I was expecting a free gift with my subscription (slow cooker). I have contacted customer services on numerous occasions to be told this will be dispatched as soon as stock arrives. 6 months later still waiting!

This platform has lost its charm.

This platform was once fantastic. I regularly relied on it for new and exciting dinner ideas. Now, it's cluttered with ads and monetization tactics. The recipes are no longer easy to follow. The incessant advertisements are frustrating, and I’ve decided to stop using this platform. Farewell!

Frustrated with persistent ads and refund issues

I chose to cancel my subscription due to the continued ads, making me question what I actually paid for besides a small magazine. Four weeks later, no refund has been issued. They even charged me again on the day I received a credit! This feels like a complete scam.

Misleading subscription pricing

I signed up for the 99p for 3-month subscription, aware it would cost £24.99 afterward, planning to cancel before then. However, I was immediately charged £24.99 through Apple Pay. I reached out to explain the issue, but after 5 days, no response. I've cancelled the subscription to prevent auto-renewal, but still can't get a refund. My bank can't assist—these companies seem to take money without consequence.

Disappointing experience

Even accepting this as a commercial entity, the ad intrusiveness is shocking compared to other recipe sites. It has shifted from my go-to resource to one I won't use again.

Terrible customer service

My subscriber number is untraceable, preventing me from accessing paid app features. Most frustrating was the customer service—they rushed me off the phone without addressing my concerns, promised an email that never came, and haven't responded since. I just hope my slow cooker arrives without issues.

Unacceptable, customer support ignores refund requests

I cancelled my subscription due to ongoing ads, leaving me unsure of what I paid for aside from a small magazine. Four weeks later, I still haven't received my refund, and they charged me again on the same day they credited me! Feels like a scam.

This site does not have any affiliation with the British Broadcasting Corporation and should not be trusted as such.

Echoing previous complaints

Like others have said, I already pay a license fee and refuse to pay again just to manage cookies or have my data sold by a public service provider. I used to rely on it for recipes, but not anymore.

Intrusive cookie policies

They are asking for payment to reject cookies, and the conditions to refuse them are extremely intrusive! Seriously?!
