~NC - failed home delivery: I Called because of failed delivery, and after reporting the failed delivery, no new paper was delivered as promised. The customer service person sounded like they were in a room full of noise and said they could not understand me. I finally was so fed up with the answers I was getting about the failure to deliver my paper and the subsequent failure to follow up by the Times as promised, I cancelled my subscription. The customer service person then indicated it would take two weeks to cancel, so now I get to pay for a paper I don't want, and which was not delivered. Additionally, when I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was put on hold for almost ** minutes before the original person I was speaking to came back on and told me that the supervisor was experiencing high call volumes and would call me back. I asked when I could expect a callback and was told sometime in the next ** hours. Must be some major high call volume, probably because the front line customer service is totally in
