Can’t open e edition
I called this morning . I was told then it would be fixed within the hour.
They had an incorrect email for me. They said they fixed it

Resubscribed but couldnt open edition.

Finally canceled subscription and got a refund,
User's recommendation: Not recommended
Insurance policy
I called up up about having a life insurance policy through the star ledger about 30 years ago someone told me they would call back in a couple of days and that was a week ago. I only need that kind of information Mary lou Snyder 133 Waldo Ave., Bloomfield, NJ.
Extremely biased. As a NJ resident I wish I could subscribe but it’s not worth it.
Looked for NJ news from an objective news source. Unfortunately, this is not it.
For NJ news, Ill read the NJ Globe. For objective national or international news, I subscribe to Tangle.
User's recommendation: Don’t bother with this newspaper.
Just received unsolicited call to update my cc info. Since I don't give that info over the phone to unsolicited callers, I attempted to call
Very frustrating system. I don't give cc info on phone from unsolicited callers.
I then attempted to call the billing dept to speak to someone. Then redirected to "passed customer" phone number which I thought was inappropriate.
Bottom line, needed to fo it all on the website a d have questions answered by chatting. Frustrating experience.

Hello, my name is Jonathan Castillo, I am a grade 12 student at Nottingham High School North. I recently received a National Honor by being part of the Nationals Honors Society (news that I traveled from Atlanta, GA to NJ).
They sent me an official letter with all the information and part of the welcome speeches they gave me upon entering the society, and this letter is intended to be delivered to different news channels.
I am contacting you to see if you would be interested in sharing my story and I could send you the letter. Thank you very much and have a good rest of the day.

Verified ReviewerPaper not delivered last 3 weeks
Paper delivered yesterday. The first delivery in the past 3 weeks.
However, no delivery today. I have a disability and would want papers delivered to the front door. I cannot get out to the curb to pick up newspaper. In the past, papers are tossed at the curb or lawn.
Making pickup dangerous for me.
Thanks. Vin Sparano
Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered
Having trouble setting up drlivery
I was having trouble setting up home delivery online, because the site would not recognize my new address (in the same complex where I had been receiving home delivery). When I called customer service, all the rep could do was direct me back to the website.
Aggravating, with no resolution. I finally ordered a different paper.
Delivery issue
During snow storm paper was not in driveway but in snow pile. That was the reason for my call.
So no more snow but paper still on lawn , short of driveway? This is a car route not a bike route?
Star ledger was delivered much earlier today. Much appreciated
Last week I complained about timing of delivery. Timing of delivery has much improved since then. Thank you very much.
