TripAdvisor and similar are benign platforms. In simple terms, they are not publishers but enable anyone to publish their thoughts on their platform. Think of it like a placard. If someone wrote a defamatory message about you and stood outside your house with it, would you take issue with them or the company that provided the materials to make the placard?
Moneysavingexpert and similar are publishers. If they write a bad review then providing that review is objective and based on evidence, then there is no legal recourse available to the company being reviewed.
Where it gets legally tricky is if a review overstates the problem or the author is being subjective.
They can lose their section 5 defence though if they fail to deal with any complaints correctly.Moneysavingexpert and similar are publishers.
