Unscrupulous. I cancelled my account and they continued to bill me and were pretty obnoxious over the phone. Don't do business with them.
An author here, and not just a listener-First of all, they require a contract to upload your content. Now the site goes by a subscription, which costs $20 or so, then you can purchase an audio book. Well, I never actually bought, although, I did try to get a free one, but I didn't understand what I was doing because their set up is strange. The subscription aspect is nonsense, therefore, a gouge anyway. That alone is enough of an indicator for costumers to avoid the site.
This review is more from my perspective as an author. After I got the contract dealt with, which took a week longer than it should have because they only check emails once a day (another red flag). This is also fishy-They use a file transfer protocal app, to receive the files.
What bugs me the most is their 2 free audio books feature, which, is now 3 (I've just noticed as I went for the site address). This makes the site not much better than a torrent site, which especially hurts unrecognized content creators. This caused me to loosely promote my audio book on my YouTube channel, because I doubt this site is very popular (I would esentially be giving my book away).
So yeah, everybody just avoid this site, which is obviously a scam site, as I see other reviews as I type this, haha.
Hi please cancel my acoount. I signed up for free trial and yet the books have a high price. Cancel it immediately if your not a scammers
Hi MM, we've sent you a private message and I hope that we can resolve this quickly for you.
Over all good service. Keep you posted on expiring credits, good selection of books. Only 4 stars instead of 5: a little pricey.
It'S A LIE AND NOTHING WILL BE GIVEN FOR FREE. THE MOST FRUSTRATING AND MISLEADING PRETEND/WANNA BE AND DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN OPENLY STEAL LIKE THEY DO
