“Problem fixed”

Curt B.

Everyone was helpful and informative even though it did take a day they did get my situation taken care of and I appreciate that. Hopefully I won't have to use them again but if I do I'll be comfortable in that. Thank you for your service.

“Wrong schematics”

Michael S.
9/2/24

Trying to find a wiring diagram for my 2021 Ford Ranger. Was sent nice colored schematics, which turned out to be incorrect. In all fairness, the Ford dealership didn't have the right schematics either. Nothing seem to match the vehicle. We identified the proper wire by using the pin that it was attached to rather than the color of the wires, which were not correct by either person.

I asked a question for $0.99, then a bot (chatbot machine) started a cycle of nonsense responses and questions that were repeated again and again, those cycles made you click on links and generated new unauthorized charges. In 5 minutes, they made a charge of 64 dollars, without even asking! I did not get the answer to my question. They send you emails, if you click on reply, they will charge you... I contacted my bank immediately to start a dispute and to cancel my credit card. Afterward, I received daily emails with a simple answer that you can find on google, It did not seem to come from an expert. THE ONLY THING I WANT now IS DO NOT CHARGE THE 64 dollar, I assume that the 0.99 dollar was because I was stupid to trust this webpage that many innocent people trust the first time. Why do they need to generate an extra charge that was unauthorized... if this is not a SCAM, then what scam is it?

Tip for consumers:
Do not give your credit card number to these people, if you did call your bank immediately, otherwise, they would start to charge unauthorized fees...

I am writing this review to raise awareness and warn fellow consumers about an online scam website that I unfortunately encountered. It is crucial to share my experience to prevent others from falling victim to this fraudulent platform.

I came across the website JustAnswer (diverted by google search) while searching for Kohler's part number. At first glance, it appeared to be a legitimate and trustworthy site, but as I proceeded with my transaction, it became evident that it was an elaborate scam. Here are the key issues I encountered: ---False Advertising: The website used misleading and exaggerated claims to lure customers into making purchases: only $1 membership refundable but start charging $30 per month, they don't provide customer service on their website, never received any an email confirmation or any detail about membership. Despite reaching out (sales team,# to join the membership) to request a refund or resolution, I received no assistance or cooperation from the them instead arguing.
Any legit company will refund the charges as i newer used their service.
Remember, it is crucial to report any fraudulent activities or scams
Stay vigilant and protect yourselves from online scams. Together, we can make a difference.

Stay clear from asking them anything or you're more than likely going to regret it!

Yet another disgusting money grubbing corporation who manipulates users by giving a short 'trial' and then slips into the tiny terms that you've signed up for a ridiculously over-priced £35pcm - They are so vacuous they don't even know the exchange rate between pounds and dollars - so they charge the same to everyone and just flip the currency symbol. They also can't be bothered to know where their customers are coming from as they told me I was being charged $35pcm when I contacted them for a refund after I'd realised I'd been enrolled in this pointless trivial response should-be-illegal 'company'.

I mean the worst part of all of this is they don't even provide decent people to answers your questions, I mean it's pretty bad when a site called 'justanswer' can't even do what's in the name very well!

They are also falsely advertising their reviews on their website as all 5 stars. This makes me question if any of their positive reviews are legitimate or if they've paid for them. I've attached images to show this lie.

I guess that's why they have to trick people into subscriptions!

Tip for consumers:
Just stay clear if at all possible. If you are beyond desperate, cancel membership immediately after question is answered - make sure if there is no answer after 2.5 days to just cancel anyway as otherwise they'll get you on the full charge. Be sure to check your account a month after the first charge to make sure they didn't charge you anyway as well!

Hello Farheen,

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback.

We're very sorry for any inconvenience. It sounds like you were surprised in regard to the monthly membership payment. We apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding. When you visited our site and began the process of posting your question, you were met with several messages from us explaining how you are signing up for a Membership, starting from when you post your first question. If the trial period was not canceled within that 7-day window, your account would transition into a full membership, where we would collect a monthly payment from you each month until you decide to cancel the service. This was all readily displayed for you when you were submitting your billing information before your first question was posted.

We also send several membership-related emails that mention your next billing date, including a Subscription Reminder email to announce that your trial period is coming to an end and that your first membership payment is coming up. The Subscription Reminder email includes a cancellation link. Additionally, you would have seen a page similar to this when you signed in to ask your first question: https://i.imgur.com/lHVoH84.png

If you need any assistance with your account, please reach directly out to our Customer Care team from the contact Us page at https://www.justanswer.com/help/contact-us.

We look forward to hearing back from you and resolving any open concerns.

Best,
JustAnswer Customer Care Team
