed. Is it also fraudulent payment.

I some time wonder why all these complaint forum etc, when The Hindu does'nt have iota of shame to respond

We may possibly form a forum of cheated people by The Hindu to at least show the world how reckless these media people also who profess ethics.
