Banyan Hill Publishing Arvostelua 

Biggest group of charlatans I've ever encountered. Snake oil salesmen who have NO IDEA what they're doing. When the market is flying high, you'll make money, but so will any idiot. The stocks they suggest are mainly low liquidity, pure speculation plays. These only work in a bubble - not in other market conditions.

Shame on me. This is the third time I have been lured into the Banyan Hill scam over the last 15 years. This time it was Ian King's Strategic Fortunes. This was the most devastating move I have ever made trading stocks (I have been trading stocks for 40 years). I lost over $15,000 the first month following Ians recommendations to the letter.

He highly recommended Inseego when it was $20 a share saying it would go up to $80. It kept dropping and he kept saying to buy more… now it’s 62 cents a share. I lost a lot on other stocks too. Stay away and save your money.

Bottom Feeders - Paul and his team are your typical lowlife scammers. Pity them.

Portfolio shrunk by 80% after I subscribed and used their picks

This is a horrible company and a total hoax. They do nothing pro-active (like sending emails, notifications, etc). It is difficult to access their information. TOTAL RIP-OFF. This review is from someone with sizeable assets. .

In addition to extolling the virtues of stocks that were selling at ridiculous multiples, they contradict themselves in their own newsletters.. One will tell you what a great stock X is, another will say, stay away from stock X. Its just a way to sensationalize investing and gain subscription dollars. Anyone who invested in the market between 2016 and 2021 made money, There was no magic there. But the stocks I bought recommended by these folks are down twice as much as the market, if not more. STay away.

My subscription to banyanhill was a waste of time and money!! all the stocks they recommended and I did invest in are in big negative!!
Even though your subscription money is guaranteed you'll never take it out, thinking that eventually its a good recommendation till its to late.
DONT FALL FOR THIS SPAM!!!

I bought different subscriptions since 2019. Made money in 2020-2021 only to lose them all in 2022. Told me to buy at the top then hold through the bear market, will probably take 5-10 years to recover my losses.

They are the biggest cheaters. Do not fall in their trap.

I cannot vouch or comment on the advice given in their newsletters, but I can categorically state that I never provided them with my email nor consented to receiving their newsletters. In my opinion they are nothing but spammers.

I would absolutely recommend that no one buy this advice. 8 of 10 recommendations are losers and massive losers. A seasoned professional will recommend stocks when the risk of substantial decline is over. Do not buy his newsletter or follow his losing recommendations. My hunch is that he was fired from the firm where he used to work due to repeating giving losing advice

I believe there is a running theme here! Banyan Hill is a fraud of a company who sole goal is to rack up wealth by offering their failed systems and subscriptions to trusting people seeking support for their trading. When I look at the state of the times we are in it is these type of dishonest, defrauders masking as "professionals". I subscribed to Flashpoint with Clint Lee and EVERY SINGLE TRADE recommendation failed until they just stopped sending them! So in addition to the cost of the subscription, I have unfortunately lost $$$ on their trades. It is quite unfortunate...I understand there are risks in trading, but companies and individuals like this won't stop be unethical until their dishonesty costs THEM something!

My experience, like so many others, was disappointing because following the advice of many of their "prognosticators", is impossible as Banyon "gurus" give so many suggestions on a daily basis it is a "mugs" game to guess which ones to invest in...or are we supposed to invest in all? (If I had that kind of money, I would not need to invest.) Might as well just use a dart board and invest a very small amount on each choice....as long as there are no fees.

I had signed up for 3 total subscription services with Ted Bauman and Paul Mampilly since 2020, with mixed results on my returns. This was not my main problem with Banyan Hill, although I did not like the flaky change of mind on Ted Bauman's stock suggestions. My major issue is that both of these writers quit all the newsletters I am subscribed to in the last couple months. So now, the subscriptions are being taken over by new "editors", who will clearly have very different investment philosophies. Many of the stocks I picked are now in limbo and will have no more future guidance, thanks to Ted Bauman. Im really angry at Banyan Hill for this abrupt change and do NOT RECOMMEND anyone pay for any of their subscription service. Seriously, find a good, smart independent newsletter and go with them instead.

Signed up for both Profits Unlimited & Strategic Fortunes. Profits Unlimited has been a disaster. Nothing but losses since I joined. Now the lead "guru" Paul Mampily is leaving and Profits Unlimited is merging with Strategic Fortunes. Banyan Hill claim since they are rolling my service into another service, I am not entitled to a refund. Can't see how this is of value to me, since I'm already a paid Strategic Fortunes subscriber. Soooooo, I pay twice for Strategic Fortunes now? This company is terrible. Can't wait to be done with them entirely.

I recently saw the first newsletter from them. Trustpilot doesn't allow links so I can't share exactly my research, but I reviewed 2 of the 3 reviews they allegedly had from clients. From a quick search, 2 of 2 reviews were fake, client Edward is a picture stolen from an insurance campaign, and client Linda is a picture from an Amazon frame.
Everybody does it, especially start-ups, but if you have well-established results you wouldn't need to do fake client reviews. At the very least spend a couple of hundred bucks on the fake reviews pictures, don't just grab them from the web!

On July 15, 2022 Banyan Hill subscribers received an email that their guru, Paul Mampilly, was retiring from BH. I had a lifetime subscription to True Momentum that I paid $3k for in 2019. When I requested a pro-rated refund, I was flatly refused because someone else was continuing TM. I explained that I signed up for Paul Mampilly, not the 27 year old that was taking over the service.

Here's where it gets interesting. When I persisted with the customer service agent about the refund, he told me that I wouldn't know the difference with my service because Mampilly was just "the face" of the service and that "a team" made the actual stock picks. That made me want to cancel even more because I was lied to. Or more appropriately, scammed.

Anyway, I am done with BH. In my opinion they are only interested in selling subscriptions, even if they have to lie.

I subscribed to OneTrade, initially for life, but luckily was able to adjust it to just an annual. It was around $1500. It had a guarantee if it did not make money you would get the second year free, and they provided that. This program did not make money in the two years I was in it. I lost several thousand dollars. Playing the opposite of their advice also would likely not be very profitable, due to option premiums.

Sadly, I did not trust the poor reviews and I lost. They keep releasing products and I shared my good faith usage and even understanding that the system may not work due to economic changes the last 2 years, and I asked what they can do, in hopes to give me a shot at something else. They said no, and just wanted more money. Obviously, that is a no. I would have taken a trial of something else and if it worked, possibly remained a customer. Now I am 100% gone, and I truly encourage you to do the same.

Facts: OneTrade didn’t work these last 2 years and BanyanHill does not have your back.

They offered what they said, but when it failed twice, they were done…

We are sorry to hear of your recent investing experience. As you have already received your complimentary one year subscription to One Trade, we can not give you access or an extension to One Trade or any other subscription for free. You will need to become a paid subscriber.

I will be very brief. My 39 K has turned into 22K in two years. I just cannot imagine why and who these people are who are praising the services. Most likely these are the people who have been "bribed" indirectly by inviting them to events, and giving them a ton of free perks for writing good reviews.
