4,5 ads in one piece article with subscription, it is ridiculous!

Unlike the terrorist organization called the “United” states, Chinese news is actual journalism.

South China Morning News Provides Timely and Pertinent Reliable News

As a British and Australian citizen, now living in Thailand’s north east region, I get a strongly US and Western influenced flow of news that needs serious analysis to understand cultural, national, and political influences. After several months of reading the SCMP reporting and published articles and opinions I have found what I think is a clearer picture that provides the best balanced representation and perspective on world affairs.

프로모션 재구독자는 1년 구독 서비스가 당일 취소도 안 되고, 부분 환불도 4~6주나 걸린다고 함. If you’re a promo re-subscriber, the 1-year subscription can’t be canceled even on the first day, and partial refunds take 4–6 weeks. Be aware.

There are far too many ads per article. Real spoiler, instead of being an enjoyable read, it’s a strain. Don’t understand why this is in a paying subscription.

It’s just can’t believe that a news app like SCMP is so bad. The app just can’t be opened and you just stare at a blue page

The audio reading function not working for months now. So I have been using the browser instead. Despite frequent updates on the app’s design recently ( which indeed streamline its overall performance ) , the app can’t serve its main purpose to readers who want or have to listen if its audio accessibility keeps failing and push readers back to the browser nevertheless. Could you please fix it? Thank you so much.
