Peter Poppoff at it again!!

[gaynor]

Further to my post in May in regards to the Peter Popoff ASA ruling which concluded that Poppoff was making unsubstantiated claims about his Miracle Spring water. I’d like to let you know that he’s at it again.

He is now being aired on Passion TV on Sky 169. In his advertisement he claims that his water has cured diabetes can cause financial gains and he implies that it can cure cancer.

I have placed a complaint with the ASA about the show, which was on on the 5th October which has been acknowledged.

His show is repeating. So if anyone wants to watch, and possibly place a complaint it will be on at 7pm tomorrow and Thursday.

[Mr. Jon Donnis]

do you have a link to the ASA please

Tonight’s presentation is different than last nights. I suspect that they are showing a few different versions. Tonight he claims that he can cure Sickle Cell Anaemia, Breast cancer and depression (I think he claimed depression last night and I missed noting it). I will watch tomorrow night and then extend my complaint.

Did anyone else watch?

I dunno about curing depression - prolonged exposure to Popoff could certainly CAUSE it...

True, but nothing that Jack Daniel's miracle whiskey won't cure.

The ASA have passed my complaint on to Ofcom. Will let you know what happens.
