Applied for an annual subscription of The Hindu. Money got deducted from the cheque but the newspaper was not coming. Newspaper was supposed to come from April 1, 2016 bust till today(9 May 2016) no paper came.
I have called customer care more than 10 times and every time they say that they have escalated my case. It is very frustrating that nothing changes even after contacting the customer care guys.
