“Raphael”

Jill S.
8/25/24

My experience was excellent! Raphael was very patient with me and he gave me great customer service. I'm in customer service so I truly appreciate when I get good service. Yes, I would hire Raphael for a customer service job because he's good. Thank you great company you have!

“Beware after 14 day trial, it gets expensive for a "free" resume template”

Dewayne R.
9/23/24

I searched for resume templates and this site advertised as free. Once information is entered, it requires a credit card for a $2.25 charge. What wasn't obvious (later found on the proof of purchase email in the small print) was the "automatic" $23.95 per month charge that comes from the previously entered card. Unfortunately for me (fortunately for this company) I saw this on my card statement three months later.

I used this tool to create my high school students first resume. I love that it formats beautifully and even provides suggestions. I didn't give it 5 stars because it can also be a bit restrictive (if you don't plan to maintain this service indefinitely, formatting the final product on your own can be a nightmare). But I get it... this is how they make their money.
Overall... I say it's a great service and I would recommend it!

Paid about $3 for my first resume and cover letter. But 14 days later when I had completely forgotten about the website and was well on my way with my resume and job interviews I noticed that $35-$40 from my account was missing. Who would ever want to pay year round to keep a resume making account open. It's obvious that they knew no one would willingly pay so they just take an automatic payment when people have forgotten about it.

I had some confusion on my account and I called and spoke with a rep, he was professional, helpful, and most important kind. Not only do they create a good product, they stand behind their service model. I would highly recommend them if you need to build or update a resume in addition to job search options.

The service rep I spoke with is an exceptional employee.

The site is very user friendly and I was able to draw up several versions of my resume in a short amount of time, no problem. I stopped short of using the cover letter templates, however, because I felt that they left something to be desired; they were altogether too pushy and arrogant-sounding, or just plain laughable. In any case, customer service was very knowledgeable and helpful, and I would use MyPerfectResume again in the future and recommend it to friends and co-workers.

I am beyond disappointed with this "service." I paid $2.99 SEVERAL months ago for a template that didn't even end up working out for me, and just now realized i've been charged the last 8+ months for it! I am a Graduate School student who is having a difficult time making ends meet as it is. I contacted MyPerfectResume months ago trying to cancel this and they ensured me that I would no longer be charged. Come to find out, i've been charged $25/month for the last who knows how long. It is beyond disappointing that this company is choosing to profit off students who may not pay as close attention to their funds as they should. It's clear to me that regardless - you'll still get charged either way. STAY. AWAY.

Tip for consumers:
DO NOT USE THIS SITE! You'd be better off using a COMPLETELY free Microsoft template. BEWARE of THEFT before you enter ANY credit card information!

First of all, NO WHERE does it tell you that you will be billed within the first 7 days of your FREE TRIAL. I had to pay my $3.95 to get my resume and have been trying for 17 days to get in contact with someone about cancelling my auto-bill pay. 1. Their Live Chat support is ALWAYS off-line. 2. Under "contact us" the only thing they allow you to do is send an email, or I should say attempt to send an email because after you compose the entire email and hit submit, the server fails! But funny because I get on here to look at their reviews and 48 seconds ago a customer service agent responded to a review... huh?! How does that happen?

Tip for consumers:
JUST DONT USE THIS WEBSITE!

As other reviewers state, the service as advertised as free. Upon completion of resume, you will be charged 4$ to use the resume in any format outside of the website. This is not a one time charge, and will roll into a monthly subscription that costs 24.95. The cancellation process is 4 pages along, and involves scrolling to click the button to get to the next page. It will appear as though you have cancelled your account, but have not yet completed the cancellation until approximately 4 pages later. This is clearly a service one does not need to log into once completed, and I was fine paying the original 4 dollar fee to create a nice looking resume. However, the difficulty in originally cancelling my subscription and the lack of effort from their customer service makes me feel as though the practices used are intentionally deceptive.

The 25.00 is not a one time charge. It's a subscription. You will be charged that 25.00 again until you call them and cancel it. I tried to deactivate my account after printing my resume. I thought I had until I checked my bank account and saw the 25.00 additional charge again a month later. I did not get my money back either. The call center I called had really loud background noise and I could barely hear or understand the representative. After telling them I was upset about the charge they tried to sell me a different thing. Which annoyed me even further. I regret ever using their service period.

I really enjoyed using this software but I do not like how initially it advertises as free and then surprises you with the only option of purchasing. Not pricey though, that's why I gave it four stars.

I was under the impression, that because i paid a small fee of maybe $3 or something i cant remember, i would not have to pay anymore. I am a uni student who is struggling to get by and when $34 taken out your account with permission or knowledge its truly disheartening and i demand a refund right away because i will not hesitate to take this matter further.

You can download a plain text version of your resume for free. For the benefit of our users, we provide the option of a 14-day trial for a small fee. When you select our 14-day trial enrollment, it provides all the details on screen which state that after the 14th day, it will auto enroll into the monthly subscription service. It also explains that you can cancel at any given time. This alert is also given when the credit card information is requested where it explains that unless you cancel, you automatically authorize us to charge your account every four weeks at the current rate of the subscription. Lastly, when you finish your enrollment process, an e-mail is sent explaining this as well. Auto e-mails can get picked up by the filter as spam or junk mail, redirecting this to the junk/spam folder. Please be sure to check these folders just in case.

Hi this seems to be a good resume builder site. Although, the fact that you are charging every month does not make any sense. We only need it once. Please send me a reminder at the end of the month. I can't afford to be charge for it in October. Thank you.

Gentry provided great customer service. However, this website is NOT worth 24.99 a month. When I first signed up I assumed the $1.99 I was paying was to download and save my resume, okay thats cool. Then I check my bank account one day and see $24.99 taken out from this company. Had I known that was going to happen, I never would have signed up.

Thank you, I was not looking to pay for doing a resume online, but since I have spent an hour or more getting my info together I should be paid for this. Next time let a person know there is a fee involved before hand, or maybe we should dig deeper before we leap. No Problem/no worries. Just $2.95. I have set a reminder to cancel.

I needed to make a payment to use my suspended account. When I called, I wanted to only pay the $2.95 offer for the 14 day trial. The Sales Rep informed me that he was going to speak to his manager and get me the 14 day trial at $2.95 and an indefinite 50% off discount on a subscription after the 14 days is up. So, if I decided to keep my subscription, my monthly payments would only be about $12 instead of the regular $35 monthly payment. And I could cancel at anytime. Overall great experience.

I would give 0 stars if I could. I was scammed out of $23. Don't use this site. I applied for a trial. I felt fine spending the $2.83 to use the service. Suddenly I was locked into a year long membership where I'm play $23 a month? Tried to cancel twice via the website, but you have to call to cancel? You're going to be routinely charged if you use this service. When I called they would only give me an $11 refund despite not having used their services more than the one time. Utter bull$#*!.

STAY AWAY
It says its free, but when you do all the work on the resume and what to print then it asks you to pay a little fee of $2. But once you enter your account number they will start charging your card around $34 monthly. They refused to refund, wasted my time over the phone and said i had agreed to a subscription which i had not at any point! Its a scam

We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused you. We want to clarify how our membership works. All of our subscriptions are auto-renewing unless you choose to cancel your subscription beforehand.

If there was no cancellation request sent before the end of the initial period, your account might have rolled into a monthly subscription at the regular price. The auto-renewal information is listed in multiple areas: the sales page, the payment information page, the payment confirmation page, and finally, on your welcoming email, which confirms your 14-day trial purchase and a detailed overview of your new subscription.

We hope that this helps clear out any confusion. To verify the status of your account and what might have happened, contact our Customer Service Team for immediate assistance using the link provided below.
