I spent days working with their online support, exchanging at least 10 emails trying to resolve the issue. Despite all of that, they were never able to fix it. Their system kept telling me I wasn't subscribed, and when I tried to reset my password, I never received the password reset emails. The problem was clearly on their end, not mine. Customer service eventually offered me a partial refund, so I assumed the issue would finally be resolved. When the credit never appeared, I called to follow up and was told the refund had been denied. I paid for a subscription I couldn't even use because of their technology problems, and they refused to make it right. Customer service is a joke. With newspapers struggling to keep subscribers, you'd think they'd value someone who was actually willing to pay for a subscription--especially at today's prices. Instead, they hid behind a broken system and failed to stand behind their own service. They've lost a customer for life.

They use tactics that are fundamentally illegal by not refunding your money as requested and refusing to drop the subscription. Once you sign on to them, they act like they've got you. I regret the day I decided to subscribe, and will be fighting to get my money back.

I was looking for news about Sonoma West Medical Center and this newspaper came up on the search…read morefeed, similar names. I read the one review of this paper here on Yelp the (one that was not recommended--couldn't help myself) and then continued looking up info about Sonoma West Medical Center as the two are apparently not related entities. I did read articles on the same billing issue about the laboratory in both the Sonoma West Times and The Press Democrat. I have to agree with the previous review of the Times--the writing is so-so, more a community newsletter in all ways except for the article about the medical center's laboratory. There it really does show a lack of professional journalism. The PD was factual but not accusing and actually quoted people involved, the Times was full of accusations but not substantiated, not professionally written with a neutral bias as all newspapers are supposed to try to attain. I'd recommend the Sonoma West Times for community event info based on some of the articles in the paper, definitely not a good source of news though. I know that a paper is not responsible for the comments that are written by readers, but, wow, some of the comments were not appropriate and way too political.

The newspaper does not check it's sources before printing materials that could be damaging or…read morehurtful to local businesses and individuals. Recently it published a headline story about a local tiny hospital that stated the hospital was part of an insurance fraud scheme with absolutely nothing cited indicating the newspaper had obtained any information from either the hospital or the insurance company. They implied that a court case was pending though there was no such thing. The Sonoma West Times also tends to cater towards a small group of wealthy individuals, vocal and ruthless in their intent on closing this district hospital that serves the area's poor and homeless. These individuals post items in the newspaper's opinion pages or blogs that are so incredible as to make one wonder if the newspaper actually has an editor. To wit: the newspaper allowed posting of an anonymous letter to the editor urging everyone to come to the hospital's next board meeting--it stated that the board was going to create a new property tax by vote at that meeting! Basic 6th grade social studies teaches that taxes cannot be voted in by a hospital board--or any entity! They must be voted upon by the public and passed with a majority. The editor of the paper knew this but still allowed the post to print. The mob that showed up disrupted the board meeting so badly that it had to be adjourned. The Sonoma West Times states in it's opinion and online blog instructions that no one may knowingly malign nor spread false or malicious information, but the newspaper has never enforced this--they appear to be encouraging the exact opposite by their own actions and articles. This tactic must be selling papers but If it were possible to rate them in negative integers I would. The district hospital was lauded in other newspapers as a hero in the recent Tubbs Lane Wildfire yet they struggle to stay open amidst attack by a newsprint bully. I used to be a faithful reader but now I would not recommend this rag for anything but birdcage liner.

The County gave me several newspapers to contact for that purpose that included the Press Democrat, a couple of others and The Community Voice. Contacting the PD was problematic for this purpose but quite easy for The Community Voice. A woman answered the phone took the info and credit card emailed whatever else and it was done. I thought it was quick and easy and the charge of $40+ is what was expected. It wasn't Hi-Tech and I couldn't do it on my cell phone but was quite satisfactory. I automatically received a certificate of advertising from them today after the 4 week period without having to follow-up. Good ole fashion service. Thanks! JL
