Post subject: Another holiday rip of
Organisation name: Sydney Morning Herald
Issue type: Complaint

Hi there - while this may me over an extra $1, the Sydney Morning Herald again is doing a holiday weekend rip off of non subscriber customers.

On Good Friday the herald will be published but with all the normal Saturday segments added like Good Weekend, Spectrum and travel etc. This will be at $2.50!

Then on Saturday the paper will be republished, only updating the News, News Review and Business and Sport sections. The remainder will just be a repeat of what came out the day before. Again at $2.50!

If anyone wants to read the news etc on Saturday etc we have to re-buy the whole paper again. Somewhat a waste of paper as well as a rip off I would say!

They have done this before and I think it's very unethical. Emails to the paper about this rip off have resulted in no reply. (as to be expected)
John
