You should make it apparent that you will have to pay in order to get your resume BEFORE people start working on it. Very deceptive.

To clarify, Jorden, 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.

Nieuczciwe podejście do klienta! Reklamowana jako darmowa aplikacja, okazuje się płatną, po 14 dniach za 14,99zl, koszt wrasta do 99zl za miesiąc! Nierzetelna informacja konsumencka. Niezwłocznie proszę zwrot niesłusznie pobranych pieniędzy z mojej karty kredytowej. W przeciwnym razie zgłaszam sprawę o wyłudzenie!

Cześć,

Przepraszamy za wszelkie zamieszanie i niedogodności. Warto zauważyć, że nasze usługi oferują darmowy dostęp do pobrania wersji tekstu prostego. Jednak pewne funkcje premium wymagają subskrypcji. Chcielibyśmy skorzystać z tej okazji, aby wyjaśnić wszelkie wątpliwości.

Nie oferujemy opcji jednorazowej płatności. Nasza 14-dniowa wersja próbna automatycznie odnawia się na dostęp miesięczny, dopóki nie zdecydujesz, że spełnia Twoje oczekiwania i nie zdecydujesz się anulować subskrypcji. Aby uniknąć jakichkolwiek nieporozumień, ta informacja jest udostępniana przed, w trakcie i po zakupie subskrypcji. Udostępniamy również tę informację w mailu powitalnym wysłanym podczas zakupu.

Chcielibyśmy pomóc Ci w zgłoszeniu zwrotu. Proszę sprawdzić wiadomość od nas, w której poprosimy o informacje dotyczące Twojego konta. Jesteśmy zdecydowanie zaangażowani w zmianę Twojego zdania o nas i zapewnienie, że otrzymasz doskonałą obsługę klienta, na którą z dumą liczymy.

Dziękujemy za poświęcony czas!

Hi Vishwa P.,

I’m very sorry that you have had this experience with our service. We explain that the subscription is auto-renewing. We state this on every page in the purchase process and we send a payment confirmation email stating the date and amount of the auto- renewal. We do offer several ways to cancel including by phone, live chat, email and self-cancellation in your Account Settings.

Please contact me directly with the email address you used to create your account or the last 4 digits of the card that was billed and card holder’s name so that we can resolve this issue quickly for you. Please email me at anna.b@livecareer-support.com.

Best Regards,

Anna

We’d like to clarify that our Basic Access accounts allow you to create and download a plain text version of your resume and cover letter using our examples and tips, Tyler.

However, if you would like to download, print or email a professionally formatted version of your resume using our copyrighted templates in a PDF or Word format you will need to subscribe first for a small fee which we offer a 14-day trial option. In addition, we do grant a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee.

This company is horrible. They portray to appreciate the business of customers but have horrible customer service and are a very shady business. If you type in Google Free resume builder LIVE CARE ER will pop up and you can just start creating a resume for free. NO WHERE ON THE PAGE WILL IT SAY U WILL HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING UNTIL YOU ARE FINISHED AND READY TO PRINT THEN THEY ASK YOU FOR MONEY. You pay 1.95 for a trial period and they take money out of your account soon after (39.80) without any type of warning and will claim to you they sent you an email notifying you of the charge. These people are liars. I called to cancel my subscription only to be harassed by the customer service associate asking me not to cancel. Asking if I would mind paying 12 or 3 dollars a month for something I don't use. Multiple times I asked CHARLES to cancel my account but no he insisted on trying to get me to keep using their service. After he finally stopped he then gets an attitude and becomes very aggressive. I just want my money back for a service that I am not using and wasn't aware of being charged to my card. I've been told that a request for a refund has been sent out but I see alot of reviewers claiming they weren't approved. I WILL BE REPORTING LIVE CAREER to the Better Business Bureau. This needs to be shut down. They take your money and don't give it back!
Please stay away from these guys they do not have good intentions and they aren't here to help you. Just steal from you.

We are sorry that you feel this way Jazmin. We are very committed in providing our customer with a great customer care and once again we apologize for any inconvenience that you experience while using the service. Our free account gives you the opportunity to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchase. The ability to print, email, or download your resume and cover letters are features included in our paid subscription and not listed as a feature of the free account. You can download a plain text version of your resume for free. To be able to use all premium futures of the service we offer customer a 14 days access for $1.95 USD and we provide the information that it will auto renew after the 14 days and that it can be canceled at any time. The auto renewal is listed with the features of the 14 day subscription on the sales page, as well as on the payment and confirmation pages. We also send a payment confirmation email stating the date and amount of the auto- renewal.

We take all feedback very seriously. It will be forwarded to our Marketing team. Please contact us directly if you have any further issues. You can email us at customerservice@livecareer.com with any concerns you may have regarding your account. We also send you a private message so we can assist you directly.

Hello, Elizabeth

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, we'd love to take this chance to explain some misinformation about our services. 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 Term and Conditions page

In addition, 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 the 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.

That being said, we hope that this helps clear out any confusion and if you have any other questions or concerns just simply contact our Customer Service Team for immediate assistance using the link provided below.
