Asbury Park Press Reviews

I would give zero stars. AsburyParkPress does not allow me past the paywall, despite my account saying I a, logged in and active for digital only. I have called tech support and been routed to the Philippines 6 times and been on the phone for 20-60 minutes only to be told, “tech support will correct the problem within 24 hours” to no avail. I truly want to support local journalism, but the business model makes it impossible.

I love reading The Press on my phone. I’ve been a subscriber for a few years, but I just dropped it because I could never read it on my other devices. The last straw came a week ago when I couldn’t read subscriber content on my phone even though I was a paid subscriber and was advised to “call Apple” when the customer service rep couldn’t solve the issue.

I used to love AsburyParkPress , great location news and articles. They now require a subscription fee to view some of the content which is annoying, and they do that for popular types of stories.

My biggest gripe is a local safety alert just went out from AsburyParkPress , about contaminated meats in our area, but the Asbury Park Press put the information behind a subscription fee. That’s horrible and could result in harm coming to our community. That’s equivalent to a Tsumani or Hurricane warnings only being told to people if they pay to stay alive.

Public service news should not require money, feel free to put entertainment news behind the subscription wall...

You now lost me as a customer.

I actually prefer a hard copy of the newspaper. The delivery so so sporadic, I had to cancel it and switch to AsburyParkPress . The pop ups and poor design are a big issue. I would prefer the layout to be like a newspaper, but enhanced. Take a lesson from how great Golf Digest looks as an online magazine.

I always liked the Asbury Park Press because they were impartial and just gave the information. Now, they are cop bashers with “protecting the shield” and Trump bashers. Funny how when a cop does something good, it’s put down at the bottom of the page. I don’t see anything good about what Trump has done for the country. Lower unemployment rates or how high stocks have risen isn’t even mentioned. That’s not the purpose of media. I find myself just reading the obituaries now. It’s the only thing they don’t give their opinion on.

Our paper arrives at our door very early every day. However, I read the paper on line and find the USA Today section contains weeks old news. I cannot find hs sports other than football, basketball and wrestling.

AsburyParkPress provides good links and photos to current stories.
The problem is that there is no way for an APP subscriber to report newspaper delivery issues or to temporarily halt delivery. You have to open their website in your browser to accomplish any of these.

I moved to a southern state and still enjoy my home town new update. Keep it coming. I feel connected to my family and friends after I catch up on the local happenings,

Keeps you in the know about is happening locally. Extensive classifieds help you to find who, what when and where.

Older articles should be free and easy to read if there a few days old. Thinking about signing up 99 cents a month. I’m thinking it’s a scam and the price will go up as soon as l sign up.

Like the feature summarizing articles you missed

Wanted to read paper to become familiar with my new area. Best thing I ever did. I am really enjoying reading the paper.

Reading it online allows me to read while traveling.

AsburyParkPress closed out, won’t accept a new payment, needs 7 days before a new method of payment. This is like the second time this happened. I renewed the first time—now ya can keep it. So unprofessional.

They work at being balance and through.

The Press provides the best update newsworthy info. I get the paper Press daily but always look forward to the digital Press, especially when away. Thank you #APP

by Pigscz

Straightforward, honest, and unbiased local reporting from the best paper around. I highly recommend subscribing.

The print editions usually have more than AsburyParkPress and website though.

I really enjoy reading newspaper articles on my iPhone. Easier than the paper version i get at home where i can spread it out. Nice to be able to keep up with ghe news while mobile.

The Asbury Park press has kept me aware of local news on a consistent basis. I don’t care for OpEds so I stay clear of reading those too often. Opinions are just that and everyone has their own.

by Debippy

Didn’t get my print issue and I’ve been trying to view my account to check why and it won’t let me log in, even with a new password.

by GoHobo

Primitive relative to other news apps. Limited access to account information and limited ability to take action.

by GDK41

No idea how AsburyParkPress gets so many stars. It fails about a third of the time. Either only older issues are available or it doesn’t work at all. Terrible. It also asks you to log in again way too often.

by JMDlaptop

It is sad what Gannett has done to the Asbury Park Press. AsburyParkPress carries articles that at times are months old. AsburyParkPress on a regular basis does not load articles or content. Finding it difficult to maintain a subscription to this paper.

Just stop posting so many clickbait articles that make Trump people so triggered.
