Usually when the ASA make a judgement that something breaches the code, they expect the broadcaster to stop running the ad. Since this wasn't a...
Maybe the address got put on the TisBest mailing list when I did it last time, and they occasionally send out gift cards to a random selection of...
Pretty sure not. The email was from the same domain as the last one (I always check when something unexpected arrives), the link took me to the...
I got sent another one of these earlier, and have donated it to MEAction again. The email from the foundation confused me because I'd forgotten...
Well, except that it linked ear seeds with recovery from ME. None of the low-cost suppliers could get away with that because they have to abide by...
This. I don't blame the young woman involved, who for all I know sincerely believes her ear seeds brought about her recovery. I don't even have a...
From that exchange, it sounds more as if he's congratulating her for being determined to do the couch-to-5k challenge or lose weight. Just think...
"...and no, we're not going to explain why we're doing it. You're not in our special club."
Good reminder! A lot of disabled people who're unable to claim PIP because they're no longer of working age don't realise they could claim this...

I would, except that they've already stated they're sending the same response to everyone (see the letter that @tornandfrayed posted in #211)....
I agree, but I can see the caveat as well: it needs to be in line with descriptions of other diseases. I looked at the page for endometriosis,...
Yes, well that's fine as long as the audience are observers. But they should acknowledge the risk that in some situations they could become...
I wonder if there are complaints and Complaints? I too have made a formal complaint, and it takes time and needs work. But if I rang them up to...
I'm guessing what they can see is the gift of the grift. The product's often irrelevant, it's the ability to attach a staggeringly large price...
I wasn't very unwell either time, but I did get this. It's 10 days since the second infection began and I tested negative and stopped having...
Really sorry to hear you've got caught as well—I hope it doesn't hang around. As for the web page, I wonder if it's because people have such...
