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:

Stock Advisor (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
My Fool > Data Preferences >> select "The Fool may NOT sell my data"

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.

Is it quick to cancel for a refund? It took their support a week just to turn off auto renewal.

did cancelling the original transaction and re-subscribing affect the Amex credit?
Nope, though it was posted a week late and I had to open a ticket with AMEX support but it was posted.

I believe you can cancel on the account settings page without having to contact them

Appreciated, this is the information I was looking for. I have been trading successfully for 22yrs without their advice. Majority is basic advice or information that anyone today can find by message board, news articles, websites with companies information. I always recommend never following anyone blindly even places established like the Motley Fool.

Same with me. I don't know if there's any way to check with them. It seems they don't cover stock advisor subscription.

Rulebreakers and Stockadvisor are in their exclusion list. This was already known in the terms. Don't know why people proceeded to try Samsung CB.

I have same question. I just subscribed to their email and I got 75% off offer which is 2 year for 99$. I am thinking to try it. But is credit on amex only showing after 30 day refund period?

Purchased on the 1st. Amex credit finally posted today. What a waste of my time constantly checking for 2 weeks. Going to go in now to turn off auto-renew since this spam service seems useless.

My purchase (via AA shopping portal) posted on 1/28, got an email from amex stating the offer was used but no credit applied yet.

EDIT: posted 2/9

What does your AA eshopping account show? Did the 14900 miles post to your AA account yet or pending?

AMEX told me today that I would have to wait up to 90 days to see a credit on my account.

Also, the charge to my account was $164. I only subscribed to advisor. Anyone else see this apparent overcharge? AMEX won't move on it until I ask them first for an adjustment.

No CC credit, an apparent overcharge and endless spam (in addition to nearly worthless investment "advice"). I was a little too impulsive on this one and relied too much on AMEX's reputation and past performance on credits. Best I can do now I think is damage control.

This is easily the worst deal I have ever chosen to buy on SD. If I got all my money back right now with no more additional effort, this would still be a ripoff. Live and learn.
