Ratings and reviews

Used to be a free news application, but switched to commercial fully, almost every article became "subscribe to read till the end". Not discussing the articles themselves, even though "le Monde" name is no guarantee, and I do understand you need to survive by making some money. But very honestly, this amount of money for just an app with all its limitations, sorry but this is a total rip off.

Quite good to brush up on your French if you are a mid A2 level, but it is very expensive and I am not sure I can justify the cost especially with cheaper and free options, consider that for 17 euros I can buy a real book and keep it in a collection, I can get a good meal for lunch or dinner, I can buy a French textbook and many other things. I can read news on other sites for free which really makes this method of getting information obsolete especially since there are ads.

DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!! Do not be taken in by the offer of 8 weeks free followed by a £15 monthly payment - i tried to subscribe but whenever i try to log in it says 'non abonné' although it will not let me subscribe again. I have emailed Le Monde customer service twice with no response and now they are taking the monthly payment. I am furious!! Apparently to cancel i have to send a form by registered post to France! The paper ia excellent but this is just a rip-off.
