      Customers in the Lafayette/Acadiana region who receive daily home delivery of the Acadiana Advocate newspaper, a subsidiary of Capital Press, are forced to pay full price (well over $800 a year) for home delivery of the paper. This is the same amount paid by similar home delivery customers of The Advocate in Baton Rouge and New Orleans. However, customers of the Acadiana edition are expected to pay the same subscription fees as customers of the Baton Rouge and New Orleans editions while receiving far less news and sports coverage on a daily basis. The only difference between the Acadiana, Baton Rouge, and New Orleans editions of the Advocate, other than subscribers of the Acadiana Advocate having to pay the same for less, is each edition covers the local news of that particular region. As far as world and national news and national sports and box scores, customers of the Acadiana Advocate are denied a considerable amount of this coverage but are expected to nonetheless pay that full price. I ask for fairness in the price I pay or the coverage I receive.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.
