We are committed to accuracy. When we make a mistake or update a factual claim, we log it here — publicly, dated, and with a clear explanation of what changed and why.
We believe in transparency — even when it means admitting we were wrong. This page records every substantive correction we have made to our content, including data updates, factual errors, and changes to cost figures or advice. Minor typographical fixes are not logged, but any change that affects the meaning of a claim or recommendation is.
Full log, update policy, and how we handle post‑publication changes below.
Every substantive change we make is recorded here, with the date, the page affected, the original content, the correction, and the reason.

This log is updated whenever we make a substantive change. Minor typographical fixes, formatting adjustments, and non‑factual copy edits are not recorded. If you see a change that we have not logged, please let us know.
We treat corrections as part of our editorial commitment, not as a failure.
We update content when:
When we update a page, we:
dateModified in the page's schema markup.We also review all pages at least once a year to ensure they remain accurate. Our editorial standards explain our overall approach to accuracy and independence.
We don't make changes lightly. Every correction goes through a verification process.
When we identify a potential error:
If a correction involves a previously published percentage or count, we also note the old and new values in the log, and we ensure that any pages that cited the old value are updated accordingly. Our data verification page explains our sourcing principles in more detail.
To illustrate how we handle corrections, here are a few notable examples.
These are the kinds of changes we log — not cosmetic edits, but substantive shifts that affect decision‑making. We believe this transparency is essential to building trust.
We welcome your feedback. If you spot something that looks wrong, please tell us.
You can report an error via our contact page. Please include:
We investigate every report. If we confirm an error, we will make the correction and log it here. If we disagree, we will explain why. We aim to respond to all error reports within 5 working days.
We also encourage you to review our editorial standards and data verification pages to understand how we maintain accuracy.
We log every substantive change — i.e., any change that affects the meaning of a claim, advice, or data. Minor typographical corrections, formatting tweaks, and non‑substantive copy edits are not logged.
Every page carries a dateModified in its schema markup and often a visible "Last updated" note near the footer. We also list major updates in this log.
We welcome debate. If you believe a correction is incorrect, please contact us with your evidence. We will re‑examine the issue and, if warranted, revise our position and update the log accordingly.
If we cite a third‑party source (e.g., a TSB or a market report) and that source is later found to be erroneous, we will update our content and note the correction. Our primary reliance is on our own verified data, but we cross‑reference many sources.
