I feel really stupid asking this but here goes. Embarassed

You know products that are listed on Ciao under partner sites. Is there any way to write a review on one of them? Embarassed

I recently asked Ciao to add a product and they e-mailed me back saying no as it was already listed. However when I searched again it was on a partner site - Amazon. Obviously if you click on the product link it takes you straight to Amazon, so I'm presuming there's no way to review any of those products, but I'm not sure.

It's annoying because there are several products that I'd like to review but they're all on partner sites.

So, I'd really appreciate it if anyone could confirm/correct me on this. Thanks.

You can suggest a product using an Amazon link, but if it's not listed on Ciao, you can't write a review on it. But just go to the Amazon page of the product, copy the link and make a suggestion. Also a link from Amazon.uk seems to work better in my experience than say a .com address (though it probably works fine too).

I think you need to click on the 'ciao only results' tab when you do a search, which should then show you the ciao link to the product rather than the clickthrough to try and trick non members into buying from whatever site the products are on.

I would just post it anywhere on Ciao as no one reads the reviews anyway.

I would just ignore Angus as no one listens to him anyway. Razz Apparently he sells soap, but I've never seen mention of it. Neutral

I have a great respect for Angus, because he makes me look good. He sells soap because his life is like a soap.... Twisted Evil

My suggestion of searching for a made up word is good here. Then when you get the suggestion part just put in what you actually want.

I had this argument with Ciao before regarding their partner sites and eventually they have added several "other partner" site products to their category lists. I just email the feedback address.
