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

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.

I signed up on feb 1 with the Amex platinum, and as of today no credit yet .

Did anyone see the transaction credited yet?

Perhaps related: the feb PayPal purchase is not credited either after 6 days. My Jan purchase was credited within 48 hrs. Did Amex change the timeline of crediting our accounts?

If someone says something abusive which gets reported (something I'm not aware of if it did happen) then the mod would come in, delete the inappropriate posts and private message one or both of the parties involved...this can go from a warning all the way up to a complete ban of the site depending on how many times you've been warned in x time and the severity.

The only other case I know for posts being deleted is if they listed competitor sites to slickdeals or were reported as spam. Typically the mod just removes the link but could opt to delete the whole post and any posts that quoted it.

One of the cashback sites being used in combination with the amex offer was considered a competitor and it's link was removed from the wiki. It's possible they also removed posts that mentioned it but that's rare.

I agree with your first part. For the second part, I thought slickdeal doesn't belong to a cashback website, how come other cashback sites will be considered as the competitors?

They prob combed through this thread and deleted all the comments discussing other cash back sites. I assume SD gets referral links from Fool and doesn't want people using the other sites. I got a message today about it which is why I assume it was removed from the wiki as well.

Your guess is as good as mine....I assume any site that overides their affiliate links so they can't make money off us is considered a competitor.....you did know they did this right? They change every link to use their affiliate id.....they don't do manage the site for free...we get to be both the product AND the solution.

I updated the M1Finance Motley Fool Stock Advisor Pie in the wiki to 31 recommendations. The latest comes from a vidcast with David Gardner aired at 1pmest. As a teaser they include some common sense picks in the areas of waste management and alternative energy, 3d printing and railroads.

Do they release picks at a certain time every week? I think maybe Thursday 10AM or something like that? I get the e-mail, but it comes at variable times.

Yup, we're pawns in their money-making machine. But smart shoppers will always go through a CB site separately.

I believe it's normally announced in the podcast/vidcast on thursday....1pm was the time I knew but there was a rule breaker vid with David Gardner yesterday. If you look at the "buy now" tag posts you'll see a handful for each week. I took january and december along with feb's picks....and will try to update it as more announced. The 5 from Tom were repeats of previous suggestions/additions so I added some mentioned from the David Gardner vidcast which are all older picks they still like.

Tried this and canceling even though it is essentially free. I was expecting something akin to a Marketwatch that I won't pay for since they have enacted a paywall. I was not impressed with the website or content and as others have mentioned the promoted email spam just keeps coming even though I turned off all the subscriptions. If this is for you then great deal but just not what I was expecting.

Why not see if you can transfer the membership to someone that wants it if youve already received the credit? They'd probably cover shipping and maybe a couple of beers worth of beer money.

The transaction posted to my amex card on 02/01. Today the $99 credit shown under Offers/Saving. I think it will post tomorrow.
