Up to 10,000 subscribers are estimated to have experienced delivery disruptions since the newspaper switched to ACI Media from an unidentified prior vendor on December 28.
The paper’s CEO Mike Sheehan apologized for the interruptions caused by the adjustment.
Over 100 Globe staff have reportedly volunteered to carry out the deliveries.
