Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Would give them less if possible. Terrible site and if you manage to find content amongst the sea of ads, you'll just find vile clickbait rubbish.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

I can’t really say much about the content quality because in spite of having a reasonably modern iPad, the site never seems to fully load. Scrolling constantly stalls and anything one might try to re... See more

There are so many adverts it's difficult to read any articles, especially on a mobile device. There are at least 2 pop-ups present always and the articles are broken up with yet more adverts making it... See more

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Simply an embarrassment to journalism and an insult to the Cornish people. Sensationalist headlines, a lack of research on many subjects they choose to 'report' on, and a total and utter absence of wr... See more

EVIL

This online "News" paper for cornwall is diabolical and should be fully investigated and shut down in my opinon, it should not be operating and i am shocked it has not yet been sued by 100 people let alone not someone ! Talk about slanderous publishing !
And since when is it legal to publish peoples names addresses and personal details? How are they getting away with it? And how is it legal to obtain personal confidental infomation of familys involved in car accidents etc ... from a policeman in cornwall from within bodmin police station regarding accidents, deaths etc?? Surky thats illegal and should be investigated by the IOPC , And how vile and evil are these people who do this and then write incorrect articles regarding deaths, accidents and people in cornwall who have died and harrass the familys and publish the familys details and names etc? Causing significant distress and without consent of the actual people involved , is anyone in this damn county or country going to put a stop to this monstrosity?? Its sick you should be disgraced you are a vile evil scum and these reviews expose your unlawful behaviour

why can't I access Cornwall live

Once again this site isn't working. If they think I will buy their local newspaper instead ... no way. I am not signing in for access as they just want to feed my info to all and sundry. Anyone who is considering it needs to read the small print before first..

Absolutely crap

Absolutely crap, rolls and rolls of shit adverts, completely unreadable news, thats if its any news worth reading.
Now you cant even get onto the web pages unless you accept cookies or pay to reject, like most other sites have become now.
There is hardly anything now you can read without paying to reject.
The news sites are a waste of space now.

Absolute joke

Absolute joke. ‘News’ is often weak at best. Site is littered with ads and click bait. Complete waste of time.

They wouldn’t know the truth if it…

They wouldn’t know the truth if it slapped them in the face. They have an agenda to mislead, misrepresent people all around Cornwall to suit their own narrative. It’s time they were closed down😀

Horrible people writing false…

Horrible people writing false information about my deceased mother's death, 8 bottles of wine is a lie. The information my mother's friend and I said that they put in the article was a lie. What do you get out of this?! A good story for you to write utter rubbish while family are grieving! Absolute disgraceful!

Rubbish

Impossible to load properly as so much clickbait and advertising. When you can read an article it’s as if it’s been written by a badly educated teenager using slang and incorrect punctuation!

Wouldn’t even give 1 star false news.

Wouldn’t even give 1 star, Cornwall live is not news , they make up story’s , report on nonsense , get any facts incorrect and are absolute liars in my opinion, I myself have worked within the news sector BBC radio live on air for the southwest area, I am shocked that Cornwall live has not been sued for grosse misconduct, breaches of privacy , data protection breaches , not reporting on actual issues like the fraud and misconduct and human trafficking and sexual abuse within Bodmin police station amongst Bodmin neighbour hood team which effects public safety within the area of Cornwall yet Cornwall live regularly report false story’s or grossly misleading story’s with twisted facts, what’s worse Cornwall live breach data and privacy laws regarding individuals used in their story’s without permission , these story’s are then published with personal details, names , addresses which not only is a breach of privacy but could result in harassment of the peoples details and their safety they are publishing without consent , story’s concerning people’s deaths in accidents are being published where family’s of deceased have wished to remain anonymous or have not wished their loved ones accident have public coverage yet Cornwall live ignores this and family’s wishes regardless, they use underhand and immoral techniques to publish story’s which do not have roots in truth or are greatly exaggerated or facts are completely incorrect.
Cornwall live news sources are very very underhand and not to be trusted , again breaches in privacy and data which is resulting in issues regarding public safety for the names and details of the people who are being published with in false “news” story’s , sensationalising to gain readers yet this is morally wrong, underhand, illegal and would not be occurring to this extent anywhere else in the country without public outcry.
Other news teams and papers are being contacted by Cornwall live it is believed with story’s Cornwall live have been covering yet these story’s are not based in fact, are not correct in facts and are putting people in the public in the southwest at risk, or on the other hand Cornwall live will pick a Cornish person with roots in Cornwall and “big up” a story with no substance or little interest and make out the individual is high profile when this is not the case, usually this will be someone who’s personal friends with the team seeking stardom, it’s ridiculous and pathetic and should not be occurring, overall very very very unprofessional. Do. Not trust Cornwall live and if you are a victim of Cornwall live please be assured you are not alone and others within the news sector are well aware of the misconduct and unprofessional behaviour associated with Cornwall live, please make your complaints known regarding Cornwall live .

I won't even give it 1 star.

I won't even give it 1 star.
There are many interesting articles, but adverts you can't remove keep blocking the article you are trying to read.
Waste of time.
