Why Keir Starmer’s government wants to make it easier for you to cancel Netflix - Which?

Ever struggled to cancel your Netflix subscription? Wanted to stop the recipe box delivery you started a year ago and don't know how? We sit down with Kate Dearden MP, Minister for Employment Rights and Consumer Protection to address 'subscription traps' and a new crackdown set to force retailers to become more transparent and their products and services easier to cancel. With World Cup ticket prices in the headlines we ask when action will be taken to tackle expensive tickets here in the UK, while we also ask why dangerous and illegal products are still for sale on online marketplaces despite laws being in place to stop this happening. At Which, we have campaigned for tighter controls to prevent fake reviews online - we ask what action we can expect to be taken? As well as asking why consumers are still being let down through rip-off and often misleading pricing practices. 01.00 - Concerns around 'deregulation' which could harm consumers 01.56 - Dangerous and illegal products for sale on online marketplaces 04.20 - Tradesperson injured by dangerous ladder 06.25 - 'Subscription traps' and why it will soon be easier to cancel 10.36 - Why 'drip-pricing' lead to confusing and unfair prices 11.35 - When will the government act on fake reviews and restore trust for consumers 13.40 - Will the government be able to commit to action? 14.20 - Ticket prices and why ticket touts are damaging the live music industry 16.20 - Why wasn't legislation announced in the King's speech? 17.17 - We ask what the government hope to achieve by May 2027 #ticket #ticketprices #netflix #food #fake #fakereviews #food #illegal #injured #government #kierstarmer #dangerous #news
