| How Do I Suspend My Philadelphia Inquirer Delivery |
Calling in the Cavalry (Customer Service, That Is)
The most reliable way to suspend your delivery is by contacting the Philadelphia Inquirer's customer service team. You might be picturing endless hold music and conversations with robots, but hey, think of it as an opportunity to practice your best "Philly Cheesesteak" accent.
Here's the battle cry (phone number, I mean) you need: 215-222-2765. Their hours of operation are:
- Weekdays: 6:30 AM to 3:00 PM ET
- Weekends: 7:30 AM to 12:00 PM ET
Pro Tip: Calling early in the day might minimize your hold time. Who knows, you might even get treated to some virtual scrapple while you wait!
Tip: Read once for flow, once for detail.
Hold the Presses! (But Not Literally)
While you're on the phone, be sure to have the following handy:
- Your Account Information: This could be your account number, subscriber name, or any other detail that proves you're the rightful owner of that overflowing recycling bin.
- Your Desired Hold Dates: Let them know the exact timeframe you want your delivery paused.
Remember: Suspending your delivery won't magically stop the bills. You'll still be charged for the suspended period, but some newspapers might offer credits or adjustments. Be sure to inquire about this with the customer service representative.
Alternative News Sources During Your Breakup with the Inquirer
The world won't stop spinning just because you're taking a breather from the Inquirer. Here are a few ways to stay informed while your deliveries are on hold:
Tip: Read mindfully — avoid distractions.
- Digital News Websites: Plenty of local and national news outlets have websites (shocking, I know) where you can get your daily dose of current events.
- Social Media: Follow local news accounts on Twitter or Facebook for bite-sized updates. Just be sure to fact-check before hitting share!
- Carrier Pigeons: Okay, maybe not. But hey, if you're really desperate...
