Once I took the first step to set-up my Career Profile information, I started to see great results for the higher paying jobs in my job search. The service was no risk with their 30 day trial period w/ a 30 money back guarantee. Their Customer Service Department was very knowledgeable, courteous and honest. $39 Membership is a great value. If your looking for Interviews, Climber.com is for you. Sincerely, Michael Riches
This is a scam. Impossible to access once they have oversold their services. Buyer beware! After a week of constant emails and deflection to numbers for cancellation, you best call your payment choice CC company and enter into a dispute to recover funds. % 500 dollar purchase for the rewrite was told now required $ 649 rewrite to truly acquire the desired effect to SPEAK to a specialist. Do your self a favor use proven resume professional perhaps pay morel. Do look at Climber reviews I wish I had
Climber.com is a full on scam operations. I signed up for the 30 day, cancel if not satisfied - I received a resume review "offer" to the tune of several hundred dollars. I decline. I have since tried 3 times to cancel - calling is to no avail - you will end up in a voice mail endless cycle. I have gone on their website (today makes three times) to cancel as my bank account keeps getting deducted for their monthly services... LACK of services say I. Their list of recruiters are mostly recruiting agencies that have long since been closed. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM GROUP
Tip for consumers:
DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS COMPANY -
NOT only does Climber not deliver on the Satisfaction Guarantee it purports, but it borders on being libelous. It appears that their intent is to utilize fast talking sales representatives that paint you a rosy picture of what they will do. After they suck you of your funds, you never get any response from that person. Then they surreptitiously make every attempt to take more money without authorization and providing any support. It's their modus operandi... I am in current litigation to get all my money back and so should you if you were scammed by Climber. Ask Climber management what their employee turn over rate is...? The one guy I talked to quit the next day because he didn't want to work for an unethical company any longer!
Everything is a loss at this point with Climber.com. They Suppose to find me a professional jobs for me 7 months ago and I still have nothing Instead, I continue to receive requests for more and more information on achievements and possible jobs that I am seeking to apply to. In essence, they are trying to get money from you. After many months of finishing my three months of getting nothing from them, they attached my credit card again for two more months of every month 33$ and some cents. I contact them and warned them about it. If they don't return back my recent taken money without my permission, I am going to...
Please becare
They do absolutely nothing and do not want to refund your money within the 30 day timeline although their system says, "We offer a full 100% money back guarantee If you cancel your paid account within the first 30 days and one of the simplest refund policies online simply cancel". They try to up sell you (almost an additional $400) to use their service for revising your resume. I cancelled within the stated timeline and received a nasty call inquiring where I obtained the refund policy and was told it wasn't applicable to my membership. I had to get my bank involved.
ITS A FRAUD! Climber.com meet all of the essentials elements to prove they are fraudulent. Misrepresentation, Impracticability, supervening illegality, impossibility, promise induced by detrimental reliance, possess legal incapacity deceived during the transaction and inability to perform. They bate recent graduates from colleges by indicating they are employment service. Yet they do nothing but bate you to buy there resume service on a NOTHING claim.
Ian called me to tell me about Climber.com's services. It all sounded decent, but I didn't want to sign up right then. He was determined to get me signed up. When I refused, he said, "quit wasting my time!" And he hung up on me.
Saw absolutely nothing from the employment service, web site creation waste of time. The company has no customer service and the " real time tracker is absolute BS. Once you start paying for service they do not stop billing even after canceling on website. No one will call you back and the answer machine only answering the 800 number no real person answering phone which means they do not call you back
RUN! This company is a fraud. They'll charge you for things you didn't authorize, regardless of whether you cancelled or not. There is also an alert that pops up on the site, which you have to check "yes" in order to get to the next page, and this "yes" winds up in a charge to your credit card. When contacting the company to complain, they said, "This isn't our company... it's a different company. We aren't responsible for what they charge you". Total B. S. I complained that I wasn't doing busines with this "other company" and that it's a misrepresentation for them to have pop-up ads on the Climber website, telling you that you can't go further w/o clicking "yes", and they turn around and charge you. STAY AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE. There is nothing legitimate about this company. I'd suggest that you dispute any credit card charges.
I had a couple of calls. No message the first time and the second message the woman left such a rude VM "go ahead and call us back" How rude! There was no way I was returning. Glad I reviewed before I called them back.
I went to this web site because of a job posting I saw. I had to give them my credit card to log on. Once I did the job was no longer available. After checking out what they offer I was underwhelmed to say the least and canceled my subscription. I called their "customer service" and got voice mail. When I got a return call and told the agent what my experience was he basically hung up on me without verifying that my card would not be charged. I guess I will have to wait and see what happens on my statement.
This site is a joke. They promise a professional resume review but the review I received was full of grammatical errors and was a clear cut and paste job. It is clear they have standard language they use to review resumes and they just paste in quotes from your resume. It is also clear that they do not tailor the resume review to the industry you are targeting. Thankfully I did not pay for the service and was under a trial period. I would strongly recommending paying for this service through this site. They'll also inundate you with generic spam-like emails - I was getting several a day.
I was receiving almost daily emails and I was on the fence... I received a phone call and he was nice and professional at first... and as I hesitated and "Googled" as I was speaking to him, he got more pushy and then nasty and finally yelled at me that I was wasting HIS time... HE called me! He hung up on me. I was simply stating my reservations and never lost my cool, but his true colors came exploding out and now I would NEVER consider or recommend. A company like this should be able to sell themselves solely on its accomplishments. No real information was shared... they really had NO clue as to my abilities... yet for $99 for 3 months they could land me a $60k job. Maybe they could, but I have no interest in working with a company that uses such tactics to score sales.
This site is a sham. I signed up and started getting telemarketing calls daily. Whe
N I tried to unsubscribe multiple times, myself and all my friends started getting virus emails. I am disgusted thatt this firm would take advantage of the economy and abuse information. I have yet to find a way to unsubsribe. RUN from this site and its affiliates.
Don't sign up for this service! They are nothing but criminals. I've filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau. They charged me for 9 months of "back service" despite the fact that they claim to charge monthly. I thought the account had been cancelled months ago and then a $270 charge shows up! When I called to complain I was hung up on and basically called a liar. Nasty, rude people and they haven't done anything to help my husband find a position. No calls, no emails other than in the initial 3-month trial period. No wonder he thought his subscription was cancelled. Their CSRMs blamed the "billing issue" on Discover and said it wasn't theipr problem. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!
Do NOT do business with this company or many other like-minded companies. They take your money with promises of finding you a job. They DO NOT DELIVER. These companies take advantage of you and your desperation and money. $99? For what?
Has it occurred to people that if the call across state lines (telephone) to push their fraudulent product that they have committed a federal crime? I wouldn't turn to a lawyer (they cost) I would turn to the FBI fraud prevention program
Tip for consumers:
Scam that is committing a federal offence. If they call and solicit across state lines for a fraudulent product they are guilt of a felony (wire fraud)
I also had a horrible experience. I haven't been able to log in to the site for months and when I emailed the company to cancel I was told that I had to do it through the website. However, I can't even get to the website any longer. Finally I talked to someone today and they canceled it for me once I pushed. I was lured in with the 30-day trial and ended up wasting $34.99 for months and months. This site did not deliver and I recommend others to stay away.
They have locked me in and won't let me out. I have had no success with Climber. The resume evaluation was no different from the others that I received and was subjective at best. I requested a cancellation of the service and they continue to charge me. Their phone system will NOT allow you tohave access to anyone.
I am very disapointed in the service and the evaluation of my resume.
SCAM!
I'm a job a seeker and found this site. The company rep contacted me and suggested that I opt for a 4 month package as it was a better deal. It sounded good so I opted for the four month package, after all there's a money back guarantee. I was told the upload my resume and I would be contacted. Within 20 minutes of uploading my resume another rep called me and basically told me my resume sucked, but they could fix it for $1,100.00. I told the rep that was too expensive. The rep told me she would see what she could do, and the conversation ended. Five minutes later the same person called me back and said she could lower the price to $699.00. I declined, and the same day emailed and filled out the online form (read the fine print) to cancel the service. Today I was notified that the plan I was in (the same plan I steered in by the customer service rep) is not eligible for the money back guarantee, I can only use the service now or suspend it and use it later
I am a current job seeker living in Philadelphia, Pa. They called me out of no where and told me about their recruiting service and that it only cost $40 a month and I can get my money back if I'm not satisfied. I agreed gave them my card number and when I looked up their company I saw literally hundreds of terrible reviews about them and people getting ripped off just like me. When I called to tell them to stop payment literally within 5 minutes an employee named Alvin was extremely ruse to me and gave me a phone number that went directly to a voicemail. When I informed him I would file a complaint with the BBB his response was "What's that gonna do " over and over again. Then the girl Jessica called me back said it was canceled and called me a loser. Wow they called me. I never wanted to be called and they prey on people who are desperate for jobs like me.
I received a call from Ean today. He tried to pressure me into subscribing to Climber's service. I explained to him that I was waiting for feedback from two companies I recently interviewed with, and that I would not subscribe to Climber's service until I received responses from both companies I had already interviewed with. He ignored my response and pressed harder and harder. After I told him no for the third time, he said "Well F___ you then!" and hung up the phone. He was very unprofessional and appeared to be no more than a fast-talking scammer. Stay away from this company!
I found climber.com to be useless. They never called me back to help set up my account as they promise to do despite my having left multiple messages for the rep I was assigned to. I saw no positive results from creating an account/profile and it did not assist me in finding gainful employment in the slightest bit. I canceled before the 30 day "trial" was over and I was still charged. I called once I got my bill and they told me that since I only canceled my account but did not formally request a refund before the 30 days elapsed, they would not reverse the charges or credit me back. This company is scamming me out of my $35 and the customer service people are rude and useless. I was in conversations with someone via email who knew I was under my 30 days and when I requested to have my account canceled he told me how and still didnt feel the need to tell me that I chad to call and request a refund. Useless and rude. Use a different company.
Do NOT interact with climber.com in any way!
They will spam the hell out of you with tons of emails until you sign up...
Then you will NEVER hear from them again.
After trying to cancel the "free" membership they had charged me $80 for, I ended up needing to cancel my card to prevent them from doing more damage.
Do NOT even exchange an email with them = VERY DANGEROUS
I received a call from one of the reps and I promised a call back. So, I called back there was a hard push to get to me on the books and a trial. And when I said, "Let me weigh in my options" The guy got pushy and kept asking questions in a very rude manner and said to me: "You are no potential client, stop wasting my time" and click. Head up, DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM! This guy was very desperate for money. Mark@ Climber, be careful with your co workers or employees over there.
*Please I'm begging you RUN & DONT WALK, when it comes to doing business with this site. They came off as authentic, company to do your resume/cover letter and get you in the door with prominent Recruiters in your area to assist you with employment. Its been 6months + No resume+NO cover letter=Loser on my part to the tune of $800+
