Good Food Anmeldelser 

Used be my favourite site
before the BBC sold it to 'The food network'

Now it's just pay-walls and click bait.

I wonder what is the point of Trustpilot?

Yeah, we can all see the reviews - and BBC Good Food IS a terrible website - but if the actually websites, companies and organisations don't read these reviews, or do read them but aren't in the slightest bit bothered by them, why do we waste our time giving reviews?

I used to use the good food app but cancelled my subscription - decided to re take up the subscription today due to an offer of £4.99 for 6 months - it then took £24.99 out of my account, which is completely unfair as it was meant to be £20.00 less. And now it won’t even give me access to the app and is saying I have no subscription. Emailed first thing this morning and still no response and phone number no longer valid. So now I’m £20 down when I really didn’t need to be. Will be raising a dispute with my bank as soon as it’s out of pending. SCAM.

I took out a Good Food subscription recently but when I tried to book tickets for the Good Food show and use my subscriber discount I received a message that it was invalid. So far, so bad. I sought help from from the admin but was told to ring the show instead. Hopeless!

This website is the slowest I have ever used. It takes a while to load up and then keeps buffering. I save recipes only to go back and find they are gone. I subscribed to the app thinking this would be better but if anything it is slower, would not even open this morning.

Have tried a few recipes and they were ok, nothing to write home about. However I will have to rate it one star because of the abysmal experience of trying to use the website on a phone. There are many other options to find better recipes and they don’t make you want to throw your device into a lake.

I'm not going to give less than 5* because I love the website (it's my go to) and also have magazine subscription as do a few family members - my gripe is I've just done a popped up survey on the website whilst doing gluten free Christmas pudding (which is amazing) but have immediately been inundated with crappy advertising not even associated with my answers to survey - my advice is DON'T DO ANY SURVEY!!! it's completely ruined a perfectly good website I've been using for many years along with magazine subscription. Can't even leave a review on the website because advertising for a government dept is covering it. It's really not good enough!!

I accidentally pressed one star when I was not supposed to have pressed a single star that's how poor and scamming waste of my time this turned out to be. Scamming me for my money and my time - how putrid and humiliating. Desperately attempting to scam ANYBODY they possibly can for their own selfish benefits. What scamming individual/s. I am disgusted and horrified. You wasted my time
False advertising really does not turn anybody on fyi!

The bbc food app is totally rubbish when you start a subscription and starts with free month you cannot go back into again this app needs to be redesigned by the people who wrote it

The website is horrendous without an adblocker, you'd think you've gone to your city's local news website. Banner ads, autoplaying Video ads, and those godawful personalised ads that use the information from your home address's IP address to customise it to have your grandma's first and last name on it (remember when coke did that?) Don't bother with a website that gives so little care to its users just to make some passive income.

Horrible web site, layout is unreadable. The recipes all look 5 star but it seems bad reviews are removed. The BBC need to disassociate with this site.

this was absolute dog water couldn't cook a single thing using this i would rather ask my 90 year old blind grandma to teach me how to cook, whatever you do not use this awfull website beware if you do you might catch food poisoning

Won’t let me unsubscribe from the emails, I’ve tried multiple times, emailed and added the sender to my blocked list and somehow they’re still coming through this is ridiculous

looked forward to trying the updated clasic lasagne Feb 2023 issue. I cannot beleive you try every recipe. The end product wobbled when I took it out of the oven then I found out why, I tipped out a 1/4 pint of oil it was disgusting thank goodness I was not cooking for guests.

Multiple issues with the web-site and app. Web-site often slow to do anything, especially print. Won't search in my saved recipes. And so on. Shame, since I like the recipes. Can't print the 'App only' specials and so on. Wish I hadn't paid and won't renew. Instead of trying to get subs for the magazines, they should fix the app and web-site.

March 2023 magazine. 6 March starts BRITISH National Pie Week. I was looking forward to my magazine to find some interesting pie recipes as we are celebrating the occasion. Was I unlucky, recipes from all round the world but not even a mention of a longstanding british tradition.What a disapointment.

I registered for 3 month subscription to BBC Good food but didn't cancel as I had not received notification of renewal. They took £22.50 from my account without prior notification. I understand the Direct Debit Guarantee states a customer should be notified prior to a change and as the DD was increased without prior notification I should have been informed.

I have emailed several times but haven't had a response.

I will now contact my bank for a refund.

Enrolled in a paid for masterclass series. I did not get access to all the lessons mentioned, so I emailed Good Food. Tried two different email contact addresses on the website and have had no response from either. Class was rubbish as well for what it cost and the content was mediocre and basic.

Dreadful App. Website said recipe I wanted was exclusive to the App so I downloaded. Recipe did not come up on search and the things that did required a subscription. Money grabbing bxxxxxd’s. Will be deleting the App, won’t be using website again or buying the magazine.

1. I wish that you would publish reader’s reviews of recipes as an indication of how easy/tasty they are.
Readers often come up with ideas and twists which greatly extend and improve recipes.

2 It’s very frustrating that you publish ‘Chef’s Best One-Pot Meals’ - but don’t actually give the recipes! - eg‘Pad see ew gai’, biryani, and chicken tagline m’qualli in the current edition (p 20)
