Thank you for the feedback, David.

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 completely free. 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.

I have used this website once in july after paying the 1.95 fee to be able to edit my CV. After which without any email saying that I was in a subscription. They have been stealing money from me for 7 months. I noticed today that in my bank aco$#*! money has been withdrawn from me from this company for the last 7 months of 22.95 and I have never had one email telling me that I was still on this subscription. I contacted customer service and told them about this. To which they ended the chat without answering my question and blocked me from using the live chat service. This is atrocious and makes this one of the worst companies I have ever come across. I have been scammed and now I cannot even contact the company as I can no longer use their chat service. Here is the chat:

Hector Carranza Amezquita
Any other question?
Me
I dont know I feel like I have just been scammed. I was led into this by paying the 1.95 to be able to see my cv and then without even sending me an email about these payments you have been taking money out of my account for the last 4 months. This has accounted to around 80 pounds that has been wasted and I was not even sent an email telling me that I was part of this subscription
Me
I would like to report this
