Talk:BetterHelp

Link added =

Added link from Teladoc page to BetterHelp page where BetterHelp is mentioned. Also expanded intro summary as well as categorized page.216.0.4.206 (talk) 17:23, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

The edit history of this page is highly suspicious

All of the IPv6 edits are from the exact same place, two of the IPv4 edits are from Newark and all but two of the IP edits have NO history beyond editing the articles for BetterHelp and Teladoc. Though one of the aforementioned users edited the article for Talkspace, a service very similar to BetterHelp and may even be owned by the same parent. I feel this is either the work of company employees or paid "influencers", AKA online marketers. 51.37.18.160 (talk) 11:54, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

Please add bad TOS, sponsorships, controversy, additional information on counselors

This article needs a lot more information, especially concerning the controversy and TOS. People need to know the full history of the company, as well as the names of counselors/members, details of technology and methods used etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.65.109.233 (talk) 18:08, 16 October 2018 (UTC)

YouTube section

The source in the YouTube section fails WP:RS and WP:V on a number of fronts:

• Medium is a blog service (see WP:RSSELF).
• The piece is written by the founder of BetterHelp (see WP:SELFPUB)
• It does not mention PewDiePie by name, which is where it fails verification.

However, rather than remove, I've tagged the ref with {{Better source}} and {{Failed verification}}. (I am not watching this page, so please ping me if you want my attention.) Little pob (talk) 19:11, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Controversy

I reinstated the controversy section that was severely trimmed on 27 February 2019, this time with a proper source. As I forgot to add an edit summary, I'll be doing it here. It's a bit disingenuous to completely remove any reference of controversy. The sentence "A dispute arose in October 2018 after Swedish YouTuber PewDiePie (Felix Kjellberg) criticized BetterHelp as a scam after one of the YouTubers sponsored by BetterHelp got into a feud with PewDiePie." makes it sound like the only criticism came from someone because they didn't like another person who promoted it. There were genuine concerns voiced in reliable sources, attributed to notable people. These need to be mentioned too. Prinsgezinde (talk) 13:26, 7 February 2020 (UTC)

Why is the section "During the Israel–Hamas war, BetterHelp offered..." under Controversy? What's controversial about providing a free service? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MendyBerger (talk • contribs) 13:22, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

because it seemed at first like it was a israel-sponsored campaign 79.148.90.215 (talk) 11:49, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
