Q: If I go on vacation and wish to temporarily suspend my newspaper, will my account be credited?
If you notify us in advance, we will suspend delivery, and credit your billing period for the time you are away. Once you are logged in to your account, click “Delivery Options” and choose “Vacation Holds”. You will be asked to add “Stop Date”, “Restart Date” and other options for the vacation period. The lead-time to suspend an order varies by area. In most areas, suspensions can take effect in two days or less from the date you make the request. If you prefer, you can donate your vacation copies to students, through our Newspaper in Education program. You will be billed as usual for the period. For each copy you donate, four students will receive their own copy of The Forum. To donate your vacation copies, click radio button in front of “Donate my paper to Newspaer In Education” choose “Vaca Stop NIE Donation for amt” reason.


Q: What should I do if my newspaper does not arrive or if sections are missing?
Log in and proceed to "Delivery Options, then Delivery Feedback" if your newspaper has not arrived by the guaranteed delivery time (6:30 A.M. Monday through Friday; 7:30 A.M. on Weekends and Holidays). Also, you may notify us of missing or damaged sections on this page as well. In most areas, if we receive your request before 11:00 A.M. we can redeliver another paper or the missing sections to you the same day. If you would like a redelivery, call us at 1-701-241-5445. Otherwise, we will apply a credit to your account. Only credits for the same day can be obtained on this site. Credits for missing deliveries for previous days must be requested from a customer service representative or by e-mailing us at subscriberservices@forumcomm.com. Be sure to include your name, delivery address, and home phone number in your e-mail, and the words MISSED PAPER CREDIT in the subject line. Otherwise we will extend your account accordingly for a missed delivery that day.
