How to File a Complaint with The New Yorker

New Yorker complaints usually involve magazine subscription billing, cancellation, temporary suspension, digital access, app subscription billing, Kindle Newsstand transition, print delivery, address changes, New Yorker Store orders, editorial submissions, privacy requests, or customer support delays. The strongest complaint identifies whether the issue is a print or digital New Yorker subscription, New Yorker app purchase, Amazon/Kindle purchase, New Yorker Store order, editorial submission, licensing request, or Condé Nast privacy request.

The New Yorker Customer Service FAQ says customers can cancel online, by email, or by contacting Customer Care at 1-800-825-2510. It says customers who canceled but are still receiving bills may still be in processing and can disregard additional notices. The FAQ also says customers can temporarily suspend a subscription for up to one year online, by email, or by contacting Customer Care.

The New Yorker app FAQ says customers who subscribed through the New Yorker app need to cancel through Apple or Google Play, depending on where they subscribed. If they subscribed elsewhere or have a gift subscription, they can cancel through The New Yorker website by visiting My Account and selecting Manage Subscription. The app FAQ lists apps@newyorker.com, 855-680-3077, and 332-239-6553 for support outside the United States. The Contact page lists help@newyorker.com and says subscription and customer service questions can use Customer Care.

New Yorker Store Complaints

The New Yorker Store is separate from New Yorker magazine subscription Customer Care.

It says customers can expect a reply within one to two business days.

Use this table:

Do not send Store order issues to magazine subscription Customer Care unless support instructs you to do so.

Editorial, Permissions, and Submission Complaints

The New Yorker Contact Us page lists separate routes for letters to the editor, fiction, poetry, Shouts & Murmurs, Daily Shouts, cartoons, press inquiries, advertising, permissions, and licensing. Subscription Customer Care does not manage editorial submissions.

Use this table:

For editorial questions, include article URL, submission type, contact information, and any prior response.

Privacy and Data Requests

The New Yorker is a Condé Nast brand. Condé Nast's Privacy Policy covers services and products across Condé Nast brands, including magazines and other publications.

The New Yorker Store also links to a privacy policy and Store-specific contact routes.

If a billing, delivery, or Store order complaint is still open, save receipts and support messages before requesting deletion.

When to Escalate Beyond The New Yorker
