Utah John Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Is anyone else having trouble logging into your Athletic subscription? My email/password don't work, and the system does not send me a link to update my password. I renewed my subscription for a year, last September. And there doesn't seem to be any way to get help without logging in first. Quote
boyst Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Removepaywall.net or archive today will get you all of this without any of these problems. You're welcome. Quote
JMM Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Yes same here, happened this pm. I needed to sign in through Google, I'm not sure what is going on either Quote
GASabresIUFan Posted May 14 Posted May 14 I had trouble signing in through the website, but the Ipad and Iphone apps seem to be working. Quote

BigDingus Posted May 14 Posted May 14 Just type in "https://archive.is/" before the URL for any of the subscription sites & you can bypass the required login. Quote

It looks like you need to create a new password for a NYT login and you'll be good to go. 1 Quote

It alleges I now have access to the Athletic and the NY Times. I don't like paying a nickel to the NYT btw. I am bundled until I unbundle I guess. Of course, I knew the NYT bought the Athletic perhaps a year ago. I am good w sports news, but don't like the left ward spin out of the rest of the NYT content. 2 Quote

I called because my online account, rather than renewing, was showing as permanently stopped. I called the number and the gal in the call center said that they were doing system upgrades that temporarily cancelled everyone's subscription. I was able to access the e-edition on my phone, but hopefully this gets fixed soon. Quote

I called, ended up with someone in the Philippines. Didn’t know they dumped the local customer service. I got my price to where it was previously at $90 for 6 months, and even with that, I may be done after this period ends. Quote
