Here’s what’s coming up this week: 5 July 2021.
Welcome to the first of our series of weekly roundups!
Each week we’ll recap the week that was (starting next week) and the week that will be here on Which? Conversation, including key comments and contributions, your ideas, and what’s coming in the weeks to follow.
We’ll also aim to keep you updated in the comments on what’s new around Which?, including the latest consumer news, updated guides, and areas we’re looking to hear more of your experiences and opinions.
As this is our first roundup, here’s how these these will work:
- Comments on each roundup will only be open for that week (Monday – Sunday).
- We’ll close comments when the next roundup is posted, and signpost you to the latest conversation.
What’s happening this week
We hope you’ll join in our live scams Q&A on Thursday at 2pm. We’re welcoming Which? experts to the table to answer your questions about scams. Feel free to pop your questions in the comments, and drop by the comments on or after 2pm this Thursday to take part in the discussion.
Other discussions we’ll be starting this week:
- Monday: Do you know what to do in the event your data is compromised in a breach? Today’s topic, with thanks to Michael Tomlinson.
- Wednesday: Watch out for fake NHS emails and texts – with thanks to Lauren Merryweather.
This schedule may change, so we’ll do our best to keep you updated in the comments on this post.
Question of the week
Inspired by a conversation with the folks over at Which? Switch, this week’s question is about your utility bills:

We’d love to hear more about your preference. Do you feel you get a better deal with a package or by organising your bills separately? Is the convenience of having all your bills in one worth paying more for?
Let’s talk in the comments.
What’s going on for you this week?
Weekly round-ups are your spaces to start a discussion on what’s happening for you this week. Want to share a consumer news story you’ve read, or talk to others in the community about an experience you’ve had? Start that conversation here.
While there’s no set topic, we ask you keep the focus on the consumer issues you’re experiencing right now. If you’d like to start a topic less focused on consumer issues, please do so in the Lobby.
As everywhere on the site, the Community Guidelines and Terms and Conditions apply. Please adhere to these and help us to welcome as many diverse perspectives to the conversation as possible.
ℹ A few tips on how to make the comment thread easier to navigate
Make your topic clear and easy for others to find.
Starting a comment with a clear topic line helps people scrolling through to find what you’re talking about more easily.
You may also want to use HTML to make it stand out, for example by bolding or underlining your text (using <b> or <u>, respectively).
If you want to respond to a topic someone else has started, reply to the original parent comment using the Reply button rather than posting a new parent comment on the same topic.
This helps keep conversations on a single topic together as our off-topic space doesn’t yet support individual message threads
Feel free to move the conversation around.
If you’ve started a discussion on a topic we have an existing conversation for, we’ll suggest shifting the conversation there. Equally if you’re in any topical conversation and the conversation goes far from the topic being discussed, feel free to move it in this space.
