Resume formatting
September 11, 2020

Leslie P. Was very helpful in walking me through the features to help with formatting and even how much work experience to include. She was not rushed and very professional!

I like the website and the template to build my resume with, don't get me wrong but I don't need this service all the time throughout the year so I wanted to cancel my subscription. "They," tell you just go under your account in your settings and cancel it. Easy right? Well, that button is a dead button that leads you nowhere, you can even see it in the source code on your accounts page. Wasn't very happy with that but whatever, there's a customer service line. Oh, that didn't work either?! Shocker. The final resort was email and they sent me a confirmation email saying it was canceled but the best part was... they never canceled it! They are still charging me 23.70 a month for a service that "they said" was canceled 3 months ago. Yup, oh, did I say I got a confirmation email saying that it was also canceled so they made me think I wasn't going to be billed again? I'll just say that again then. Oh, and you can't see your billing history on your account since that button is also a dead button according to the source code. I've been through this pain so I hope someone else learns to not use this service.

Hello,

We are genuinely sorry for any confusion. We would like to take the opportunity to explain the reason for the recurring charges coming from Zety.com. Our basic access allows you to create and download a plain text version using our examples and tips; however, if you would like to download, print, or email a professionally formatted version of your new document using our copyrighted templates in a PDF or Word format, you will need to subscribe first for a small fee that provides you a 14-day trial—the same auto-renews to our monthly access until you decide that it has met your expectations and proceed to cancel your subscription.

In order to avoid any misunderstanding, this information is provided before, during, and after the subscription is bought. We also provide this information in the welcoming email sent during the purchase.

We have refunded you the requested amount. Please expect a private message from cs@zety.com with a solution. We are certainly committed to changing your mind about us and ensuring that you receive the excellent customer service we pride ourselves on.

Thank you for your time!

Michael was patient with me. Introduced me to even better packages. Offered to give me either a 50 percent discount or extend the month's subscription to a year. Which is what I wanted

We’re very sorry if this caused inconvenience for you, we'd like to take this chance to explain that if you did not receive a cancellation confirmation email that means that your account was never actually canceled or that something might have happened during the whole process.

Once any user processes a cancellation the system automatically generates an email with all of your cancelation information for future references if necessary. That being said, our team would love to review your account interaction to see if there's any history of a cancellation attempt.

At your earliest convenience, contact our Customer Service Team and they will be more than happy to review this for you.

This website do not provide any button to cancel the subscription on your own. You wont receive any email for the renewal and you even forget you ever subscribed to it.
