LiveCareer sounds like a great deal at first. But what they don't tell you is that once they have your credit card number to pay for your supposed $1.95 resume, they're going to charge it AGAIN $39.80 in 14 days. We had NO IDEA, there was no information or fine print indicating this would happen. After our card was charged $39.80, we called the customer service number from the website and were sent to a call center outsourced to India. In addition to the frustrating language barrier, we were told they could do nothing to refund our money. According to the representative, the confirmation email from the original resume we paid for included information about our card being charged $39.80 if we didn't call and cancel in a 14 days window. We never even opened the confirmation email - who does anymore? This is false advertising and very misleading marketing! How sad too, because the resume program is actually very nice and helpful. Had LiveCareer been honest about open, honest, and outright about their monthly plans, I would have had some respect for them. But burying terms and conditions that were NOT AGREED to, inside a confirmation email is completely unacceptable. We will be disputing this charge with the bank first thing on Monday and post more reviews to help others avoid falling into this unfair trap. LiveCareer, stop ruining your good product with false advertising!

Hi Brian P.,

I’m very sorry that you have had this experience with our service. We explain that the subscription is auto-renewing. We state this on the subscription sales page before you enter your card information and we send a payment confirmation email stating the date and amount of the auto- renewal. We do offer several ways to cancel including by phone, live chat, email and self-cancellation in your Account Settings.

Please contact me directly with the email address you used to create your account or the last 4 digits of the card that used to purchase and card holder’s name so that I can take a look at it personally and resolve this issue quickly for you. Please email me at anna.b@livecareer-support.com

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Anna
