A one-year subscription costs $99. The offer is to spend $99+ and get $99 back, so it's a free one-year subscription.

Get a one-time $99 statement credit after using your enrolled eligible Card to make a single subscription-based purchase of $99+ online at The Motley Fool or at fool.com/amex [fool.com] by 5/8/2021. See terms.

Quote :
Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. American Express Prepaid Cards, Corporate Cards and American Express Cards issued outside the United States are not eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid only on US website or at Fool.com/amex. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. The enrolled Card account must not be cancelled or past due to receive statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 5/8/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. The Motley Fool Terms and Conditions currently provide that unless you notify The Motley Fool that you want to cancel, or that you do not want to auto renew, your subscription or membership fee will automatically renew for another subscription period (subject to applicable law) of equal length (for example, monthly, or annually). This means that The Motley Fool will collect the then-applicable membership or subscription fee and any taxes by charging a credit card The Motley Fool has on record for you without notifying you, unless notification is required by applicable law. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items from your qualifying purchase have been provided/shipped by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your transaction as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you may not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer.

Send an email to [email protected] after you have signed up requesting opt-out for the auto renewal. After I did that, they sent me an email that said: "we have disabled the auto-renewal feature"

If you search online - you will find 2-year packages to StockAdvisor or Rule-breakers for only $98 (one-year for $59)

Rule Breakers (1-Year) for $99:

TURN OFF AUTO-RENEWAL
All Motley Fool premium subscriptions are set to automatically renew for your convenience, and to ensure uninterrupted access to your premium service's investing guidance. If you would like to turn off the automatic renewal feature, we can assist.

To help with your request, please email us at [email protected], or by filling out the online Contact Customer Service form.

PRIVACY SETTINGS for premium subscriber
My Fool > Data Preferences >> turn off

For Existing Subscribers
For people with existing Stock advisor subscription, if you buy and sign up with same email information as your existing Motley fool account, the new purchase will extend your expiration date by 1 year.

============================================
[b]For those curious how Motley Fool's stock picks are performing I setup a pie (portfolio) on M1Finance with 41 of the most recent suggested stocks from Tom and David. As long as I see reps coming from this thread so I know people are still using it I will update this link every Thursday to show the new recommendations.
https://m1.finance/2M-jgR32cPTC [Final update was on 04/08 due to apparent lack of interest].
M1finance gives you free trades and fractional shares which means you can transfer xxx dollars a week or 2 weeks and it will adjust it based on your percentages.
Advantage of fractional shares is explained well here: https://www.fool.com/investing/ho...al-shares/

For the people complaining about to much spam before you go crazy and cancel your account, go into your account settings and uncheck what you don't want. I have everything unchecked but the buy/sell alerts in stock advisor. https://www.fool.com/account/comm...-settings/

I just signed up. The first thing they do is try to sell you upgraded services for anywhere from $200-$14,000. The "premium" service we get is nearly useless. The last stock picks article is from December 28.
Swagbucks has 7500SB for the $99 yearly subscription as well, should be stackable for a nice MM.
Market correction coming soon for GameStop.

Finally got the $99 back from Amex - so roughly around the same time others have posted - purchased on Jan 29.

I was thinking about trying it out anyway for 1 year - was hoping for some deal. Essentially just paying for the tax at $8. Not bad - will see how it goes, and decide later if i want to continue.

These types of news letters are for buy and hold long term. So after 1 year, if I like it - might just take 3 or 6 months gap and then get it again later on.

One of their picks has paid off very well for me over the past couple of weeks. I think I will load up on their other picks. Maybe these guys are onto something.

For those (with a subscription) that say they couldn't find any stock suggestions here's all the historical buy suggestions from most recent back: https://www.fool.com/premium/cove...mmendation

I'll be updating the link in the wiki to the m1finance pie every Thursday evening(so probably check Friday) to reflect the new buy recommendation as long as I see people giving me reps from this thread so I know they are still using it. Apparently the pie link is static and won't show future updates.

Are people actually doing cashback with this too? I would be afraid of doing that & it invalidating one or the other offer... namely the $99 refund

Quote from snoopaloop31 :
motley fool is a mouthpiece of hedgefunds. they pump a stock up because they are invested in it and want to drive the price up for their own profit. be careful with their guidance.

edit: if you have not seen the video of Jim Cramer bragging about manipulating the public through financial media (like motley fool)... please go watch it before you order anything.
Like GME was due to Reddit.
Nope.

It is a game.
Learn THEIR rules or stay out.
In other words, pocket the wins*; don't buy and hold. Rinse repeat.
*your judgement call, but small caps go big, so invest small and pocket large; large caps pocket small gains, but invest big for security.

$99 from amex has nothing to do with cashback sites. It's based on the charge amount on the card. They don't receive info on any cashback sites you use.

Yeah...gov workers and teachers. The other 90+% of people...ie, the non-leeches of society who have private sector jobs, have no pensions, only 401ks.
Did anyone force you or deprived you of going into one of those professions / jobs (I am in that specific group you mentioned)? Why this contempt? I had teachers who were tough on me but I look back at them fondly. A person (that is me) who was taught by them with their meagre salary perhaps makes 10 times or more in salary and in a more enviable job. I can't share my wealth with them (Smilie but at least the gratitude / appreciation hug

It's subjective but I like m1finance...free, free trades and fractional shares...has a research section. Robinhood and Square cash app also do fractional shares. If you want to add all the stocks in the Motley Fool Stock Advisor pie I have in the wiki you can click on that url then click "save to my account" and it should help you set up an account if you don't have one.
