This company has been charging me $24.95 monthly for nearly a year without my consent. I was not informed when the 7-day trial period expired, and I never agreed to any ongoing subscription. Who would reasonably need a subscription for a CV-making website? I contacted their support team via email to request a refund, but they outright refused. It's clear this company takes advantage of unsuspecting customers, profiting unfairly. Their business practices are deeply unethical, and I trust that accountability will catch up with them in time. This kind of behavior is unacceptable. They should be deeply ashamed of themselves!

Very bad experience
December 16, 2024

I recently downloaded this app and initially paid a reasonable fee for a weekly subscription. However, after a few weeks, I was unexpectedly charged a hefty $29.95 without any prior notification or consent. This is completely unacceptable and feels like a scam.

When I contacted support to request a refund for the unauthorized charge, they refused to help. This lack of customer service is appalling.

I strongly advise potential users to steer clear of this app. Their deceptive billing practices and poor customer support are a major red flag.

Hiding prices
December 10, 2024

They are hiding prices on their website so you can easily misread them. After a while, they took your money as a subscription you didn't know about. Also, their email communication is rude, and they don't care when you want a refund. Never again.

I had a very disappointing experience with CVMaker, and I want to warn others before using their services.

I initially used CVMaker to create a CV for a friend. The website allowed me to create the CV without requiring account registration or making it clear that I was signing up for a subscription. After using the service, I was shocked to find an unauthorized charge of $24.95 on my account. I never agreed to any recurring subscription, nor did I receive any confirmation email or notification about this charge.

When I contacted CVMaker support, they claimed that the subscription details were supposedly sent to me and that I had agreed to their terms. However, I never saw any such agreement or received any email with these details. The website allowed me to use the service without being prompted to agree to terms, and I had no knowledge of any recurring payments being set up.

Despite this, they refused to issue a refund, stating that their "policies" are clear and that I should have reviewed their terms more thoroughly—something I could not have done, as no clear agreement was provided before I used the service. Their customer service response was dismissive, and they even accused me of trying to extort a refund by threatening to harm their reputation. This behavior is unprofessional and unethical.

In short, CVMaker's practices are misleading, and their customer service is unhelpful and defensive. I strongly advise against using their platform, as they engage in unfair billing practices and provide no transparency or proper communication about their terms.

Please be careful when dealing with CVMaker! If you decide to use their service, make sure to keep a close eye on your bank statements and read through any terms (even if they don't make it clear) to avoid unexpected charges.

SCAMMERS!
October 23, 2024

A misleading website called CVMaker.com when trying to create a resume. They advertised that I could access my resume for a fee of $1.95, but after entering my payment details, I was charged $25 without clear consent or warning that I would be subscribing to a plan. There was no clear indication on the page that I would be enrolled in a subscription service, and when I reached out to them for a refund, they refused. This feels deceptive, and I believe they are running a scam that takes advantage of users.

The company from CVMaker charges 1.95 EUR for the resume template and you have the option of using their service for 14 days.
You cancel your membership, deactivate your account.
After 14 days, they send an email that they renewed your membership and charged 19.99 EUR. He will do it again next month. The only way to get rid of their levy is to block the card and request a new one from the bank.
Pay the bank EUR 6.64 for the service and you are safe from CVMaker fraudsters.

CHEATS
September 11, 2024

CVmaker.com engages in misleading practices by hiding subscription charges in very small print at the very bottom of the screen, making it challenging for users to notice these hidden fees. This deceptive approach can result in unexpected costs for users who may not be fully aware of the subscription terms when they sign up.

Terrible Business
August 28, 2024

I originally signed up for a one-time CV, but the company charged me 24.95 dollars monthly since May 11th, 2023 without my knowledge and refuses to give me a refund. I don't even have proof of purchase because they failed to provide any form of notification due to their scummy policies. All I have is an email of them refusing to refund me.

I had the worst experience with them. I canceled my subscription on April 1,2024 and since then, I have been charged 24.97 euros every month. Despite my cancellation I was charged for May, June, and July.

It is clearly stated on their website that after account deactivation, all payments are suspended. But they continued to charge me 24.97 euros per month after canceling. Do not trust the positive reviews on Trustpilot for this company. They are total scammers. Cvmaker a trap to get your bank card details so they can extort money from you without your permission. This company should be shut down.

You pay a small amount to use their site. You are made aware of the expiration but not that you'll be debited thereafter monthly. On the day of expiration they debit you a larger amount without your consent and before the actual expiration and with no notification of this billing. All the agent says is "sorry for the misunderstanding". They cannot refund me because "that's not how the site works". INFURIATED!

CVMaker is a big scam
March 22, 2024

I strongly advise against engaging with this service. Initially, I paid about 2€ for a trial, but now they are deducting about 20€ from my account every month without authorization. Moreover, their customer support is unhelpful and unresponsive when it comes to resolving the issue; their primary focus appears to be extracting money rather than providing assistance. This experience has left me feeling scammed and deceived, and I caution others to avoid this service at all costs.

Caution: Automatic Renewals without Prior Notice
October 9, 2023

I ventured into CVmaker.com's services, enticed by the promise of a straightforward CV-building platform. While the tool delivers on its features, potential users should be on alert regarding their billing system.

The automatic renewal, embedded deep within their Terms & Conditions, caught me off guard due to the absence of a pre-renewal notification. Many reputable platforms offer reminders before charging, ensuring users are well-informed - sadly, this isn't the case with CVmaker.

Upon expressing my concerns, the response was a strict emphasis on the T&Cs. While they're not wrong on a technicality, the user experience suffers, as evidenced by a plethora of similar feedback on platforms such as Sitejabber and ProductReview.

For anyone considering CVmaker: be diligent, set personal reminders, and ideally, explore platforms that prioritize transparency and customer communication.

When you will initially subscribed to CVmaker, you will do it with the impression that you are opting for a 7-day trial at $1.95, because it is not made explicitly clear that this would automatically transition into a monthly membership costing $24.95. They took from my credit card 50$. Scam website!

Scam
January 11, 2024

After pushing payment button 1,95 euro, the scam starts.
Apparently a automatic permanent pay order arrives at your bank to pay monthly fees of 19 euro, even without any written approval from your side.
This is against all EU regulations.

A warned men is worth 2…

Crooks - no stars!
July 9, 2023

I have never heard of nor ever corresponded with this company until I got a $1.95 charge on my credit card. I don't know how they got my cc number but it was and is not an authorized purchase. Looks like they throw a small charge on your account hoping you won't notice. Stay away from this company. They appear to be as crooked as a country road. The only reason I gave them one star is because it would not accept lower.

CVmaker scam
April 20, 2021

I used it on 4/4/2021 for about $3. Then, I have been deducted again twice today on the 12/4/2021 without my permission for another $19.95 + $19.95 = $39.90 within the same month and the site was saying that they didn't take any money from my bank. The worst case is they were asking me to pay another $19.95 when they ought to refund me my $19.95. I demanded my refund for the extra $19.95 that they have deducted but they denied it. I did a police report and will bring this matter to the social media of the company cheating its customers.
