I really like the site. I just subscribed to it for a pound. All the news in one place. Can't complain. News aggregator for the world. Useful, dunno what people are complaining about.
Horrible, horrible website. Intrusive ads, low quality submissions, and generally woeful customer service with no transparency. They are the bottom of the barrel of the Internet and run by a bunch of useless clowns.
Where is the minus star.
This site used to be excellent but now it appears to be more about adds and subscriptions than anything else. Sadly it's a site that I will no longer visit.
Used to be the best go to site to follow your team, but comes up way too short these days. Will look for something better, something I have more control over and something that isn't going to keep asking me to subscribe! No effective or efficient way of blocking specific sites just crazy!
The ads are horrific and they have learned to defeat adblockers. Very expensive if you want to pay.
Ive stopped using newsnow as you cant read a report for multiple adverts popping up as you scroll so you end up clicking on them by mistake, either that or you have to subscribe to read them
Love the concept, but as a football fan there are several sites I want to block. For some reason my Email is never recognised so I can never log in to block. When I try to create account, you already have an account flags up Frustrating
they censored all russian news sources after 2022 site used to be great since you could quickly and easily see what both sides said in a conflict, especially with less known sites like during the Azerbaijan conflict, it would show you quickly and easily what both parties were saying. but now we have one of the largest conflict in europe since WW2, and clearly an agenda happened, now the site only wants me to see one side of the story, and as someone who does research this made this site totally useless now. so i use something else now thank you.
Waste of space, bombarded with adds, more adds=more add blockers =less money...
They are great as a time saver. Ignore the moaners. Ads can be disappeared with a simple click of the cross and I've never ever had any ads problem.Or, Pay a newspaper subscription. I do that too.
Great classified portal. I bought the right apartment thanks to it
Newsnow is a pointless so called news site. I proved it by going into the site direct off google and it won't even load any news because there's that many adverts. So to cut the adverts out go through to the site using Firefox browser and use ad blockers. Then the site begs for you to turn off the blockers but not 1 advert and can read the articles clearly. The site would have more people read if they stopped thinking of the revenue rather than the person trying to read what they say is news. Use ad blockers and see the difference.
More Ads than News .. I gave up using. The Ads just obliterate the article. Never used to be like that. One subscriber lost.
U used to be good until u decided to change the format for some reason now your site is just pish constantly freezing
If I could give no stars I would have. News now Classifieds are hopeless. I registered to receive notifications for any rental properties with some land. Extremely rare and hard to find. I have had daily emails containing hundreds of town houses, properties for sale etc. In fact not one single property fitting my request. I cannot see how to unsubscibe and despite contacting customer service many times requesting they stop bombarding me these totally irrelevant emails I am still getting my email full of newsnow classifieds rubbish. I would not advise anyone to use this company and if any one can tell me how to stop them sending alerts please do. They are really,really bad . Stay clear.......
This site should be called 'No News Now'. It is rubbish constantly regurgitated throughout the day with headlines that make it sound like they just got a scoop. disappointment every time.
Putting times on stories of the time they linked them, not when it came out - On oil prices there was no story from OILPRICE.COM about oil prices, but it was in business. WE LANDED ON THE MOON!!!! I'm buying shres in NASA straight away, thanks for the tip newsnow. Get yourself an anti strangling collar... theres my tip.
This site seems very dubious in terms of scruples...e.g. unwanted charity ads plastered over people's screens without PERMISSION !!! so previous reviews mentioning ''virus'' etc...do not come as any surprise... Avoid if possible .
Every time I visit this site I get a virus, although it is easy to get rid of it means that they are negligent in security on their site and put their followers at risk. Hooking into China news is guaranteed to get you a virus.

NewsNow receives a mixed reception from users, with a significant majority expressing dissatisfaction. While some reviewers appreciate the site's ability to aggregate news from around the world and find it useful, as noted by a few who enjoy the convenience of having all news in one place, the overwhelming sentiment is negative. Many customers criticize the site for being inundated with intrusive ads, which they claim detracts from the overall experience and makes it difficult to read articles. Complaints about low-quality submissions and poor customer service are also prevalent, with users feeling that the site has deteriorated over time. Additionally, some express frustration over subscription requests and the inability to block unwanted content.
