You scammed me
February 25, 2025

You signed me up to pay a recurring monthly payment that I did not consent to, so not a positive experience at all.

Hi,

We are sorry for the inconvenience. PDF Simpli works with a user based system in which every user must choose the trial plan where it is explained that the account is for 14 days and due to an automatic renewal upon not canceling within the trial period. Also, every customer receives these details in the email once the account is created. Lastly in order to activate your account you must have agreed with the terms and conditions where the auto renewal details are once again provided. We hope this can be of assistance.

Sincerely,

PDF Simpli

Hi,

Hope you are doing well. Registering to our website is completely free and so is editing and converting. If you would like to download or print the converted document, then an active subscription is needed. You can use our 14 days trial for $1.95 or $1.45 to download the document and if you are not satisfied with us then you can cancel it any time before 14 days and you’ll only pay once.

We provide a risk-free trial period during which full refunds are available for all charges within 30 days of the initial transaction date if cancellation is overlooked. Should cancellation not be initiated, billing will continue as per the agreed terms, which must be accepted prior to commencing the trial. Participation in the trial is voluntary, and charges are not imposed arbitrarily.

Lastly in order to activate your account you must have agreed with the terms and conditions where the auto renewal details are once again provided.

We provide multiple convenient options for cancellation, including via phone, chat, email, and directly through your account's profile settings. With these accessible methods, canceling your subscription is straightforward. Furthermore, when the account is successfully canceled our system sends an automated email message.

Salve,

Grazie per aver condiviso con noi il suo feedback. Tutti i nostri servizi sono in abbonamento. Abbiamo lavorato molto duramente per aggiungere più funzionalità al nostro prodotto e offrire il miglior servizio possibile. Potete provare la nostra opzione “Ritardo” e attendere 24 ore per il download di un documento, gratuitamente. Oppure pagare per i nostri 14 giorni di prova (per 1,45 o 1,95 dollari) per ottenere immediatamente il file, a seconda del piano scelto. L'opzione da 1,95 dollari vi dà accesso completo e conversione illimitata per 14 giorni. Dopo aver provato il prodotto, se non si desidera continuare, è possibile chiamare o andare online per annullare prima della fine della prova o cambiare l'abbonamento con un piano diverso. Se non viene effettuata alcuna cancellazione o cambio di piano, si passa al nostro piano di abbonamento di base a rinnovo automatico per 49,95 dollari.

Abbiamo diversi piani a seconda delle vostre esigenze, con prezzi che vanno da 3,95 a 12,95 dollari per l'abbonamento di un singolo utente; contattateci telefonicamente al numero 1-844-898-1076 o via e-mail all'indirizzo support@worksimpli.com se siete interessati a mantenere il servizio a un prezzo inferiore.

Saluti,

Did not sign up for a subscription!
December 27, 2024

I recently purchased what "I thought" was a one off conversion from pdf to word for a business plan.
I submitted my details and paid for the conversion of £1.95.
Excellent service, fast and converted perfectly.
I was very happy with your service until 14 days later when £49.95 subscription was taken from my account without my knowledge!
I do not require a subscription, I have never before and probably will never again need to use this service and would very much like a refund as soon as possible please!

Fraudulent website
November 2, 2024

Fraudulent website. I bought a PDF translation for €1.45 paid via PayPal. A week later they charged me €49.50 for a monthly fee that I did not authorize. This is called stealing.

Thank you for your feedback, and we apologize for any confusion you experienced regarding our billing process. Upon reviewing our records, it appears that a subscription charge of $49.95 was submitted via PayPal for our services. Any other billing discrepancies, such as the $99.00 charge mentioned, are not related to our company.

We regret that you found the platform did not meet your expectations for basic functionality. We strive to ensure our tools are effective and user-friendly, and your comments will help us improve.

If you have further questions or need clarification, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly at 1-844-898-1076 or email us at support@worksimpli.io. We're committed to resolving any concerns you might have.

Salve,

Grazie per il tuo feedback. Ci dispiace molto per la tua esperienza. Tieni presente che operiamo con un modello di abbonamento, che è chiaramente delineato nei nostri termini quando ti iscrivi alla prova di 14 giorni. Questi termini vengono concordati prima che l'acquisto venga inoltrato e riceverai una copia di questo accordo via e-mail che ti informerà di tutti i dettagli su questo abbonamento. Se l'abbonamento non viene annullato prima della fine della prova, si rinnova automaticamente a $ 49,95.

Offriamo anche una garanzia di rimborso di 30 giorni per i clienti a cui potrebbe essere stato addebitato un importo inaspettato. Ti invitiamo a contattare il nostro team di supporto all'indirizzo support@pdfsimpli.com e saremo lieti di assisterti per qualsiasi problema, incluso un rimborso, se applicabile. Grazie per averci dato l'opportunità di risolvere questa questione.

Cordiali saluti,

If I could give 0 stars...advertises as "Free". After they deceive you into creating an account and providing your information they tell you there's a fee. If you sign up for their free trial and don't cancel timely it's $49.95 a month, whereas the normal annual fee is only $24 a month. Why pay $600 a month when you could get it for only $24 a month...because they are deceptive and hide this little gotcha in small print below everything. If you're going to disclose it, simply disclose it. I'm sure people will still screw up and they'll get their $600 a year. But I can't work with a deceptive (lie) and sneaky company.
