The Daily Telegraph

They post wrong information and spread false accusations for the people without checking data and confirming anything. They articles creates damage for the people who actually should be helped. They never check facts and twist the truth

You can sign up with a click of a button but have to call to cancel the subscription and listen to the customer service agent trying to talk you into not cancelling.

Very inconvenient to cancel subscriptions, you’ve got to call up in business hours. I would not recommended. 1 star for The phone attendant during cancelation as she was nice and understanding.

DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS. They make it extremely difficult to unsubscribe- you cannot do it online, you can only do it by calling customer support, which is only available Monday to Friday, making it an extra task you have to add to your work week

The Daily Telegraph - A Dangerous Mouthpiece for Misinformation. The Daily Telegraph behaves like gum stuck to your shoe: stubborn, irritating, and hard to get rid of. They deliberately make it difficult to unsubscribe, offering no simple online option. Instead, you are forced to call them directly, where they proceed to ask intrusive, irrelevant… Read more

questions. Even after that, they continue to flood your inbox with spam – relentless streams of right-wing, uneducated nonsense.

This is not accidental. The Daily Telegraph is part of Rupert Murdoch’s global media empire, which thrives by manipulating and frightening the less informed. Murdoch’s model is clear: weaponise misinformation to profit from fear and division. We can already see the devastating results in the United States, where Murdoch’s Fox News has played a major role in pushing the country toward political extremism and near civil war.

In Australia, The Daily Telegraph follows the same blueprint. Its purpose is not to inform or educate, but to keep Australians misinformed and divided, reinforcing ignorance through sensationalism and political bias. It deliberately preys on vulnerable audiences, undermining critical thinking and eroding the foundations of an informed, healthy democracy.

This so-called "news" outlet is not just bad journalism; it is dangerous. Australians must recognize The Daily Telegraph and similar Murdoch outlets for what they are: instruments of mass manipulation designed to serve the interests of a few at the expense of the many.

Misleading Subscription Terms & Organized Scam: Appalling Customer Service & Refuse to Refund - Avoid At All Costs – I am extremely frustrated with the Daily Telegraph and their most misleading subscription terms. After unsubscribing using a mobile number they provide via SMS on the day I first subscribed, I mistakenly believed my subscription was cancelled, as I was never clearly informed that unsubscribing via SMS would ONLY stop marketing messages, not the… Read more

subscription itself. This is not only confusing but feels like a deliberate strategy to mislead and ultimately defraud customers. When I reached out to customer service to resolve the issue upon becoming aware that my account has been charged $32, they confirmed my subscription was still active and I was charged despite my attempts to cancel. I provided clear evidence of my efforts to unsubscribe and cancel my account, but they insisted I needed to make a phone call to complete the cancellation — no instructions were given when I unsubscribed. After multiple attempts for a full refund, they refused, citing, ambiguous terms and conditions. Despite spending over an hour on the phone with an unsympathetic customer support representative, I was only offered a pro-rata refund of $15.00, which I declined. The terms are ambiguous, and nowhere was it made clear that unsubscribing from marketing communications wouldn’t cancel my subscription. Nowadays, most subscription services offer a simple way to manage and cancel accounts online without needing a phone call or email. The fact that this company has made the process so unnecessarily difficult is frustrating and wrong. I insisted on a full refund and warned them I would escalate the matter to the relevant authorities and share my experience publicly if it wasn’t resolved quickly. Their third response continued to try to persuade me to accept their unclear terms, suggesting they have no intention of offering a full refund. This practice is unfair and unacceptable. I strongly urge others to be cautious of this company’s deceptive practices and their convoluted cancellation process. I will be reporting this issue to the relevant consumer protection agencies, as this behaviour should not be tolerated.

mind poisoning garbage – utter mind poisoning garbage. I know people who swallow it's crap and are worse people for it. My father used to call it chip wrapper which is all it's paper version was good for. Read the toilet paper - you would be better informed.

Forces you to call up to cancel a subscription – How is it not illegal to not offer a way to cancel a subscription via the same channel you started it? If I can sign up to pay you online why don't you have the technology for me to stop paying you online? Thieves.

Gutter Reporting Tabloid Trash – The standard of reporting and outright bias displayed in this tabloid tag is atrocious. Tried to cancel my subscription and they were very pushy. I explicitly told them I did not want this being delivered to my email inbox, but they still kept coming. I don’t know why anyone would think that this rag would be a source of legitimate news, I honestly don’t know how this ‘newspaper’ gets away with what they do.

Scamm – This website needs to be shut down, biggest scam. Made an account just to see 1 article then when I signed in the artical was non existent! Then tried to cancel subscription and has just been the biggest stuff around. Why hasn't this website been shut down already!

Money eating scam – Money eating Scam. Giving paid news possibly getting rewards from someone . Hidden clauses in terms and conditions that it can scam subscribers money. Stay away

My rating is 0 – Just because I can’t give 0 rating , my rating is 1 . Absolute scam when they advertise 4$ for 4 weeks but take your 32 dollars within 2 nd week itself… you can subscribe online but can’t cancel online… what a joke . And big time paid and fake news ‼️ alert. Big shame ‼️

Terrible and borderline criminal how hard they make it to cancel subscription – Borderline criminal how hard they make it to cancel. Can't do online. Called the number and it was not even active for a few hours? Had to call again a day later. Avoid at all costs.

Subscribe at your own risk - They'll make it very difficult to cancel – Absolute scam - I signed up to the digital version of The Daily Telegraph. A couple of months later I went online to cancel the subscription as I'd stopped working and didn't want the unnecessary cost. After searching for 30 minutes I discovered the whole thing is an absolute SCAM as they don't permit cancellation online and require people to take… Read more

the time and call an overseas call centre. I eventually called the number, was on hold for 15 mins only to be badgered by the caller taker. Instead of just accepting my cancellation they wanted an in-depth reason for why I wanted to cancel, then attempted to reverse my request offering half price subscription, then offered a free extension, then I demanded they just cancel the subscription to which their response was "I'm calling your subscription but just making small talk and trying to retain you as a customer". Finally (possibly cancelled) but no confirmation has been received of this. They clearly make it as difficult as possible so people just continue to pay for a subscription when they dont want/need it.

Terrible don't bother subscribing – Called them, and god just do your damn job and cancel my subscription. Bro yapped for 10 minutes about unnecessary [Content Removed]. Its 2024, you should be able to cancel a subscription online. :)

Subscription trap – Should've read the reviews here first - so annoyed that I had to call them to cancel my subscription. However, they answered my call almost immediately and were polite about the cancellation.

Scammers – Signed up for digital paper online.Was going well for acouple of months.Then they started over charging me.They started charging me $28 a week instead of $28 a month.I could not cancel online so I had to cancel my visa debit card to stop them ripping me off.They then hacked in to my new visa debit card somehow and there over charging continued $28… Read more

dollars a week I do not know how they got my new cards details but a very scam ful company. When I finally got it touch with them on the phone they tell me I must have another account which I do not.I asked them how they hacked into my new cards details they tell me it must because of my PayPal which I have never used before.They asked me to screen shot the over charging and Email them which I did.They have agreed I have no other accounts but would not tell me how they hacked into new card.Now they saying be patient they are investigating.But that does not help my children having no food to eat until they refund my monies.They have offered no compensation nothing.You would think such a huge company like the Telegraph would do the right thing but no they are a take down company charging there customers how much they like stealing struggling people's money.Stay away from them.

Tragic – Hopeless service. Messing up so often. This morning I received 2 x SMH's but NO Tele! Usually our delivery is in the gutter, on the road but today was wonderful being in our driveway. But NO Tele......just 2 x SMH's. When will you employ a " Real" delivery service??

Worst experience ever – Everything was going great when local news agency delivered the paper. Was getting it delivered for years. I’m surprised they still offer home delivery. What a joke !. Extremely rude customer service staff if you could call them that. They kept on deducting money even though they weren’t delivering the paper. When I called to say not getting the… Read more

paper they promised to investigate. Nothing changed. Finally had enough and cancelled my subscription after jumping through hoops and speaking to 3 different people they finally agreed. Who knows how much they owe me for all the non deliveries! Worst customer service I have ever experienced. Don’t waste your time buy it from the newsagent instead.

Ridiculous subscription – Signed up online for a $1 per week subscription. Tried again and again to cancel over the phone and they ended up debiting $40 from my account over the weekend, a time when they don't take your calls to cancel. There is no option to cancel online (which should not be allowed as you sign up and pay online), so you have to wait in call queues for… Read more

unknown times just to cancel. They debited my account on a Sunday morning at 5am, and I called first thing on Monday. They refused me a refund. Absolutely ridiculous.

Mostly sport with the occasional spiteful opinion piece.Wont publish comments that challenge factual inaccuracies – Well we all know this isn't journalism but has been abysmal unreadable for nearly 12 months. Long tedious articles about bikers/gang warfare interspersed with the most basic of commentary on a limited range of sports.

Terrible app and even worse customer service – Firstly they made me pay extra for the subscription and membership twice (asked for my credit card three times). When I rang up they said everything should be covered under one subscription. When I tried to cancel they were really rude (it was an old lady) and when I told them I wanted to cancel they said no you don't want to cancel and… Read more

refused... I've never seen anything like it. Eventually I finally got my cancellation after having to keep cutting them off because they kept wanting to send me emails instead of cancelling.

They should make it that you can cancel from the app and not have to call up during their office hours. So behinds the time.

Comments don’t load, they don’t care – For almost a year the comment section has issues loading & when it does you go to the trouble of writing a comment only for it not to load. So frustrating and they just don’t care or respond

please help – I di like the Telegraph but 24th, 26th and 27th no delivery what is happening. At least 2 deliveries a month missed and now have had nothing since 23rd December. The delivery service is disgraceful. Even when I complain nothing happens.

Home Delivery does not work for any Sydney addresses – Despite their constant apologies and promises to get it fixed, I have not had a delivery for 4 months despite paying for it. Their reply is always "Sorry, we will try to deliver it but you can access it online, anyway." Not good enough! I paid for a printed Newspaper, so why aren't your delivering???

To cancel you have to call… – And the wait is over an hour! Very cheeky, considering that to subscribe you just need to give your cc details on line

Signed up online and cannot cancel online! – They allow you to sign up online and there is no option to cancel online! Ridiculous!!! Avoid this newspaper!!!

Lost in space – I been buying this paper for 40 years. It is 2 pages of news the rest junk, never again will I buy this paper, it's a joke,
