Beware. PDFSimpli robs you!
September 14, 2022

Once they have your account, this company charges indiscriminately on your credit card. Customer Service is rude... no way you can cancel the charges once the invoice gets sent! Beware!

1) Wasn't even able to open a simple PDF, which given the name of this software, is a disgrace
2) Charged me $1.95 for the "free trial" in TWO separate transactions on my AmEx card (I can only imagine why)
3) Their onsite refund requesting is close to unuseable
4) They want to charge USD $40 a month for this ridiculous abuse. NO sane person would knowingly agree, given the much lower cost of much better and non-abusive alternatives

So, we all know about SaaS - Software as a Service. Let's call this one "BaaS" - Business as a Scam.

Scam! Scam! Scam!
October 24, 2022

They advertised 14days free access which I paid for because I needed to convert 2 documents. This morning they stole R399, hard earned. The wrath of God shall meet you soon, foolish people.

Having once only used the pdf transfer for a paltry sum of less than £2, I have discovered that I am being billed £29,95 every month by the company which has the cheek to call itself "LEGALSIMPLISOFTWARE".
I never willingly or knowingly entered any agreement with them other than the one off transaction, so
BE AWARE. Once you give your card details you may end up being scammed as I was!

Why would you ask for a review directly after a hidden payment barrier? Why would I be excited when you led me to believe the experience was free right up until I actually downloaded the doc.

100% scam! DO NOT USE
December 8, 2022

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! It is 100% a scam; after you authorized a payment of 1,95 euros, they charge 40 euros at the end of the month. I could not even download the document! I had to contact Paypal to cancel the "subscription" I didn't sign up for and already reported the company; I can't even believe they get to use Paypal to scam people! There are some positive reviews on Trustpilot, and it is 100% them; they are masters at scamming!

Hola,

Gracias por compartir sus comentarios. Nos tomamos todos los comentarios en serio y queremos aclarar un punto importante:

PDFSimpli NO tiene una aplicación en la Play Store.
Operamos exclusivamente a través de nuestro sitio web, PdfSimpli.com. Cualquier aplicación que diga representar a PDFSimpli no está afiliada a nosotros y puede ser fraudulenta. Le recomendamos encarecidamente que verifique la legitimidad de cualquier servicio para evitar confusiones o usos indebidos.

En cuanto a nuestro modelo de suscripción, ofrecemos una prueba de 14 días a un bajo coste inicial para que los usuarios puedan explorar nuestros servicios. A menos que se cancele la prueba o se cambie el plan antes de que finalice el periodo de prueba, se pasa a un plan de suscripción de renovación automática, como se indica claramente durante el registro. También ofrecemos varias opciones de precios, desde 3,95 $ al mes, para adaptarnos a las distintas necesidades de los usuarios.

Si tienes alguna duda o necesitas ayuda, te rogamos que te pongas en contacto con nosotros directamente en el 1-844-898-1076 o en support@worksimpli.io, para que podamos tratar este asunto y resolverlo.

If you're considering using PDFSIMPLI, I would strongly urge you to look elsewhere. My experience with their customer service has been nothing short of appalling. I've been hung up on multiple times while trying to resolve issues—talk about unprofessionalism.

When I attempted to cancel my subscription, the cancellation confirmation email conveniently arrived only after the renewal payment had gone through. This is a system flaw and a shady business practice designed to lock you in financially.

No Receipt or Payment History: To add insult to injury, there was no way to pull a receipt or payment history from my account. They didn't even send a payment confirmation via email. You're left without proof, making it impossible to dispute any charges with them.

I tried calling their customer service countless times to sort this out, but it seems like they've made themselves intentionally unreachable.

In light of this awful experience, I cannot stress enough how much better Adobe is as an alternative. Not only is it cheaper, but it also offers reliable and efficient service, which is the complete opposite of what you can expect from PDFSIMPLI.

Stay away from PDFSIMPLI if you value your time, money, and peace of mind!

Software does not work and the customer service does not want to cancel the subscription, especially when you called it in, and they will renew the subscription ASAP and charge you $ 39.95 and when you cancel through paypal you WILL NOT receive any refund from them! Do a chargeback though your PAYPAL account and credit card as these people a totally dishonest! BEWARE and do not waste your money on this garbage!
