I’ve been using ScoutPal since shortly after the company was founded and have always had good things to say about it. In fact, although I’ve never actually written a review about the service, I’ve recommended it in posts here on numerous occasions.

One thing I’ve always liked about ScoutPal has been it’s reliability. A few weeks ago that reliability began to deteriorate. For me, things came to a head this morning in a thrift store when it became necessary to log-in eleven times just to check five books.

When I got home I decided to do some checking and discovered there are a lot of users around the country who are having the same problem. The service that these other subscribers and I am getting at the current time is not acceptable considering what we are paying each month for the service.

If any readers are currently considering subscribing to ScoutPal’s service, I would recommend that they don’t subscribe at the present time. If the problems ScoutPal is currently having are corrected, ScoutPal may once again be a reliable service. Until that time though, I wouldn’t recommend that anyone start a new subscription.
