“The website makes you give them your email address under the guise that they will send you a PDF version (which you opt in to pay for, I paid $3). They then create an account for you with a password that they generate and then mention in passing that you have been subscribed to their service (without you opting in). They then charge you the subscription fee after the “$3 trial” which they do not mention is a trial when you enter your details. They also very conveniently do not follow US laws as they do not send you renewal reminders with the charge amount, renewal date and the option to unsubscribe. This is all so disappointing because I actually like the CV I generated and I was happy paying the $3 for the service. I do not recommend this site due to the way they operate with people’s hard earned money. The same people who are trying hard to get their CVs right to better their lives and financial situations.”
“Platesti 10 lei sa faci un CV ca mai apoi te trezesti ca le dai aproape 90 de lei abonament lunar. Este o mare teapa. Nici macar nu au un numar de telefon sa poti intra in contact telefonic cu cineva, doar email-uri sau formulare.
Mare teapa, nu recomand. Mai bine va pierdeti dvs timpul si vi-l faceti in Photoshop.”
“SCAM!!! I have created an account on their site in march and i have paid around 2 EUR for a CV I needed asap and, today, in June, i received notification from bank that each month about 10 Eur went to them because they made me an automatic payment that I HAVE NEVER SIGNED FOR. The bank told me that they have a lot of people who had to block their cards, like I did because of this site.
I have wrote to the site and they said they wont give the money back!!!
I accesed this site ONLY ONCE in March for a CV and they have STOLEN until now about 40 euros from my card!!
I am attaching the print with teir answer.
They actually admit they are stealing.
Yoy can easily translate tgeir answer with google from romanian language.”
“They first charge you with 2.15$ for one service and they also subscribe you for 19.99$ subscription which you wont see because they put it in smaller letters on the bottom of the page. And if you dont delete your account and cancel the subscription manually, you will lose 19.99$ every month. Also, their policy is to NOT REFUND your money. Belive it or not...”
“The money is debited without my grant permission and acceptance, from my PayPal account, this is almost cheating, and the details for another payment price of $19.95 is written in almost a hidden condition on the payment page. please see the attached screenshot”
“Somebody asked me to help him with a CV, I found Cvmaker and I filled all the info that person, as well as his email and my card details. I can't even access that account. They are hiding their real taxation, because people would not choose such a service.”
“Buna ziua!
Asa cum am scris si acum doua zile, in ianuarie sotul meu a facut un CV si m-a rugat sa il platesc eu pentru ca nu avea cardul la el. Apoi in februarie si martie acest site mi-a retras de doua ori, in mod automat, fara sa mi se ceara acordul doua sume in valoare de 89 lei.
Atentie, eu nu eram persoana care a facut CV-ul si in consecinta acest abonament nu era pe numele meu, nici nu stiam de existenta acestui abonament!
Am solicitat in nenumarate randuri cele doua sume de 89 lei!!!
Am primit 13 refuzuri!!!
Vi se pare corect?
Din aceasta cauza nu va recomand acest site!
Veti avea aceleasi probleme!
Vi se vor retrage in mod nejustificat si ilegal bani din cont fara sa vi se ceara acordul!”
“Page that should help people make their CV, but hiddenly tricking deperate and broke people. Most of people who pay for stupid 2,99$ are desperate people looking for a job, a you take advantage of people who relies and believes that page just want to help them build better future. They believe that page like this would not trick them and hiddenly draw money out of them. And the page that offers help, scams people in mean and petty way.”
“Same as everyone writing here. I paid for one CV 3 £, after that I got an email I owe them 19,99£... I paid it and unsubcribed. I hope I am done with them. But it is very shady. I did not about free trial or monthly paying at all. It was not written or clearly mentioned at all! It's a big fraud!!”
“Firstly its not free. Your paying £2.95 for a cv template. If you dont cancel and deactivate your account they will automatically take £14.95 out of your account every month (check t&c) and if you dont pay it you will be charged. My suggestion is use another website”
“never use this website
apparently i owe them money even though i never used their services, except when i downloaded my CV. i now owe them 18 times the original amount for a subscription i was unaware of.”
“Created a CV paid for it. Little known after a week been charged another money from my account. When questioned I was told send an email and I will be refunded but when left an email I was told I have been subscribed automatically and I was charged for this.
Disgraceful customer service and won't issue a refund either.
Strictly not recommended for any kind of service.
DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE.”
“Paid for template for CV which wasn't very good anyway. Had to adjust it, paid £2.99. Thought that was it didn't realise 8 days later they take a subscription fee of £14.95 and want it every month.
What for?
Only need a CV template and already had Paid for it.
Paid through PayPal so cancelled payments.
Will not refund the first subscription fee.
If so many people are complaining about the fee they know full well its not clear when using the site.
Shame on you. Making money off people trying to get a job to earn a living.”
“Absolutely the same expiriance as everyone else! Not being notified that I have subscribed and two months later I received a £30 bill from them. Customer support extremely rude saying "first of all, you are the one subscribed to our services". I do not know how people / businesses like this one can still operate after so many people being deceived...”
“Same story that happened to all reviewers above. For using their service of CV formatting i promptly paid around 3 us dollars. To my surprice another demand for 20 us dollars came after 7 days.
However the payment was rejected by my card company. I further found a subscription in fine prints, which I cancelled.
They are still demanding the 20 us dollar payment.
Some one shd go to judiciary to teach them a lesson.”
“They are forcing me to pay £14.95 twice for two months and they are harassing me in my personal e mail. I refuse to pay them and if they try to take my payment then I will contact solicitor.”
