I strongly recommend people do not sign up for The Spectator. No way to turn auto renewal off, I didn't want to cancel, just the option to renew or not when the time came. They then take 15% as an adm... Mehr ansehen

I'm changing an earlier review, as it turns out it's far more Royal Mail than The Spectator at fault. Even our regular postie, has said they came back to chaos after having time off. The Spectator ha... Mehr ansehen

An excellent evening with some lovely wines.
These people are liars!
I paid £12 for a three-month trial.
Twenty-four hours later, and I still cannot read any articles.
I sent them a screenshot of my membership and a screenshot of the problem.
They said they would give me seven days' access while they sort out the problem.
Then they sent me an automated email stating that they could not find my email address, so I would not receive the seven-day access, even though it would take up to a week to resolve my problem, despite the screenshot I sent that clearly showed the correct email address.
So, I will lose one week of the twelve-week trial I paid for.
The email was, without doubt, automated, so they had no intention of giving me seven days for free.
What a dreadful company to deal with.
Stay clear!

Amazing service
Firstly great magazine and online experience.
My thanks to Leyda - outstanding service.
Her colleague Jack in support and his colleagues sorted me out in supplying wrong email address on renewal deal.
Looking forward to my reading although the futures news probably grim.
Thanks..things do go wrong...the team at Spectator go the extra mile to resolve and reach win win as source of issue the customers fault ! At 68 cancer in remission sometimes you need rebooting!
Scam
Scam, charged my credit card for over a year, without ever sending a receipt or invoice. Sadly a very untrustworthy company who does not respond.
A great way to spend an evening
Great fun, great atmosphere and friendly people. A great way to spend an evening.

A wonderful setting for an excellent quiz. I felt it would have been even better with a little more time in between each round to socialise or perhaps a half-time intermission. Maybe if the whole event lasted longer but included a break it wouldn’t have felt rushed. Moreover, I had expected the ‘nibbles’ to be a little more varied than just crisps and pretzels. Nonetheless, we had a great time and will hopefully come again next year!

We had a super evening at The Spectator. The organisation and professionalism shon through and the chance to meet fellow “Spectators” who are now no longer strangers
A special thanks to Chloe who organised everything and made us feel like old friends as we checked in
Perhaps a wider choice of soft drinks would be helpful - but the Elderflower is always star of the show.

Renewal payment taken too early, refund refused.
Had a 3 month subscription. T&Cs say You can cancel anytime within your introductory period to avoid moving onto the higher rate, though cancellations may take up to a week to process. However they took payment on 28th Jan for a subscription taken out on 9th November so almost two weeks before the 3 month point. Refused to refund. Note that looking at the account online there is nowhere that gives a subscription end date, nor in the e-mail sent when the subscription is taken out. They tried claiming that the expiry end date is the date of the 13th issues (so less than three months) but this is not mentioned in the offer or confirmation e-mails. In any case, because of Christmas there were two 'missing issues' so 1st Feb was actually the 11th issue delivered.
Incompetent subscription service
Great magazine but appalling subscription department.
For example, our house had signed up to two print deliveries by mistake, so I asked them to cancel one. They cancelled BOTH, and refused to reinstate either of them. Arrogant incompetent bxxtards.
Magazine good, customer service great
Customer service team helped resolve the issue with my voucher. Very grateful to Jack who was quick to respond.
First class
I messed up my subscription renewal and thought I would miss out on their Christmas special offer subscription with free champagne. It was sorted efficiently and politely. Very impressed. Love the content for a realistic view of the world
Terrible customer service
I had a similar experience in cancelling my subscription as many others appear to have had. In October 2023 I cancelled my subscription to The Spectator and they sent me an email confirming the cancellation. Last week I happened to notice that they had kept charging me for more than a year. It took a week to sort out but they have agreed a refund (but no compensation, despite stealing money from my account). Moral of the story: a) don't subscribe to The Spectator b) if you have ever cancelled a subscription or free trial to The Spectator, go back and check your bank account to confirm they aren't still charging you. And c) check your bank statements...
Book immediately events announced
Very enjoyable events especially the Wine Cruise, although a little expensive. Lunches in the Boardroom are exceptionally enjoyable but very often difficult to get tickets due to limited places and disappointed not to get a place for Christmas lunch.
Michael Gove
The conservative party are down
The conservative party are down, might even be out, why, the behaviour of Michael Gove, Dominic Cummings Rishi Sunak and their follows, towards the resignation of Boris Johnson, is unforgivable treachery by so called loyal friends.
Now the Spectator have employed Michael Gove as Editor, so you must agree with his actions, have you read Nadine Dorries Book The Plot, amazing, that can not be good for the magazine.
Wonderful cruise
What a wonderful way to cruise down the Thames and pummel a few clay pigeons. The cruise was perfectly orchestrated and the lunch and accompanying wines were superb. Thanks to Jonny and the team for looking after us all so well.
