“Advise” vs “advice”

I've seen twice in in 30 minutes how someone had said that they wanted advise on [...] subject, or how they needed advise on [...].

Is this correct?


In both American and British English, 'advice' is the noun and 'advise' is the verb. Both your examples are incorrect, because they use 'advise' as a noun. It would be correct to say "I want/need to be advised on X" or "I want/need advice on X".
