This builder was marketed as being free. I spent 3 hours building a resume, only to be forced into paying $25 to download said "free" resume.

To clarify, we are in fact free, Brianna.

For the benefit of our users, we offer a Basic Access account that gives you the chance to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchase our premium features, this account allows you may download a plain text version of your resume completely free.

We also provide a Full Access account for a small fee that offers a 14-day trial period. 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.

It was helpful but when I was searching for a free guide I found your website. After I had created the letter I couldn't print it unless I paid and all along I thought the service was free.
