Our recent press release on University spelling mistakes has caused a bit of a stir. Along with being featured on several news websites, we were quite surprised to hear via twitter that the story had found it’s way onto Sky News in the UK. After a considerable bit of searching, our marketing expert Kerry managed to track down the clip, which we’ve embedded below. Neat!

spellr.us site spelling mistake
A spellr.us customer yesterday politely let us know that we had a typo on our site.
“refiled” was incorrect and should have been “refilled”. See screenshot of error above.
Whilst we realise as a “spell check company” of sorts that we are a bigger target than most for people pointing out spelling errors - we are always happy to name and shame ourselves.
Again this highlights how easy it is for typos to slip through and sit there for years.
