The Motley Fool Canada Opiniões 179

I agree with most of the reviews here on the major upsell harassment. Furthermore, I initially paid $79 for my one year subscription. Renewal was at $249, and they were offering me $50 off as a "loyal" customer. Sorry, but for the info they provide, it just wasn't worth it, so I cancelled. Once I was no longer a member, I kept getting lower and lower offers to rejoin until I finally got my original subscription of $79/year. So why scam "loyal" members by price gouging if you're willing to let the subscription go for $79/year?

Deceptive marketing and website is of generally poor quality. Reports are of poor quality and lack depth. No refunds. Better options out there. Don't waste your money.

Re: Buy 1,970 Shares of This Top Dividend Stock for $252.44/Month in Passive Income (The Motley Fool)

This monthly dividend stock not only provides you with a high yield, but a monthly one!

This article is grossly exaggerating and misleading investors in the articles headlines. As an owner of this stock, 2000 shares will generate $136/ month in Passive income.
Based upon the current annual dividend of .73 per share, paid monthly = .068 cents per share per month. I would like to know how the author arrives at $252.44 per month on only 1,970 shares?

Reason for leaving,
Aside from the fact Motley Fool Dividend Investor Canada and Premium Hub offer little for advice beyond what can be found online for free and in the newspapers, also Motley Fool makes canceling service very difficult.

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.

Stories written about investing in dividend stocks for retirement both for AQN and NWH-un.to were repetitive and stopped after a collapse. Just how good is the information really… None of the articles are news and the opinions are not good either. Based on reading the articles on yahoo finance gives me no confidence in any opinions that may come from this source. And yea if you get a few right thats not a good average or excuse the massive failure on all the other stories.

**Review:**
I had high hopes for Motley Fool Canada as a dedicated member with a $13,000 subscription. However, my experience has been incredibly disappointing. Their constant barrage of emails, promising profits and sound advice, was overwhelming – almost 1,000 emails per week. I followed their recommendations diligently, only to lose over $100,000 in the stock market due to their misleading guidance. Strangely, my honest review detailing these losses and providing concrete evidence was mysteriously deleted, raising concerns about their transparency. This situation eerily resembles the FTC's actions against Warrior Trading, shedding light on their potentially unethical practices. Their customer service, which was responsive before they got my money, has now been silent for months. I'm not only seeking a $13,000 refund, but I'm also considering joining forces with other victims for a class action lawsuit against Motley Fool Canada. Let this review serve as a warning to others – conduct thorough research before trusting their promises.

**Complaint:**
My experience with Motley Fool Canada after subscribing for $13,000 has left me deeply dissatisfied. The constant deluge of nearly 1,000 weekly emails promising profitable insights was overwhelming and misleading. Despite following their advice diligently, I suffered substantial losses of over $100,000 in the stock market. What's more alarming is that after I posted a review sharing these facts and providing evidence, they simply deleted it, casting doubt on their integrity. This situation appears strikingly similar to the FTC's actions against Warrior Trading, hinting at a potential pattern of deceptive behavior. Their customer service, previously responsive, has gone silent for months since they received my payment. I'm not only seeking a full refund but also considering uniting with fellow victims to initiate a class action lawsuit against Motley Fool Canada. This complaint aims to shed light on their questionable practices and prevent others from facing the same ordeal.

*Title: Motley Fool's Exploitative Game: A $13,000 Nightmare of Manipulation*

Prepare to be appalled by the underhanded tactics of Motley Fool, a subscription service that didn't just empty my pockets of $13,000, but also plunged me into a bottomless pit of losses exceeding $100,000 due to their horrendous stock advice. The architects of this financial tragedy are none other than Tom and David, the alleged financial wizards who supposedly rake in millions each month. Yet, they seem content to destroy lives while profiting from our downfall.

Imagine this scenario: I was duped into parting with an astonishing $13,000 for Motley Fool's so-called financial wisdom, only to be bombarded with investment advice that could best be described as a recipe for financial disaster. The woeful stock recommendations they handed out led to catastrophic losses that obliterated my portfolio and left me questioning their sinister motives.

Tom and David, swimming in their fortunes, appeared to derive perverse satisfaction from witnessing my losses skyrocket past $100,000, all thanks to their reckless counsel. It's nothing short of mind-boggling that individuals with such staggering wealth would stoop so low, leaving me and countless others to grapple with the wreckage of our financial futures.

If Tom and David are truly enjoying the riches they're reputed to have, one can't help but ponder why they're unwilling to extend a lifeline by refunding my $13,000. Is it that they stand to gain so much from the suffering of people like me, crushed under the weight of their fraudulent advice?

Let my cautionary tale be a glaring warning to anyone even remotely considering Motley Fool's offerings. Your financial well-being hangs in the balance, and this company's deceitful tactics could leave you in ruins. To those who've experienced the same nightmare, I'm leaving my email address below. Let's join forces, united by our grievances, to file a potent complaint with the FTC as a collective voice against this exploitation. Together, we can hold Motley Fool accountable for their predatory practices and protect others from suffering a similar fate.

I signed up for this and paid them for a year. The emails I get with the info I want says I need to upgrade to see it. Seems like all they are trying to do is get more money from me without giving any real stock advice. I can’t wait until the year is up. I get more and better information from free sites.

Their agressive upsell tactics started the moment I subscribed to stock advisor. You buy it,and then they make you feel you didn't get much, and that you need to go onpaying. It's a disgustingly greedy and self defeating tactic. I'm canceling my subscription.

why would you recommend to anyone to invest in Canada cannabis stocks after 3 million Canadians have lost a combined 150 billion

If there’s “0” it would better represent this company! Whatever you read in any newspaper that what they sell to you! But, every single day they will send you reminders to “pay more for the real stuff “?!
Simply scam!!! At the end you have to fight to unsubscribe!
Shame…

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.

I have not subscribed so I cannot provide feedback on that service but I do see the MANY articles that show up on sites like Yahoo Finance.

Question for Motley Fool ...how am I suppose be confident in any of your articles when you take every position possible? Then when the 1 out of the 20 positions you've taken is correct you say "look, we were right". At this point I just want you to go away so you stop clogging up the space for reviews I would like to actually read. If there was a way I could filter your reviews from my financial site feeds I would gladly do it.

I had previously used Motley Fool's services while living in the USA and was pleased with the information contained on their website. After moving back to Canada, I thought the service would be the same or similar, but I was wrong.

Motley Fool Canada has a much more limited information and tools at the user's disposal, but they still charge the same (if not more) for their service in Canada. Additionally, you get spammed on a daily basis with offers to upgrade your service (which I did on signup), and you'll spend more time navigating the spam than you will getting any relevant info about stocks and investing.

I consider my subscriptions to their so-called Epic Bundle to be a complete waste and regret spending my money with the Motley Fool Canada.

The last stock recommendation I got was to buy Apple. Seriously? This is their in-depth research. Apple? I also got a SELL recommendation for TTD and then shortly after TTD was a BUY recommendation. What's next? Will they tell me to buy low and sell high?

Save your money. Stay far away from this clown show.

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.

i have tried them a couple times and each time - they don't give any real advice(even after i paid for that) and want more money to reveal what you signed up for. i don't recommend them at all

I have used the Motley Fool, Hidden Gems, Stock advisor and Dividend Investor for years, and was very happy with them until the last couple of years.
Now picking good stocks is much more difficult I réalise, but I have been very disappointed with their advice, and with their lack of advice on previous reps that are tanking, or those that rose and should have been sold. I have lost all their previous gains In the last 2 years.
And I think they are pushing too many specialized portfolios. The original Stock Advisor was very good. I think they should drop many of the specialized services and just go back to giving the ordinary investor better advice. I am about to drop their services after maybe 10 years.

I have used the Motley Fool services for 6 years & it has been very profitable. For me the independent research is valuable and I can then determine if the stock recommendation is a good fit for me. The forums are a good resource as well. Of course there are going to be some stocks that are less profitable. Overall, it’s an investing philosophy I believe in.

these guys are fools stay away, the way they make money are from there fees that make you nothing. The glowing reviews are posted by themselves.
