Overall it was fairly easy to use. I had some issues with the editing portion and spacing. I was not able to correct the issues with the editing tools that were made available on the sight. When I contacted customer service they informed me that the sight was developed using google chrome. It would have been helpful to know this before I started building my resume. Lastly I was not able to view the finished resume until I paid a modest fee ($2.95). This fee also came with a membership that would charge me a recurring monthly fee of($24.95). They give you 14 days to cancel, so not really free resumes.
I had a issue with my subscription. After quick chat to the adviser my problem was immediately solved. Happy customer!

Maria was a great representative. She was more than happy to take care of my cancellation with live career and went ahead and cancelled my previous two transactions immediately.

So I thought I signed up for a free month. Turns out after that they were charging me monthly at a rate of $9.95 per week! Their unlimited monthly subscription is only $3 a month! Plus I never received a receipt for these payments so I had no idea. I must have spent hundreds of dollars with LiveCareer until I noticed. I'll be warning everyone to stay away from them.

As a job seeker I typically get stuck in the application process when the employer is asking for a cover letter. The build your cover letter feature was an excellent tool to assist in creating a professional and job specific letter. Just a note, there is a fee but it was well worth the 1.95 it cost me to get this expert help.

Thank you. It was easily accessed, however, I was in a hurry and didn't list my jobs in the order according to year. I wanted to move the jobs around on my resume, although, I couldn't see where I could move them around.

Please, whatever you do, do not use this website to create a resume. You think they are charing you $2 to create a resume, then they start automatically billing your credit card every month. You get no notification that they are doing this, whatsoever, until you start noticing unusual billing on your credit card. As well, they change their billing name so it shows up as a different name on your credit card statement every month. My teenager used this site to make a resume, then my credit card was charged $50 a month for the next 7 months before I caught up with them. They WOULD NOT REIMBURSE ME A DIME, even though they took payment from a minor. This is a huge scam! They provide absolutely zero service for the debits they take out of your account.
We are very sorry that you feel this way. We are committed to providing great customer service. We take all feedback very seriously. We have sent you a private message so we can assist you with your concern and provide you with a timely resolution in a secure manner. Thanks for the feedback.

While explaining my situation with Louis Solanto, he listened to me and took the information that I gave him to fix my account. I had called last month to cancel my account but it was never done. Louis was able to find out what had happened and why it wasn't cancelled. I am over joyed that he was able to help me.

This LiveCareer site is a fraud. I signed up on Jan 18 for an one time resume for 1 dollar.
Then they quietly charged me 39.80 on February 3, March 17, March 30, May 12 and May 24. Even if the renewal starts 14 days later, they overcharged me. They never send email letting you know the account is about to renew like normal companies do. They don't even send you an receipt letting you know every month after you are charged.
That's 200 dollars lost.
When I contacted them they are only willing to reverse the extra error charge and one refund. As a poor college student, I feel very angry and would file complaints on every place I know of.

Answer: This is what the site advertised: For 14 day access, $14.95, and for a year $39.80. However, signing up for ANY service aloows the site to store your payment information for further billing, and getting in touch with them, much less obtaining help is nigh impossible. After two weeks they will pull $39.80 MONTHLY from your payment method (please see my review and others on Google and yelp for further verification of this).
Answer: Do not use this site!
Answer: I had to cancel my Debit Card account with Bank of America, because the Bank refused to block LiveCareer from my account. I wonder if they are in cahoots or what? I believe a class action suit may be required so we can get our funds back.
Answer: Call your bank and change your card number Call them and let them know you have contacted your bank and will contact the better business bureau of you don't get a full refund. Then contact the better bBB and file a formal complaint. You will have a refund within a week. That's how I got my money back
Answer: Dont waste your time trying to contact them. I went to my bank and had all future billing refused AND I went to the State Attorney General and reported them.
Answer: Hello, Sarah - Thank you for getting in touch with us, our subscriptions are auto-renewing, we have a continuous billing feature that charges your account after the 14-day period and every month for the regular price afterward. However, if you are only interested in the 14-trial and wish to avoid any recurring charges simply cancel your subscription before beforehand. We hope that this helps clear things up for you, if you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know. Best regards, LiveCareer US
