“They will initially charge you 2 euros to get make a cv. When you pay those 2 euros however, they automatically make you a subscriber, charging you 25 euros a month without your knowledge. DO NOT USE THEIR SITE. If you don't pay them they will charge you even more.”
“Niște țepari care pretind inițial 9.99 lei pentru 7 zile de utilizare, dar cu litere mici ascunse în pagini secundare, vă vor debita cardul cu 100 lei lunar, blocând posibilitatea de a vă dezabona. Iar cardul vă va fi debitat lunar.
Deci, nu încercați serviciile lor. E mult mai simplu să utilizați un Word și să vă redactați CV-ul. Și e gratis”
“Fraudulent website, you pay for a separate CV and they take your card details to debit membership, telephone contact for financial issues does not exist, everything is via email and the emails are vague, no one is concerned about serving you in a humane and decent customer service, a complete fraud disaster.”
“Its a scam 💯 they didn’t notice you about the the purchase direct will debited in your account. First they you will purchace for the Cv you had made. Hope the people behind this site will go to hell..”
“Be aware it’s a scam !!!!!
My son used this site for his CV and paid USD 1.95 but still they automatically deducted $24.95 after 7 days. They said it's the policy of the company to charge after 7 days and he definitely did not subscribe, My son used it once and paid for it, he also contact them but they said no refunds...You do this to scam customers and mislead them, shame on you!!!!
Worst experience ever. please be careful and be aware from this site!! Scammers!!!”
“This website is a scam. I only used their services to make one CV and I did pay for that CV right away. They still charged me for a 3-month subscription which I never asked for. They charged me for £44.85. Stay away from this platform.”
“High level and polished / devious scammers beware. I signed up for a CV for myself as applied for a charity job in February 2023. All fine got a template paid a few pounds, filled it in myself and sent it off to a company. Did all the work myself after all was just getting a blank template. On sign up and welcome email you have absolutely no idea you are rolling into a £18.95 a month subscription service which they say is for storing your CV and allowing you to edit it - joke - So it's one of those unless you explicitly ask to cancel (but why would you when you haven't agreed to a subscription) you will get charged. Sadly as we are a busy family with a kid and loads of transactions we just didn't pick up on it till a few months down the line plus it was via a card and not seen it as it wasn't a standard direct debit we just didn't see it. I wrote to them and said I was cancelling it - didn't trust them so called my bank and stopped card, even changed my card as said they were a scam. Dialoging with them verbally is impossible - whether in UK or Holland they never ever ever answer the phone - and online they robotically just say you should have read the terms and conditions - I am calling them scammers because on the sign up page and on their first email welcome you don't know absolutely at all you've signed up for a rolling subscription - they don't want to give even a £1 back now- I looked at their Uk - London address and it is just a box - so they can be operating from anywhere in the world - In fact when I emailed them saying I will take them to court for the £170 they owe me they say and I quote from an email "we will ignore any further messages from you" there seems to be unfortunately a huge amount of people cheated in the same way looking at various review sites about them and I will now make it my mission to notify all appropriate business support companies as possible like DTI and office of fair trading, also will be emailing as many educational establishments as possible and recruitment companies warning about this company - they act very arrogantly and just trot out their "you can't touch us because of our terms and conditions" so I am doing my level best to bring them back to earth a bit and have enough time on my hands to do just that.”
“I wish everybody could read these reviews before making a CV on the site. I genuinely didn’t think i will ever get scammed by making a CV.
I bought two CVs for 0.99c which was an amazing price initially. After a few days they charged me 24.99€. I immediately looked into it and wrote them an e-mail about what was this purchase for? It’s an insane amount of money for 2 CVs imo. Meanwhile i checked their site- and there it was. Somewhere sneakily hidden that as you use and pay- their site automatically charges you for a monthly subscription. Okay I cancelled it. They wrote me back in 2 hours, “your subscription has been cancelled”.
I was like okay, it was my fault for not checking this I cannot argue with them about that since they don’t even do refunds, but at least I have a confirmation that it has been cancelled . I let it go, since I cancelled it, it was over right?
No. This morning they charged me again for 24.99€. AFTER I CANCELLED. and. It has been five days. 5. Five fkn days not even a month! And I shouldn’t even be mentioning this since i CANCELLED the subscription. I immediately wrote them an e-mail and sent them a screenshot about wth is this? Suddenly they are acting deaf. Total radiosilence, but they were quick to write me an e-mail before, acting all high and mighty.
Now i have to completely change my card lol. They will probably try to charge me like Netflix or other monthly subscriptions I have. Fk this site im literally looking for a job and in this economy and my country 50€ is a huge amount of money. I feel horrible but what can I do now? I wish nothing but the same on scammers like this.”
“At first glance, CVmaker.com promises an intuitive interface for CV crafting, and in that regard, it delivers. However, there's a snag that users should be acutely aware of: the silent auto-renewals.
Though their renewal policy is technically available in the Terms & Conditions, it's easy to miss, especially with the absence of an advance renewal alert, which is a common courtesy in most subscription models.
I reached out, hoping for understanding or a resolution, but was met with a rigid reference to their T&Cs. While they stand firm on this technicality, I can't help but notice the growing chorus of users with similar grievances on platforms like Sitejabber and ProductReview.
If you're pondering CVmaker, I urge you: arm yourself with knowledge, set up personal renewal reminders, or even better, seek platforms that meld functionality with clear, transparent billing practices.”
“They cleverly scam you by putting you on a recurring monthly charge of $25 after you pay $2 for creating a CV. When you asked for charges to be reimbursed you get a quick reply saying that their terms and conditions do not allow for this. Stay away from this company. They are fraudulent.”
“Cvmaker is a simple subscription trap scam, where they try their best to hide subscription based nature of the service. The way cvmaker tries to hide this, could almost make it illegal in certain countries. And even after writing to them , they keep debiting on some pretext till push comes to shove. Do not use this service”
“Scammers!!!!! I only paid for a 7 day access to my cv and they took £18.95 from my account without my consent. Refused refund saying the account goes to auto renewal after 7 days! I one authourized a one time payment of £1.95!!! Avoid them at all cost, pure evil scam!!!!!!!!”
“Pure scam, they charge you 0.99 for a one time purchase, but secretely set u up for a montly 17,95 payment, i dont understand how paypal cooperates with this scammers”
“Like many other reviews, I was lured into paying $1.95 for a resume. It was not made clear to me that it was a subscription, and I was charged $24.95 without my consent. Stay away.”
“Do not use this website with your credit card!
I used this once and paid then for printing out two cv’s. I never subscribed for any more service.
Today they charged me twice for nearly 51 Euro total!”
