Forbes is smart… But

I’ve been reading Forbes magazine almost 50 years, so they don’t have to sell me on their worthiness. Yet as we often see in business the provider has not tried to buy their own product from themselves. I have a regular magazine subscription and am having a very difficult time figuring out how to get it digitally-which I think I would now prefer. So many less popular magazines have this available. One stand out is The Economist which gives you a beautiful digital, and a spectacular audio version to listen to while working out or driving. Hey Forbes– just copy The Economist digital/audio format. It has taken a lot of effort for me to get to this point, which is nowhere.

Subscription problems

I bought the promotion for a two year subscription. They took the money and issued an account number. However their app will not accept the account number or the other ways to login. I had Numerous contacts with customer service for subscriptions for two weeks I was passed around from one department to another. No one would focus on the problem and it never got resolved. I had to request a full refund. Is that crazy or what??

Poorly formatted app

I like having access to Forbes on my iPad, but this is the most poorly formatted app out of all of the news apps that I currently use. This is particularly true given the price of the subscription. I want to have access to the magazine; so I continues to subscribe. However, this is the only app that makes me feel the cost of the subscription is not consistent with the value of the technology.

App won’t recognize my subscription

I subscribed through the browser and paid. The app recognizes my login but says no subscription and wants me to pay again. Well, at least i can access content through my browser. Pretty heavy ad load however. One plus: browser access let’s you turn off auto-renew.

Love the magazine. The app, not so much.

I hate to ever leave a negative review, but my hope is the the magazine publishers realize how poor of a job their app developer is doing representing their brand. I’ve been a reader for years, and recently decided I wanted the magazine available instantly on my iPad. After paying for the subscription, the app still demands that I pay for every issue. It tells me that I need to activate my subscription, yet does not have any of my credentials recognized. I’ve given it a week to try to contact the developer, but still no response. Apple has issued me a refund, which still leaves me disappointed. I’ll take my money back, but what I wanted was the articles.

Something to trust

I don’t do ratings often but the last few years have made me value well researched, reporting that isn’t trying to sell me something. I have recommended Forbes to a few friends who have later thanked me. Thanks for making me look good, Forbes.

Struggling with this interface - really not well laid out

I love the quality of Forbes journalism, but the iPhone app is killing me. I see pictures with a word or two of text under them. Can’t tell what anything is about without clicking on it. There’s a banner asking me to turn on notifications permanently wasting a portion of my viewing area. Come on guys… this is shoddy design.

Have a Valid Subscription - Keeps Asking to subscribe

Worked fine for a few months, renewed subscription back in November and have not been able to access magazines since. Keeps asking to renew. Have sent multiple emails to support team and no feedback at all on the issue. No customer care number for Maz provided. Terrible customer service experience.

Horrible

I don’t even write reviews ever but this app was so horrible, I felt an obligation to speak out about it. Where do I begin…well I’ll start with the fact that it took a century just for the scroll to register. I mean I could’ve gotten up, popped a hot pocket in the microwave, taken a bite of it when it comes out just to realize it’s to hot, come back to my room….all before it took the time for the scroll to register. Second, I tried to search articles and nothing popped up. Then the user face seems so outdated and illegitimate, like I’d catch a virus from using it or like one of those apps you find advertised while watching an illegal stream. If I could give this app 0 stars, I would but I’m forced to give it a 1, but I guess I have to since the app actually turned on. Needless to say, I will not be downloading this app ever again. Forbes, more like Horbs (short for horrible).

If you're a businessman on your way up, Forbes is not just a necessity, it is almost a requirement and prerequisite for your success. The app is very easy to use. Just as the brand itself, it never disappoints. It is always a go to place where you can find the stories of the movers and shakers of modern America.
