i Recensioni 48

As a long-time i paper reader I have noticed that the quality of the paper (now owned by the Daily Mail) has declined over the last year or so and I am seriously considering whether or not to buy it anymore. The declining sales of this paper is evidence that I am not alone in my opinion.

The paper has become distinctly "trashier", with some articles more suited to debauched, tripe-filled "comics", such as the Sun, Star and Sunday People.

From a little research online I can see that I am not the only one who has complained about this stealthy change in style. 

Even the punctuation and grammar are regularly lacking, with even embarrassing schoolboy errors popping up in pieces that are evidently not proof-read before publication. Why not? I fear that some pieces are even produced by AI?

A few of its regular (especially "lifestyle") columnists (or rather, "churnalists") are often, under pressure, simply knocking up predictable copy that is barely worth reading, with the gist of the content already typed to death by someone else in previous issues or other publications.

And I can only assume by the "pervy", twisted and immoral garbage that "columnist" Ms K Lister churns out in this professed "FAMILY paper", that she must be a friend/relation of one of the staff in its office. It is certainly not on her merit as a writer that she is employed, surely?

Some writers are now using vulgar, coarse and offensive language to be "trendy" - this is pathetic and is a sign of a lack of intelligence and writing skill. Some people say that swearing in a piece is a way of expressing oneself. But, in fact, swearing is usually practised by UN-intelligent people who CANNOT express themselves properly - particularly when it comes to journalists/columnists who are too lazy to open there thesauruses.

Also, last Saturday's paper (9 May) was particularly poor, and not even a cartoon to lighten things up, especially after an intense political week that offered a veritable BOUNTY of material for any humorist or cartoonist. And apart from the irregular, but superb (Jennings), cartoon on a Saturday the paper lacks humour. Why not employ a couple of talented satirists and humorists?

And the front page is often now littered with salacious and vacuous, clickbait-style straplines which are regularly Sunday tabloid-esque.

Sadly, I do not think anything will change because this newer and trashier style of "i paper" is evidently now deeply ingrained in the minds of the editorial team and its contributors, with a few exceptions, as is the case with most other papers these days which have also gone down this route to fit in with other forms of dumbed down media which favour the liberal use of immoral dross and "churnalism".

Awful journalism. Just truly, God-awful. Opinions for the sake of opinions - doing their very best to stir the division in Britain. Horrible newspaper.

I played chess on the site Chessgold.app and I was at the grandmaster level and they suspect that I used the computer to win but that is not true, however I played and they decide to block my account.

absolutely a annoying piece of work hard to get rid of in the registry and run bu scammers if you have this ....THE i PAPER...get rid of it

I took a subscription online through there online advertising feature.
I paid through Apple Pay and the money was transferred straight away, after which I’ve heard nothing.
I’ve tried contacting them through their digital support email address, sent them screenshots of my bank statement showing the payment to inews, plus my email address, home address, full name and a screenshot of the Apple payment to them.
They simply say they don’t have any record of me.
They haven’t returned my payment, I’ve tried phoning, but it simply asks me to email them, which I’ve now done 8 times.
Be cautious if you are thinking of subscribing.

Current subscriber. Highly recommend this newspaper. However, unable to renew my subscription.
Have been trying for an hour to renew my subscription and it’s impossible. Issue is password update. When receiving email to update my password because I have forgotten it, yes really, it asks for my current password.
Also, impossible to contact them. I did email them a few months ago regards renewal of my subscription and they totally ignored me.
Lastly, when opening my “i” page it offers for me to renew but as above is so frustrating that I can’t.
Your IT should do better as it will loose you a good subscriber as I’m getting really fed up with this nonsense.

Muppets! Imagine paying for a subscription for those “nobodies” News 😂😂😂

Read: "Hitler's 'micropenis and ADHD' revealed by DNA testing - key claims examined"

Sounds to me like they are trying to make out that he was "naturally" born like that because of some disability or imperfection. They could just say the same thing that the nation that supported him all suffered from the same issue and even the dictators around the world today.

That "Clare Wilson" looking at her LinkedIn account is only a "Science reporter" working for Inews from July 2024 but what other background does she have in science I don't see any other than journalism and "specialising in medicine and life sciences" with some fancy awards in writing so I put that in question.

During World War 1 the Germans were living in such dire, appalling conditions so some were bound to become deranged like that in thought. She ignored all of that and focused on his genitals ignoring how they once lived, their background and the way things were in those days which sounds to me absolutely appalling, sloppy and unprofessional coming from this newspaper.

I find that The Inews paper seems to be slowly turning into The Daily Mail and this is the latest example. I stopped buying The Daily Mail many years ago as soon as I started seeing more and more sexist articles about men with "Daily Mail Reporter" or "Daily Mail staff" used to mask the name of the writer where it seemed to me that they could say what they like and not be known to the public to avoid taking accountability.

Very disappointed with the Inews. I would have given it a 3/4 out of 5 star rating but after this article which reminded me of something I'd see when I last brought The Daily Mail 0 stars.

Back a decade ago I remember seeing articles putting it down to problems with his teeth and now this.

At the bottom and they link it to autism and ADHD.
Absolutely disgusting.

Just found according to Wikipedia:
Owners: Daily Mail and General Trust (2019–present)

So it is the Daily Mail from 2019 and 6 years down the line I see the rubbish, crap reporters or writers like the one above, the sexist and now discriminatory articles allowed to creep in and appear.

Having this show up on my iPhone news feed ..man this paper is full of rubbish. Anti trump anti America anti British. Not what real people are thinking.

Dreadful trying to cancel my subscription and they are proving impossible to contact

I opted in for a trial subscription without realising how pitiful the quality of the content was. Not only is it bias, but it also misleads. A prime example of this is the article by Emily Braeger - Money Reporter published 3rd June 2025 in the Pensions and Retirement section. While admittedly this may not be classed as ‘highly important’, it does demonstrate an irreverent attitude to relevant sensitive issues given the current belief by a large proportion of the population that pensioners are ‘rolling in it’.
To cut a long story short, it uses the PLSA – Retirement Living Standards published data, stating that Pensioners can live with less money, quoting a study from Loughborough University. And although it does state the figures / examples quoted, are within a framework; for those who glance, have selected reading habits, or are unable to have a ‘world view’, will believe that the current government is completely indulging those who have consistently grafted, gone without, saved, and carried Britain through thick & thin the last 60+ tumultuous years.
Is it that the ‘study’ carried out by the University of Loughborough is inappropriate, because it has exclude important factors (such as basic costs needed for coach/rail travel, TV licence payments, house insurance, water rates, community charge, and dental costs, just to name a few common expense necessities), or has Braeger simply cherry-picked from the said study. Either way, irresponsible articles like this are damaging to a significant part of the population (who have spent their formative years ‘get-on-with-it’ rather than bellyaching about hard-done-by they are).
Worse still, this vein of selective reporting continues via Callum Mason (Deputy Money Editor), 6th June 2025 6:00 AM, where he quotes the Intergenerational Foundation findings (which again are highly subjective statements based on a narrow criterion), adding to the already false impression of the average pensioner.
But since there seem to be a number of iPaper articles having questionable accuracy (which offer unsuspecting readers a high proportion of disinformation), I agree with the majority of others who have taken the time to give their feedback here.
The only positive thing I can honestly say about iPaper is their puzzle (unlike their news) which help to keep me somewhat amused.

For the life of me I can't see what all the fuss is about concerning the Customer Service response. True, after reading the negativity here, my expectations were set low, but I was bowled over by the diligence with which the inews Customer Services team sorted out my difficulties with logging into my account. Ashleigh and I worked across several days of trying different ways until she finally created a new password for me and now I can enjoy reading my paper again. So folks, be patient and persist when you encounter problems with your accounts, and they will be resolved, I'm sure.

Paid for subscription, vouchers didn't turn up. Called their subscriptions - only answerphone that told me they would answer a left message in about 3-days.

I kept calling, when eventually I did get through, the agent said i didn't have subscription against my postcode so I referred to an email confirmation that had been sent and guess what, I do have a subscription - but no vouchers.

Admin is a shambles, agent was less than hopeless.....the situation is unacceptable but the i doesn't seem to give a damn (if they read them, they don't respond to reviews).

To think I cancelled a Times subscription to be treated like this.

One of the worst supports I have come across.
If you subscribe try and find out what your paying or payments.

we renewed our subscription but have been unable to access the in newspaper I have telephoned/emailed many times but still cant get in They are quick to take our money but slow to assist if one has a problem
I received a call from i news this morning and followed their instructions but still cant get in
I will probably ask for a refund and go over to the Times!

Today's headlines
Starmer urged to stand up to Musk or face 'nightmare' relationship with Trump
Disinformation at its best talk as much as you'd like about musk but you're forgetting the obvious villain in our Society the king the monarchy why are you not writing articles to tell the people what a parasitic organization they are

Keeps publishing articles by Tim Spector (Zoe). These articles are easily shown as false, they are heavily biased towards the vegetarian/vegan movement. They never show the research from the low-fat/keto side.

Miserable. No one answering calls. A familiar story in today's day and age. Won't be subscribing again. Why is customer service at these companies just so appallingly dreadful now?

Paywall for "news", avoid.

I'm calling it now. I think the i paper/inews, could be like a trojan horse for conservatives.

The idea is they're 'independent', but the problem is, they are owned by the Daily Mail.

They have this page where it shows news snippets from other newspapers/media, etc, and they are often with conservative bias, and always without any counter argument to it.

It makes sense that is a trojan horse too. Because a non-conservative wouldn't buy a conservative newspaper, so it makes sense to sneakily brainwash people (who think they've avoided a conservative biased newspaper), by pretending it's not a conservative newspaper, but still throwing in unchallenged conservative opinions into it.

I mean, how else do you get a non-conservative or centrist to believe in your conservative views? They won't buy your newspaper, so you create a newspaper that is more liberal, on the face of it, and then thrown in trojan horse articles or even just snippets of articles from conservative sources to attempt to change people's minds.

Also very suspicious after the USA elections, the inews editor was saying 'oh Kamala wasn't good enough blah blah', like every other paid for news site, (which had been told what to say).

She had way more support leading up to the election, despite the total conservative bias in the media.

Trump had completely soiled his underpants, but the reality is, Musk and Trump stole the election, and then a lot of editors were told to write 'oh it was all Kamala's fault', as if we're meant to just forget the support she had, and believe that Trump really won.

If you ever want trust back again, you need to be owned by people that are not pushing conservative agendas to protect their own bank accounts.
