Time Magazine Customer Service Issues

While browsing Flipboard on my cell phone, I came across a Time article authored by a Mahita Grianan on 12 May [redacted]. The title of the article is "US Fighter Jets Intercept Russian Bombers Off Alaska Coast." The reporter seems to sensationalize the event, portraying it as a significant threat from Russia. In reality, this interaction between US and Russian aircraft is part of a longstanding strategic game, where both countries engage in similar maneuvers near each other's territories. During my time in the Air Force, I even captured a photo of a Russian Bear Bomber, a common practice among Jet Fighter Interceptor Crews on both sides. It would be more helpful if the reporter provided a more balanced explanation of these encounters instead of instilling fear in the public.

I am currently a Finance Professor at IFMR in Chennai, India, but I am considering a career change to mass communications. I have previous ties to the U.S. as I lived in NYC from [redacted] to [redacted]. Based in Chennai now, where I was once a student of Prof. Chris Sims, the [redacted] Economics Nobel laureate at Princeton, I wish to apply my writing skills with enthusiasm. I look forward to potential opportunities with you and have noted the company's cooling off policy. Once I find the right role, I plan to take a short break. I value spending time with someone special and relish the opportunity to express my thoughts. I am open to feedback and revisions to my writing. Contact me at my cell phone during reasonable hours, and I prefer remote work for undisturbed writing time. I eagerly await your response regarding my job application, as securing new employment is a priority. I aim to send my CV to your HR Department soon.

I have been a loyal Time magazine subscriber with a keen interest in societal issues and knowledge sharing. Recently, I encountered an issue with the Argus Leader newspaper rejecting my LTE submission that referenced Dr. Nancy MacLean’s book "Democracy in Chains" and drew from personal observations. I am troubled by the influence of the Koch political network and its impact on our democratic values. The newspaper's refusal to publish my [redacted]-word LTE in Sioux Falls has left me concerned about differing perspectives being silenced. I believe Time Magazine professionals would provide valuable insights into this matter, given the publication's support for our democracy. I can be reached at [redacted] or [redacted] for further discussion. Thank you. - Dave Wegner, [redacted] S Spencer Blvd, Sioux Falls, SD [redacted].

My son, age 12, began experiencing depression at 8 due to dyslexia and feeling inadequate. Despite the lack of support in the school system, I had to leave my job to get him the necessary help like tutoring and therapy. I've spent almost $50,[redacted] and made early withdrawals from my retirement account to support him. In sixth grade, he still writes at a second-grade level and reads at a fourth-grade level, showing minimal improvement despite our financial sacrifices. These services aren't covered by insurance, putting a strain on families like ours. This is a common issue affecting many kids, including those in Florida.

I have been a loyal subscriber to Time since [redacted]. Time has always delivered my magazine promptly, no matter where I lived - whether it was in Student Housing at Columbia University in New York City or in Palo Alto, California. Even after moving to Honolulu, Hawaii, Time continued its excellent service by following me to different residences. However, after moving into a Senior Home on Kalakaua Ave. in Honolulu, I have only received 3 issues of Time. My subscription ends on June 20, and I am concerned as I have seen Time magazines in the hands of residents I do not know. I wonder if there are any residents with a similar address or room number to mine. Thank you, Jean Y.

The suggestion for a Time cover story titled "Opioid Hysteria Turns into Medical McCarthyism" highlights the challenges faced by patients with valid prescriptions who are abruptly taken off pain medication due to the opioid crisis. These patients, dealing with intense pain, often suffer agonizing withdrawal symptoms without support. Many doctors fail to provide a tapering plan or guidance on managing the pain properly, leading to patient abandonment. Moreover, pharmacies and insurance companies may challenge or deny valid prescriptions, exacerbating the situation. This issue of denying necessary pain relief deserves national attention and could be a meaningful cover story for Time magazine. Your consideration of this pressing matter is appreciated.

The situation involving the President of Mexico, Trump, interviews with law enforcement, and various organizations such as the Varbiedoll mafia, cartels, Saudi, al-Qaeda, world embassies, Rolling Stones, Crazy Horse Saloon, and top-secret government facilities seems complex. Issues involving the CIA, FBI, embassy control, and mysterious events in different cities like Grand Junction, Las Vegas, and Hollywood are concerning. There are mentions of cults, illegal activities, corrupt courts, and a mix of various names like Jenny Lopez, Justin Edwards, Preston Edwards, Randy Curry, Tim, June, Joanie, Danny DeVito, Madonna, and many more, raising questions and connections that need urgent attention. If anyone has information related to these matters, contacting Valenzuela & Associates law firm might provide clarity on the ongoing investigations.

To whom it may concern, Assisting this disabled veteran could benefit others in need as well. Providing tangible evidence is crucial to demonstrate that achieving something believed impossible is indeed feasible. The decision not to charge me with disorderly conduct was illogical and lacked civil justification. Elderly disabled veterans should not endure physical mistreatment from caregivers at any VA Medical Center. I aim to set an example for all disabled veterans, first addressing the issue of bullying at Hunter Holmes McGuire VA Medical Center in Richmond, Virginia. The ongoing denial of due process by the police raises questions. A practical way for me to present my case is through a real-life example. Every hospital should prioritize establishing reasonable guidelines to uphold. In the event of administrative changes affecting information, it is crucial to inform the public. The VA mandates that hospitals continually update the public on the process for reporting complaints or safety concerns. There has been no prior notice, whether verbal or through written materials, warning patients against visiting the Director's Suite. Such standards aim to assist hospitals in implementing comprehensive practices. These standards should foster a safe, functional, and supportive hospital environment to maintain quality and safety. Director Brandecker adhered to an open-door policy, as emphasized at staff meetings. To prevent the repercussions of Ms. Edwards' problematic behavior, such as her physical assault on me impacting care delivery, and the subsequent manipulation for police intervention by spreading intentional misinformation, Director Brandecker introduced a novel law unsupported by current FOIA research. The lack of evidence backing Director Brandecker and Ms. Edwards' stance reveals the unfounded nature of their argument, illustrating the existing ignorance and absurdity endangering the Administration. Warm regards, David P. Shurland

Dear forum members, I am writing to share my distressing experience as a victim of severe harassment and physical assault. I have been targeted by a group using V2km Remote Neuro Monitoring, subjected to continuous electrocution, and threatened with severe harm. These individuals have claimed they aim to render me deaf, mute, and blind by the end of the year and even discussed broadcasting my ordeal online. Currently, I find myself in a public setting enduring humiliation as they continue their assault. The local authorities and the FBI have not been able to provide assistance, leaving me feeling powerless and isolated. My communication channels have been compromised, and my personal information has been tampered with, causing significant distress. I urge the media to investigate this matter seriously and raise awareness about the cruelty and violence that I am facing. This situation has upended my life, and I implore for support and understanding during this challenging time. Thank you for your attention. Best regards, Katie Pieterse ("Kat")

Hello, I am reaching out for assistance regarding a distressing situation I am currently facing. I have been targeted by a group using various harmful tactics, including V2K and Remote Neuro Monitoring. These individuals have threatened to cause serious harm to me and are subjecting me to constant surveillance and physical attacks. This group has been tormenting me with relentless verbal abuse, sleep deprivation, and physical pain, including electric shocks. They have even gone as far as stealing my belongings and compromising my personal information online. Despite seeking help from local authorities and the FBI, I have encountered difficulties in getting the necessary support. I urge the media to investigate my story to shed light on the severity of this hate crime. I have named the perpetrators as LSM, and their actions have had a detrimental impact on my life, including damaging my reputation and well-being. I am currently facing these challenges in Boerne, Texas, and San Antonio, Texas. Your support in bringing attention to my situation would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, Katie Pieterse

I submitted a subscription card but did not receive the magazine. After subscribing online and paying for a year by credit card, I finally received the magazine. However, I then received a bill for the subscription card I initially sent in, which I ignored as I had already prepaid online. Now I have received another notice. I would appreciate receiving a final bill so I can continue with my online subscription. If this issue cannot be resolved, I am considering canceling both and restarting later. The subscription is for Virginia Jacobsen at [redacted] Elms St. Ashland, OR. They had the address incorrect as [redacted] Elms St., which I believe has been corrected, but it would be good to double-check. Just to confirm, the correct address is [redacted] Elms St., Ashland, OR.

Hello, my name is Daryl Murphy. I am a documentary filmmaker based in Chicago's Bronzeville area. I have been dealing with copyright infringement issues involving Miss Oprah Winfrey, Eddie Murphy, Ron Howard, Touchstone Pictures, Fox 32, Warner Brothers, Larry Wilmore, and others for several years. My documentary, "Life and Times in My Projects," was used without permission to create the cartoon "The PJs." Despite others involved in my film receiving settlements, I, as the producer and director, have not received any compensation. There were allegations of fraud involving the defendant attorneys from Sidley Austin and Judge John Darrah colluding with the defendants. I am seeking justice for the unauthorized use of my copyrighted material and would like to discuss the striking similarities and evidence with you. During Black History Month, I want to highlight how my work was misused. You can contact me at [redacted]. Thank you.

Is the Time Magazine Editorial Board informed about Charles Koch's efforts to permanently shut down the government, different from the temporary closures we've seen in the past decades? If not, I recommend reading "Dark Money" by Jane Mayer and "Democracy in Chains" by Nancy MacClean, which provide compelling evidence on this issue. Are you aware that Charles Koch was, and possibly still is, a Board member at George Mason University, where Professor Bryan Chaplan submitted an article to your March 25, [redacted] edition? Did you know that students at George Mason successfully sued to remove Koch's influence from their campus, sparking a national movement? Is Charles Koch's influence present in Time Magazine? If this is the case, I will unsubscribe immediately, as Koch deals in propaganda, a field Time should not be associated with. - Dr. G.R. Schmidt

On February 14, [redacted], I sent a check for $20 in response to your offer for a 53-issue subscription and a free gift of an Ultronic Weather Station Clock. While I have been receiving the magazines, the Weather Clock has yet to arrive. My husband, who is dealing with health issues, was eagerly anticipating the clock and it would mean a lot to fulfill this wish for him. Two months seem like a sufficient amount of time for delivery. Could you kindly investigate this matter? It is truly important to us. Thank you, Betty S., [redacted] E Republic Rd A3, Springfield, MO [redacted], [redacted]

I signed up for a 53-issue subscription with Time that included a bonus issue and a free gift of an ULTRONIC Weather Station Clock for a total of $20.00. I sent my payment on March 13, [redacted], and have been receiving the magazines, but I have not yet received the promised clock. I would appreciate it if you could send me the ULTRONIC Weather Station Clock as soon as possible. Name: D. Wong Address: [redacted] Lombard Street, San Francisco, CA [redacted]

My current subscription number is [redacted]0 for Harold R. My account has been in disarray for about six months now. It all began with an incorrect billing for the renewal of an inactive account, which I mistakenly paid. Subsequently, my active account stopped receiving issues due to non-payment, despite the prior payment. After numerous email exchanges, Time set up a new account (mentioned above) and resumed sending issues. However, approximately 3-4 weeks ago, the issues ceased, and Time informed me that my subscription was halted due to a stop payment on the initial $75.xx payment. Although I received the credit, it was Time who initiated the stop payment, not me. I responded to Time's letter promptly, including a $75.xx check in the second week of last month, yet the check hasn't cleared, and I haven't received any communication from Time since. I am simply asking for Time to either resume sending my issues or refund me and cancel my account. Lastly, I kindly request not to interfere with the account I manage for my father-in-Law, Rod C., as it is a birthday gift for him, and I am the billing contact.

I paid for a subscription to Time Magazine via check on Nov. 7, [redacted]. Despite my check clearing shortly after, I have not received any magazines. After multiple phone calls since Dec. 27, [redacted], with excuses, a man named Randy claimed my check was received late in Jan. 25, [redacted], for $15.01 only. He promised $20 in reimbursement within three weeks, but as of May 10, [redacted], no check or magazines have arrived for John M. at [redacted] Cedar Bluff, Petoskey, MI, [redacted]. I sent a letter with a copy of the check on Feb. 7th. This has been a frustrating experience, contrary to our previous interactions with Time Magazine over the years. Could you please address this ongoing issue that originated from our order six months ago? Sincerely, Nancy M.

Hello, I'm Daryl Murphy, a documentary filmmaker from Chicago. I've been in a legal battle for 20 years over the cartoon series The PJs, which I believe was created using my documentary without permission. I am seeking justice and restitution for the unauthorized use of my work. I am determined to continue this fight until those responsible are held accountable. It's important to me that the world understands the injustices that have occurred. Please contact me at [redacted]. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

On February 5, [redacted], I placed an order for a 6-issue special priced at R15. Unfortunately, it was not clear that this order would result in an annual subscription. Without my consent, Time magazine debited my account on March 26th after receiving the 4th magazine. Despite sending multiple emails, the responses have been unsatisfactory regarding the refund process. The delays have led to frustration. I demand an immediate refund since I did not authorize any subscription services. Ashley W assured me on May 24 that I would receive an electronic refund. Sincerely, Alex Razos
