It may be a useful tool but... It may be a useful tool but for me, pc slowed slowed down and froze. Had to clear out cache and as that became a regular thing on visiting, I no longer use them. If it is too good to be free, then its not! Not keen on their cookies and stuff as I believe it was seriously affecting my pc.

Fixya or 6ya Fixya or 6ya. They're the same. Posted question on Fixya over 2 years ago. Only "answer" was link to 6ya who wanted to sell subscription before looking at question to see if they actually had answer. Not trustworthy. Fixya gets around their statement of not charging for answers by referring customers to 6ya. Question has been listed as "Solved" but that "solution" was the reference to 6ya.

Received email 7 years after OP I now received an email 7 years after I posted my initial question regarding a Samsung “Smart” TV that was only 3 years old and started having picture issues. I was confused for when I clicked on the “updated help” a Server Error 404 - File or directory not found. I’m not sure if FixYa is a valid site anymore or if it was in the first place.

Steals answers from other websites Steals answers from other websites. Adds a shoddily placed ''source'' without mentioning what parts they took from where, and then have the audacity to ask you to pay for their service if you want actual help. Full of plagiarism and seeks to abuse the unknowing or unwitting by offering 'easy' help that really won't lead you anywhere a simple Google search wouldn't have brought you.

I called Sling for support they sent to 6ya I called Sling for support, Sling said they would have a tech expert call me and sent me to a website to set up the call, they (sling or 6ya) asked for my cc info to verify my identity. I thought that was weird and should have known better, but I wanted my tv to work. I then got an email from Tyler saying that his call didn't go through and I need to turn off my spam blocking. Later I got an email that said my problem was resolved and then an email invoice for my 14.99 subscription charged to my credit card. They did not resolve my issue, they never talked to me. Of course their is no unsubcribe on their emails.
