I had a subscription for Steve Allens podcasts so I could listen at a convenient time, now my sub has expired, and won't renew, I am cheerfully told I can access by downloading the LBC app. Not possible! I keep getting the message to update. My iPad is an ipad2 and does not have the capacity to update so now Unless I am willing to set my alarm for 4am every morning, No More Steve Allen for me😬. Who. Are these people who have to keep messing about with stupid useless updates. We can't all afford new iPads. Do you have to jeep forcing your senseless 'improvements?' On us. We didn't ask for them. Disgruntled!

On the whole LBC is the tops in broadcasting impartial views from a wide spectrum of presenters from the likes of Ian Dale, Tom Swarbrick and recently Louis Goodall I find particularly entertaining. This is combined with a more light hearted evening / early morning slot filled by the legend that is Nick Abbott usually followed by another legend Clive Bull and an up and coming legend Ian Paine . Nick Ferrari starts the day with his right leaning yet professionally journalistic account of current events , but then I find the more popular elements of the day a little too propagandist especially James O’Brien who sets his own agenda and blocks anyone questioning him by either making them look a fool or , if that fails , talks over them and confuses them with further questions , or if he knows he is beaten , just cuts them off . I’d like to see him in a debate where he doesn’t control the microphone . I used to really like Sheila Fogarty who follows at 1pm but recently she’s started making glib comments about men which, if were made about women by a male presenter would probably result in disciplinary . Saying that she’s a very good presenter , she just needs to be more balanced in her approach . On the whole though as long as the presenter tries to provide a fair balance between left and right wing views I’m happy and I’m happy with LBC more than not ! Paula in Twickenham

Catch up option is difficult to get working, it does allow 20s jumping, but cannot keep downloads for more than a week, also the “walled garden” nature means that if you listen to podcasts from other sources, you need to keep switching between apps... we also lose the ability to pay for a download that don’t contain adverts.——For those who get lost with subscribing/downloading of shows (and for feedback for the developers)... The app works in two different ways - First, there an overview area (bottom bar shows Stations, Music For, and My Downloads), where the Stations take you into a completely different side to the app (focused entirely on that station), which shows a small “G Home” icon in the top right (this is the thing to take you back to the overview area).To subscribe to a station, you need to login (from the overview area, using the small cog icon in the top right), then “go to” a station, find a show from the “Schedule + Catch Up” page (select an old date first), then press “Subscribe”... it will ask you to enable notifications with no explanation as to why - it won’t work if you decline.I assume they are using notifications to trigger the downloads of new shows (rather than the app polling the server every 30 minutes), but just as likely, they could be doing this to annoy you with notifications (i.e. the “look at me, you haven’t used me for at least a day” problem).

I have subscribed to the LBC catch up service for years and was very happy to pay a subscription fee for this service. Recently bought a new phone and found out that the app no longer is supported and one now has to use this newer and greatly inferior version. Every time you turn it in you have to watch an introductory video advert and the lengthy news, travel and advertisements which used to be deleted no all remain in the recording. I listen a lot when I am driving and, because I don’t want to be reaching for my phone whilst trying to keep my eyes on the road, I am now forever listening to tedious and out of date information which hugely detracts from my enjoyment. Surely LBC must realise that people subscribed to the service to hear their favourite presenters, not several day old traffic reports!! Please bring back the service as you used to provide it; I would be more than happy to pay a higher subscription if that would be necessary.
