“I used to listen to Moneybox but unfortunately I’ve stopped since the BBC introduced the delay before releasing episodes anywhere except BBC sounds. I don’t want to have to switch between different apps so, sadly, the number of BBC podcasts I listen to has reduced a lot.
It’s a real shame...”Read full review »

“I used to listen to this every week. But the podcast feed now only has episodes a month after broadcast - you have to use BBC Sounds to get them on the day. I can’t be bothered switching apps for different podcasts so I only hear Money Box now if I happen to have radio4 on at the right time.”

“Insurance hikes- thanks for focusing on car insurance. Painful increases are being matched by house and contents insurance. Our renewal quotes recently received are between 45% - 61% increased!!!! Can you explore this too?
Thank you

“The recent series interviewing people is a good concept, but the guests need to be challenged rather than saying their own things that doesn’t make sense.
The former music teacher who is now on benefits has to buy expensive ready meals and can only afford one meal a day because he is physically...”Read full review »

“These episodes are over a month old. The only way to get recent episodes is via the BBC Sounds app. This really annoys me. I pay my TV licence and I think this content should be available simultaneously on all major platforms.”

“This weekend was never going to be ‘the coldest’, the entire winder so far has been unseasonably warm. This weekend in particular is completely normal temperature- hard to understand why it is needed to create fear constantly - apart from hoping more people will click of course.”

“The whole point of these programs is to allow people to keep up to date, but for some very bizarre reason the BBC has decided to release them after the event WITHOUT mm listeners.
Just release them on other podcast apps as soon as they are broadcast please”

“I enjoy the show but it’s annoying to have to wait a month before episodes are made available on platforms other than BBC Sounds. I want to listen and organise my podcasts in one place.
Things are changing so rapidly these days that financial news from a month ago doesn’t cut the mustard.”

How is it ossicle that we have gotten into such stress point ? Does pointing the finger of blame really help right now?

“Why? What do I gain as a licence payer to the BBC to be forced to listen via BBC sounds to get the latest show? Nothing.
So why delay by 28 days BBC? You are not listening to the people who pay your salaries. Shame on you.”

“Until this episode this was a unbiased, informative financial podcast. For balance and to avoid discrimination can we have an episode dedicated to white entrepreneurs now. Think I know what (if any) the response will be.”

“Are the BBC trying to lose the licence fee by having more ads than commercial channels ?
It’s a real shame as they were the best in the world
Strategic suicide by incompetence is a tragic way to go
Especially as these ads are aimed at listeners who were probably going to download the content anyway”
