I never like writing bad reviews, but do so when I feel something is shady. I don't trust people or groups that aren't fair & try to take someone's money even when they make a mistake. They had posted in the rules (that I later saw after submitting to the 2021 song contest) that the deadline was at 12/1/2021 11:59 CST but the page that the link lead me to the song contest (at the last minute) had 11:59 PST & a countdown clock right under the ad video, so when I submitted I beat the clock & PST deadline time. Well, my 3 songs never got reviewed & when I asked them why they responded I did not submit them before the CST deadline so the system automatically rolled them over to the 2022 song contest. Also, their system automatically added the membership into my cart during a time I didn't catch until after I got the receipt for payment so you got to be always looking out for those automatically added products into your cart because their system kept adding products to my cart that I kept removing so this is a trick they got going on to catch those not paying attention. Then they'll go with their rule about never giving refunds no matter what. Well, I requested a refund directly from them 3 times & they would not even respond after their email about me submitting at the deadline cutoff. Even after I uploaded pictures of their PST deadline on their page & proof their system kept adding products into my cart automatically that was misleading and or wrong. I ended up opening a case through my payment company & not until then did they refund. So if you are having refund problems from people or groups like this, open a case with your payment company because if you're right & they are wrong like in my case, they won't refund without asking a 3rd party to step in which in my book is an unfair all about money group you can't trust. They refunded within 24 hours of me opening a case against them. Songwriters beware. How can you trust them with your new material if they're going to steal your money? Believe me, I got the picture proof but don't think I should post due to copyright laws. Not sure I can post pictures from their website. I did get a full refund 2 days ago from them after I filed the claim from P''''P"""" company.
