Suggestions for further Mumsnet Premium offers

Poll creation. Proper one, not just the AIBU one.

Edit function, limited by 30 minutes (or whatever time)

Premium only board

Ability to turn off further comments/close thread.

Premium only competitions

I never read the daily round up or any blogs.

I think premium needs to be really different from the free version for it to be worth paying for. I don't care about discounts and offers and I certainly wouldn't pay for it that - I'm sure I can find plenty of deals on the Internet should I need them so using that as an enticement isn't attractive to me (or more people I would imagine)

I also don't care about ads - I've never really noticed them and I bet the vast majority of people don't either. Also it has to be NO ads not LESS ads surely?

The USP of Premium has to be better/exclusive site functionality. Filter by OP will be for everyone, why? Why not save all those features that everyone moans about not having and make them premium features? Edit button, filter by OP, filter by user, and members only boards.

I wouldn’t sign up for any offer, and it seems some are generic.

I find the deluge of offers around enough noise as it is.

I said when this first came out, I only use the forums, and there are many out there. We are the content and we are what most of us are here for.

I'm not interested in blogs, or written articles - mumsnet best of (advertising) and daily roundup (should at least be automated, and if not, its not really needed)

Make your staff base smaller .

How does www.moneysavingexpert.com/ make money? and you're not?

I would not say every case is the same but I would assume the majority of Mumsnet premium subscribers have a fair amount ‘spare’ at the end of the month, and I would presume to be on a ‘higher‘ income
This is what I don't understand. No or fewer ads for premium members who can afford to click through and buy the products leaving full ads for the people who can't afford to buy the products.
That's not the best marketing idea I've ever heard 😕
The ability to part quote would be good. Every other forum I'm on can do that and have done for years.
The two tier membership doesn't sit easy with me.

I think the problem with giving subscribers priority to product tests would primarily be that the people offering the product to test want a cross-section from all walks of society. I would not say every case is the same but I would assume the majority of Mumsnet premium subscribers have a fair amount ‘spare’ at the end of the month, and I would presume to be on a ‘higher‘ income.

I would think that companies would like information from this bracket, but also from the bracket below that don’t have a lot spare at the end of the month, but their product is THAT good that it would be worth budgeting for IYSWIM?

I would absolutely love to subscribe to Mumsnet premium, but it’s either that or Netflix for the kids, and I know which keeps them quieter

And I hate “fake” offers, where’re the money is off full price only, but a bit of shopping around can win you massive discounts anyway.

This with bells on

I don’t have babies or young kids, so please try to tailor some offers for me.

I’d like takeaway or restaurant deals, mini breaks or spas and audible deals. Mumsnet £1.99 book of the week would be good.

I'd pay if I had a better understanding of (and then agreed with!) what my money was doing. MN is a godsend and needs protecting but please tell us what the money will actually do.

Roll not role

@lootsharks agree, test that it works on the riffraff then role it out to the elite if it does.

None of those attract me. I don't live in the UK so most of them don't apply to me, and my kids aren't babies any more. I also don't like the idea of paying for fairly basic features.

To be honest, I'm going to be pretty hard to attract as I can get so much free user-generated content that I can't really get my head round paying. I'd like free upgrades on travel!

[quote MichaelMumsnet]@Imissmoominmama thanks for the suggestions, we'll bear those in mind.
@Bluntness100 More features (including filter by OP) are coming soon.[/quote]
I find it annoying that you have made filter by OP a premium feature after many of us who beta tested the app for you tested this feature out and have now had it removed.

This is my first time on mumsnet in a couple of months now, shocking to see the premium hasn’t been improved much and the offers are shite. Thought they would have sorted it out a bit by now.

Many moons ago there used to be lots of fab offers and free trials and such on mumsnet. I went through a stage of being really lucky in getting picked and got a years free sky (all channels and features) and a cordless animal dyson vacuum cleaner (got to keep it after uploading reviews etc) amongst other things.

Do things like that still go on mumsnet? I must look more carefully.

So I was used to test the filter function. It was decent, certainly not something I'd pay for. It was then taken away when the beta expired and now you want me to pay for it? No thanks.

It doesn't sit right with me that you want people to pay (Premium) to get features that are really quite basic (filtering, decent quoting, hide poster etc) that should have been available years ago. Maybe have some offers or experiences or something else for Premium members but basic features should be free and available to all.

actually what would be GREAT for all of us (subscribers or not) is a poster name lock - make it impossible to change a name on a thread.

I change my name every month or so, and i have an 'outing' name, and weight loss boards name, various reasons. It wont stop people signing in and out, but would deter the casual sock puppet

I only ever use the app so can't vote.

I'd like to vote.

all of those offers or similar can be found using Google, and you dont have to pay for that?

including 10% off Bugaboo.com, £100 off Octopus energy when you switch, 3 months free superfast broadband with Zen, £80 John Lewis voucher when you sign up to Admiral insurance and up to £100 off holidays with Holidays Please.

Here's the Octopus one, its £50 off, by using a referral link - ( I know your one is £100, but in reality so is this one, just split by 2 households)
How does it work? Use my Octopus referral code by following the link when you switch to Octopus Energy. After you pay your first bill £50 will be credited to your octopus energy account.

Once you have chosen to switch to Octopus Energy as a new customer, you ’ll be given £50 credit on your first bill and your own personal referral code to share with friends and families. For every person that switches with your code, you both get £50 credited towards your next bill. It takes just two minutes to switch and your code is effective immediately. (I would be delighted if you use mine to get you started, thank you!)

I wouldn't sign up to premium to get 'bonuses' which mean that I will need to change my broadband, energy company, insurance, etc.

the option of choosing which username to start a thread as without having to go into my account to change usernames, if I use a name change on a thread then for whatever reason then for that thread to "remember" which username I posted with and to default to that username on that thread to prevent any name change fails (would stop people sockpuppetting too).

These features would make the site experience immeasurably better for all posters. I'd be annoyed if they (or indeed any site improvements) were only available to paying subscribers.

So I suppose I'm thinking Premium benefits should be non-site based. Free gifts, whatever.

Is voting accessible on the App now?
