It is 100% impossible to cancel your subscription. I have been redirected to different phone numbers, no help through customer support, unable to remove my credit card. This is insane that in 2022 a company will rip you off like this for outrageous amounts of money and make it as difficult to cancel.

This proves that is a horrible product, because they do everything in your power to prevent you from quitting or changing your mind. Do not get sucked into this scam trap.

I have been charged $409 for a renewal when I haven't used the site in months. Shows up on my credit card. Go try and cancel! They put you on hold, transfer you around from one operator or another, its really obnoxious. As a practicing attorney my time is valuable. And I am loosing money being here. In the end, I found that my own research and selections out performed what was contained in the materials. Do not get drawn into this rabbit hole and scam.

I tried the trial found it average and stupidly forgot to cancel so after 14 days the full years subscription came out. Stupidly this occurred for a second year. Biggest issue is it is not easy to unsubscribe, you have to physically call them up to unsubscribe. Working as geologist in central Asia I found they are only open office hours so with the time difference and poor mobile coverage this process has become difficult. Emailing does not work they do not respond to please cancel, so now I have to set a 12am alarm get up in the middle of the morning and hopefully have mobile reception to cancel a subscription... clearly this is all about the money when they make it so hard to unsubscribe

I signed up for this service after receiving a promotional offer. Everything is an ad or an up sell. I called three times to cancel. I can't get a hold of anyone and forced to leave a message. I got one call back and when I said I wanted to cancel, they hung up on me. I emailed customer service and they said they can cancel anyone. How convenient for fraudster Jim. Who does business like this in this day and age? Only Jim Cramer. I called the next day and got right thru. They said no problem my card would not be charged. I thought that was a little too easy so I asked how I can confirm. They said not a problem, they would send an email confirmation. My card was charged anyway. Now it's my word vs. fraudster Jim. I have all the phone records. I also emailed my complaint to customer service confirming what has occurred. Now I am disputing the charge with my credit card company. Avoid the hassle. No one should do business like this.

I have been a subscriber for around 5 years. The quality and usefulness of the site has decreased dramatically over the past 6-12 months. The number of authors have decreased. The quality of authors have decreased (where is paul price?). As you scroll down the home page it's the same 3-4 articles repackaged under different section headers. They have obviously tried to cut back on costs and the quality of the product has suffered.

Upon visiting the above article page. I found it difficult to read the article. Pop-over spam was so bad that reading the article was near impossible. As if the on-page adverts were not already bad enuff. It is likely that I will block this site from future visits.

Totally agree on other comments. One finally has to block the credit card and get a new one... frustrating.
I have back tested their UPGRADES and DOWNGRADES of individual stocks from January 4th YTD (June 27) on https://www.thestreet.com/author/*******/thestreet-quant-ratings/all.html?page=11.
Interestingly, more than half (!) of their Quant Ratings and recommendations would have made me lose 40 to 50% of the invested capital. Sometimes upgrades occur on peak (!) stock value... losing money right away, and downgrades occur on bottoms... making you miss the rally.
This looks like some serious and precise insider job here... for the biggies. TheStreet Quant Ratings and TheStreet recommendations both on CNBC and online result often a significant loss. My own research is traditional and keeps me in a comfortable profit zone.

TheStreet.com ActionAlertsPlus offers a free 14 day trial for new members. However, deep within their website, you find that to cancel the trial, you have to call and wait to speak to someone. This is inconvenient enough, however, it is actually getting the trial cancelled that is the real issue. I called and spoke to three separate people, each who confirmed that my free trial was cancelled and that my card would not be charged. I asked them to send me a confirmation email, which they agreed they would, but then never sent one. I logged into my account and at least confirmed that it was set to "Not to renew" with a charge of $0.00 - I even took a screenshot and sent a time-stamped email to myself confirming this. However, three weeks later, my credit charged is charged $59.95, the monthly subscription fee. I logged back into my account, and someone had changed from "Not to Renew" to "Premium". This seems like outright fraud and a scam to me.

I signed up for a free trial. Never again! I got blasted with dozens of hyped-up emails. When I finally found the privacy settings, I discovered that they are automatically checked to allow email, phone calls and regular mail for about 10 different services. Plus they sell/share your name and info with advertisers. I have no idea whether their advice is any good--rather doubt it actually--what they are is an advertising/spam tool on steroids.

I used the service for a few years and found it informative. I never experienced any problems with the billing and once I decided to cancel the service, there was no problem. They were sorry to see me go, but none of the horror stories I read from others. Simply not a problem. I experienced anywhere from 14-23% returns for the few years using the service, while only 11% the year I went it alone. I have recently compared some of the other providers rates and am entertaining renewing my subscription at this time with "the street"

"I have taken the liberty of adding some red arrows to make our DSE's objective forecast crystal clear." from the Article

Article august 2017, same author:

Their DSE tool saw the rise coming, and now its time to sell.

Soo i may ask if someone can explain me two things:

1) How can the DSE predict 200$, but has seen the rise coming
2) the author was not invested in january, but is invested in august. Why? It was "crystal clear" that it will fall hard.

Lets be polite and say i cannot recommend their service or predictions in any way.

I am an Investment Advisor, I decided to subscribe to the Dividend Investor subscription. Web site is very disappointing. The real estate on the site is more devoted to making additional purchases than information relating to the subscription. The videos that start playing are very annoying. I think Cramer has some intellect but I cannot stand watching him on TV or on this site. He is addicted to himself and it shows. Just like Trump! Lol

I signed up for $49.95 per year. The information provided wasn't worth much, so I quit opening the emails. They said one of those emails was my chance to opt-out and since I called (when I saw the $199.95 charge) a week or two after "the deadline". Apparently, I inadvertently checked a renewal box. I disputed this to AMEX, who after "investigation", said they sided with the merchant. Jim Cramer claims to be so right-minded on TV, but he is complicitous in this scam.

I had a 1 year subscription to Action Alerts Plus, it's a service of TheStreet.com. On-line they do not allow you to select "Do Not Renew". So they automatically renewed me for 1 year. I called on the first day of the renewal to say that I did not want to renew as was told I could not cancel. I was forced to prepay for an annual service on day 1, and could not cancel. I would stay as far away from any of their subscription services if I was you!
