MarketWatch Avis 101

Absolute fraudsters !!!
I was contacted by this company, to be offered a new energy package, only to be told that actually it couldn’t go through,
Then I was promptly contacted by solicitors demanding they recoup the money THEY would have received????
Shocking!!!!!
I feel properly scammed by the very best.

Be cautious when subscribing. I selected a 1 year special rate of approx $4 a month for Marketwatch and Barrons, to renew at $22. Right off the bat was charged $22 for the first month with indication that I will be charged $22 each month.

I use the free features. Would never pay. Marketwatch is openly biased left and anti-Trump. All you have to do is read the articles and post on their public comments section to see it. I use it for their free market features. Would never join or pay for this biased site.

I went to the MW website and created a watchlist and recieved stock price data, I then tried to read an article and found after a few lines of enticing info the pay wall came up in Every instance. I removed my account and am searching for a rustworthy free financials site.

Price jumped from $4 to $24, didn't realize and forgot. They refused to refund a few months despite not actively using the account. Yes I know it's in the T&C's but only bad companies operate this way. I will never give them another dollar.

I'm giving 3 stars because I like to use the Watchlist functionality. No complaints there. I am tired of seeing anti-Trump articles being prioritized in Marketwatch's feed. What really bothers me is they are rated 'center-right' which is far from the truth. Just go to their main page every day for a few weeks and see which 'opinions' make the top of their list.

Stay Away – 6 Years and Over $4,000 Down the Drain

I was a loyal customer of First American Home Warranty for 6 years, paying about $65/month—more than $4,000 total—expecting peace of mind and coverage for major home systems. What I got instead was a complete nightmare.

They renewed my contract every year without giving me updated or clear information about what was covered. When my AC unit broke down, they offered me a ridiculous $95 cash-out option. The contractor they sent was unprofessional and did nothing other than say, “We’ll contact the home warranty.” Then I was told I’d need to pay $700 out of pocket to fix it.

Their customer service was dismissive and unhelpful. They claim to cover and replace, but the reality is you have to fight for every dollar and still end up paying out of pocket. It feels like their whole business model is built on draining people of money while delivering the bare minimum in return.

As an American citizen, I will continue to share this experience to warn others. I’m also filing a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. If I had saved the $65/month instead of paying it to them, I could have bought a new AC unit outright.

DO NOT trust this company. Do your homework and spend your money elsewhere.

Right-leaning WSJ owns and decides what misinformation/disinformation is put out to the public. Info favors the racist MAGA's and brainwashing the ordinary Republicans.

Truly looking forward to finding another company other than MarketWatch for my daily stock updates. I’m done with their left-wing-liberal, negative and pessimistic commentary! Done!

What a joke of an outlet! Definitely spreading MIS INFORMATION!
And the reviews speak volumes!

First, I subscribed to the WSJ not MarketWatch. I cancelled the WSJ and MarketWatch keeps billing me.
Then I cancelled MarketWatch and they kept billing me. I cannot delete my credit card information from the website. Very deceitful. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE unless you wish to keep your subscription until you die

The help center is not working. No connection with them.

I was a subscriber in Marketwatch for one year.
In October 2024 they said that AMD stock price will increase a lot.
A FEW HOURS AGO AMD CRASHED -10%.

IF YOU WANT TO GET PAID BY COMPANIES TO PROMOTE THEIR STOCKS, then you WON'T HAVE OUR MONEY!

UNSUBSCRIBED!

I've been going on marketwatch.com website since the very beginning in the 90s. They used to be a legitimate website. Now every one of their stories are left leaning political nonsense, and many are without Truth at all. There they are now a sounding board for the Democratic party just like all of the others. It is a shame.

Quick review based on company’s practice of obstructing access to those who utilize VPN for security and protection from trackers, identity thieves, and traders of personal data. Why block potential customers/clients who use a VPN? Is it because they have no interest in those whose identity/personal data is not available for theft/sale?

DO NOT subscribe here!! They are fast to take your money, BUT id you want to unsubscribe or cancel your subscription, IT IS A NIGHTMARE!
Never again!

Looks like petrodollar is a conspiracy theory now. Give it a break.

Promoting scam sites

After researching car warranties I found your article and it's just more lies about a scam company.

The website is a scam because, instead of giving you a quote you asked for, it asks you for your data then shows you "partner" websites where you have to repeatedly fill out all the info all over again, it doesn't show any quotes and only refers you to other websites, if this isn't a scam then I don't know what it!
The worst part is that it shares your e-mail and your number with all other websites, partners, etc. And, even after you u subscribe, you will still get an avalanche of spam, both digital and physical, plugging your regular and digital mailboxes with offers unrelated to car insurance.
It was a mistake for me to use their service but I would like to warn other potential victims: they are NOT GOING TO GIVE YOU A QUOTE! All they're doing is data-mining and also referring you to real insurance providers for possible commission, in case someone actually perseveres, fills out all the forms again and actually gets the insurance they're asking for. They offer absolutely no service of any kind except for unwanted spam of all possible types. Do not give them your info, they're almost impossible to eradicate once they got ahold of your information.

Paid for a subscription to MarketWatch as part of a package with Wall Street Journal and Barron's. Subscribed to weekly news emails for all three.

Unsubscribed after quickly realizing that Barron’s and MarketWatch emails are useless to me. Barron’s stopped sending emails right away, MarketWatch didn’t.

I unsubscribed from MarketWatch five more times over the course of six months, and every time it said “you will be unsubscribed within several business days” but their emails still keep coming to this day.

Had to set up a filter so now those emails go straight to the spam folder and I don’t see them anymore. I will not be giving MarketWatch any more money.
