Money Supermarket vs moneysupermarket.com[edit]

Should the article title not be moneysupermarket.com rather than 'Money Supermarket' since it is the name of the company ? Besides, 'Money Supermarket' look like a noun rather rather than a name and give the company a (no doubt intended but undeserved) universal connotation.

- It should. This is the name of the company, and the title used on its site and adverts.

Biggest IPO[edit]

I removed this from the article " As at 2012,it remains the biggest internet initial public offering in Europe^{[citation needed]}. " since with very little effort I was able to find 3 other European IPO's that utterly dwarfed moneysupermarket.com

Sorry Jason, but I'm not sure how these IPOs can be called "internet" IPOs - they might be tech and communications companies, but I don't think that's what the statement above refers to.

I've found this piece in the Financial Times that states it was the biggest Internet IPO in London. I'd suggest the following wording for that paragraph, linking to the FT piece:

"In June 2007 Duncan Cameron left the business selling his 47% stake to Simon Nixon for £162m[4] and in July 2007 the company was listed on the London Stock Exchange.[5] At the time it had a market capitalisation of £843m, the biggest of any internet company listed in London, with Nixon releasing £101m and retaining 54.5% of the business.[6]"

However, I would recommend keeping the Telegraph link as well because the FT is pay walled. D51386 (talk) 11:22, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New logo[edit]

The company logo has changed. Can someone with the know how upload the new one? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.27.154.22 (talk) 22:45, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Websites: Mid Importance[edit]

I've categorised this as "Mid-Importance" in the WP Websites, not the company list which I'm still not sure about. I think it's justified on the popularity of the site both worldwide and in the UK in particular. It could be argued that it deserves only a "low" status. However, having read over the guidelines for "low" priority sites, Moneysupermarket.com does not appear to fit. If anything, other websites in the "mid" category should in fact be raised to "high" priority. D51386 (talk) 15:30, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
