It should read "Martin Lewis's MoneySavingExpert.com"
Nobody else seems to be annoyed by this but I am, how can they make such a blatant mistake on a professional website.
Anyone else?

I was always taught that you could acceptably do it either way."One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
Because by then you've blown your chances. That's it."0 -

The key being whether you would say Martin Lewisuz MSE or Martin Lewis MSE. Martin Lewisuz is how I say it, and is correct grammar.
As for my punctuation.. I was never taught how to use commas properly so I just made it up, but I am not writing for a top money saving website, which is my point. Unless you're not referring to the commas in which case I would like you to point out the mistake(s you don't seem to know whether I have made a mistake or mistakes).0 -

The fact of the matter is that you are grammatically incorrect in the criticism that you offer in your opening post.
The use of the apostrophe at the top of this page is perfectly acceptable.
And as you seem to be wondering:
(btw there are two mistakes in the highlighted part of your post - an incorrect use of a comma when a full stop should have been used and a lack of a question mark, which is unforgiveable.
) "One day I realised that when you are lying in your grave, it's no good saying, "I was too shy, too frightened."
