So far, so good. The Hindu is working on building a stronger response system and taking steps to address most of the complaints. While there's room for growth, their efforts show a positive trend in customer support. We hope The Hindu will keep up the work and continue to help more customers with their concerns even better 🤝

Hello,

Your website login isn't working since weeks now. I've sent a complaint before but no response yet. I seriously doubt if you guys are even looking at the complaints. What's the use of subscribing if it won't work? If this can't be fixed i need my money back right away. I need a response soon. You can contact via my email below which is also my user id for your website.
