The masterclasses are like bitesize… The masterclasses are like bitesize info documentaries with only top-level information. Its ok but you are not going to get real detail, very light touch. I think if Masterclass were confident enough to give customers a taster course, they would probably get better reviews because their audience would be more aligned. It’s very magazine style that alludes to more meaningful content. Guessing that’s the need for the lack of transparently and gotch on renewal charges after a years signup. Sadly not for me.

Consumers Beware! Masterclass will not allow refund if a gift is “redeemed” which means just accessing the site means you are stuck even if no class is opened. I asked to cancel the gift after 10 mins on the site - never opened a lecture - refused simply because gift was “redeemed.” Master Class replied claiming that I am working with them to resolve the problem. That is false. I submitted this review only after refund was refused. Nothing is pending.

Woke Overload I found a few classes I loved, by people who are top notch at what they do and terrific at teaching it. However just a few. Masterclass is shamelessly "woke" - and I'm saying this as someone who's never been a conservative or voted Republican. MC offers a class on how to succesfully perform womanface (how admirable!), a class from Bill Clinton, and others from luminaries across the corporate media and academic liberal spectrum. Not a single thought leader who has a background or viewpoint that incompatible with predominant woke ideology. The few classes I liked weren't ideological at all, just great teachers.

They just charged me $180 today They just charged me $180 today. I signed up for a $10 class and did not realize I entered into a annual subscription. I never even completed the class. Please stay away from this company.

i am absolutely excited! i am absolutely excited about masterclass! i find real masters talking about their excellence. it’s a stunning quality of knowledge.
