Worst distribution ever
so we paid to get our press release on a bunch of useless American sites that no one reads.
I was expecting yahoo finance or something else real and we got the worst distribution ever.
We'll never give you 1 cent from our pocket.
By the way, $270 wasted
edit: They contacted me and addressed the issue, delivering the PR to bigger websites, however, it is very disappointing that I had to publish a 1-star review to get the service I paid for, this is simply unfair and an extra step from the client side who is annoyed by the first distribution.

Hi Angelo, thank you for your review of our platform. We have since discussed your press release results and during our discussion were able to share with you distribution of your initial press release order to Yahoo Finance, The Street and Business Insider. I hope we were able to clarify your distribution pick up and please let us know if you have any further questions. Thank you.
Edit: Thank you for your updated review. To clarify, the links of Yahoo Finance, The Street, Business Insider, etc. provided to you were part of your initial order with Newswire. As a courtesy to you, we sent your release out to additional media points after your first release as well in addition to already obtaining pick up on those websites. Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions regarding the pick up points of your first release with us. Thank you!

Newswire did not add one bit of visibility to our press release. It didn't show up on any of our searches, and we follow a lot of different feeds about our industry and competitors. Not worth the money. Probably not worth any money, to be honest.

Hi Dick, thank you for your honest review of our platform. Since your review, we have been working on trying to improve the results of your press release which I believe we have. We also provided some clarification to our some our of products/services to you and would be happy to continue the conversation should you have any additional questions. Thank you.

Support Process Not Working
Although I originally gave NewsWire a 2-star rating, I am happily changing my rating to 4 stars, with the probability of changing it to a 5 star.
Why the change - within minutes of posting my review I was contacted by Patrick with a reasonable explanation as to why I had the issue I describe and an escalation process should I ever experience similar or any issues going forward.
All companies will occasionally have issues, so what separates the bad ones from the good ones is what they do to correct the issue. Patrick's efforts demonstrated to me that NewsWire is one of the good ones.
Below is an email exchange, please tell me if my experience was acceptable.

Thanks for the response.
When I submitted my question my review had already sat for two hours, however, in the end my PR sat for over six hours before I am was able to contact anyone. I called and I sent emails to the emergency contact address and no response.
This is not the first time this has happen, so that I can make a more informed decision about my chose for PR publishing, please let me know what I can count on for turnaround and what process is in place when the emergency process fails.
Thx,
Rod

Very happy!
I sent in my press release on a Monday at around 3pm and it was reviewed and published within about an hour and a half! Super fast. Many major networks picked it up and it was published in many places.
I'm very pleased!

I had an excellent experience the first …
I had an excellent experience the first time I used Newswire, but my last process did not go as smoothly. My release was submitted and 'under review' mid afternoon the day before I asked for it to be released, but was never released the next morning. They got it out 2 hours late. In their defense, I was contacted by the company in an effort to regain my trust in them and I thought they did an excellent job of recovering. It turns out that there was an unusual issue they were facing at that point that has since been rectified.
