Hey VLC its 2025, not 2005.
This is by far the most clunky excuse for a player.
It over complicates everything. It does that because the think power users will appreciate the detail.
But put things where no one would find.
Used them since they started. And seems Devs fell asleep and said its good enough. Its over rates and over complicated and does nothing other players do simply.

The system is worse at calculating then a 1970 Novus calculator.
This has to be the biggest scam ever. The AI is not intuitive enough to recall what it typed 30 seconds ago.

I CAN NOT RECOMMEND THIS POOR EXCUSE.
THE FACT THEY CHARGE FOR THIS IS INSANE.
It Can Not.

Calculate
Write Scripts
Tell time
Tell Date

THE BAD REAL BAD.
Is the system has so many errors and freezes it yielded the program dead and useless.
This is fake as fake AI could be.
Avoid in my opinion, used 1.5 years and its worse then ever.

The USPS should be removed as it is.
It is run horribly, they raise rates ands service is worse then it has ever been.
The lie lie lie, never ever help with anything.
DO NOT USE THERE LIVE CHAT YOU WILL BE WAITING 30MINUTES AND EVERYTIME I CHAT THEY SAY CALL MY LOCAL OFFICER WHO TELLS ME THEY HAVE THE SAME INFORMATION AS THE WEBSITE. WOW HOW ARE THESE CRIMINAL EVEN ALLOWED TO OPERATE THIS WAY.

THE USPS NEEDS TO BE DISBANED.

AVOID HERE IS WHY.
The apps are all server, short lived and then removed.
Why some app do stay there awhile I signed up for a lifetime and all I got was apps that were removed a few months after I signed up. None of my apps work today all are dead.
If you use this service count on losing access.
App Sumo, could care less about this as well they tell you to take it up with the developer.
Truth is I think APPSUMO owns the server and then limits the access as it makes no sense all these app fail and die off.

Lost allot of money, guy has no business giving stock advice.

I have used Twitter since day one.
Elon has turned this platform in to hate filled garbage from all sides. Its not a community of free-speech its a haven for hate and violence. As that is all 99% of Twitter is.
Using X, amounts to trying to pull and elephant with a shoelace. I have a business and Twitter X is useless.
How do you even reach people anymore.
And what was always free is now pay pay pay.
Nope. I hate to say it, but Facebook is far less hateful and violent.
Elon was clueless about what X Twitter was.
He destroyed it.
Instagram is better and more manageable since its connected to Facebook.
Elon screwed up big. Oh and I tried adjust my name profile, had not in months says you cant cause its rate limited ?? Hate Elon and Twitter.

Avoid:
They will not help you report a company they claim support then never respond or provide it.

DO NOT USE THEM, I WILL NEVER AGAIN USE THEM
YOU CAN NOT TRUST THEM OR THE PEOPLE THAT USE IT EITHER AS IT ALLOW SCAMS AND YOU CAN DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.

The support doesn't exist. There download app is non functioning and support is non-responsive.
I paid before but the app was always buggy so I went back to free. Honestly Google drive offers basically the same free space always work and syncs as it should.
A few years ago MEGA was the best.
No doubt they are losing money and no longer updating their software. Since its not working.
Shame there is no support wonder if they realize the files downloaded are corrupt.

For a novice who knows nothing about trading its great. A vast amount of information.
However they have next to no documentation, or instructions, so if you are new be prepared to flounder around. Or wait days to get back from support if ever.
This has become more chronic as they become bigger they are losing control of simplicity.

There are newcomers hitting the internet that do the same. And some are cheaper. If Finviz wants to be competitive they need to get a grip on this out of control system.

Unreliable with safety with your information.
ZERO SUPPORT.
ZERO SAFETY.

You are better off just building your own website over trusting them. The system was broken from the beginning, asking for help is the typical run around.
AVOID CAN NOT RECOMMEND,

Roku once a great platform, now garbage.
1. Support, none as its nothing you are on your own and they do not care, because they have a monopoly.
2. No site support, I mean just just that circle back to where you started nothing.

I HATE ROKU WITH A PASSION.
I think someone needs to start filing class actions, as they are horrible and do not do what they say.
Been with them nearly 15 years.

Yahoo -77% reviews.
Who care attitude.
Avoid Yahoo. Please do yourself a favor.
They charge you for support, their email never works.

AVOID THEM THEY ARE HORRIBLE.
THEY EXIST TO CHARGE YOU FOR SUPPORT NOTHING ELSE, CROOKS AND SCAMMERS.

They make it difficult to use, because the advertise wonderful access and then you pay and all that is hidden in more expensive tiers. I get pretty much their medium tier now for about 10.00 a month elsewhere.
Their news is dated and old by the time its released.
I have been a successful trader 35 years and thought why not make my life easier with some helpful tools.
And wanted to signup for their API. NO HELP AT ALL.

Reality is, they are not interested in your cheap account access. They want the larger companies and want that income. MHO do yourself a favor and look for someone that caters more to the retail investor.
These guys have and amazing sales pitch. But based on the reviews I see are just like mine, so ole same ole promise the world, and deliver a rock.

AVOID NOT VERIZON BUT SCAMMERS.
They lie and bait and switch.
Verizon can not help you as VICTRA is a contractor.

The store in Roseburg, Oregon is run by dishonest scammers.
THESE PEOPLE NEED TO BE REPORTED.

Liars and Thieves.
They claim support they offer none.
The 2.7 stars rating is too high for these guys.
They hide behind there contact process and are there to help until you pay.
There are bad companies, and then there is these guys.
The product does not do what it claims. Never would activate and this is a year later trying to get support. A year and well this review is justified. AVOID unless you want to blow money on garbage, and poor support. READ BELLOW THEY WILL SAY:
Not the experience we want our customers to have.
I rebuke that, you gave exactly this.

A Honest Fair Review
I want to give 5 stars, but can't quite.
I have used them a year. The service is good and uptime reliable. I have found it confusing to find data and solutions. They offer a huge range of products.
This awesome, they have limits and will restrict access if you go over. This is a better practice then others that just ding your credit card if you go over.
Its a very important part people need to consider.

I want to tell people that be careful as historical data if used often will burn through your bandwidth quickly. I wish there was a real time bandwidth usage on the same page as calls and 30 bandwidth.
Makes it hard to monitor.

Pros:
Very accurate real time data.
Straight forward API and usage.
Very Python and other source friendly.
Spreadsheet access via api a huge plus for many.

Cons:
Hard to calculate or test a script bandwidth in real time. ( current new restriction in place means this has to be addressed)
Support is nice and friendly, but response can take awhile.
Bandwidth should be 30GB not 20. and Base account. Second should be 60 not 50 same reasons.
And ultimate should be 120 not 100
If you run 1GB each day on base and weekends you will run out the limit is actually .666MB daily use. Very hard to manage.

In closing they are one of the best APIs out there.
Most id give 1 star. The company restricted access limits enforcing them due to abuse. However they di dis not adjust the Bandwidth.
The calls in each category are manageable.
We all would like more, but if you code right the calls can stay very low. The bandwidth which is hard to see real time is also the most critical limit.
My renew is coming up, I am unsure yet about renewing. Some said was hard to cancel. I quick email and it was handled well. I always cancel after signing up so I can monitor recurring charges so was not a negative.
FMP is good near great. Just a few small things.
It would also be helpful to have a better wat to see what APIs are more data intensive. There is allot of help sections, but finding the information can be daunting. But they are a very solid 4 starts, if other issues are ever address . Id add the extra star. They are so close to it :)

I have used Turbo Tax Since 2020.
Before that I just did my own. I began investing, and found it was easier. Our Income is odd in that we have two W2 Two stock accounts, SSI and SS income.
Which is allot of paperwork. I do not use electronic filing. I tried in 2020 and hated the process. So this review is for using the services and for filing via mail.

1. The website is good. The latest updates for 2024 were not that good. Had a clinch which took 10 minutes to resolve.
2. The live support I did not use this year. But have and they are helpful, friendly and work until its solved.
3. If you have allot different areas they do a good job.
4. Intuitive website.
5. Fair priced considering a tax preparer is more and requires allot more leg work.

I see allot of negative reviews and I think allot of that has to do with electronic filing. Which I do not use.
For my use they save me allot of time. And leg work.

AVOID Gameservice24 STALLS THEN SCAMS YOU.

THEY ACTUALLY SELL FAKE MICROSOFT KEYS RIGHT OUT IN THE OPEN TO UNSUSPECTING BUYERS. AVOID THEY ARE NOT A LEGIT COMPANY THEY ARE SELLING FAKES.
TRIED TO RESOLVE THEN THEY PUT YOUR ACCOUNT ON HOLD AND REFUSE ANYMORE CONTACT OR REFUND AVOID.
EDIT THEY THEN TELL YOU TO CONTACT THEM AND THEN NEVER SUPPLY SUPPORT AVOID OR YOU COULD LOSE MONEY LIKE 100% .
Funny they can respond here, yet they can't a support ticket. I am giving them until Tuesday 14 or I will take my experience public to my audience. I want it clear I am giving them every opportunity to resolve the issue by that date. The owe me18.41 for selling me a fake Windows Server 2022 key. They can resolve by refunding at once. And I will remove this review. But they have until Tuesday or it will stay as it would then appear they are truly scammers.

After fighting with them for over a month they finally refunded my money.
I raised my review to two stars because of that.
However there is no reason me, a loyal customer since they started. Should be treated like garbage and lied to. And then make you fight over a refund cancelling just a day later for their ANTIVIRUS that did not work well at all and slowed my machine to a crawl.

Careful, they lie about what you are supplied. They refuse refunds.
So keep that in mind. Even if they fail to supply services they will keep your money and refuse a refund.
AVOID. NOTHING THEY SAY IS TRUE IN MY OPINION AND MY EXPERIENCE THEY ARE NOT SUPPLYING SERVICE I PAID FOR.
As far as customer service about as arrogant responses you will see. They are huge, and they know it. You are just a number to them, nothing they claim is true. There news is not real time, and charts are not accurate in my experience. Worthless, fake information. Again in my opinion and my experience and they have not shown or responded in a way I cant trust a word they say.
