Communication has fallen off and become more rude and I simply want the issues that I subscribed to in a timely fashion.
While I realize you likely didn't see MM's lengthy post about the ongoing turmoil in the Philippines before posting this message - according to the time stamps they were posted only 30 minutes apart - this comment is nonetheless unacceptable, as I sincerely hope you've seen by now (and in particular from Charon's remarks). Even during the best of times it's not at all uncommon for subscriptions to go missing for extended periods of time and for entirely unknown reasons beyond anyone's control - including ones that have nothing to do with holiday mail slowdowns or postal strikes and whatnot. I had a subscription arrive nearly three months late last year, despite all the others reported on here as having been ordered around the same time arriving in 2-3 weeks. Yes, it's frustrating to be subject to the whims of chance, but that's just how it is, and most of the time there's nothing MM or anyone else can do to change the situation.
Btw since no one's mentioned it yet: had you taken the time to read a fair chunk of posts on this thread, you would know that the tracking systems in this particular part of the world are notoriously unreliable, and it's commonplace for subscriptions to have landed without there being any record of it in the tracking info. It's similarly common for them to effectively go off the radar after exiting their origin nation. This isn't particularly unusual, either: every country has its own postal service, after all, and only a tiny percentage of them are directly synced with one another (and those that are are for the most part limited to countries in North America and Europe).
The more you know, the less foolish you look!
I also have had random long waiting... unless a real bad news happen, and you’ll know when that happens here.leave prepared for these eventualities.
