Irish times cut off my 74 year old husbands subscription online and direct debit after years of loyal custom. Endless effort to contact them knocked back by user deterring hurdles and no replies. Now... See more

Very Poor Service

I signed up for one of their subscriptions for my elderly father. Cancelled almost immediately and still waiting for a refund. Customer service is impossible to contact unless you call first thing in the morning. I received conflicting information from each agent I had spoken to, one even telling me she hadn’t time to send a confirmation email as she had 10 calls waiting. Very disappointing and poor service. Will be changing newspapers for my father after this experience.

Irish Times Delivery Service

I paid for the Irish Times delivery service For an elderly relative. It was specified that the paper be left in the porch. The service is very poor, some days it was never delivered, other times it was left at the gate in a puddle and was wet as the plastic cover was ripped. It has never been left in the porch.
Repeated efforts to make contact via phone, email and Twitter have failed to get any response.
It’s a very poor service and I can not recommend it.

Really Poor "Journalism"

Really Poor "Journalism"
These guys are the epitome of poor journalism. Every single day they push agenda after agenda. Actually i do not think they ever write a story which isn't trying to bring forward some sort of agenda. Whether is the constant barrage of pro-LBGT nonsense. Or whether its telling the Irish people to take in millions of migrants. Or if its telling our people they must become vehement feminists or we will all perish. Its article after article of complete nihilism towards all things Irish and all things natural. They seem to want to turn whats normal completely upside down. Its really pathetic. They recently acquired another newspaper which seemed to have some morals, so now Ireland doesn't have any real reliable impartial newspaper. Maybe opt for alternative media rather than this "premium", probably NGO sponsored rag. Wish there was less than 1 star because thats what they deserve. Extremely poor service, far too biased towards their obvious agendas. I wouldn't clean up sick with this newspaper.
