Just wasted an hour attempting to leave reviews for CL's that we have recently stayed at. Also problems in general accessing most things on CC website with iPad
it appears that iPads are not CC compatible. Shame, as when we are away we are more likely to have the iPad rather than a laptop.
Come on CC - it's not rocket science and iPads have been around for a while, when will you get your act together?

It would be interesting to know if others have this problem with reviews. I have not left one for a CL but the procedure seems the same as for main sites. and I have no problem there. I have been using an iPad for over 3 years on the club site and can't say I have come across any degree of incompatibility, except on CT. Where it is not possible to upload pictures and emoticons can crash the thread. There are also issues in the apps but I think these are common to other devices as well.
edit, just a thought, perhaps the OP was timed out. This has happened to me and is very annoying. Always do reviews in an editor these days, and cut and paste.

Write your comments here...I have just found out why my iPad-written reviews have always failed. Being retired i always leave the "good for families " rating empty. When I hit "submit", I get "please wait " followed by "submit" again. What I can't see is the little red error message insisting that I rate suitability for families. Time and time again I have abandoned my attempt to leave a review. Today I noticed the message, gave a meaningless rating and successfully left a review for the first time ever! Maybe that is Shirley's problem too.

It really about time our web team came to terms with iPads. They are our team. We, the members, are the club. Maybe we should call an EGM to authorise our elected council to purchase an iPad for the IT team so they can test our systems on iPads as well as Windows PCs.

I agree that the star rating on individual items is flawed, as each is so subjective. In the case of good for families, are you rating the site or the area of the site? On a recent review for Balitic Wharf I would have given site good for families 1, as no play area and a very restricted site, but area of site good for families 5. I personally think they should do away with them, except for perhaps an overall rating.
However, in the CC's defence, it does very clearly state that they are required fields. Unfortunately error messages being off the bottom of the screen is not unusual on many sites and not specific to the iPad.
