Scam
November 16, 2024

Awful behaving. You charged me 50 euro without any kind of warning. Very bad behavior. I have used and paid your service but there weren't any warning that after a month i would have been charged for a subscription i didn't ask for. Very very bad.

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.

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,

PDFSimpli

Fake reviews
July 18, 2024

The good reviews are fake. The website is a scam. It has been reported for defrauding people. They bill you and continue in hopes u do not catch it. I was scammed over $1300 by this company. Once the bad reviews started piling up on this website with stories similar to mine in 2022 they started creating dummy accounts and writing bogus good reviews to bury previous bad reviews ang hope no one finds out. They do this on other review sites as well. The man behind this scamming website is in Puerto Rico. Disgusting waste of skin scamming people of their hard earned money. Karma is real and u and everyone working for you will get what is coming to you. I see new stories everyday of people being scammed, how you sleep at night is beyond me.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience, but we want to clarify a few points. Our subscription process is transparent, and our terms and conditions, which are accepted before starting the trial, clearly state that the 14-day trial will automatically renew into our base subscription for $39.95 unless canceled.

Canceling your subscription is straightforward and can be done through various methods, including by phone, email, chat, or directly through your account. We also send a confirmation email when the trial is purchased, outlining these details. Additionally, during the trial period, customers have the option to cancel or downgrade their subscription. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out at support@pdfsimpli.com.

Regards,

PDFSimpli

At the beginning of November I bought only one translation service that I couldn't even use. After 20 days I got the charge for 49.95 dollars for a service that I don't use and don't need. I asked for a refund that was denied to me. Bad experience very close to a scam.

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. Please note that we operate on a subscription model, which is clearly outlined in our terms when signing up for the 14-day trial. If the subscription isn't canceled before the trial ends, it automatically renews. We also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee for customers who may have been charged unexpectedly. We encourage you to contact our support team at support@pdfsimpli.com, and we'll be happy to assist you with any issues, including a refund if applicable.

For a not too tech savy person, this is definitively not the app for them. Besides, they double charged my first free trial subscription. Very expensive.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We appreciate your feedback and would like to address your concerns.

Firstly, we would like to clarify that we do not have a mobile application available on any market; our website is designed to be fully utilized on a desktop browser. Mobile browsers may not display all features of our site due to compatibility limitations.

Regarding your subscription charge, we want to assure you that we do not offer a free trial, nor do we double charge for our services. The only complimentary option we provide is the "Delayed" feature, which allows you to download one document for free after waiting 24 hours. This option is available for use only once per customer if you prefer not to make a payment. Additionally, our 14-day trial is available for $1.45 or $1.95, depending on the plan you choose. The $1.95 option grants you unlimited conversions and immediate file access during the trial period. Please remember to cancel or modify your subscription before it ends to avoid being automatically enrolled in our base subscription plan at $49.95.

We understand that our service structure may not suit everyone, and we encourage you to explore the various plans we offer. If you have further questions or require assistance, feel free to reach out to us at 1-844-898-1076 or email support@worksimpli.io.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Best regards,
The PDFSimpli Team

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. All of our services are on a subscription basis. We have worked really hard to bring more functionality to our product to offer the best service for you. You can try our "Delayed" Option and wait 24 hr for the download of one document, free of charge. Or pay for our 14 day trial (for $1.45 or $1.95) to get your file immediately, depending on the plan you choose. The $1.95 option gives you full access and unlimited conversion for 14 days. After trying the product, if you do not wish to continue, call or go online to cancel before the trial ends or change the subscription to a different plan. If no cancellation or change of plan is made, then you move over to our auto-renewing base subscription plan for $39.95.

We have different plans depending on your needs, please reach out to us by phone 1-844-898-1076 or by email at support@worksimpli.io.

Your google ad is an illegal bait and switch and I hope your company shuts down and everyone who works there is complicit. The company advertises FREE services, then holds consumers hostage and forces them to pay money or wait 24 hours, after being allowed to waste their time working on the task, being led to think they are using a free service.
