This will show you the current status of your account(s) and an option to change that status. Your options for changing your status are:
Inactive – This will stop your subscription.
Vacation/Stopped - This will stop your newspaper deliveries for your preferred dates. Your expiration date will be extended for the duration of your stop.
Vacation/Forward – This function allows you to have your newspapers delivered to an alternate location for an extended amount of time. If you are interested in using this feature please contactccc1@news-gazette.media or 217-351-5252.

For complaint selections that include “(Mon – Sat)”, this does not mean this complaint exclusively applies to all days, Monday through Saturday. It means this issue has occurred on a day other than Sunday.

FAQ:
Q: I am asked to enter my phone number when trying to save an unrelated change, but there I can’t find a box to add it. How do I solve this?
A: When this occurs, you will want to navigate to the “Update Information” section of our website (second tab from the left ). This will have several boxes listed “First Name”, “Last Name”, “Phone”, “Email”, and “Password.” You will need to first enter your phone number and save this change. This is will also save the change you were attempting to make before you were prompted to enter your phone number. There will be a message displaying the change that you have just saved.
