They claim to offer a 'free' resume builder, however in order to print or save the resume, you have to pay $1.95 for a 14 day subscription. The website retains your credit card information and gives you no way to remove it without cancelling the account. They tell you that you have to cancel the subscription before the 14 day trial is over to avoid reoccurring billing but their website will not allow you to cancel it. Customer service is near impossible to get ahold of to rectify your issue - attempting to contact the customer service team online was a failure as it will not 'submit' and send your complaint, and the first rep I contacted by their 800 number hung up on me. The second representative told me I assumed that it was cancelled -after explaining my difficulty with the site- and told me it was my fault for not cancelling it, and they wouldn't refund my money AFTER taking a full year's subscription charge from my account! A complete and utter scam.
Tip for consumers:
There are other sites that offer free templates for download or to help build your resume that are far more reputable than this site, such as resumebuilder.org.

Hi Tameka H.,
I’m very sorry that you have had this experience with our site and did not have the best customer service experience. Our free account gives you the opportunity to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchase. The ability to print, email, or download your resume and cover letters are features included in our paid subscription and not listed as a feature of the free account. You can download a plain text version of your resume for free.
All of our subscriptions are auto-renewing. A monthly subscription makes it easy for our customers to customize the resume and cover letter for each position for which they are applying, and also to avoid interruption on the service. You can cancel your subscription at any time and we do offer several ways to do this including by phone, live chat, email and self-cancellation.
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
