IEThis is a US based product This is a US based product, with no option to choose UK language settings..... Zee instead of the letter zed, diapers instead of nappies, trucks instead of lorries, sidewalk instead of pavement! This really is s US product, designed for children in the US, and as such it should not e marketed in the UK, specially as there is no setting for UK/British English. Avoid.

GBI really do not like or dislike this… I really do not like or dislike this program. We use the apple app. I find the app is glitchy, doesn't give tickets for completed work, app says certain things aren't available. I only pay the monthly fee, because my son enjoys playing with the hamster cage and the bedroom, that he gets from collecting tickets. He occasionally will grab the iPad and do some of the educational parts. All and all he gets bored real quick with this. I guess it would be good for a parent with preschool kids or younger. I think the younger kids will like the cute songs, and the other stuff they offer. I have been a subscriber for at least a year, and in that year they have raised the cost to their monthly paying members, stating their program was worth more. Maybe it is worth it too some people, but for me I do not find enough helpful material. I wish They Would offer a section for special needs kids.....

GBSCAM website that fraudulently charges… SCAM website that fraudulently charges credit card. We cancelled this subscription via their website through some robot chat. Later we discovered they kept billing us. When trying to contact them we discovered there is literally no way to speak to anyone, no way to file a complaint. Even after cancelling a second time they billed us again. We had to contact our credit card company and file a dispute and it turned into a giant mess. A legitimate company does not operate this way. BEWARE of this fraudulent company.

GBReally Helpful during this time. There's so many negative reviews I thought it was only fair I give mine. When lockdown started last year I was looking for some help with any home learning for my 6 year old daughter. The site looked pretty interesting and I signed up for the free month. I think it took about £1.50 for the registration fee which I thought was OK. I've had that from other overseas online programmes / software which I've also joined with so I wasn't too worried. My daughter started to use it and I was really happy. It provided her with some essential educational topics and so after the first month I signed for the year. I paid in full with a really good promotional discount. My daughter has loved it. For the price I paid I have been more than happy for what It has gave us. Even though now my daughter is back in school a couple of days a week, we still have it here for some extra learning. She has it on the I Pad and on my Desktop. She can easily access it herself on the I Pad and quite often she shows me how well she is doing on it. They seem to keep updating it which is good as she doesn't get bored. There's lots of different things to do on it which covers all the essentials. I wouldn't say it's good enough to be the only learning platform for any child but as an extra it's been a godsend. I'm keeping my membership for another year. It's been really useful and to be honest she learns more on here sometimes than her zoom classes at school which sometimes seem like organised chaos. It looks like it hasn't been everyone's cup of tea looking at the reviews but for me it's been a lifesaver.

GBDo not trust this company I signed up for a free trial of ABC mouse through a cashback website about a month ago but thought I had cancelled it. Then today with no prior warning that my subscription was due I got a notification from Paypal that I had paid $12.99 to Age of Learning. I promptly went on the ABC mouse website and also downloaded the app hoping to find a way to cancel my subscription. Both are very basic and there seems to be no way to cancel the subscription through either route.
