I tried to cancel my membership before the deadline but ended up getting charged anyway. I contacted them and was basically told the only way I could get a refund was if I left a positive review for them online. That's not right! Here is the email I was sent: "My name is Betty and I am the new Manager of Customer Relations at Resume Genius.

First of all I just wanted to express my apologies for any inconvenience you might have experienced using our site.

I was recently put in charge of this division in order to re-structure our policies and make sure we are providing the best service possible. I am aware that our refund guidelines are very strict and I am working hard to change this for the better.

My goal is to have a "no questions asked refund policy" in the future. I have talked to our Accounting Department about making an exception in your case after I read the transcript of the interaction you had with our agent.

Your refund has been processed. Usual timeframes to receive the credit in your account are 20 - 25 days.

I would like to help you expedite that process by putting in a word with our Accounting Team. I am simply asking for feedback.

Leaving a positive review about our interaction today takes only 1 minute and it will help tremendously in re-shaping our refund policy and getting your credit processed a lot faster.

Submitting the review with positive feedback will allow me to expedite your credit and get it processed within a just a few hours. Please feel free to mention my name. I want to show our corporate office that we can turn a negative experience into a positive one which is why it would be extremely helpful.

Once you are done submitting the review please let me know so I can check it and I will be sure to inform our Accounting Department so they can expedite your credit."

I wasn't going to play into this scam so I never wrote a positive review and also never got my refund. STAY AWAY!

Worked Perfectly for me.
September 18, 2019

The site does not give you a hard time in creating the most up to date resume formats on the website. Plus, they offer value for your money by offering the most negotiable plans. The best part is they have good customer relations and their reps just love what they do. I will definitely recommend your website to my colleagues.

I got what I needed
September 11, 2019

I did not exactly know how to start with my resume. Good thing I came across this website. I had a few problems with editing but the representative I talked with was proficient enough and really made it easy for me. I got the trial plan, it's just what I needed. They also cancelled it for me and was informed about fees and policy

Your resume is only free if you pay. Though they advertise themselves on search engines and in their FAQs as being free, so you'll spend all your time creating your resume AND THEN they'll hit you with the cost to download it.

Buyer beware
October 10, 2019

Here's the issue. Site is easy to use and informative, but wait until you no longer need the service anymore and try to cancel. What a nightmare. Several unauthorized charges on my credit card after cancelling the service. Support is not helpful, and rude. They are not accommodating or understanding. Awful customer service is an understatement. I cancelled on the 10th of the month, the automatic charge took place on the 8th and they wouldn't issue me a credit or prorate it. That's just ridiculous. And unjust.

I was in a rush to download my resume for an interview but for some reason, I just could not download it. Resume Genius has a team of amazing customer service representatives who are very patient and professional. Surprisingly, I got my resume in less than 2 minutes of talking to them. Wow!
