nicer than the free apps

Compared to the free news apps this is way nicer to read, the articles are actually properly written. Paid for a month to try it and the sign up was quick. Nothing to complain about really.

Compared with the other publisher

Compared with the other publisher I used to take, the digital edition here is far more pleasant to browse. The archive is easy to search and the pages turn smoothly. Signing up was straightforward and I had no difficulty receiving the first issue, which I found reassuring given past experiences elsewhere.

needed something for the commute

Needed something to read on the commute that isn't news. Signed up for the digital edition on my phone while waiting for the bus. Took a minute to set up and it works fine offline too.

needed a magazine for my sister

I needed a magazine subscription for my sister who lives in the country and rarely gets to the shops. The sign up process was clear and I was able to give the delivery address without any fuss. She has been very pleased with the copies arriving on time.

Exactly what I was after

I have subscribed for the printed edition and I am pleased to say it is exactly what I was after. The renewal notice arrived well in advance, which I did appreciate. Copies have come through the letterbox in good order each month and the printing is clear.

Bought a digital pass for the train

Bought a digital subscription for the train to work because my paper copy kept getting left on the seat. Signed up on my phone while waiting for the platform, took about five minutes and the login came through straight away. Reading it on the app now and it loads fine even with patchy signal between stations. Really handy, and I've already stopped carrying it round in my bag.

Sign up was smooth

The first thing I noticed was how clear the plan options were, with the annual and monthly prices side by side. Signing up took a few minutes and I got a welcome email that explained how to access the digital edition. Only thing that let it down a bit was that the discount code I'd seen advertised didn't apply until I refreshed the page.

quick and easy first order

Honestly one of the easiest sign ups I've done online. Took about five minutes from landing on the page to getting my account sorted and the confirmation came through straight away. I'd only ever seen the magazine in the shop before so it was nice to see how the subscription side works. Everything was where I expected it to be and I didn't have to hunt for anything.

Subscription renewal slightly fiddly

I was rather surprised that the renewal notice arrived by post before any email, which I did not expect from a site like this. Once I had found the right page, renewing was perfectly straightforward, though I did need to ring them to change the address on the account. Their phone team were polite and sorted it within a few minutes. The printed copies have always arrived on time, so I am content enough.

needed a gift subscription

Needed a gift subscription for my niece who's just started a design course. Wanted something she'd actually read rather than another random present. The gift option at checkout was clear and I could set the start date for her birthday month.

Been subscribed for years

Been a subscriber for years now and the renewal is still the best part. Price has crept up a little but it's still good value. The issues arrive on time and the customer team have always sorted out the odd missing copy quickly.

Way easier than the shop

Compared to buying the magazine in WHSmith this is so much easier, no queueing and no sold out copies. Signed up for the monthly plan and the first one came through the app the same day. Bit of a faff finding the cancel button but otherwise really good.

cheapest way to read it

Took the annual plan rather than paying monthly, which works out about a third cheaper over the year. Signing up took maybe five minutes and I didn't need to make an account twice like on some other sites. I read the digital copy on my laptop during lunch and the articles load fast even on a bad connection. Good value for what I get, and the renewal reminder gives plenty of notice.

Needed a cheaper option

Needed a cheaper way of getting the magazine for my book club, as buying copies each month was adding up. Signed up for a group discount and the paperwork was simple to fill in. Good value for what we get and the club is happy with it.

Got the digital one

Got the digital one so I could read it on my tablet. Loads fast and the pages look nice on the bigger screen. Easy to sign up and I've already read the cover story twice lol.

Gift card arrived quick

Bought a digital gift card for my son's birthday and it landed in his inbox within about ten minutes, which was better than I expected. The price was the same as buying the magazine in the shop for a year but without the bother of carrying it home. He was happy and that's all I needed. Only thing is the email went to spam first, so check there if they say they haven't got it.

A good subscription that works

I would say the subscription is excellent value and I have been a satisfied reader for some months now. The renewal process was clear and I was able to manage my account without ringing anyone, which I appreciated. The issues have arrived on schedule and in good condition, and the pages are easy to read.

got the gift card

Got a gift card for my mum's birthday and she was dead chuffed with it. Ordered it online and it arrived by email within a few minutes, which was spot on. Easy to choose the amount and add a message too.

better than the newsagent

Way better than buying it from the newsagent, no walking to the shop in the rain. I signed up for the monthly plan and it turned up on the mat before the first of the month. Login was a bit fiddly at first but it sorted itself out.

Subscription sorted on the phone

Signed up for a digital subscription on my phone on the train. The app was quick to load and the sign in worked first time, which I wasn't expecting. Got access to the back issues straight away and I've been reading the features in bed. Didn't have to enter my card details twice either, which was a nice change.
