Site on Google stated free resume. Then after you go through it all, expecting to just print, you have to pay. Misleading!

Our website offers a basic access account completely free which allows you to download a plain text version, Angie.

However, upon finishing the document, we also give the option of continuing with our premium features if you are satisfied with the end result. This gives you the ability to print, email or download your documents 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 if you are not completely satisfied!

Your charge for a resume that advertise as free on the website then charge a fee afterwards. This is awful business practice

I was unimpressed- I searched free resumes. This is for my 16 year old, so once done I just paid. I sure hope there is no auto bill after 14 days.
