You do not make clear that you will hold the resume hostage unless we pay for it.

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

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!

There needs to be an option to purchase per resume instead of monthly access, that is overkill

Hello,

We regret to see your rating towards us, we would like to clarify, that 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. Also, when you sign up to our services, you can always cancel anytime.

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.

Hi Eliza,

I’m very sorry about the experience that you have had with our service. Our subscriptions are 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.

Once the subscription has been cancelled, you will no longer be billed any further. 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
