Pill changed to Rigevidon?

I have been on the pill (Microgynon 30) for nearly 3 years and today I went for a pill review, and they have changed my pill to Rigevidon I have had no problems being on my previous pill so I don't understand why it's been changed. I have heard loads of things about Rigevidon being the worst pill to be on as it causes lots of side effects. I'm just wanting to know if anyone has had any problems using this pill? As I'm not too sure I want to take it since hearing bad reviews about taking it?

Thank you :)

Rigevidon was the only pill I didn’t bleed on! But when I had the one week break it was very heavy and painful . Does make you feel slightly meh but nothing to major x
