Idaho State Journal

When I initially started my subscription, it took 2 weeks and multiple phone calls to actually get the paper delivered. I had my subscription for about 6 months. I just noticed on my credit card statement that the rate when up. I logged in to the website and saw that the advertised rate is lower than what they were charging me. I decided to cancel. You can't cancel online. You call the number and it is difficult to get an actual person on the phone. I asked why I was being charged more than my original rate. He said that I should have received a letter telling me about my new rate. I did not receive a letter. He offered to put me back on my original rate. I just canceled.

The ISJ decided to publish an article involving an electrical fire at my home. Of course the journalist did not even try to contact myself before publishing the article. They put an easily traceable description of where to find the home, putting it and my family at risk of possible robbery or worse.

I called for information about an event they were sponsoring that night. Left a message and never got a call back. Not impressed with how they handle bill paying.

The Idaho State Journal is a great place to get your local news. And if you're looking for extra cash they have great paper routes. The employees are super nice here.
