THESE GUYS ARE SCAMMERS!!!! Don't be fooled by the £5/ 3 days tria, they will take £39.00 out of your account every month and if you contact them they don't even reply to you. NO EVEN MY BANK CAN STOP THEM TO TAKE MONEY FROM MY ACCOUNT. We have already cancelled payments to these people and they still taking money every day. STAY AWAY!!!! ONLY GAVE 1 STAR BECAUSE CAN'T GIVE 0.

Hello Ana, We apologize for your experience using the service. We've cancelled your payment. Your payment is showing as 'reversed' on our end. This means that we were able to cancel the transaction before the funds left your account. When this happens the charge will just disappear from your account because it was never finalized. Please let me know if you need further assistance. Regards, Vanessa JustAnswer Customer Care VanessaVC@justanswer.com or 1-800-941-1229 ext. 28

I reached out to this company regarding… I reached out to this company regarding a Penalty Charge Notice inquiry. At that time, I paid a fee of £5 for a legal answer to my question, as per their request. To my surprise, I noticed that my PayPal account has been charged an additional £50.00 without my consent or prior authorization. I am deeply concerned about this unexpected charge, as it seems to be entirely unrelated to the initial transaction for which I willingly paid the £5 fee. This unauthorized charge has raised significant concerns about the integrity of their service. It appears to be a case of fraudulent billing, which is both unethical and illegal. I want to emphasize that I did not provide any consent or authorization for this additional charge, and I find it completely unjustified.please stay away from this company as they have this trap thinking you’re dealing with a law firm,just imagine the penalty charge notice was only £60 and this company charged me £5+£50=£55 just to tell me about a case study which can be found on google anyway! Luckily when I emailed them and told them about taking a legal action they were quick to refund the £50,but had I not taken a notice they would have carried on taking the subscription fee each month (subscription for what) just BS. So please don’t get trapped STAY AWAY from this SCAM! Date of experience: 01 October 2023

Do not contact this company. They say it will cost a small amount but they tie you into monthly subscription. Before you know it nearly £300 is taken out of your credit account

I asked a quick question about a technical issue. Sketchy answer that was unsatisfactory. A few days later they took £35 out of my bank account. I certainly do not need this service and did not authorise the subscription. I thought I was paying the £1 they requested for the ‘trial’.

I received help in Nov 2022 for which I paid. However only just noticed (my fault) that £35 has been taken each month to date. Not once was I told that I was signing up to that. Seems dishonest to me. Taking money for doing nothing

Was asked to authorise a payment of £5.00 to simply answer one legal question. I authorised that and unknowingly they began taking money from my account. 50 was the first I knew about it . My bank wasn't great at ensuring they wouldn't take anymore even though I was nigh on begging them to block transactions from this robbing company! Pay pal however were brilliant . They cancelled the subscription that I wasn't even aware if entered. They refunded me and were super helpful. Top marks to PayPal

JustAnswer is a devious company. They sign you up for a monthly membership without making that clear. So even though you think you're paying a one-time-fee, a few days later they will hit you with a monthly membership fee. (£50 in UK) In my case I was asking for legal advice and paid for a phone call. The advice given was very basic ... no better than I could get for free on google. So a waste of money. Worse, I was lured into the phone call as it sounded like the advice would be worthwhile. So they induced me into a situation where I paid for sh1t advice and then they charged me £150 over the next 3 months until I realised that they were repeatedly charging me. An awful company. Avoid. Update, 22/9/23: JustAnswer asked me to update this review after they refunded me the £150. Although I am glad to have got my money back it doesn’t change my opinion. Devious business practice. If they want positive reviews they should change their business ethics.

I did not get the correct answer + lost my credit score!! I asked a legal question. The person answering me was clearly not an expert in the field. Gave me wrong and unrelated answers. I first tried to explain more and direct her to my question. But, then I gave up. I was told to pay $5 fully refundable. But then two days later they charged me £50 for membership! Apparently, they had done such before and had complaints against them. So, my bank called me before authorizing the payment, I denied, and then had to cancel my credit card and ask for a new one with an adverse impact on my credit score!!

This site is an absolute scam. It should be illegal. Firstly they offer no real advice of any value at all, secondly they continues to charge your card even after you cancel. I paid for almost a year after cancelling many times and each time I requested a refund they refused. Stay away. It’s a scam.
