Why so many negative reviews re:- Customer Service
I cannot understand why there are so many negative reviews regarding Customer service.
I called today at 11.30, short delay on hold ( less than 2 mins).
The agent understood my query straight away, and offered an acceptable solution without me being pushy, all sorted in less than 5 mins!
Also I do agree the standard price is too high, but it takes very little effort to get both digital and mags for half price - just ask.

SHOULD TAKE NOTICE OF TRUSTPILOT REVIEWS
Which you should check out Trustpilot reviews when recommending goods and services, often the companies recommend have VERY low Trustpilot scores for aftersales care which is what you need most should a problem arise.
I would start with (looking in the mirror) addressing your own appalling Trustpilot score.
I trust Trustpilot reviews more than yours.

Aldi as cheapest supermarket, yeah great, cheap because the quality is awful.
And my god the tech reviews it's like you haven't actually researched the product or industry.

Hello Paul,
I’m sorry to hear about your experience and the concerns you’ve raised.
Our recommendations, including those for Octopus Energy, are based on large-scale research, not single cases. We survey thousands of customers and assess company practices, with Octopus scoring highest in our latest review.
For supermarkets like Aldi, we track prices of up to 200 items daily and compare average basket costs. Aldi has consistently come out as the cheapest across most months and years.
Our tech reviews are based on independent lab testing where we buy and test products ourselves. For services, we use large-scale customer surveys.
If you’d like to share feedback, you can use the blue feedback tab on our website.
Alternatively, if you’d like us to look into your concerns further, please get in touch with our Complaints Team at complaintsteam@which.co.uk

Self-interested and uninformed
There is a shocking lack of understanding about the products and organisations that Which? reviews. They seem to be interested in threatening behaviour and scaremongering consumers, so desperate are they to try to remain relevant in a world where Google, Trustpilot and others will tell you (for free) exactly what consumers think. A potentially good publication gone bad.

Hi Erik,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry to hear you feel this way.
Our reviews are carried out by specialist researchers and testers, with the aim of giving clear, accurate and evidence-based information. We don’t aim to alarm consumers, but to highlight any genuine issues so people can make informed decisions.
We understand that platforms like Google or Trustpilot offer customer opinions for free. Our approach is different, as we focus on independent testing and direct comparisons so people can see how products and services perform side by side.
If there are specific examples where you feel our content has been inaccurate, unfair or threatening, please get in contact with our Resolutions team at complaintsteam@which.co.uk and we can investigate this further.

Which? Are Only Interested In Money
During a global chocolate shortage a family member, a chocolate connoisseur who can tell without looking which country the cocoa beans came from, the chocolate percentages and other technical data - stated unambiguously that chocolate bars are being diluted and mislabelled. He tried to contact Which? Magazine about it but they were not interested. Which? could easily test for this issue but they don't care. Have to laugh at their greed.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear a family member has had a poor experience when trying to highlight this matter to us.
In terms of choosing what we test, we have a dedicated team of analysts who carefully scour the market to decide which products and services we should review. We can’t test everything, but our analysts help us focus on the areas that matter most, such as widely used services or popular products people rely on every day.
We also offer the chance to submit feedback via the blue tab on our website. Although we cannot answer every query, it ensures that the information gets viewed by the relevant team for wider insight. Our website also offers the chance to get involved with campaigns (see https://www.which.co.uk/campaigns) or join Which?

Which? Tech is definitely going down in standards
After waiting for ages whilst the person who answered the phone, called Abid went off the phone to find a Tech 'expert' and left music playing for ages (without coming in to say he was still there), he then said he booked someone called Philip who rang me and was starting some sort of instruction over the telephone in how to retrieve my password,.. as though I had not tried other methods myself.
I have spoken with other tech experts who have put some effort into it. One is Don. He does look into problems remotely if you feel you are unable to fix whatever. Obviously, anyone who can sort things out would do so without calling Which?
Don is helpful. I could have waited instead of getting anyone who is really casual about the dilemma.
The choice of booking yourself an appointment online is not straight forward. Then, what if you have a problem with accessing the device in the first place.....?
Which? have said many times they are training up staff
However, they seems to have less.
I spent exactly one minute with 'Philip' but I said goodbye, as I have had him before and would now avoid him. A few months ago, it was time wasted. I do make notes.
It has been emailed today that I had an appointment. No I Did Not!

pointless
Twice now, as a result of Which? recommendations, I've found myself burdened with owning items that function badly and/or companies that are lacking in basic customer service.
Their recommendations for big items are vague and sparse.
Not worthwhile at all.
We still own a useless hand vacuum cleaner we bought entirely on their recommendation. It takes up valuable closet space but occasionally we try it again and curse it.

Meant to be a consumer friendly company?
1. Poor Customer Service Policies which is even more infuriating given the nature of the magazine. I read Februarys magazine at the dentist and decided to subscribe. this was the latter end of January. When you subscribe nowhere does it tell you which will be the first copy unlike other companies which do. As most magazines are sent out early to mid the month before I expected my first copy to be March. Surprisingly the first copy was February quickly followed a few days later by March. I contacted Which by email asking if the could extend my membership by one month given the above. I recieved an email back asking me to ring or start an online chat (Groan). I did this and was basically told tough, no they would not do this. I was baffled by their response. What would this have cost them?
2. I have previously used their recommendations for:
a. Heatable Solar panels which Which gives you a discount on ; I wonder if which gets a fee for this ?
The solar installation is not done by heatable and is contracted out to local companies which it would have been better to go to direct to. We had numerous issues with the process and I cannot recommend them.
b. Nectar mattress again a best buy at the time; seam split 11 months after purchase.

Strangely a lot of the reviews of…
Strangely a lot of the reviews of Which? focus on the difficulty in cancelling your subscription. I have the opposite problem. I have been a subscriber for years and receive the magazines every month. To be honest I've been thinking of cancelling as I rarely use the service these days. However whilst in Spain a couple of weeks ago I had my phone stolen. I duly notified Apple and Vodafone and thought I'd better just notify HSBC even though my cards were safe and Apple Pay had been removed from my phone. The HSBC phone bot (don't get me started) asked what the problem was. I started to explain but the moment it heard the word "stolen" it immediately cancelled my cards which as I was in a foreign country without a phone was definitely not something I wanted to happen! Nevertheless, the next thing is I get an email from Which saying they can't process my payment so they have cancelled my account. Wow! Not even a preliminary email to enquire as to why they can't take the payment. Having been with them for years I was annoyed that this was how little they care about their customers. Saves me the bother of going through what appears to be a hideous rigmarole by the sounds of it I guess, but I would rather be the party that choses to cancel the account, not them....

Price Rip Off on Renwals
I have subscribed to Which for a number of years and today I received an email from their CEO stating that my annual subscription was going up from £49 to £89. a 81.63% increase. I called Which to cancel my subscription, only to be told it was not reflected in their system. But even if it was, I could be given a 50% discount.
How do they possibly think they can justify an over a 81% increase for the same product?
If they can offer a better price, why try to take advantage of existing loyal customers?

Shameful cancellation process
I have always been a fan of Which?product reviews but I did not expect the hard sell from live chat, three times, when requesting to cancel. In the end I had to say I was going to make a complaint. I just wanted to cancel my account. I dont blame the advisor but, Which? - Shame on you for your unethical practice. You embarrass your customers by making them feel they have to justify cancelling a subscription. What if they just don't have any money? You've gone right down in my estimation.

For a company that sells itself on trust
For a company that sells itself on trust, I was very disappointed to discover by accident that Which had charged me £99 for auto renewal, when I had specifically asked them to switch that off last year. There was no easy way to switch this off. I received no email about the charge either. Only reason I realised was because my bank account went into overdraft and I was trying to work out why.

Misleading Endorsement
Misleading Endorsement & Lack of Transparency
Which?
Which? continues to endorse Octopus Energy as a “Recommended Provider” despite serious, unresolved concerns around vulnerable customer protections and data handling.
For an organisation whose recommendations strongly influence consumer decisions, maintaining an unconditional endorsement without clear qualification risks misleading consumers — particularly those who are vulnerable or disabled.
This undermines confidence in the independence, due diligence, and transparency of the recommendation process.

Hello Gerard,
Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns about our endorsement of Octopus Energy. We’re sorry to hear how frustrating your experience has been, particularly given the seriousness of the issues you’ve raised around vulnerability protections and data handling.
It’s genuinely disheartening when a provider we’ve highlighted doesn’t meet the expectations we, and consumers, rightly have. Please be assured that we don’t take feedback like this lightly. While our Recommended Provider endorsements are based on rigorous analysis of large-scale consumer data across a wide range of metrics, individual reports such as yours are important and are considered as part of our ongoing monitoring and future assessments.
Our endorsements are not typically reviewed on the basis of a single case, but on a wider scale, where overall feedback is assessed. Experiences shared by consumers help us identify broader patterns and inform our work, including where we challenge industries and push for change. The detailed criteria and due diligence processes behind our endorsements are designed to reflect compliance with consumer protection standards and overall service quality.
Thank you again for taking the time to raise these concerns and for sharing your perspective.

Money Which? Not enough depth and substance
Have been subscribing to Money Which? for about 5 years but find a lot of the articles very superficial. About 18 months ago they reduced the number of issues from every month to every other month with the promise it would contain more pages. However these include a lot of ‘fillers’ - overly large pictures and photographs (e.g. the latest issue has a whole page for a simple drawing that only needs half a page at most). Some articles are revamped and ‘recycled’ with updated tables and commentary rewritten (e.g. one of pension drawdown from Dec/Jan 2024/5 repeated last month). Perhaps I am already fairly financially savvy but I’m thinking of cancelling as for me it’s not worth nearly £50 for 6 issues as it’s not giving me a lot that I don’t know or could gain from an internet search. OK I suppose if you are financially clueless and just want a very basic grasp of things and you will get a few handy hints about things like various insurance policies.
