Would you pay to go ad-free on the Talk App?

[TimMumsnet]

Hi guys, I’ve got a bit of an unusual question, bear with me!

Some of you have mentioned you would be willing to pay to go ad-free, so we’d like to know your collective thoughts if we offered ad-free Talk in the iOS app, with some extra benefits.

On the iOS Talk app, if you could have:
- Ad-free Talk
- Increased allowance of photos
- Extra Mumsnet Emoticons

Would you be willing to pay a monthly subscription? If so, what would be a fair amount? This wouldn’t affect any of the existing Talk features, which everyone would continue to get for free.

I'm on Android so I can't open the pictures or see any pictures if a poster has posted more than one so I certainly wouldn't pay to post more pics that others who also use android can't see.
I have loads of emojis at my disposal already and if the ads start to get on my nerves I would just leave the forum.
So in a nutshell....no I would not pay a monthly sub.

No I wouldn't however I feel like if it was an option the ads might ramp up so you'd be tempted. I'd be sad to go but I would just leave at that point.

No.

No.

Maybe a one off payment of a quid or something but NO WAY I would pay anything monthly.

As an android user if it was available to me I wouldn't ever pay. If there were more ads to try move people over to a paid subscription I would simply stop using Mumsnet

I'd pay a one-off of maybe £2.49 to buy an ad-free app, but I wouldn't pay monthly. I'm an android user anyway.

No. There is absolutely nothing that would make me pay any money to use MN. I'd just stop using it if I got fed up (which I have done; I dip in and out)

No.

I'm on here all the time but if you started asking for money I'd have to go elsewhere. Dunno why really, but I guess I feel it should be free?

Why would people leave though?

Are we running short of initiatives to bring in new revenue MN??

“Thanks for your answers guys”

Really?

If you were addressing a crowd of 95% men would you say “thanks for your answers girls!”

Nope and if the trade off was more adds in the free version I think my time would be spent not on Mumsnet

looks down Nope, I definitely don’t have a penis.

I'd happily pay to be ad free but the app is shite AFAIK so being forced to use it would put me off.

Truthfully no, I'd just stop using the forum if the ads became too annoying.

Guys is not the opposite of girls.

While we're on the subject, is there any chance you'll improve the god awful android app?

Guys is not the opposite of girls.

I don’t agree and therefore guys is the opposite of girls. See, isn’t that how it works? Btw, women not girls.

I’m currently watching that advert for Howden’s kitchens and wishing I could afford one. 😁

No

No sorry

I would for £2.50 a month if it also included the option to see only the OPs posts also

No

No, but I would pay a one off fee to download a decent app that actually works, even if it continued to show me ads. The current Android one is pretty shocking (no offence) .
