“Very good service!”

Cynthia M.
2/26/24

I was really please with Cover Letter Now. I called to cancel my service and spoke with Boris. He was very polite and understanding. Not only did he cancelled the service for me but I also received my refund and extended time to use the service, if needed. I will recommend this service to anyone I know. Thanks to you Cover Letter Now!

Top Critical Review

“Not "Free" as advertised”

Michael R.
8/21/23

Don't advertise as a "free cover letter" when it's not actually free, and put the price actual price somewhere visible. This is false advertising.

I'm fine with paying for services and would have preferred to know that this service wasn't totally free up front.

I assumed it was a try before you by free trial for X number of downloads. So, fixing my cover letter and then having pay seconds before downloading didn't seem right.

There are kinder more honest ways to get our business than bait and switch.

We also provide a full access account for a small fee that grants you 14-days to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the free account.

In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our 14-day trial if you are not satisfied with our services.

There is nothing--nothing---in this "create your cover letter" experience that says this service is going to cost money plus a negative pick up subscription. Lazy and sleezy I think.

The cover letter building process was a breeze, but I was under the impression that I was paying $2.85 and would have access to create additional cover letters for 14 days (2 weeks), and that would be that. After I put my card information in, I was provided with a confirmation letter stating on October 14,2023 my card will be billed for an additional $23.85 to renew my subscription. I do not wish for my subscription to be renewed, or for my debit card to be re-billed.

Hello,

We are genuinely sorry for any confusion. Our 14-day trial auto-renews to our monthly access until you decide that it has met your expectations and proceed to cancel your subscription. In order to avoid any misunderstanding, this information is provided before, during, and after the subscription is bought. We also provide this information in the welcoming email sent during the purchase.

We would love to help you with your refund request. Please look for a message from us asking for your account information. We are certainly committed to changing your mind about us and ensuring that you receive the excellent customer service we pride ourselves on.

Thank you for your time!

Once I was able to connect with someone who didn't hang up on me I dealt with Isela Rojas who was very helpful. I dealt also with a "Jeff" or Geoff yesterday who would just hang up on me as soon as i said I wanted to cancel. Only when I said the word cancel, it was like, oh bad connection and then hang up on me. Btw, there was no bad connection and this is terrible to do a customer. I sure hope Geoff has not been trained to do theis as some type of training / stalling tactic. In any event I need to cancel and cant get through now. Please call me at *******424

I was under the impression this was free and once I built my cover letter, which is needed right now for the application I'm am currently submitting, I find out I have to pay for it. I wish that was disclosed up front. The letter is great and should prove helpful. If not for the feeling of being deceived I would give this site 5 stars.

They reel you in by making a good resume or cover letter and then charge you money. They shouldnt let you think its "free". I ended up paying for the trial and so far I am happy with it. I havent been hired yet but I feel much more confident when applying. I have never had a cover letter and I didnt know where to start. This was a great tool towards making a good cover letter.

The time it is suppose to take is obviously timed by some one that has done this multiple times. 5-10 minutes, is not sound, especially when you want to apply your resume towards the description in the Job announcement. Of course it differs for each person and it definitely depends on Transparency.

My experience was great until it came time to download it. The download button did not work. The convert to PDF kept sending me to a page that still would not allow me to download the cover letter. Finally, I was able to save it as PDF by going to print and selecting print to PDF. Now when I need to make adjustments I have to use ADOBE PRO to edit the document instead of being able to edit what's on the page.

Reason I chose this business:

It advertised free cover letter.
