They subscribed me with auto-renew before disclosing the price.
I was watching a Mentour channel on YouTube, and become interested in the Ground News Promotion. I wanted to get pricing info, so I started into the process. I assumed that before actually billing me, they would show a cost summary. Not so. AFTER logging my payment, they finally disclosed that the fee was 60 bucks, and worse, that they had set me up for auto-renew. I am still fighting this. I succeeded in getting Snap-wise, the payment processor, to shut off auto-renew, but I still do not know if I will get my 60 bucks back. Disgusted with Ground News and the Mentour YouTube channel.
Update 21April25
Since I have received a refund from Snap-Wise/Ground News, I have upgraded from one to three stars.

Great service, valuable information
The service makes it incredibly easy to see which organizations are owned by who and where their slant comes from. I really loved the Blindspot feed which shows news items that are only reported by one political side or the other. It was very interesting and telling seeing a timeline of which news items are amplified and which are ignored by certain political leaning. It really opens your eyes to just how corrupt legacy corporate media is.

Thank you for your 5 star review, David! We're pleased to hear you're finding the ownership data and Blindspot newsfeed useful! We're also glad to hear you're finding the multiple perspectives helpful when seeing who is reporting on a certain story and who isn't. We appreciate your support!

Hi Cesar, thanks for your positive review and I completely understand your concerns when sources re-publish the same stories as other outlets. If you have any other publishers we could add to the service to provide the coverage you're looking for, please email the team any source websites at feedback@ground.news and we're happy to add them for you.
Not yet the minimum viable product
The app is crashing frequently, or runs very slow and they continuously link to other news pages with ads or a paygate, with an even worse interface. It’s a good idea, but they need to curate their own news better and fix the app asap. It is far from a product worth to pay for.

As Europeans we are objective
As European it’s crazy to se that it’s ether Rep or Dem side. We all work across the borders of the political parties after elections and fight for the goal off the country and Europe instead of undermining the political parties.

Hi Robby, we completely understand your preference not to see sports news on Ground News. You can always use the "show me less" feature, which is available if you start a free trial. You can also contact our team at feedback@ground.news and we would be happy to set up this preference on your account.
DONT DO IT
DONT DO IT! Every article takes you to another website so you can read them regardless of ground news. Nothing is original. It is not worth the money spent and of course, no refunds.

Hi Margaret, we're sorry to hear that you are disappointed in your experience. Ground News is an aggregator, so being able to access original reporting from external outlets is what Ground News was designed to do.
inappropriate twist request for payment
This turned out to be my mistake when signing up for a free trial. I was being told that GroundNews was unable to take payment from my card and I should update my card. It took 3 or 4 emails to sort. Andrea and Bethlehem were incredibly patient and persistent and always polite. A very good experience.

The only sensible way to get updated on news today.
Ground News came as the perfect answer to my increasing concerns about information on social media. The personal control over what I wanna see is very refreshing. It’s the main place I go to be updated now.

Great Time Saver and Interface
I originally thought I'd just give the website a try, as Im an independent so none of the "left/right" political paradigm really fits in with me or my reading anyway, but now I check their app almost every day haha! It's still nice for me to he able to get a general overview of the news quickly, and from a clean and organised location, while being able to quickly see the biases of the media outlets etc., and I also really appreciate the customisable notifications. Job well done.

Hi Ariyan, we're sorry to hear about your negative experience. Ground News provides news content from every side of the political spectrum, so you will find "biased" news on the platform. The goal of Ground News is to help readers spot where bias is coming from, how it shapes narratives, and even cover their own bias blindspots. Any time you click on a headline in the platform, you will be presented with multiple sides of a story – from the left, center, and right of the political spectrum. Most stories come neatly packaged with a "Bias Comparison" that allows you to see how each of these sides differ at a glance. We are sorry if our comparison tools did not meet your expectations, and we welcome your feedback. You can easily unsubscribe by following the instructions listed in our Help Center or by emailing our team at feedback@ground.news.

Hi Karen, we're very sorry to hear about this experience. We have been working with you over email to try and locate this duplicate charge but we're unable to find it in our payment system and our team is diligently trying to locate it to help. If you can provide a receipt from Ground News for this charge, this will confirm the account it's connected to so we can work on processing a refund. We look forward to resolving this promptly for you.
Comprehensive in scope, reliable news you can believe
I rely on Ground News to keep me informed about issues I may not otherwise have seen in ‘traditional” media. It regularly happens that I learn about an issue on Ground News 2 days before it shows up in other online and traditional news sources. In addition, making the original reporting from across the spectrum available for drill-down empowers the reader to go as deep as they want It’s an incredible amount of information, packaged for easy consumption.

Wow!!, but Yuck!!!!!!
Wow!!! Great Idea!!!!! Just what we need, when we need it most!!! Progress!
Yuck!!! It's unusable, at least for me. I'm running Windows 11 and I use Firefox as a browser. Whenever I activate the Ground News application and it gets down to doing what it does (which I LIKE!!!, except...), it takes over all my system's run time operations. I don't think it's a malicious activity and my system's not showing and viruses. It's probably just a malfunction between Ground and FF. In any case, my computer completely becomes a piece of lead sitting on my desk.
I've reported this a couple/three months ago and they said they'd try to address it in the next roll-out but, if it doesn't come by June (my subscription renewal date), I'm at a spot where it's money thrown away.
I'm really being straight here, I love!!!!! the concept and it works just what I want when I've turned off the app and just access the website. But I'm not able to continue this way.
Anyway, I wish them good luck but June's just below the horizon and, when it does get here and there's been no fix, I gotta let go. And I'm gonna hate that.
