Customer Reviews
promises information but doesn't deliver
In 7 October 2009 edition the presenter Melanie Dowding talked about the new Which? Money helpline, available to both Which? Money and Which? subscribers. She promised details of how and when to access the helpline would be made available on the podcast's webpage. More than a week later the info has not been put onto the page, contacting the parent organisation Which? direcly (I have a paid subscription) resulted in snotty replies and no action. It's just the lastest example of why this podcast is so infuriating. They only give out half the info, don't deliver on promises and there is no feedback channel for the podcast itself. No contact email is given out during the program, nor is there any feedback email on the podcast's webpage. I call that very poor communication with you audience. Completely missing the point of podcasting. This could be so much better. But all it seems to be at the moment is a cynical way of getting people to subscribe to Which? paid services. Instead it's doing the opposite for me: I'm currently seriously considering cancelling my subscibtion. Two stars because occasionally it contains a useful tidbid of financial information.
Great informative podcast
Enjoy this every week. It's informative but also informal and chatty which makes it an easy listen.
Priceless!
Priceless information if you want to fight your corner as a consumer! I am always a little sad when I update my podcasts and there's no new episode from Which? Money. Congratulations to the hosts!
