Corrections Policy

We work hard to get things right, but no publisher is perfect. When we make a mistake, we fix it openly and quickly. This policy explains what counts as a correction, how to report one, and how we handle it. It sits alongside our Editorial Guidelines and Fact-Checking Policy. Last updated: 15 June 2026.

Trust depends on what you do when you are wrong, not just on getting things right in the first place. We would rather correct an error in public than quietly leave it, or pretend it never happened. If we have published something inaccurate, we will put it right.

A correction is a fix to a genuine factual error, such as a wrong licence detail, an incorrect bonus figure, a misstated law, or a wrong date or name. We treat that differently from two other things: a routine update, where a fact was right when published but has since changed, and a minor edit, such as fixing a typo or a broken link, which we make without ceremony. The more material the error, the more openly we note the correction.

If you spot something that looks wrong, please tell us. The more specific you can be, the faster we can check it. Helpful details include the page, the exact statement you are questioning, and a source if you have one. You can reach us through our contact page.

When an error is reported or found, we check the claim against a reliable primary source. If it is wrong, we correct it. For a significant factual correction, we make the change and, where appropriate, note that the content has been corrected and when. For minor fixes we simply make the change. Either way, the goal is the same: the page should be accurate for the next reader.

Much of what we publish is about a moving target. Bonuses are withdrawn, payment limits change, and laws are amended. Keeping a page current is an update, not an admission of error, and we refresh our reviews and guides regularly for exactly this reason. We revise the visible “last updated” date when we make a substantive change.

We only change a publication or update date when we have genuinely made a substantive change to the content. We do not bump dates simply to make a page look fresher than it is. An honest date is part of being trustworthy.

To report an error or ask about a correction, please get in touch. We read what readers send us, and we are grateful for the catch.
