Tell Us Your Gripe!

Complaints, Issues, Rants - Get your gripe published!

*** GO ON! TELL US WHAT REALLY GRINDS YOUR GEARS!! ***

Please use this page to suggest a new gripe. We can't guarantee that anything you submit will be published or remain in its original form, however great care will be taken to try and keep the text as close to your original submission as possible.

Please note, your email address WILL NOT be published, but it may be necessary to get in contact with you regarding the content of your gripe.

Here are some tips to help you write a good gripe

Keep your gripe to a reasonable size, ie. not too long and not too brief. Most full page gripes are at least 250 to 350 words. If your gripe is on the smaller side we may opt to publish it in the Quick Gripes section of the site.
Stay clear of highly controversial issues such as racism and advocacy against an individual, group or business. Regrettably terms and conditions outside our control would prevent us from publishing certain material - even though we really would like to do so.
Try to describe the issue naturally and constructively without resorting to insults and aggressive language. Your gripe is also an opportunity to stir up a thought provoking debate.
Focus on the topic that you wish to gripe about. Too many deviations from the subject make it difficult for the reader to understand what the gripe is about.
PLEASE check your spelling - more chance of getting published with a bit of effort!
