The ridiculous pricing is a scam, I started a free trial that was supposed to renew at $2 and instead have been paying $23 every month!

Nice builder but picked a free resume template, got trapped into paying money and had to do it because I HAVE VERY LITTLE TIME TO WASTE. Should've been up front costs.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us, and our apologies for any confusion however, in fact we state everything up-front in order for our users to be aware of the products and services that we offer.

To clarify, we offer two types of accounts, the first one being a basic access account that gives you the chance to try out our builder before deciding to purchase our premium features; this account allows you to download a plain text version which you can copy-paste the text on to our free resume templates located here:

https://livecareer.com/resume/templates

We also provide a full access account for a small fee that grants you 14-days to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the free account.

In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our 14-day trial if you are not satisfied with our services.

Also, when you sign up for our 14-day trial, you’re automatically enrolled in our monthly subscription service, which we let you know at this stage that you may cancel at any time. Also, when we request your credit card information, we clearly explain that unless you self-cancel or request a cancellation before the end of your trial, you authorize us to charge your credit card every four weeks at the regular price of the subscription.

As for the refund policy, we do not process any refunds on recurring charges, as stated on our Terms and Conditions page. Our policy is as follows; we offer a 100% money-back guarantee if you are not satisfied with the end result during the first 14-days once those days are up, we do not process any refunds.

For more information, please refer to our Terms and Conditions page: https://www.livecareer.com/terms-of-use.

We hope that this information helps clear things up; that being said, you can always contact our designated Customer Service Team, that can help you with anything related to your account or the services that we offer.
