The Buzzfeed representative refused to refund our subscription fee although we never subscribed. She insisted that their legal team would handle any communication with our credit card company. A money grab scam!

I am not a regular consumer of BuzzFeed news, but they seem to have some talented reporters that can dig up some absolutely fascinating stories that are frequently repeated and confirmed by major news outlets.

Hi, I am HTML5 games developer. I develop platform, dress up, hidden objects, point and click games and more. Couple days ago I just sign up with this web Buzzfeed and try it to post my last game developed. They just cancel my account, very bad service.
I do not recommend this website to publish any news or to post something there.
I think they accept only theirs stories. So why not they let people sign up if they cancel accounts?

Pathetic
January 1, 2021

So full of $#*! it's not funny. Full of lies and deceptions. They attempt to steer people from the truth. Definitely another fake news outfit. We have so many of them now. I encourage all Americans to search for truth. It is rare to find it in these days.

Absolute Dogwater
April 11, 2021

If I had 1 cent for every time Buzzfeed posted some worthless $#*! that sounds like it was written by a 2 year old with downs I'd be a very rich man. Seriously Buzzfeed, hire somebody that isn't from southern Cali for once. They all write like somebody whom was raised by wolves in the Alaskan wilderness. Also, I'm pretty sure that Buzzfeed is funded by the Nazi regime of Germany. Don't let them fool you, they are still active and very much involved with Buzzfeed's CEO sexually. To summarize, the existence of this website is a hate crime against humanity within itself. If you have ever contributed to Buzzfeed, I pray you and your mother die of terminal $#*! cancer. Reading Buzzfeed articles with a serious intent automatically makes you a pedophile. That's it. Bye

It's in my news feed. There may be an interesting title, then I open article and there's nothing. Why have a site if there's nothing in the article you've had a title to? Your ratings would go up if you fix this.

I chose not to give BuzzFeed a bad review because my issue is with one article. It states how boomers are the cause of all of our country's problems. I find that the author is one who needs to return to his civics classes. Almost all of the problems he mentions spring from the conservative base of politics. The recessions in 2008? Conservatives. Trickle down economics? Conservatives/Reagan. Low wages? Conservative states. Rise in housing prices? Bankers overextending loans (Many bankers were not boomers.) Racism? Bigots of all ages. Social security? Not allocating the funds…Conservative Congress. Education funding? Conservatives. Environment? Conservatives. Jeremy, do not pit millennials against boomers. Your information is based on untruths!

Stupid ads
July 23, 2023

Tryna do quizzes and the ads take up 3/4 of the screen with no option to get rid of them so you can read all of one word at a time and see about two centimetres of every photo option on the quizzes so you have to scroll every second in order to read them. Quizzes r lowkey mid anyways the options are way too obvious 'which scooby doo character are you?
Q1) whats ur fav pastime
A) having red hair
B) wearing ascots
C) barking
D) hanging out with your talking dog
E) wearing lots of orange'
Like be so for real buzzfeed i would be chill if u sorted ur ads out... cant even use the website ur begging for views on.

Fried my account for no reason. Can't do anything with my account, no even comment (because the comment vanishes)! Oh, and I can't delete it on desktop because it won't let me acess my account due to two-factor authencation failure/delay on their side.

If every single employee of buzzfeed would hang themselves, the world would be a *******% better off.

Disgusting garbage website, profiting only, on the pain and suffering from others.
Clickbait central.

It's beyond me why not more people try to DDOS this $#*!ing disgusting company.

To all the $#*!s here that claim buzzfeed is a good website, get your head out of your $#*! you pathetic twat.

1 star, is even too much for this $#*! company.

Why promote such savagery, greed and disgrace? FAKE NEWS - Desperate reporters... harm innocent people with no proof. Gets in the way of humanitarian causes and people who stand for them. Never anything good with #buzzfeed

Of all places to go and read the news, you choose BuzzFeed!? Their 'journalism' is total garbage. Blatantly biased, no form of critical thinking is permitted. All news articles have been twisted to stir emotions and attract attention just like clickbait! At least their quizzes are fun. I can't stop taking them!

Free speech should always be protected, but Buzzfeed gives enemies of free speech great material to work with. False information pushed by agenda-driven sources hurts everyone involved and not involved in society. Buzzfeed- clean up your $#*! or shutdown.

To be honest, I would politically identify as a Democrat/liberal/whatever you want to call me. A lot of these one star reviews for Buzzfeed come from the right, but I would like to represent my half of America when I say we hate them too. Don't have the mistaken belief that hating Buzzfeed is something only one party can do; it is as bipartisan as it gets. My reasons are the same as anyone else's on this site.

Buzz Feed is much worse than I thought. I was looking at an article regarding the New Mexican President. With absolutely no specifics, BF decided it was impossible for our Presidents could work together. Though
The article was supposed to be about the new President, BF kept slinging mud at our President backed up by nothing but the writer's imagination like when it was said that Trump is not getting rid of the swamp, he brought it with him. It goes downhill from there. Journalists are not supposed to make news by writing lies, they are supposed to write the truth. Buzz Feed has lost any sort of moral compass.

Another scam company
September 12, 2017

It is impossible to contact buzzfeed. All the information they have regarding my company, including the name, is incorrect, yet my efforts to correct it go unanswered. I will try again, by letter to their New York address, but I believe they are nothing but a crooked scam... A company (and I use that word loosely) like theirs need to make themselves available to their customers. Instead, they continue to post incorrect and false information about their clients. To say they are horrible is an understatement.

A blatant content farm that mostly consists of terrible lists like "42 Ways you Know you went to UC Irvine" designed solely to generate clicks for advertisers.

There is absolutely no original content on this site. It mostly consists of pictures taken from Tumblr which are taken from YouTube videos.

It's sad that so many people like this site.

Not an honest or accurate source of information. They have in the past and are currently misrepresenting the information. These people should be investigated for falsifying information and false truths. Possible legal suite would be appropriate to stop these websites that have so far escaped having to prove what they report.

Biased Content
April 10, 2018

Huge lack of actual journalism. They just push a certain agenda and don't give people the facts in order to draw their own conclusions. They are biased and racist, it truly shows in the content that they provide. It is unfortunate that people use this website for information.
