“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.

Andres badge number 735. Was very empathetic to me on my job search journey. Forgetting that I signed up for the program. I asked for a refund and to cancel. After talking to Andres. He educated me on all the useful tools that the program had to offer. He was very polite and encouraging. Thanks Andres for all the help! I appreciate it!

Seriously. $25/month for something I need once every 2-3 years. It's bull$#*! that you don't disclose that BEFORE I'm forced to spend all that time building a resume. I would pay $10 or $15 for a two week pass, but I don't need a subscription.

Using Resume-Now was extremely easy. I landed the job I applied for. Andrew was very polite and offered several packages to continue service. Cancellation was quick and easy as well. If I need a resume again in the future I will be using this site.

I used My Perfect Resume and although the service was "perfect", I had no need for the services anymore. I called to cancel, and it was so pleasant and easy to do. I guess reputable companies that deliver on what they sell, will be reputable to the very end. Thanks so much!

It would be nice to have payment options up front instead of at the end, after all the work has been put in. This is an extremely useful tool, and professionals would be more than willing to pay to use it. The cost doesn't need to be hidden at the very end.

Hi Amanda,

We really appreciate your feedback! The basic text version of any resume created can be downloaded free of charge and both our site and our templates are free to use. However, our premium services do incur a cost.

Your free app charges for the document and for a cover letter I do not need and then advises you after the order " it is a recurring charge"! As they say if it is too good to be true is usually is, not happy.

Thank you, Bill, 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.

11 months ago I helped my brother with his resume. His English is poor so I decided I will make it and pay for it with my card since it was only $3. About 3 weeks ago I realised that they had been charging me membership for the last 11 months. I am absolutely disgusted that I ended up paying over $500 for a resume. The company won't refund the full amount so I decided to take my case Queensland Fair Trading and subsequently to small case court.
I wouldn't trust them if I were you!

Laura T. – MyPerfectResume Rep

Hi Ioana,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

We're sorry that you feel this way about our membership options. The following serves as a guide which may clarify any doubts you may have regarding your account: Keep in mind that MyPerfectResume is a resume builder that gives the user a chance to try our service prior to commit to a full access subscription. Once you finish editing your resume, the service allows you to download the free text version of the resume or save it in your account for further review. The options for emailing, downloading and printing the resume in Word format are part of the full access subscription. To further our user experience, we provide the option of a 14-day trial for a small fee. When you select our 14-day trial enrollment, it provides all details on screen 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.

We apologize for any confusion this may have risen.

I have a lengthy career and several jobs with close to the same job description. Would like to be able to consolidate. Also for the position I am applying for, I have actual experience in, but it was 20 years ago. Would like to highlight it somehow. I was advised not to leave blanks in employment, but several jobs were not for a public school or various locations doing similar things. I changed jobs several times, but often out of ambition or higher pay. One location I was at for several years and even came back to. I quit one time because I had babies, but came back to work 4 years later. The center closed down and I went to work somewhere else but it was not a good fit. I found I did not like 3 star corporate daycares and my daughter was not getting potty trained. I feel like there must be some way to pare down my lengthy resume. I have worked fairly steady for more than 5 years, but I quit recently to homeschool my children with disabilities.

I love everything about the process. It's very easy to use. My only issues was I found this website by seraching google for free resume templates. I didn't find out that you have to pay until after I finished my resume. I only got the 14-day access. If everything goes great, I will be coming back to get the monthly subscription.

Very good overall. The site worked well and my resume was wonderful. I had a slight issue with continued billing beyond my subscription, but the Customer Service Representative was polite, well spoken and extremely helpful. He helped me cancel my subscription and refunded the over billing with no fuss. All in all it was a very positive experience.

Annoying that in the google search the claim it is is free yet had to pay 2.95 to get the resume I was able to complete. So thanks for that because now i have to remember to cancel this subscription because i didn't want to re create something i had already finished. Great approach to getting customers though.

First of all I paid 24.95 and I wasn't meaning too. When I wanted to cancel it forced me to call over the phone. The guy Lenny B. Absolutely refused to let me just cancel the service. He pushed all types of prices at me till I agreed to keep the service for 4.95 a month and now you know don't pay more than 4.95 guys. This place only cares about your money! It's hard to get out of like a cult!

I used the trial feature to brush up my resume skills and forgot to cancel before my full membership began due to an auto accident. I called and the gentleman was easy to understand, caring and helpful. Plus, the website itself was easy to use, will be back if I ever need another refresher or full blown resume.

Further to the review I posted below, Myperfectcv has since contacted me and reimbursed me of the £23.80 charged to my account. Whilst I wish this whole episode had not taken place they were quick respond to my complaint, for which I am grateful.

My son needed a cv in a hurry. He logged on and registered onto this 'free' site. He had problems with the formatting, extra lines he could not get rid of and the clock was ticking away. When it requested a fee of £1.95 we paid, believing it was now pay on demand and effectively he was held hostage and becoming desperate for the document. On download we realised the formatting errors were present in the document and had to keep jumping in and tweaking and downloading to align the data in the columns. We made do. I have since gone in and made adjustments, jumping in and out of the template and downloading to see the end result. I have been charged £23.80! Not acceptable at all!

I never signed up for a subscription. I hate and avoid automatic payments at all costs. In Nov they billed my account for, 45 cents 4 times... Phishing to see if they could get money. Then from Jan 2022 till we caught it they have been billing $23.95 every month this year. Now Oct 2022. I am having my bank look into charging them back and fraud charges. I will also contact the FTC and show them the many people in the same boat being scammed. Can you say class action Law Suit?

Tip for consumers:
Stay Away!

Products used:
I'm about to find out about their refund policy, From what I read it's non existent. Scammers!

I did like the way the resume looks when completed and the suggestions. I did not like how you get charged for the template. Didn't remember to cacel within a week and had a close to $40.00 charge out of my account. Today, every penny counts and felt totally taken advantage of in this brutal economy. Perhaps you could truly be "free" and suggest a donation after one finds a job. And, no, I haven't got a job yet and your free fee has set me back!

Hi Brent H.,

Thanks for providing me the email address you used to create the account.

I have refunded the full amount of $35.80. Please note that it may take 2-3 business days, depending on your bank, before you see this refund on your statement. I’ve sent an email confirmation for your records.

We are very committed to providing great customer service and again are very sorry that you had this experience. We take all feedback very seriously and hope that you will reconsider your star rating and negative review of our site and service. Please contact me again directly if you have any further issues.

Best regards,

Scam! They claim that when you sign up for the 14 day trial@ 2.95 you are given the option to cancel. However, the only option you have at that point is the 2.95 option or the full service of 38.95. So after my 14 days were up they billed me again. Great way of doing business!
