Very concerned about this company

Very concerned about this company. My husband received an invoice for £99.80 for a subscription he did not order.
Do not know where they got his name and address from but my husband has been retired due to ill health for over 10 years and has never heard of this company.
I phoned Agora and spoke to a lady named Anna who told me he had ordered the subscription, I told her there is no way he could have done this and she said she would speak to a colleague and cancel it.
No apology or explanation as to where they got his details. Very suspicious of their practices, beware and avoid.

Scammers, Don't use this service!

I am a Health and Safety Consultant, trying to run a Good Honest respectable business, and I was looking for some advice, I thought I would use a local company, signed up to the news letter, now I am being sent demands for payment, which now includes late payment fees, and threatening Debit Collection Agency's. I never used any of the services, so trust me, this company is a scam! I will be seeking advice from Trading Standards, and I will make sure that I never deal with sure unscrupulous individuals again.

Avoid!

If I could give negative review I would. I really hope these people sleep well at night. I was looking for ‘free’ advice as advertised to aid our small grass roots charity, and we are now being threatened with debt collection letters. Every penny we raise ourselves goes towards the animals in our care and companies like this get away with taking advantage of people every day.

The first I heard of Agora publications…

The first I heard of Agora publications was a letter sent to my home address combining aspects of my work address and my home address, and my pre married name. The initial letter was information that I owed a payment for 9 months of "subscription items" and it was being passed to a debt collector.
I contacted the company to discuss what this debt was and where it came from. I was informed that I had signed up to a CQC newsletter, and they had been sending it to my email. I expressed to them I had not received and someone had signed me up without my knowledge and not even knowing full details to which is was to be raised as query. I then received an email about 9 days later telling me I had the subscription, I'm paying the debt, and they will not talk about it anymore. On the same day I received a letter from CCS collect debt recovery.
While on this process I am speaking with citizens advice and the financial /consumer ombudsman teams.

Stay away from this company. If they contact you, you will have better support from the debt collection team. Don't waste your energy.

Good Afternoon David

Thank you for your feedback.

The information we provide is not misleading, we clearly advise in the first main paragraph of the order form that you are signing up for a 30 day free trial that you are required to cancel if you do not want to continue with the full subscription. The information you see has been voluntarily entered when you completed the order form. We reiterate the information in the confirmation email and we send reminder emails throughout the trial period.

Our Customer Service Team have confirmed they have received your payment and the account has been closed in full.

Unexpected Charges and Poor Transparency

I am writing this review to share my experience and warn others about Agora Business Publications. After reading several other reviews, I realised I am not alone. I seem to have fallen victim to what feels like a very misleading process.
I had no idea that I had supposedly subscribed to their product. On October 8th, 2025, I received an unexpected invoice for £99.80 via email, and I unsubscribed. To my surprise, a letter arrived at my home stating that my first payment was due on October 28th, 2025.
I called them on November 17th, 2025, but they were unable to give me a clear explanation for the charges, especially since I had already unsubscribed. Based on my experience, I find the company’s practices extremely concerning. Considering the number of similar reviews, I intend to escalate this issue and raise awareness about what many customers have described as deceptive behaviour.

Good Morning

Thank you for your feedback.

Our processes are not misleading. In the five bullets points above the order form we clearly advise that you are signing up for a 30 day free trial that needs cancelling if not required, you are provided with our contact information to request the cancellation and we also provide you with the cost of the full subscription to allow you to make an informed decision within the trial period about continuing with the full subscription. During the trial period you receive a confirmation email and several reminder emails. The information we have on our system was provided to us when you completed the order form.

Our Customer Service Team provided you with a full explanation of your order in the call of the 17th November.

Yours Sincerely,

BEWARE - This is a scam

This is a scam - DO NOT sign up for any mailings from this company.
If you sign up to the 30 day free trial they automatically put you onto a 30day credit account terms and invoice you. Even when you cancel they still invoice you and keep invoicing every month. Months and months later, they send a letter threatening debt action (obviously selling on the debt to debt agencies. This is a horrendous dishonest business model and this company should be shut down.

I thought I has signed up to a free…

I thought I has signed up to a free news letter, but as most on here have experienced I somehow ended up owing them over £100 for a newsletter I didn't want. I have glanced through the newsletter and it is AI generated rubbish. The way they think they trap you is tantamount to a scam. Beware have nothing to do with this company. I have no intention of paying them any money and the countless reviews on here will be very good supporting evidenece to dispute such payments. Scammers!!!

Money Grabbing Fraudsters

Money Grabbing Fraudsters - Buyer beware!
If you sign up to the 30 day free trial they automatically put you onto a 30day credit account terms and invoice you. If you don't pay, they don't cancel the subscription, they keep invoicing you instead. Months and months later, they send a letter threatening debt action.

Clearly this is a ploy to gain income in a dishonest manner by using their cleverly designed technicality.

Good Morning

The information provided in your review is not correct.

We do not have a process were customers are placed on a 30 day credit account and we do not advise that either verbally or in our literature. As advised when you called, some of our customers do pay on 30, 60 or 90 days payment terms, which is their company process, we believe that you have misunderstood the information provided on that call. All of our subscriptions can be cancelled at any point and you only pay for the publications sent up to the point of cancellation. The trial ended in February and despite sending 3 invoices and 6 reminders we did not receive any contact until the 16.9.2025. As per the Terms of the Oder received in January the payment required is for the publications sent up to the point of cancellation which you have confirmed in your email to our Customer Service Team that you have received.

Yours Sincerely,
Your Agora Team

DO NOT entertain this company with your email address. It will result in your company getting an invoice.
unless you unsubscribe you will be charged.
we have just had our invoice credited in full - "They (Agora) checked their email system and noted emails were sent but appeared to be clicked on 6 times as open all at the same time, which indicates to them (Agora) our (Meridian) security system rejected the email so I (Meridian) wouldn't have seen it."

it is disappointing that Agora uses this practice. However, i am pleased that it has been resolved, you get a 2 star for resolving something that should never have happened

This is a scam company. Do not visit their website. They keep sending invoice and debt collection notice for just visiting their website. There is no transparency about the payment. Stay away from these scammers.

Good Morning Siezan

Thank you for your feedback.

The service is an initial 30 day free trial that does need cancelling if not required following the free period. This is made very clear on the order form, in the email confirmation and within the several follow up emails sent within the trial.

We also sent a number of emails throughout the trial informing you of features and reminding you that the trial was ending.

Our Customer Service Team have confirmed that your subscription has been cancelled and once we receive the outstanding balance the account will be closed in full.

Best regards,
