cancelation
Dear vjackson, Hi, i work at livecareer. I apologize if you were not able to get hold of someone when you called. The $4. 95 subscription is good for 7 days and we rely on you to cancel whenever you are finished. If you do not cancel we will assume that you are still using our service. Many of our customers continue to use our service for several month...
Read full review of LiveCareer and 27 commentsstay away from this terrible site
Do not use this site! I had to do a last minute resume and this site popped up when I typed in free resume maker. I spent awhile making the resume and at the end you have to pay a $5 free to be able to download it. I was in a rush so I paid the fee and downloaded the resume... And it sucked! It looks terrible and in no way usable. On top of that after a week if you don't cancel your account they will charge you a $35 fee... I immediately canceled and demanded a refund, but they only gave me back a "prorated" $27... That means I paid about $10 for an unusable and crappy resume. Stay away from this terrible site! I will dispute with my credit card company to get the rest of my money back!
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
this site is a scam, avoid at all costs
This site is a scam if they did not have a link to click to agree to the upcharge it is illegal. Call you credit card company. Scam scam scam.
Every other company that I have a subscription with will send an email before charging your card: Amazon, The Honest Company, Birchbox, etc. I can't believe this business is so dirty and unprofessional to charge for a download and then sneak in a subscription fee that the consumer is just supposed to remember to subscribe! And it sounds like some people have trouble with cancelling their subscription and getting charged anyways. I asked for a refund, but if they do not send one, I am going to call my bank and see if I can get a refund there.
The automatically withdrawal after 14 days trial is not clearly stated on the term page. They kept going back and forth about "it is written all over the webpage and clearly stated". No, it is not. I never agree and allow them to automatically withdraw from my credit card and never agree to pay the $40.00/month. I only agree on the 14 days trial to learn about their products. If no radio button that says "You authorize us to automatically withdraw from your visa/mastercard if not cancel within 14 days", it is illegal.
Cannot agree more. The company is horrible and I do not think it just for them to continue their business.
I totally agree. Could we find any body to sue them together?
Highly unprofessional company. Very poor communication, ambigious terminology on Web site and, from other comments across the Web and Better Business Bureau, apparent fraudelnt activities regarding recurring charges to customer credit cards. DO NOT USE this company. Better idea: borrow a resume writing guide from the library.
If Live Career was a honest business, they would not have to trick you into if you dont cancel in 7 days you will automatically be enrolled into there 34.95 a month service.
If you wanted that service, they should have it available seperatly to sign up for.
this was an awful experience
I needed a last minute resume for a class assignment so I googled 'resume templates' and found livecarer. It looked legit so I spent a good 30 minutes putting in my information. Nowhere does it say that you will have to pay to use the template! Then they make you create an account, and after you've done that they say that you have to pay $4.95 for a seven day trial, but somewhere in the terms and conditions there is a provision that if you don't cancel they will start to charge you $34.95 a month! Who in the h#$% changes jobs so much they need a website to hang onto their resume for frequent updating?! This is definitely a scam model. I called two days after they charged me the $34.95 to find out what was happening, told them to cancel my account and give me a refund, but they wouldn't give me the full amount and said that the refund amount was prorated because of the two days I had. I told them I would write an honestly negative review if I didn't get all of my money back and they hung up on me. We'll see if I actually get a partial refund. Either way, this was an awful experience. Stay away!
they don't care about customer service
Do not use this site! I had a billing issue with them. I called and talk a man named rj. He was very rude. He keep laughing at me and hung up on me. I called back and rj was the one who answered my call again. I asked to speak to he supervisor... Once again he laughed at me. When speaking with his supervisor, the gentleman said that I was the one that ended the call. He didn't even listen to the call. Bad supervisor. Do not use this site! They don't care about customer service. They did refund my money and was asked not to use their site again. Like I said great customer service.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
I used the service to build my CV. I know longer need my account and want to cancel. This is not easy in any shape or form. The company have taken two payments of £26.00 in the past three weeks. I do not have a lot of money as I have only just started working. I visited my bank yesterday to ask if they could assist me in stopping live career taking anymore money. They are now in the process of doing this for me.Its been a worrying experience and I have been left feeling violated.
Check this out! Scam! Go to livecareer.com or type in any search "livecareer scam" they take your money! You can't print out your resume without giving a credit card! Then they keep making charges to it! When you contact them they don’t refund your money! They get you by avertising on gooogle as a "free"rsume site and after helping you with making a resume you must pay to be able to download or print your resume. That's right they do it often
They refused to provide me with a refund of $149.95, taking MONTHS and MONTHS of charges from me without telling me, even after they said it was FREE and only a "trial"! They are thieves and they lie to their customers. I warn you STAY AWAY!
It advertises that it is free until you go thru and do a great resume and then bam! You have to pay in order to print it. And then they charge you $35 per month on your credit card until you call and cancel. STAY AWAY!
I used this site before and it was an awesome way to make a resume. Though I wanted to print out a resume months later and I was going to pay the $5 fee for another week, I was charged $34.50! Seriously? For one week I paid $35. These people are snakes and liars! Do not use them! I cant not even begin to explain how furious I am. I cant stress enough how horrible and rude their customer service team is.
AWFUL! I canceled and continued to be charged 35.00 a month! and they now state they cannot find ANY documentation stating that I canceled. I had wanted a one time only and now having to fight them using my bank. THEY ARE rip offs and scam artist!
I used the "introductory offer for a 7 day trial to format an old resume. Once the resume was changed, I called and cancelled the subscription just like the fine print directed. 7 days after the 1st charge of 4.95 was taken out, 2 additional charges of 34.95 were automatically taken from my account. So a total of 74.85 has been taken out of my account to date so far for this account that was canceled hours after I used it. BUYER BEWARE!
I hate, hate, hate, how companies do the bait and switch on people. They tell you that it will cost you only $4.95 for 7 days of use and the next thing you know your bank account is dinged for $34.95! If you would put THAT in bold print before the $4.95 sales pitch, you at LiveCareer.com would not be getting such ugly reviews.
I have no experience with this site, but it has forced arbitration in it's user agreement. Don't use this site!
Charged me even after I canceled the Acct and not at the 4.95 I paid but a higher 34.95 amt. DON'T USE THEM!
not sure how they keep good rating
I thought I was purchasing the $4.95 7 day trial version of the resume template... I experienced some formatting issues but wasn't too concerned for $4.95. I also converted the template to word for ease of modification.But I was charged 34.95 in June and then 34.95 again in July, both charges included an additional $1.04 foreign transaction fee...The deception is a significant concern, since the website comes up first on the list when googled...they also have an A rating with the BBB--not sure how they keep that rating. I will discuss with my Visa rep how to block future transactions, and may have to converse with the fraud department in order negate the additional payments. From other comments on your website, it apprears that several people have experienced the identical scenario. The BBB website indicates they have received 12 complaints in the last 6 months. Most of which are Billing related.I will contact them as well.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
I cancelled my account on 11 January 2023 and received a confirmation email and have been charged every month after that for 14 months without using any services . When I spoke with their customer care they refused to send me the billing details even though t they were able to see it clearly .
