DO NOT USE THIS SITE.

If you're not careful they will take 34.99 from you every month, and of course their "phones are currently down" and after waiting for live chat for almost an hour, no response. It happened to me, i'm a college student, so of course i don't have money to just throw around. But luckily i realized it right away and was only charged once.

Not to mention, the title of the site is a lie, "free resume building". Yeah sure, you can build it for free, but you have to pay to do anything with it afterwards.

Most people use this site to make their resume quickly, find out after working on it for X amount of time that it costs 1.95 for a two week sub to even save it, pay for it, and probably never go back on it.

This is where they screw you.

34.99 a month is a scam in itself for resume formatting. Two weeks for 1.95 turns out to be 34.99 every month until you realize they stole your money.

They know damn well most people aren't going to read through all the terms to find that if you don't cancel after two weeks that they will charge you, and they use this to their full advantage. How this site is still in operation is beyond me.

Stop ripping people off, change the auto charging. If i wanted a monthly subscription i would have signed up for it. I want my money back.

Tip for consumers:
cancel now.
