I just cancelled my Sunday only paper after not getting it for 5 weeks in a row. Their customer service was awful. I “escalated” my complaint which meant I got a phone call during the week from another person who said it would never happen again. What good is the deal when they don’t deliver the paper? I’m in Yorkville.
Debbie says
I too am having this very same problem with them in 5 weeks I had to call them every Sunday they credited me 1 time 3hour late delivery and I had to purchase the Sunday paper twice They use to be so great about the delivery but now it sucks can’t get threw on the phone will have to wait to call tomorrow
Coupon Maven says
When you call, ask if you can have your carrier’s phone number or contact info. It’s not always easy to get it from them, but if you can, then you can call the carrier directly. Your carrier gets fined/punished if they miss deliveries and you make a report of it through the Tribune vs. calling the carrier directly, so some carriers will prefer you call them to settle it vs. reporting a complaint with the Trib.
Another way to get your carrier’s info this time of year — see if they leave you a note or Christmas card one of these weeks. If so, they may leave their name & number in the card.

i KNOW. i CANCELLED MINE AFTER 3 YEARS, THEY CHANGED DISTRIBUTORS, THEY WERE CREDITING ME BUT FOR COUPONING THAT IS USELESS. AND CUSTOMER SERVICE IS BASED OUT OF INDIA
David says
The Chicago Tribune had the most unreliable delivery service. Over several years at multiple addresses, I feel like I’m on the “pay no mind” list. Why don’t they want me to read their paper?
And the customer service is ineffectual.
Ron Longley says
I have been reading the Trib since the mid 60’s and have had home delivery for many years. I live in South Bend and love the paper for many reasons. For several years I have had a variety of different delivery personnel, all have been a poor representative of the paper. Late deliveries, (in good weather) no delivery, etc. The present delivery person now has 4 routes I am told. My paper is here one day a week 8:30-9:30 and the rest of the week I get it between 10:30 AM and 2:00 PM. I have complained locally several times in the past with no results. The local manager once told me, “maybe he could run his route backward”. I am contemplating unsubscribing after all these years. I want a morning paper! It seems to me that I could get 4 routes done by 11 or 12 each day if I got up in the morning on time! It is shameful that no one cares about me, the customer. Ron Longley
Al Wolfenbarger says
why am I not getting Sunday Paper That I Have Paid for ?
Coupon Maven says
Al, have you tried calling the Tribune? (1-800 TRIBUNE) I post offer codes from the Tribune, but I do not work for them directly. I would recommend calling the paper and asking for credit for your missed papers, then see what the problem is with delivery.
leticia Hernandez says
Can I only order the coupon on Sunday and if so how many copies can I order and how much is it
Coupon Maven says
You can’t order just the coupon inserts, but the entire newspaper with the coupons is .75/week – you can get up to three delivered to one address.
Stephanie Re says
iS THE TRIBUNE THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THE FULL COUPON INSERTS?
Coupon Maven says
Yes, in Chicagoland, it is. The other papers have fewer, thinner inserts without as many coupons.
Melody Castro says
Can you please tell me when my Sunday delivery subscription will need renewal?
Thank you.
Coupon Maven says
Melody, I do not work for the Tribune — I just post the discount codes here to help my blog readers get a deal on the paper. I would recommend calling their customer service department or 1-800-TRIBUNE for that info :)
addicted says
Hi. Does anyone know of any codes for weekly subscription? I just got my renewal and it’s up from $4.75 a week to $7.50 a week. OUCH!
Linda says
Hi, I used the code you gave me last summer for the Sunday only Tribune and now it has expired. Am I able to use the newest code for the next 26 weeks? If so, would you be able to post the current codes? Thanks!
Coupon Maven says
You may be able to use it again. These codes are still current through the end of January 2016 (from what they tell me – they usually renew them each year.)
Lani says
What if I don’t live in the Chicago area? Can I get delivery in another state? I realize it will be mailed & be a few days late, but will they mail it?
Coupon Maven says
This deal is only available for home delivery in the Tribune’s physical delivery area (Chicagoland) — they unfortunately will not mail copies.
rALF says
Just did it this AM (11/16/16) and no issues whatsoever. Dialed the number shown above, pressed #1 for the offer, and done. Nice things about this offer, is that it will renew at the same rate. Thanks Jill.
lindsey says
Years ago there was an offer from Chicago Tribune for Sundays news paper available thru Jill. I believe Sunday was around $1 and you could get a Wednesday and Sunday as well. Is this sill available? What was the number to call please? Thank you!
Coupon Maven says
Hi Lindsay. Unfortunately, the Tribune discontinued this offer in February 2021. I am not aware of any others like it at the moment.
lindsey says
Oh thank you. Do your know the phone number to the specials when it was going on? I believe it was different from the 1800 tribune number. Thank you
