    I got the 9/12 edition on 16/12 and am still waiting on the 16/12 edition. Last week they were immediately offered an extra week's subscription and referred to the on-line preview.

    This week it is more of 'whats the problem' and simply blame the post office. I asked if they would e-mail a PDF file of the missing edition, but they were not happy about doing so. I can understand that they want to avoid scammers e-mailing them around, but what about the phrase 'the customer is always right'. The on-line read is okay, but I can get more out of ESB for free.

    If they want us to renew our subscriptions. Stop blaming the postman and start e-mailing out the PDF's for those on your lists. My Mrs has Hello magazine on subscription and it really pisses me off that this magazine has not been caught up in the great mail backlog.

    BLIND ROBBERY is tomorrow's BN headline.

    It will be blind robbery for me if I don't get to read it until 2011

    Without the photo it could have referred to Huck v Lebedev, but that was more blatent than blind robbery

    I have responded to the OP on Boxrec as he has created the same thread on there and I saw that first. Basically Royal Mail are at fault, lots of post is late and we have made digital editions of the last two issues available for subscribers. There is little more we can do bar pray for the snow to stop. Pm me to discuss further

    Not long got home. Still no BN on the doormat. As a long-time reader I'm accustomed to it being late I just hope it does arrive.

    Which BN are you referring to:

    9/12 - Missing out on the big Klit v Chisora preview

    16/12 - Missing the BHOP preview

    or Do you mean today's edition?
