What the score is built on

Every review on emeraldchat.co.uk follows the same rubric. Each criterion above gets its own sub-score from 1 to 10, and the weights shown determine the final score. A low sub-score is never hidden: every review names the weakest point of Emerald Chat as explicitly as the strongest.

Where the data comes from

We combine three sources: a curated fact dossier about Emerald Chat (ownership, licensing, history), an automated weekly check of the official site (prices, promotions, payment methods), and third-party signals such as Trustpilot scores. Fact tables and the price page show the date the data was last checked.

Editorial personas

Reviews are bylined by editorial personas: pen names used by our editorial team, not individual people. The fact check is carried out by our editorial team against the sources above, not by a named individual.

What we do not do

We do not accept payment for a higher score, we do not remove negative findings, and we never invent numbers: when a fact is not in our data, we leave it out. Spotted something wrong or outdated? Tell us via the contact form and we will correct it.
