CAVery pleased with the Motley Fool… Very pleased with the Motley Fool services. I still use a personal broker too, but have used some of the advice I get from the MF newsletters. Their analysis is not too deep, but they provide enough to guide me to new stocks to consider. Their track record of results is solid, which is the most important measure for a stock advisory service.

CAIs there a rating less than 1 star???! Is there a rating less than 1 star? I took a membership on Stock Advisor for one year. I can't describe how disappointing it was. There's absolutely nothing useful there. The content is often outdated and simultaneous reviews by Motley writers contradict each other on a regular basis. Get ready to be heavily spammed for more of your money upon joining. There will be a barrage of messages and emails telling you about "once in a lifetime" opportunities....blah blah blah. Reviews follow the same tired scripted format over and over. You get a loose review followed by the usual blurb about Ian's "winning formula". Take my word for it and save your money for a membership with a "real" stock review site with in depth stock analysis.

CAYou get very little information with your original purchase… Their aggressive upsell tactics started the moment I subscribed as well. I thought I was buying into their complete program only to find out that it was the most basic with little to no info. Then came constant emails to spend more on the juicer information. I receive more emails in a day for upsells than I do for good information on stock picks. I agree that it's a disgustingly greedy and self defeating tactic.

CADon't Subscribe!! The subscription service is a scam in my opinion. There is no way to cancel the annual review from within your user account, I emailed twice asking to cancel my subscription. Both times i received an auto response saying they would respond to my request within 48 hours, but I never heard back. They then charged my card the auto review rate. It's incredibly frustrating that they don't have a self serve option to cancel a subscription and the ignore you when trying to contact support to cancel.

CASome good info but.... I have gained useful insight from this sight a number of times but decided that I would cancel my subscription as I was not using it much. I have tried to contact them a number of different ways (phone, email) and have received no response. They auto renewed my subscription. Not sure if to fight the charge on my credit card or just cancel the card as they seem determined to keep me subscribed.
