Not Happy at all. If I find my resume. I Will cancel my trial...
This helped me revamp my resume. However it quickly turned into a scam. I paid $2 to download a single copy of my resume. The company mislead me by including fine print on the confirmation email for my $2 purchase that they would begin a "14-day trial subscription."
The company keeps your credit card on file and begins to charge you $25 Per month after 14 days. If you didn't read the fine print of the receipt from your $2 purchase, they will charge your card every month. This sounds innocent, but they also do not notify you or contact you AT ALL once this "subscription" is in place. After I received the confirmation for my $2 purchase in April, they never emailed me again—even once I was apparently a paying subscriber. I belong to several subscriptions and they always send at least monthly email promotions/updates. It's clear they wanted to take my money without me noticing. Unfortunately, I did not notice these charges until they already charged over $100 from my bank account, months later.
Only do business with them if you intend to cancel anything they subscribe you to without your explicit consent and feel confident in your ability to do so.
We appreciate you taking a moment to share your satisfaction with us, Harrison!
This site claims to be cheap while charging you extra in the small print. On top of that the unsubscribe button hasn't worked 3/4 times I've clicked it causing me to be charged an extra £36 on top of the cheap £0.99 I paid for a cv. What a scummy company who should be ashamed of their anti consumer practices.
We're so sorry to know that you feel this way, James we're extremely transparent with the products and services that we offer.
We’d like to help you address any concerns that you might have in regards to our services.
To clarify, 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 unless you choose to cancel your subscription beforehand. As for the cancellation, we offer multiple ways for our users to able to cancel their accounts whether it is via phone, email, chat, self-canceling directly from the account Settings, or even we can process this for you.
We hope that this information helps clear things up and if you need any help whatsoever simply let us know.
Terrible! Advertise as free then when it comes down to getting your 'free' resume they hold it hostage until you pay. The service is good but what kind of company needs to lie to get customers? Just be up front and honest. Not okay!

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.

This gives you the ability to print, email or download your resume and cover letters using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the Basic Access account.
