Barron’s Reviews

Someone added an extra newsletter to my subscription without asking for permission and charged me $32. After I found out, they got rid of the newsletter but refused to give me my money back even when I escalated to management. This kind of sneaky billing keeps happening according to other complaints I've read. For a subsidiary of a massive public corporation, this is shameful.

This is completely different from Barron's. This review doesn't match this publication at all and appears to be about a furniture company.

Not a legitimate news organization. They print sponsored content and their stance depends entirely on whether they're benefiting from promoting or destroying a company. This kind of biased reporting harms market integrity.

Heavy progressive lean for something supposedly objective. They reel you in with a cheap first year rate then triple or quadruple the price afterward. Some worthwhile articles, but their obvious political slant makes it tough to read. They position themselves as legitimate news, but that's nonsense. Take everything with a huge grain of salt.

Would give this publication a zero if possible. Barron's is hands down the worst financial publication out there. They've spent years trashing Tesla's stock, but smart investors ignored their takes like I did. About half their content appears to be written by AI, and it's clear they have no clue how the modern economy functions or what makes companies like Tesla different from anything we've seen before. Elon Musk's brilliance goes beyond anyone in recent history, and his ability to turn concepts into actual products is unmatched. The problem is their personal vendetta against Musk clouds their judgment, and this narrow perspective shows throughout their coverage of emerging industries. If you want solid financial guidance, steer clear of this outlet entirely.

I'd rate them zero if the system allowed it. I accidentally signed up online and requested a refund right away, we're talking minutes later. What happened next was a masterclass in terrible customer service. Eddie: Cold and mechanical, just spouted their policies like a robot. Cindy: Sounded like she was reading from an ancient script with absolutely no real concern or effort. Saul O., the supervisor in charge: The worst of the bunch. He refused to budge on a refund even though all the evidence pointed to an accidental charge reported immediately. They'll grab your payment method without hesitation but don't expect them to care about your problems. Completely unacceptable.

Worst approach to customer service I've encountered. Get it together, Barron's. You cannot reach anyone without holding for twenty minutes. After I cancelled, they claimed I'd still have access through my subscription end date. That lasted about a day. Their chat support is useless.

I paid for home delivery and haven't received a single copy in the past seven weeks. My patience completely ran out, so I terminated my subscription.

The print subscription has major delivery issues. I was constantly missing multiple copies each month, so I ended my subscription. When I requested a refund for the missing issues, customer service never followed through. Absolutely disappointing service and I won't be coming back.

This outlet only covers stories that wealthy market players are paying them to promote. Regular people shouldn't count on their reporting. Think carefully before trusting anything they publish.
