It was excellent until they went public. Now they are advertising every few minutes in order to reach more customers HOWEVER, as a paying customer I am very unhappy with this service. Add news ‘on a continuous loop’ and I am beyond unhappy l will not renew
I am sick of the never Trumps who have shows on Newsmax. I can't stand the liars like Andrew Napolitano. He should not have a show. He is really bad. He called our President a king. He is a dishonest liar. He says what if??? Well these political appointed judges should be arrested these crooked judges that think they are above everyone. Half of these are the sucky Foxx people never Trumpers.
Quality of service unreliable. Poor streaming shows they stoped in the middle of and morning news comes on instead. Show completely not shown and morning news put on. My star rating was great now a two or three. Need to upgrade your service that people paid for.
Anyone can write a CrowdTrust review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they'll be displayed as long as an account is active.
I like the station except for the old Judge on freedom file. I feel like that guy is not a conservative. And he annoys me every time I’m drinking my coffee in the morning when he comes on. I switch the station. He’s always against Trump it seems and things that are going on with the Republicans. I feel he’s more democrat than anything. I thought this was a Republican station so if it’s not, I won’t be watching.
I really love the shows on NEWSMAX PLUS, especially Greg Kelley, Chris Plante, etc. But the little of bit of juice you get between the commercials is not worth the squeeze. I just cancelled my subscription because I don't think anyone should have to pay to watch commercials. And the commercials seem to consume so much more time than the actual shows. Sorry, I will miss my shows, but NOT the never ending commercials.
I used to love newsmax but I'm really getting tired of paying money for a channel that crashes all the time. It's always kicking back to my home screen, freezing up, or buffering. Going back to Fox News channel
Greg Kelly was so nasty about Pete Hegseth that I cannot watch his program anymore. Greg is supposed to be a great Christian but he did not act like one on this occasion.
Your female hosts are so distracting 'Still' with their low cut clothing and their hair is distracting as well! Please change what you think many subscribers would agree with me. It's a News program, not a fashion show!!!
I am sick of all the neverending commercials on your channel! You give us little news and commercials every 5 minutes, that last longer than the news time you offer. It's ridiculous.
When Newsmax was free, it came on without problem. However, ever since I've been a monthly subscriber, the Newsmax App has given us nothing but grief!
Sometimes I'll get the news and sometimes it stays frozen and won't budge.
When I call for technical help, they tell me to "uninstall" the app and then "reinstall"
This is tiresome and frustrating for for someone who pays a monthly subscription as this does NOT happened with other apps. I get live streaming very easily with everything else, with all apps that works beautifully...but NOT Newsmax.
It's very faulty, half the time doesn't work, won't come in, very frustrated.
Newsmax needs to get it's act together since they are now charging for it.
I'm seriously thinking of dropping my subscription with Newsmax.
This has to do with Greta and her horrible coverage of the Republican Convention. She kept interrupting everyone to express her "unique" opinion and at times was just plain argumentative. I left FOX a while ago for Newsmax and typically love the hosts, but Greta was horrible on FOX and now she's stinking up Newsmax as well. Please please don't let her ever host something as important as the Convention ever again.
I cannot understand why Newsmax cannot…ahe a curret nerws reporter who can break in with news developments.
I cannot understand why Newsmax cannot cut into their warmed over shows with a current. happening/development. I am having to go to CNN to see a current event that just happened. I get so tired of their warmed over shows. Why would I pay for something extra when I do not like what they are showing in the first place.. They have no news reporter so anything that has happened you have to find out about the next day. They need a current reporter who can break in with developing news.
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.
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.
The price for paid subscription? Horrible service!
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!
The app will not remember that I am a customer. I have to re enter the password every day or two. I finally got tire of it and canceled my subscription.
