Price Increase? Adios! Price Increase? Adios!

Not sure what the logic is behind the tripling of the monthly price--significantly higher than any other comparable e-paper--but I cancelled my subscription this afternoon. Very disappointed.

Painful Painful

Long time subscriber of the Herald Sun and safe to say this app is terrible. Painfully slow to download, constantly having to log in username details on a almost daily basis, tech support that is nothing better than a bunch of kindergarten students, and the usability of the app is horrendous. Swipe to the next page and no response, swipe swipe swipe swipe and it finally works. I'm also a subscriber of the Age app and can see how and why it just won a major international award, it's ease of use is astonishingly better than this junk.

Awful App Awful App

A month down the track and nothing fixed. Been using for near on 2 years until the 'upgrade'. Issues with iTunes, an increase in price from $7.49 to $23 and they still can't fix it. Come on Herald Sun. You have 28 days and counting until I cancel before the month rolls over. Today's ed in the paperstand wouldn't even open!

Pathetic Pathetic

I called the 'help line' (Ha) and they blamed itunes for increasing the cost 300%. Do you really expect us to believe that!!!! absolutely pathetic. Don't even think of subscribing at that price because the app is useless.

News Digital Media a RIP OFF!!!! News Digital Media a RIP OFF!!!!

After talking with apple senior supervisors on chat for over 10 hours seems like ALL News Digital Media Apps are running a scam through the iTunes Store, for instance The 'Herald Sun' digital paper to which they have many numerous Digital Newspaper Apps in iTunes, You download the App and pay iTunes $7.49 per month for the subscription, but when you download and open to read the paper, it's only like a subtitle page asking you to click to read, when you do a new window pops up asking you to subscribe via there own website for another $23.99... On my old Gen 1 iPad the paper downloaded and you could actually read it through every page.... And there Offical Website is only charging $3.00 per week for the first 12 weeks and $6.00 then after, so why do you have to pay iTunes at All????
