We submitted a manuscript to PLOS ONE and were accepted for publication on July 12, 2023. We paid the article processing charge a few days later, but the article has still not been published (after 40 days). A DOI has been generated but it leads nowhere (10.1371/journal.pone.0289151).
We have tried contacting PLOS ONE through multiple email addresses and have received no response. We also tried to call the phone number listed on our invoice to confirm payment, but were directed to an automated message that told us to send them an email. Due to 'high volume' they expected to get back to us in 7-10 business days.
Has anyone else had delays in publishing with PLOS lately?
It is possible you are dealing with one of the predator journals. Kindly do background checks on Journals before submitting your manuscript or making any financial commitment. Thanks
Dear Noah James Langenfeld The problem seems to be solved: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/373773705_An_improved_digestion_and_analysis_procedure_for_silicon_in_plant_tissue Congrats!
By the way they claim the following: Received April 10th Accepted July 12th Published September 8th, 2023, wonder if the publishing date is correct.
Best regards.
Facing some similar issue. How your problem get solved? please share with me as well @noah james Langenfeld
