Radiotimes Reviews

Anyone knows there s nothing on any BBC

Anyone knows there s nothing on any BBC channel worth watching anymore thus rendering the existence of this overpriced magazine redundant This begs the question who still buys this and why Their weekly output hadn t changed in decades the same dreary anodyne nonsense continues from one year to the next Presumably their output is influenced by the ex Tories and assorted right wing placemen on the board of governors The BBC is badly in need of change before it becomes completely irrelevant

No delivery of this week s copiy of

No delivery of this week s copiy of Radio Times I tried to complete online form but that is not working When I telephoned the answering machine gave a message for 3 weeks ago saying closed for Bank Holiday Poor deteriorating service

Price gone through the roof

Just cancelled my subscription due to huge price increase of 225 Had this subscription for 2 years and queried the rise in cost before cancelling this was met with complete indifference

After subscribing for about 11 years

After subscribing for about 11 years we decided that the cost was way too much I rang on 23rd to cancel stated the reason as cost all agreed without any problems I asked if I needed to cancel the DD at my bank was told that it wasn t necessary as they would sort it all for me Today 1st August I see they have taken 85 DD I rang to ask for a refund this was agreed Only trouble is it will take a fortnight before it s back in our account I complained insisted they refund immediately they refused I asked if I went overdrawn because of this if they would pay my bank charges no they would not This is appalling service I cancel because I can t afford the service they take 85 from me without authorisation make me wait 2 weeks to get it back

3 Xs 200 rise in subscription cost without notice

Suddenly without notice we discover our direct debit for our subscription to The Radio Times had risen 3 times what we had been paying We immediately contacted them They claimed they had sent us notification but there was no proof of that anywhere in our mailboxes or - in theirs They promised they d resend that notification but that also never happened So we cancelled our subscription and asked for a refund which did eventually happen approximately two weeks later With other subscriptions there have always been attractive benefits a nice discount with no additional postage or handling charges After all the publisher has a customer for a guaranteed length of time the benefits of subscription going both ways What The Radio Times offered us with this huge and unexpected rise was a savings of only a few pennies per issue 4 95 being the current off the shelf per issue price We have valued and enjoyed our weekly copy of The Radio Times for decades but we won t be re-subscribing at these prices Our disappointment wasn t just because of this huge rise in the price their poor customer service the attitude given to us by their representative over the phone this also was a let down Sad to have written off The Radio TImes from now on we ll be looking elsewhere for news of what s happening on TV and the Radio

Radio Times never arrives on time these days

The Radio Times needs to demand a postage refund from the Post Office as 99 of my copies have never arrived before Monday the following week I have only had ONE issue actually arrive on-time in the past 4 months To cap it all today the PO managed to surpass their lready appalling delivery record by not bothering to meet their normal 3 days delayed Monday delivery So if it finally turns up tomorrow Tuesday over 50 of the content will be obsolete What a farce My advice don t bother subscribing you re only lining the Post Offices pockets and rewarding extermly poor service Even complaing to RT won t stop late deliveries happening again and again and that will include any replacement copies RT send out to you

Subscription Rip Off

My subscription increased from 52 per 6 months to 128 Needless to say I cancelled it and then guess what I bought a new subscription for 52 with the extra benefit of the first 10 copies for just 10 This is just ripping off un observant customers and I resent it very much
