Is it worth the £9.75 per month?

Of the things I know about that they've reviewed the review reads like they learnt everything they needed to know for the review from wikipedia the evening before. I would imagine it's much the same for the things I don't know about, so I'm out. Use your common sense and you'll probably do just as well and be £9.75 better off. :y

Does sound rather like a scam...

£120 a year for things you can get on the tinterweb for free :-\

My thoughts entirely, I wonder how it's still going at that price.

I think its unfair to single out just Which? for that (and I know you weren't), as all "professional" reviewers are every bit as bone idle as journalists.

But who can we trust now?  Most of the on-site reviews on virtually all sites are geared towards corruption/bribery.  Same goes for most youtube reviews.


And, no, I don't have a Which? subscription. Nor would I.

And if you go to a site where consumers leave reviews, like Trustpilot, all of the reviews will be negative, as satisfied customers don't bother.

Trustpilot has issues, as retailers can remove reviews they don't like.
