Staying away from this website. Clicked on one of their articles and got a virus message (the one where there really isn't one but wants you to pay to be able to get rid of the virus that is not there). I have learned how to get out of it. Newsmax needs to be more careful what articles they post on their site.
Dishonesty problem at NEWSMAX. Don't buy NEWSMAX public shares, they have a dishonesty problem. They train their customer service to lie to customers with issues and say their technical staff is fixing them. But they have had the same problem for 10 months and they haven't solved it. Their solution is to teach employees to lie. I think a company that does such a simple thing is not honest about serious issues. I would not trust NEWSMAX leaders until they change this culture. It could lead to a big problem. Some people at NEWSMAX are good, but some are bad.

There are TWO very annoying things about Newsmax which could easily be fixed. 1) Stop the late afternoon and evening opinion show hosts from REPEATEDLY showing clips taken of The View, or MSNBC host shows, or CNN host shows. If we wanted to see that CRAP, we'd watch those programs/stations! It's almost like, c'mon, let's hate them real good. ENOUGH! 2) GET RID OF GRETA VAN SUSTEREN. Not only is her voice annoying, but she's more far left than conservative, PLUS she is constantly interrupting her guests which is just downright rude. And those stupid purported "comical clips" shown at the end of the show are idiotic!
Why do you keep Jason on the right squad he is blood boiling it’s not a good choice if I want to listen to the left I’llwatch msnbc.
I like having a concretive news station to watch since the downfall of Fox to the dark side but, every since they started charging for their Newsmax+, they seem to have slid downhill in quality and several times on the weekend, they can't even follow their own schedule and use filler shows. They also record their segments then replay them instead of having continues programming, guess they must have a great break room and take full advantage of it. They keep touting their signups for the +service but its only reached 200K since they starting charging in November, not very impressive. And, they have the worst customer service I have ever encountered, they never reply to any of their messages to them.
I like Newsmax but I have a few issues Wake up America does not start early enough for EST time zone. Weekends are horrible they want you to watch shows that have nothing to do with news, I pay to watch Newsmax should be 7 days of News not 5 days.
I like all the commentators and the content. What is super annoying is I bought the app and you can’t do anything special with it e.g. if you view previously recorded videos, you can’t fast-forward it you can’t do anything. Way too many commercials it totally distracts from the content.
Carl Higby is great. Never any issues with the app. In fact has been great.
I love Rob Schmitt. He has great show every single night. He has personality to go with it and a snarky expression that often captures the craziness of the left. But Bolling and Greta are establishment neocons. Last night Bolling had John Bolton on and did not push back on what he was saying. Greta often has warmongers on as well. They seem tone deaf that conservatives are sick of paying for a war on other side of world for a country that is NOT a democracy and just as corrupt (maybe more) than Russia. I’m sticking with Rob. I watched Salcedo first time yesterday and liked him. I am going to try Carl Higbie. But I’m done with Greta and Bolling. Wish newsmax would have principles and fire them. Bring back Stinchfield and Spicer.
Newsmax TV is great when it works. I changed from FOX to NEWSMAX when they fired Tucker. The problem is service. I am on day seven with no audio on Newsmax and day six of no response from Newsmax despite texting their contact line numerous times. It also doesn't go without notice that they don't respond to TRUST PILOT reviews.
Newsmax use to say "don't tell me what to think" but now it seems that they are not pure. Has Newsmax been corrupted? How about you just report the news! Your app is crap but your comments are worse! Disclaimers and your opinions are starting to suck. About the tampon machine in the bathroom and you say "Newsmax doesn't condone violence" What a stupid thing to say. You sound like a liberal. Just now, you say that "we at Newsmax, believe that the election was fair" blah blah blah. Better get it together friends because you "were" the best thing that conservatives had going. We are about to ditch you if you can't correct...
Generally the network is appreciated. Greg Kelly and Chris Salcedo are positive standouts as true American patriots. There are others who are noteworthy as well. Bianca de la Garza is a breath of fresh air displaying complete composure under any and all circumstances. She’s the complete package - beauty and brains. Newsmax is lucky to have her. My concern is that hints characteristic of mainstream news organizations seem to be slowly surfacing at Newsmax. I hope this is not a trend toward the beginnings of Newsmax morphing into another mainstream network ala Fox.
I subscribed to the paid service because I have always liked Newsmax. It seems, however, that the minute I subscribed service was horrible. I have to sign in at least once a day because of freezes, video cuts out, audio cuts out and sentences are often overlapped or repeated due to technical glitches. Furthermore, I'm fed up with hearing how Newsmax has has a "brand new" story (that being a paid streaming service started 4 months ago) and hearing "we can't stop talking about it"---well you'd better. It's getting VERY old. Finally, I was still willing to hang in despite issues mentioned. However, after hearing several commentators state emphatically that Newsmax believes that the 2020 election was fair and legitimate I am done! It's not that I disagree with Newsmax on this (which I do) but rather it shows that they are just one more network of non-journalists who find it impossible to be neutral (or at least present both sides.) Shame on Newsmax! So very disappointing!
I recently called Chris Salcedo show. I was hung up on twice. I did not even get to speak my point. I was not rude, nor did I do anything to have this happen. I find him rude and controlling. I will not ever listen to him again and will spread the word as how he may treat his listeners.
The app is extremely aggravating. You have to clear the data resign back in every single time you go out of it. It is a lot of trouble. I have called them they gave me one month free for my trouble but it's still not fixed. So sad because I trust their news more than any other but their customer service is pathetic.
