      I have been trying to cancel my *** monthly subscription over the course of the past few months. The New York Times claims they are unable to locate my account despite acknowledging that they have my credit card information on file and have confirmed various times the amount and date I was charged for my monthly subscription. Every time the case is "escalated," the *** claims to have emailed me seeking additional information yet the email(s) appear in neither my spam nor inbox. 4/2/24: escalation number ******* 3/7/24: escalation number ******* 2/6/24: escalation number ******* I am requesting a refund for the December 2023 to April 2024 payments that I made.

      The New York Times is deliberately discriminating against me. In the last few weeks I have commented on several articles published by the newspaper. They stopped publishing my comments, once I contacted them and complaint about blatant discrimination by The Times. It seems someone has taken it upon themselves to block my comments. I follow all the rules that The Times has asked its readers to follow when commenting on an article. This is truly unacceptable. It shows a complete lack of concern for my rights. The Times is a powerful newspaper and I believe the editors think they can do whatever they want to do and are not accountable to their readers or the public at large. By shutting me out they are violating my rights as a citizen and are taking on the role of jury and judge. I find this behavior capricious and dangerous. This is censorship at its worst. I need your help to resolve this.
