Ads are Terrible

I’m constantly getting sleep apnea ads that are totally gruesome. Many of these ads are video ads with people appearing to be seriously struggling for life, blowing smoke, rolling their heads back and forth. Absolutely gruesome and disgusting. I wish I knew a way to complain to the newspaper. They must be in desperate need of funding to show these gruesome ads!!

App not allowing for paid access

I paid for the subscription but don’t have access to the articles on line.

The app doesn’t allow you to see the status of your subscription, and there is no support for getting service corrected
