I gave mumsnet £50 as I was worried about them closing down as so many use them for support. I had no idea just how much money they made because they run it like its a small cottage company or charity struggling to get by as it runs so badly and keeps getting hacked. Anyway I got baned last week for talking about meghan markle. I didn't say anything bad more that the language used was like finding freedom and I don't know what to believe. I thought there was a glitch with the site when I couldn't login, then no password reset was being sent and they've wiped my account without even an email after taking my £50. And mumsnet premium is a load of tosh, nothing premium about it. I wouldn't trust that site again.

I've never posted on Mumsnet but read several threads there in order to try and help me make a decision about whether to become a teacher. I have to say I wouldn't want to work at a school where a large number of students' parents would be on Mumsnet ... some of the posters sounded so demanding. Maybe it's a class thing (I remember one of them saying "ham has no place in a child's lunchbox because it's PROCESSED") but still
I agree. The teacher bashing on there is disgusting. If you’ve ever worked in a school of with kids in general you will know exactly the kind of parents they are, the ones who’s precious little people darlings can never do any wrong and complain about the most ridiculous and petty things imaginable.
Oh and as a teaching assistant I would always choose to work in the schools in the rougher deprived areas than the those in the more affluent ‘posher‘ places. 99.9% of the time they are better behaved and have better manners. The parents don’t look at you like tit they’ve just trodden in either.

I was a lurker but I coudn't stand all that toe curling dh, dd, ds nonsense. Absolute cringeworthy. Someone once referred to her 'fd ' and someone asked her what fd meant. She said it meant favourite daughter and they all started having a pop at her. She came back with, 'but I thought all mums had a favourite 
Sorry to hear that. I can’t remember if it was on here or on an old thread on mum’s chat that warned this would happen and the moderation basically said “yes, if you pay for premium and get banned, you will not get your money back”. I’ve been banned several times (but to be fair, I deserved it
)And I don’t know if anyone has noticed, but has anyone else seen the poster who makes constant threads on there slagging off Tattle and asking things like “AIBU to think Tattle is mean and horrible to poor instagrammers and influencers”? Normally they get told they ABU but the same person (I think) started a recent one in Chat and got mostly sympathetic replies how this place is pure hell and spiteful
I’ll grab the link, it will probably still be in my history......Oh ok, I can’t link to any MN threads, I just tried but they get auto blocked on here with a sassy message.
.I don't know why but all the "AIBU" and so on threads seem obsessed with bodily functions, not for the squeamish
Unbelievable. I think threads about baby names on here is far more polite and lighthearted than the ones on mumsnet. Some of them are downright cruel about name choices.Sorry to hear that.

Anyone else get a begging email from Mumsnet on Christmas Eve? I wouldn't mind but they banned me after I posted wanted some help getting out of a toxic relationship! But still ask me for money?! duck right off! Their site provides little worth other than for people to be unpleasant to people and for trolls to post crap. Of all the businesses shouldn't a website be doing well in covid 19?! I hope they go bankrupt.

Yes I did. I hit unsubscribe!
Still, it shows that even after they delete your account they keep your personal details you signed up with (is that even allowed?)
Meanwhile the woman who founded it lives in a 2 million pound house with her odious husband ian katz who is head of C4 programming. He used to be editor of the toxic guardian so that says it all really.
I used to tangentially know the co-founder, Carrie Longton (we’re from the same place) and know people still in contact with her. The rumour was always that she’d done the lions share of the work but Justine wanted the credit and the limelight.
i suspect in recent years with all the scandals, Carrie is probably quite happy about that!

So true! I once posted about having been with my partner / lived with them for a couple of years, and got absolutely slated, ridiculous! Never posted again but lurked for many years. Now I prefer a good book or to come on here
Justine and Mumsnet sure do have some cheek making so much money for years and still shamelessly begging.
Ad rates and marketing budgets fell quickly in march but then by April had recovered so they've no doubt made a good profit this year.
Mumsnet have had hundreds of thousands of pounds from tax payers for furloughing their inefficient online company that didn't warrant it and had cash donations from people that were taken in by the manipulative begging.
That site is so full of total bs, I'm not sure if it's employees doing it to whip up attention or if they encourage it for the traffic and don't delete stuff they know is fake from multiple account people. Either way the end result is the same and makes the company look shady.

I think they either invite or turn a blind eye to journalists posting for articles too.
Whoops! People aren’t happy with that email.

Looks like they "accidentally" sent out their spammy begging Christmas Eve email to every single email address they have 
so millions?
Apparently it's been fixed, err that's not how emails work. All that spam has gone out and can't just be fixed like that
their internal processes are always a tit show. Micheal again said on the 26th don't worry its all been fixed now 
. People claim it's been sent out to email addresses that were supposed to have been wiped years ago and removed from their database.

I received that email and was confused as I had been banned a while back. When I was banned and didn’t know how it worked and tried to sign up again with the same email address I was getting error messages so emailed them and asked why/what was going on etc. They emailed me back saying they had no record of the email address I was emailing from and perhaps I had signed up to netmums by mistake? (Yes, this is actually what they said to me). And now, 16 months later, I get the spammy email to the address they said they had no record of. Liars.Looks like they "accidentally" sent out their spammy begging Christmas Eve email to every single email address they have
