Pepperplate Cooking Planner

I loved this app.but now have to pay£2.99 per month they can keep it.I didn’t use it all the time it was a very good recipe app.if they had charged for it like £3 or £4 to use all the time I would have bought it but not at £2.99 per month will be deleting it now

I will be deleting app. I have just found out about the £2.99 monthly charge. I used it for a few weeks back in 2017, but found very clunky.

After using the app for nearly 10 years they have now decided to shut down my account unless I pay £2.99 per month. Absolute joke. I’m fed up of these app developers getting greedy and expecting people to sign up to sub standard apps. A one off payment I wouldn’t mind but not a chance I’m paying 2.99 for the rest of my life for this. Really disappointed

Been a user for many years, I've now been automatically subscribed to a free trial which I did not authorize and unable to access my recipes unless I stay subscribed. A subscription is fine for new customers as they know what they're agreeing to but don't enforce it on customers that have been using the app for years and lock their recipes. Poor experience and will be going elsewhere if this isn't resolved.

It still really upsets me that an app I’ve had for years and built up a bank of recipes on suddenly decided I have to start paying for it. I don’t need any feature updates etc so why couldn't it stay as it was?

Feel very let down Used pepperplate for a long time - now cant access ‘my’ recipes as there is now a pay wall. Very disappointed.

Been using this app for a few years now just to store recipes. Now they want to charge £2.99 a month ..... no wonder the rating for this app is so low

They want a subscription for nothing, app hasn’t changed in 10 years and now they want 2.99 a month. Laughable

Like a number of reviewers, I was a loyal user of this app for many years. Suddenly they send a notice (that ended up in my junk mail) saying subscribe or click ‘export recipe data’. The trouble is you can’t do the latter because you have to log in, presumably if you didn’t do it before the end of the ‘free trial’. But older users (like me) don’t appear to have passwords so it won’t let you log in. I have written to them demanding they release information I stored on the site within 14 days. Absolutely shoddy!

Absolute disgrace, after being a loyal customer for many many years, I suddenly discover that I can’t access my data without paying £2.99 per month! So I’ve had no choice but to subscribe for one month, retrieve my data and I have now cancelled my subscription and deleted the app from my iPhone and iPad. You should be bl**dy ashamed of yourselves, there is no advanced functionality in the app to support a monthly subscription of that price & I think you’ll find many other customers will now be walking away. To give no advanced warning is an appalling business model, you money grabbing b*st*rds!
