Our website offers a Basic Access account completely free which allows you to download a plain text version of your resume, Steve.
However, upon finishing the document, we also give the option of continuing with our premium features if users are satisfied with the end result. This gives you the ability to print, email or download your resume and cover letters using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the Basic Access account. In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!
You say it's free then at the end after I spend 2 hours making a resume, charge me 2.80? And I have to go back and remember to cancel...
Annoying!

Your company advertised to be "free" but now after we're finished wanted money to access this information.

Thank you for taking some time to review us, Kimberly! We love to hear from our customers as it provides us with valuable feedback that helps us serve customers like you better.
Why not just let me purchase this resume rather than charging for a moth of access for me to build the one i need.

We’d like to clarify that our basic access accounts allow you to create and download a plain text version using our examples and tips.
However, if you would like to download, print or email a professionally formatted version of your new document using our copyrighted templates in a PDF or Word format you’ll need to subscribe first for a small fee which we offer a 14-day trial option.
In addition, we do grant a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee if you are not satisfied with the end result!
The resume help I received was outstanding! I would recommend this to anyone!
Needed help updating and making my resume look better.

Couldn't add a custom job title to my cover letter. Didn't make it known that it would cost money until everything was done. Very deceitful
It looked okay.
Looked acceptable

This website has been extremely helpful. I'm making a resume for the first time and Hloom helped guide me through the steps.
I chose Hloom because I needed assistance and formatting for my resume, and this website had very positive reviews.
I am applying for a couple job interviews and internships.
Date of experience: September 4, 2020
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for giving us a great rating.
Hloom is just too expensive. Just use it sometimes when need to send and update my resume. Costs $24.80 each time.
I already have my resume there. Wish it could be exported to a Google Docs or similar. I don't own any Microsoft License for word, so not very useful. Can you please make it available as a Google docs or similar free service that also keeps the correct formatting?

This was a trick. It said this would be free, but then you couldn't get your resume without being charged.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Ann however we do not trick our users!

Does not say anything about having to pay until you finish your resume and go to save it. Though it is only 2.80 this was very anoying.

Hello
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!
I liked the old website better where you could download a template. I like this too but it's more than what I need.
I like the ready made layouts.

Thank you, Edward, we’re always open to new suggestions on ways we can improve and your feedback helps us do just that!
Really cheeky to find a "free resume builder" posted on Reddit only to be billed after 2 hours of filling in my resume.
