Garbage!!

I paid money for this app and it does not list most of the items I need info on. Please don't waste your money on this scam of an app!!!!

Hasn’t worked in months

I’ve been paying for consumer reports for about a decade. I don’t use it all the time. It’s clutch when shopping for appliances or a used car. Now my dad needs hearing aids and his buddy spent $3k on some and they don’t even work, so naturally I go to open the CR app and “something went wrong” atop a white screen is all I get. This has been the case for months. Never seen an app fail like this for this long. I’m starting to wonder if Consumer Reports is failing as an organization. Might be just another case of greedy c suite management bleeding the organization dry.

The website works but not the app

No matter how many times I load and delete the app it tells me that my password is wrong even though the website accepts the password. The app simply does not work.

Get paid commissions

Consumer Reports AI denied that they received commissions until I went into their details and found it and cut pasted it and then their AI admitted it.
Used to play on words. Then kept saying, but that doesn’t affect any of their reviews.
This is the third or fourth time I’ve tried to post a review
