This business repetitively will call your cell phone like a telemarketer with people from overseas begging you to pay a subscription fee. They try to lock you in and charge your card annually even if you're not reading their newspaper I changed bank accounts and did not update my card on file. They continuously call my phone every single day from overseas asking me to pay my subscription fee. I do not want it. I have canceled and I have told at least them 10 times to stop contacting me and they are relentless and do not give up. Do not give this business any of your banking information. It is a scam and I would hang up and block any numbers they call from. read more

Your newspaper company needs to stop calling me repeatedly asking to re-subscribe to your newspaper... I literally subscribed for less than a day just to read an article that required a subscription and then I canceled it, I don't even live in Florida, so I have no need to read your newspaper!!! and I tell them I'm not interested and that I live in another state but they don't listen!! read more

Don't get sucked into the digital deals for an online subscription to the Sun Sentinel. Our fee went automatically from $1 a year to $19.96 a month. In addition, we were charged 2 months at that rate in the first month so before I saw the credit card charge. Never will I have anything to do with the Sun Sentinel again. read more

Sun Sentinel offer a great deal. Digital paper , 2 years for $6. . What is suppose to be good, if you cannot read there digital paper, , because tryouts cannot open it. I have there paper for many years with no problem. Now since about September, I have problem with Uploading it, I have called , wrote many emails to them , and still cannot read my paper seen last week. Today Monday,I will let you know, if anybody get in contact with me,or just fix it without emailing me . read more

The political news coverage is biased. It down plays or gives no coverage to important Democratic events. I have had an online subscription for a number of years and when I saw that the No Kings march event was not mentioned either Sat or Sunday I cancelled my subscription. They take advantage of you when you cancel. The effective date of cancellation is not on your monthly billing date, it is a month later. read more

For 9 weeks, with expected delivery dates being Wednesday and Sunday, only one newspaper delivered.

I would love to get a daily paper and use the website but I don't trust giving them my credit card information due to previous issues and well documented horrible customer service. Can't write them one check for the year and they charge $6.99 for an invoice to see what they charge. No thanks read more

When I canceled my subscription I was harassed so much by their people calling to try and talk me into resubscribing that I had to file a complaint with the BBB before they would stop. read more

After all the back and forth I had on January 3rd, escalating it to a supervisor, being told that my account was cancelled and that my card would be refunded $79 for the charges I never authorized in the first place - I now see NEW charges as of January 6th in the amount of $34. I disputed the charges with my bank and I called the Sun Sentinel customer service number - to re-reconfirm, once again, that my account is **cancelled**. I provided the confirmation code they gave me earlier. They confirmed that my account was cancelled as of January 4th. So why do I have a $34 charge on my card from January 6th? Their answer: "We have no information as to why you were charged." My company was cyber attacked last year, and a lot of companies have been dealing with the same thing. It is NOT okay to be this careless with people's credit cards, even on a normal day, but especially not with the way things are right now. They have no information on a charge because they are being careless with people's data. I demanded that they take all of my payment info out of their system. They fought me initially, saying "we just won't charge your card" then it was "we'll take you off of autopay" and then they finally agreed to take my credit card information out of their systems altogether when I kept pushing. We shall see. read more

6/19/2023 I am not the only one rating that mediocre newspaper with only ONE star. The Sun Sentinel is the worst customer service existent. The newspaper hires workers from the Philippines to save money. Those people have poor English language skills and repeat over and over non stop our instructions. It is a real disaster/fiasco/calamity human interaction. Each phone call takes ages to complete. What a shame! read more

I only get newspapers on Wed & Sun... yet I have about 10 non-deliveries in the past 7 weeks. I've been told I'm the only customer in my development (75 homes... hard to believe). Consumer Affairs declined me filing a complaint saying it was personal, even when I described their deceptive practices of "double issues" and moving expiration dates sooner without any advise. Again, they renewed me 3 months early with no advise and have since credited me back on Amex. Although they now have me scheduled to receive papers until Nov (with all the missed issues), I told them to cancel, even though I'm losing money. I can't take the incompetence any more. read more

They will double the subscription price without informing you. It starts at $7 weekly then jumps to $40 without warning.

In all my years as an Elite Yelper, I don't believe I have ever given one star. This rating has NOTHING to do with the paper quality which I like. This review is on their customer relations and delivery. I subscribe to the paper Wednesday & Sunday, and I have not received a delivery since June 15. That is 5 weeks ago. I have emailed and called the paper numerous times. I have spoken to at least one supervisor. I even tried to email to editor-in-chief with no response. I know there are labor shortages in many areas, but this is ridiculous. I have subscribed to the paper for 20 years, and I may just need to cancel my subscription and just buy it at the store, or maybe try the Miami Herald, Broward edition. read more

If I could give this paper zero stars that would be better. Never in all my life have I experienced such horrible customer service. I ordered a paper to be delivered to my new home starting December 1. There was no paper and I called - they had the wrong address. I changed it, they said they took care of it and no paper the next day. I called again,. And again. And again. And again. And again. And again. Every day they still had the address wrong. Then they said I hadn't paid. So I paid. They were quick to process that with no problem. Then still no paper. Still after 7 days they have the incorrect address. They tried to convince men to take a better deal and give them another chance. I did. No deal. Still have the wrong address and no paper. THEY SUCK. I had better see the refund in my account or I will report to thee BBB. This was such a frustrating transaction. The customer service is farmed out and I hate saying that I could barely understand their representatives, but I couldn't. It was maddening. DO NOT EVER SUBCRIBE TO THIS PAPER. IT'S A NIGHTMARE YOU CAN"T WAKE UP FROM. read more

Signed up for a promo deal to read about miami sports. I entered my CC info, it was processed, but i was unable to create an account. I saw my CC was charged so i called and got someone with such a thick accent i could barely understand her. I was told that even though I was charged for the subscription today, the account would not be active for at least 2 days. Who does business like that? Charge me today for something I MAY be able to access in the future??? No way! Called and asked for a refund... will be surprised if they do it at all without me having to call back. Will never even attempt to do business with the Sun Sentinel again... Life is too short read more

Horrible service...3 weeks no paper....Customer Service sucks also. Save the aggravation...go out a buy yr paper! read more

For the past two year we have been enjoying the Saturday and Sunday paper each weekend with no delivery problems. The allure of getting the paper with all those money saving coupons, events, and the FTL Magazine that is inside with the Saturday paper came along when seeing a Groupon Deal. With the coupons alone that come each week you will quickly earn your $10 back for the 1 year subscription! They also have a 2 year subscription for only $20 and the deal is still on the site. With moving three times in the two years, the transaction of changing your address is very simple and easy. With my most recent move I simply went onto their website and filled out a quick change of address form. The next day I received a call from the Sun Sentinel to verify and confirm my new address then that very next weekend we received our paper! Customer service is helpful and efficient making my experience with them continue on. Equally, our paper has always arrived in great condition and placed in front of our door without any wear and tear during the delivery process. They have hold and stop options for your paper as well if you are going out of town or will be gone for an extended amount of time; all you need to do it notify them. The Sun Sentinel is a reliable and great paper delivered prompt to your doorstep! read more

Sun-Sentinel - Print Media Near Me - Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Worst customer service ever. Even for Florida. Ordered a few copies of old paper because a certain article was posted there. Sent me papers without article because it was in a "special" section. Sorry for inconvenience, nothing we can do. Whatever, I hope they go bankrupt soon. Charge back is your friend ! read more

I've been a Sun Sentinel subscriber for over 20 years and have never experienced customer service this awful. If I could give them a minus 5 rating I would. I have a paid subscription that includes e-edition. The e-edition stopped opening 3 weeks ago. Kept getting a message that I reached a free article limit and offering a 6-month subscription @ $1. Then the same message became $1 for 1 year. Today, I received the same message $4 for 1 year!!! In the meantime, I could never access the e-edition that had already paid for. Contacted their foreign based 'customer service' six (6) times and wrote several online requests. They were always very apologetic and promised to escalate the problem and have it resolved within 24-48 hours. That was 3 weeks ago and nothing has been done. With all this wasted time and frustration, I have given up and will be canceling with the next renewal. Just to add insult to injury, I had subscribed for their promotion rate of $27.42 for 26 weeks billed each 13 weeks. I just received an invoice for the second term of this promo at $45.25. What a messed-up organization this has become!!!!! read more

I paid $12 for digital and Sunday, never got either. Now they call constantly every day for me to sign up. They are desperate.

I signed up with this paper to support it and to support its reporters. But it was such a pain to discontinue that I will never again do it. Their a dying breed and they are contributing to it with these tactics. I tried canceling on line and couldn't. I called and the call dropped. I called again and couldn't understand what the hell the young lady was saying. So all I said the entire time was cancel while she kept talking and trying to get me not to cancel. GOOD RIDENS SUN SENTINEL. YOU AND THE MIAMI HERALD USE THE SAME CRAPPIE TATICS TO PREVENT PEOPLE FROM CANCELING AND BOTH OF YOU ARE ON BORROWED TIME read more

Blocked my digital only subscription. Trying to force me to buy delivery + digital subscription. Called them. After 1 hour they still didn't fix problem. Requested refund for services they sold me but are not providing. They refused refund. I canceled my subscription effective September 5, but still don't have access. Gey your news somewhere else. Don't waste your money on this company. read more

Having been a subscriber to Sunsentinal for many many years I have a complaint. When they changed to a third-party vendor for delivery, my service got very bad. For a given month, I get the paper on time approximate 3 - 5 times a month. Most of the time it comes after 8:00 am and the other times it comes after 9:00 am or later. I complained to the better business bureau and the paper's response was not acceptable. They didn't even post the complaint on the BBB website. I enjoy getting up in the morning and reading the paper while I eat breakfast. However, when it gets to my house after 9:00 am, I am already done eating breakfast and the paper is of no use to me. The paper is supposed to be delivered before 7:00 am. The Sunsentinal is now charging more for delivery, I'm paying more but I still don't get the paper on time. Why pay more for an unacceptable product. Very bad response from the Sunsentinal and it shows they have no grip on their product delivery and don't care if they deliver as promised. Very sad........ read more

My Mom subscribed on 1/15/2022. Paid in full. It was suppose to be 26 weeks of Wednesday and Sunday only. Since that time she has received one paper. WTF?? Every Sunday it doesn't come, she calls, they tell her "we will contact the contractor." Still... nada. So today when the paper didn't not arrive, we called an they told us the same thing. NOTHING IS HAPPENING!! You're basically stealing from a senior citizen! read more

Have not received a paper in 5 days which I pay over $500 a year for daily delivery. Spoke to a rep and a manager and they said it would be resolved. They don't care and you can sense it when you talk to them on the phone. Maybe we should all file a civil lawsuit. read more

I have never been so frustrated when looking for information on the web as I am with the tricky articles that the sun-sentinel places on the web then does not let you read unless you subscribe. Even though I would have been interested in a subscription to the Sun-Sentinel I would no longer consider them as an option or even credible. If you aren't going to allow viewers to read then don't post. read more

Even with a subscription and logged in the popup blocker fake paywall keeps activating while trying to read an article!!!!! Bait & switch crooks. Easier to disable Java or use way back machine read more

I finally cancelled my subscription due to their lack of coverage of the only local Broward county professional sports team. Sun Sentinel, does not even have a reporter covering the team, they use the AP to get their story. I will get my sport news from the newspaper in the other county, which has much better coverage of the team in Broward. read more

Bought a Groupon for 1 yr service. First few months went well. 2 day a week delivery. For the past 2 months, no delivery without calling for a redeliver. Super frustrating. I tried to cancel subscription, but didn't get far, since I'm "only paying 18 cents a week" what's the big deal? I have no idea what is happening with my delivery. Did my delivery guy die or quit? Sun Sentinel.has no anwers, but swears every time I call that they have taken this issue to management and the delivery service (since they have no control over the actual delivery service) read more

Sun-Sentinel News Paper is biased & opinionated "news?"; mixed with lies; consistent twisting of truth; leaving out important facts; manipulative and divisive. Makes sense as to why the only reviews they have are one star ratings which I gather would be less than one star if available. Garbage paper that has to be given away because the majority won't pay to read this terrible excuse for journalism. read more

It truly is a shame Yelp does not allow zero stars because this paper deserves it. First there are the usual delivery issues (missing paper, wet paper, etc.). Those are bad enough. Even worse is the paper itself; it's mostly just ads. Very little news. I find more information just by listening to the radio than I do by reading this paper every day. What finally pushed me over the edge was a mailer I received from them on my account. It was just to let me know that my automatic payment was going to be made, which would be fine, but I had been thinking about canceling and in the mailer it stated that to do that I must call them. This seems odd since I have an account on their site and I should be able to go in there and cancel. I called and my call went to the Philippines. Tribune Publishing, the owner of Sun-Sentinel doesn't care about keeping jobs in America, so they outsource them to the Philippines. Fine. Very un-American but not illegal. The representative who answered the phone verified my information, then proceeded to argue with me over why I should keep my subscription. I finally lost my temper and demanded her manager. I got her supervisor. When I again demanded a manager I was placed on hold and never spoke with another human. I have sent a letter to Justin Dearborn, the Chief Executive Officer of Tribune Publishing, although I doubt that he'll care. Their decision to move their customer service department overseas clearly shows that they don't care about their customers. Or about their countrymen, for that matter. I'll keep my hard-earned American dollars where they do the most good for other Americans, thank you very much. The Sun-Sentinel is no longer welcome in my home. read more

Paper late or not received at all over 5 months. Call center is if no help. Terrible way to run a business, both delivery and call center.

Like a previous post, this has nothing to do with quality of Journalism. This has to do with complete fraud that is within their customer service/billing dept. After much research and experience it goes like this. Sign up for a trial service. Cancel the service and they will charge you anyway. Call customer service which is a trainwreck & they say a check has to be mailed. When they do mail a check, it is not signed. Mind you, they still have your debit info so they bill you again. This time they billed me $50.19 for something I never signed up for. After more than ten calls, told they can't refund card, the check is in the mail (5-14 days). Never comes. Call again, oh it takes 30 days. Never came. Call again and no one cares. It is one big circle of scam. How many tens of thousands of dollars have they scammed people? I reported them and they are looking into their fraud. Buyer beware. Do not sign up for a trial or give your info. You will be billed til you die! read more

I have subscribed for over 10 years but they have definitely outpriced themselves !!! I called for vacation hold twice but still had old yellow papers piled in my driveway upon my return. Customer service is not good ! Price is astronomical ! I cancelled today after receiving my renewal for next 3 months for $96.14 ...ridiculous !!!!!! read more

I signed up for Wed/Sun delivery and have only received 1 Wed paper. I have to call every single week multiple times to get redelivery, and despite multiple efforts, the redelivery doesn't arrive either. It's been an INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING ordeal. I have called over 20 times and still remain unresolved. This company doesn't care. I will try to find another newspaper that delivers in my area and cancel this bullsh.. t . It's been nothing but source of FRUSTRATION read more

My Dad has a subscription and so I've been reading his while I am visiting Fort Lauderdale. It's a solid paper and that's not entirely because they have a good comics section (they do!). There is a good amount of local and national and even some international news in there. This is a good thing and in an age where newspapers are dying, it's good to see that this city still has a decent paper. It's too bad that they don't sell the papers on the corners any more. They still did that when I lived down this way, years ago. I get that people were killed selling them. Stupid drivers are the problem, not the newspaper vendors. Unfortunate! read more

Worst service ever. I have had a subscription for a year with Sun_sentinel, out of the year I can honestly say I received the paper no more than 7 times. Each time I called, I get the same response, "I will make sure you get your paper on Sunday." Worst Newspaper company to deal with. Not reliable . read more

I have subscribed to the Sun Sentinel one week ago....never got a paper yet!!!! Called everyday to report missing issues or delivery problem...am told they will contact delivery contractor.....even spoke to the delivery manager who assured me I would get my paper....nothing yet. This is RIDICULOUS!!!! read more

I, like everyone else, is so dissatisfied with them. My carrier quit a couple of weeks ago and since then, have only received the delivery on 2 days... I went to the better business site just to see and sure enough rated 1 star. They can't provide delivery services that you sign up for, have a bogus recording when you call "due to PRODUCTION issues, paper will not be delivered until 10am". This is bogus as I've always had my paper by 5 or 6am, until the previous delivery person quit. Am I to assume that the day my delivery person left, that's when they ran into PRODUCTION issues??? It's not production issues , it's delivery issues. In addition, the two times my paper was delivered since the new carrier started (??) it was before 10am.. I called on those days anyway just to see and that same recording was on.. it's just to cover their behind!! Then you never get the paper by 10, even though you requested redelivery... if you call after 10, they say they can't redeliver because you had to call by 9:30am lol. So it doesn't even make sense.. then they say a supervisor will call you back within 24 hours, NEVER HAPPENS.. all this while dealing with the agents in the phillipines.. (a local company has to farm out their call center to the phillipines??) I am going to issue a better business complaint as well (which resolutions appear to be handled by the phillipines as well). In addition, I'm going to contact the state attorney generals office and file a complaint as this is outright fraud. If you can't offer a service that you are advertising, then stop offering it. My goal is to stop the sun sentinel from offering delivery services!! I won't give up read more

Just started the subscription on Friday, and missed delivery on Saturday and Monday. Sundays did not receive the ads. Customer service said it would be delivered but still waiting. What away to start. If the drivers don't wanna deliver then one of they go find another job. read more
