Voy Weight Loss Review: Six Months on the UK Service

Last updated: 19 September 2026

By Stiv · Design, technology and personal finance

I have paid for Voy myself every month since March 2026, which is six months at the time of writing. This Voy weight loss review is based on that, and not on a press sample, a free trial or a briefing.

Health servicesVoy · Six months in

Six months paying for Voy, and what I would tell a friend.

So this Voy weight loss review covers the service and only the service: the sign-up, the app, whether a human answers, whether the box turns up, what happens to the bill, and the small print under the money-back promise. Voy prescribes prescription-only medicines, and UK advertising rules bar anyone naming those to the public, so I name none of them anywhere here. What is left is the half most write-ups skip, which is whether the subscription wrapped around the prescription is actually well run.

This is an opinion piece. Views expressed are the author’s own and do not constitute professional advice.

This is not medical advice. Voy’s own clinicians decide who is eligible, and nothing here claims any treatment is safe, suitable or effective for anyone. If you have questions about your health, take them to your GP.

Cool Factor: 4/5

Sprive Prize Draw Explained: How to Enter and What You Win

Sprive's "win £2,000 a week" headline is technically true and quietly misleading. The Sprive prize draw is a referral draw, not an overpayment one, and most entrants take home £5 a referral paid straight to their lender. Three draws are live right now, including £10,000 via Wayfair until 31 October. Here is the honest arithmetic on all three, plus the ones that closed.

How Much Does Grubby Cost? UK Pricing Breakdown 2026

Last updated: 29 September 2026

By Stiv · Design, technology and personal finance

The number one question people ask about Grubby is simple: how much does Grubby cost? The number two question, naturally, is whether it is actually worth it. So here is the full pricing breakdown, checked against Grubby's live prices on 29 September 2026. After that come the maths on my own weekly spend and the leftovers habit that roughly halves the cost of each dinner.

This article contains affiliate and referral links, which are paid links. If you click one and buy or sign up, I earn a commission or referral bonus at no extra cost to you. Brands don't choose what I feature or what I say about them.

I pay full price for my weekly Grubby box and have been cooking Grubby meals for over a year. CoolCuration has a referral partnership with Grubby.

Want money off your first Grubby box?

The sign-up offer changes with each campaign, so I keep the live figure and the steps to claim it on my Grubby discount page.
