The ''Ventura County Star'' has faced many complaints that involved its circulation practices rather than its editorial content. As of April 2, 2011, the Better Business Bureau listed ten (10) separate "significant" complaints from the previous three years, of which two alleged the company made unauthorized debits from the customers' checking accounts, four alleged problems obtaining refunds, two alleged the company harassed a customer or former customer, two alleged improper billing, and two alleged delivery continued after customers tried to cancel.<ref name="complaints">[http://www.santabarbara.bbb.org/PublicComplaints.aspx?CompanyID=306300 "Significant Complaints"], The Better Business Bureau of Ventura, Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo Counties, Inc.</ref> (The number of allegations does not add to the total number of complaints because two of the complaints made multiple allegations.)
