Newswire.comReviews of newswire.com

It's been about a year. I can't reach them. I published an article a year ago, and it was canceled an hour later. then I requested a refund. However, they haven't responded to my emails for a year. They stole $1,500 of my money.

Avoid this site, they will just steal your money and avoid any contact back. The best thing to do is to raise a visa dispute with this company. After reviewing other reviews, clearly, they do this all the time and think they can make up reasons not to publish your piece and steal your money.

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE - I signed up, created a press release, paid for it, then Newswire rejected it but kept my money. I been trying to get my money back for months without any luck...

THEY SUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jake in customer service needs training in "customer service". wouldn't recommend or use again.

While browsing the site I discovered that they seem to fail in their due diligence to make any effort to verify the claims made by some of the organisations they allow to display "news" items. In particular an article about the WTC Group limited, which was so obviously FAKE NEWS it was almost laughable. The article contained false information from an organisation that does not exist, this gives an air of credibility to a dubious organisation.

I went with Newswire for a press release and the experience has been horrible from beginning to end. Our publication was rejected for "not being suitable for publication" so we cleaned it up and removed all the elements that went against their very strict guidelines, and it still got rejected. I reached out for multiple days calling, emailing, and contacting support via website to get a refund, and finally someone got back to me. HOWEVER, they said that they are unable to issue a refund. This makes zero sense to me as I paid for a service, they did not publish it, and now refuse to give me my money back. I expressed my situation and how ridiculous it is to not offer a refund, but they are double downing that no refund will be offered cause someone took 3 minutes to review my 300 word publication. Extremely shady business practice and I would never recommend anyone use this service. Potentially a scam.

I had a frustrating experience with this company, and I feel compelled to share my concerns. Recently, I was hit with an unauthorized charge for thousands of dollars for a renewal I did not intend to make. Their support number leads to a dead line, and the support page is inactive, making it nearly impossible to get help. What’s more concerning is the lack of timely responses to my inquiries. It feels like a shady practice to charge customers without prior consent, especially when they don't allow you to remove the credit card you have on file. This experience has left me feeling uneasy about their business practices, and I would not recommend them based on my experience.

I was pitched by Newswire sales manager after forking up $1200 for a single release that was to have premium entertainment journalists exposure. Nope. It went to farming community news and other non significant distribution I discovered. But not before I forked out another $24,000 for special distribution of my specific release needs only to discover after paying it was eliminated and something else written that didn’t relate to what I provided and verified they would do! False promises and bait and switch. After a single month of 4 unsatisfactory rewrites to no avail I knew it was a lost cause. after terminating and asking for refund they refuse to pay prorated payment of unused services. I have to fight now to get my money balance refunded! Users BEWARE
