Advertising/wikification[edit]

I've had a go at wikifying the article and removing marketing bumpf. Still a ways to go yet, but a start.Saganaki- 01:13, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A note to editors working at Investors Chronicle, Pearson plc and its subsidiaries[edit]

Please do not add commercial material to The Chronicle. While objective prose about products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for advertising or promotion.

Please note also, that Wikipedia discourages organisations editing their own material because of the conflict of interest this involves. However, I'd suggest that if you want to put information about your company on wikipedia you take a look at Wall street journal as an example of a properly sourced wikipedia article which does not contain marketing weasel words.Saganaki- 03:00, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Departure of Matthew Vincent, Editor: You might want to mention that under Matthew Vincent ABC circulation fell from 51,000 (Press release from Pearson on his appointment) to 35,000 (see ABC Certificate). Mr. Vincent ceased to be editor with the 24 August 2007 issue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Richard crosfield (talkcontribs) 17:16, 22 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Financial Times connexion[edit]

The History section says that the magazine 're-established its connection with the Financial Times' in 1978, but I see no mention of a previous connexion. Could someone explain? Sdoerr (talk) 16:14, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Secret postal address[edit]

I received a letter from them saying that they were putting the price of subscription next year, shortly after they had taken a direct debit from my bank account. I want to write to them saying I want to cancel my subscription, but there is no address given either anywhere on the letter they sent me or anywhere on their website, not on the contact page or anywhere else. A web search has not found it either. The address on the back of the envelope is apparently merely for a bulk-mailing company. This seems to me to be an indication of dodgy dealing and bad customer service. Update: in the small print in the magazine itself it says "Invesstors Chronicle Subscriptions, PO Box 326, Sittingbourne, Kent, ME9 8FA". Another update: the latest copy of the magazine says subscribers should contact "Investors Chronicle Subscriptions at Investors Chronicle, Tower House, Sovereign Park, Lathkill Street, Market Harborough, Leistershire LE16 9EF." This is the same address as "CDS Global", a company that does "business process outsourcing". So they've re-arranged the deck-chairs. 92.3.52.248 (talk) 14:12, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Circulation[edit]

ABC at abc.org.uk says the circulation was 32,720 from July to December 2017, down from the 2007 figures above, but up from the 2016 figures given on the article page. 92.3.52.248 (talk) 14:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
