Horrible!
September 28, 2014

Horrible! Spent $30 on the introductory promo and spoke to four readers - not one of them said anything that would validate any psychic ability.

So I'm a mom of 3, and I had a hunch something wasn't right. Of course I received the emails and I enjoyed reading them. I was curious and never had a reading, so I went for the three minute reading and went through the whole process of registering. Finally first physic I pick was quasha evening, who scared the hell out of me. My husbands cheating on me with a tall chick with long brown hair and blue eyes, sounds attractive, every guys dream chick perhaps. I was confused, my husband is not that tall, lol. With my heart pounding in my throat and feeling my heart ripped to shreds I continued talking, and of course calling her back with an "update", I stupidly did, I was desperate to find out the truth. I never found anything that proves he's cheating. In all I spent alot of money on her, over a thousand dollars. That was only 3 calls, and nothing ever came to pass. Were not rich, it was all we had in our bank account. I confronted my husband, even though quasha told me to"just wait", he sat on the couch totally confused and of course we had a huge argument. She said we wouldn't be together by this time next year which is now, but were together and were happy and just had another baby, we celebrated our 17 year anniversary in June. I didn't call her again. After that i wanted answers and didnt know another way, so i went to a local physic down town and got a reading, she said my husband loved and cared for me very much and thers no affair going on but that there's "a female", influencing him. Perhaps family... spot on among other things in our lives. My husband was sooooo pissed that i blew our savings and checking. But he recovered and found a way to pay rent. He kissed my forehead and says "i love you", i felt totally dumb, so i tell him where it was spent. And he says "that stuffs not true". Still curios i didnt cancel membership. So I tried windraven next, I asked the same question and says the same thing, yes he cheating on me, ok, two confirmed. Some things he said were true and nothing also manifested. I didn't call him again, and I'm now sticking to my membership minutes, I let it accumulate for three months and in January of this year I spoke with Capri, very sweet, kind and said everything I wanted to gear. Also nothing came to pass, so I didn't call her again. Two months later in looking through the list of regular physics and I come across twilight(, and I love the twilight saga), called her and I felt a good connection, everything she said manifested and I wasn't looking to see if my hubby was cheating on me, I wanted answers to help my teenage daughter, point her in the right direction cause she was making alot of wrong choices, and hanging out with the wrong people. As a mother who loves their kids very much I was very hurt and confused by my daughter. She turned into someone I didn't know and all I wanted was my daughter back, she's was 16 by the way. I couldn't have a regular conversation with her anymore. She was vicious, destroyed stuff, walked out on us, sometimes sneaking out in the middle of the night, I was so scared she might get hurt. I cried day in day out, sobbing even when I'm cooking dinner. And twilight calmed her spirit down and now I can talk to her. There's a huge difference in her and now she's in school doing great. My relationship with my husband is better and she changed our aura colors so I'm really surprised at my husband new attitude. She said I would see a difference and I'm like blaahh, but I'm seeing it and in June I made the mistake of trying another physic, curiosity. I guess, and I also needed answers, I couldn't get a hold of twilight. I spoke with physic Lucian, he was spot on with alot of things he said but also nothing came to pass. Spoke with him two months in a row, and nada. So I'm back to twilight and not changing her again. As for my husband cheating I still don't know... but if he comes home from work happy and kisses us all each day before and after work and doesn't complain about nothing. Only thing is all the physics predicted the same thing, "another female involved", who is influencing him. You be the judge.
I hope this helps you.

You are all idiots especially you psychic savantace when on every page asknow is linked on your posting the same stupid ad about visiting your website for a reading. I work for as know and savantace all I ever heard was bad reviews about you. I also use the service and we have some amazing people like medium jozette. Its all about the connection and if its not their then don't continue. As for customer service we go above and beyond to explain how to get to your psychic press 2 not one... We have a specific script that explains how to get thru the automated system. We go into detail about everything if your not listening during your set up call that's your own issue. We have numerous toll free #s to reach us and it is not a scam. People need to listen and comprehend before jumping to conclusions and posting bull$#*! online!

Let me start by saying did u guys noticed how all of us, the 'real' customers who've been scammed, rated this disgusting service 1 star while the other "reviews" gave it 5 stars? How OBVIOUS it is that they themselves ( or probably the "poor" minimum-wage employees they got there) had been posting those reviews in a very pathetic way trying to save their little crappy operation.
As for the reading, the first 5-10 min were ok (She kept trying to get me to 'lead' the conversation and at the same time reveal more about me --- which I refused!) But she talked very slow, with long pauses after EVERY sentence which made me feel and realized she was waiting for my 'approval / disapproval' so she could know where to take the conversation. She got made that I would guide her but I just said "ok... is that what u see?"
And for a few times I felt that SHE herself we lost.
Be careful because when calling for the first time they will answer right away and be nice but once they got their payment from u, that same number that u called to won't ever let your calls go through again! Unless of course its for another reading, than they would gladly get to the phone.
Call your credit card company and say u didn't authorized this transaction (remember u never singed anything) also prevents them from charging it again.
The Better Business Bureau will take care of them. It's not the first company that finds loops to bypass the system, the Feds always get companies like that one way or another so it's just a matter of time.

I just had my first reading with ask now
August 5, 2014

I just had my first reading with ask now. The first psychic I spoke to was very nice and told me that I will be married by next summer. The other psychic I spoke to to me I'll never get married to my BF even after 5 years, Which is pretty hurtful. I don't know what to believe. During my reading reading she told me that our relationship has been on and off which is so not true. When I told her that its not true, She told me that she see it happen in future. I am soo scared now.

I tried a few different psychics on Ask Now before I found a good fit. Kind of like Goldilocks, one was too religious, one was too hard to understand, one was very uplifting but her predictions didn't come to pass. I read a bunch of reviews of the different psychics and then tried Psychic Jozette. Excellent, couldn't ask for a better connection. I hope that helps someone.

At first when I set up and it was very interesting I spoke with Tonya at extension ******* the recording came on saying that my minutes were up I then told her that the call should be over she continue to talk with this being my first time I wasn't sure that I needed to hang up the phone and it went over eight minutes so now they're saying that my Bill have an outstanding balance for 7192 I've been called customer serviced and as soon as I spoke with someone the lady on the phone had a very bad attitude and was very rude I've been asked to speak with her manager and she was also very rude and disrespectful and then got an attitude when I told her that the other lady was rude she then said how and I told her she was cutting me off and very careless to the issue that I was having as far as the balance she then said I don't understand what you mean by rude and I said will you do not understand the definition of food is then she got an attitude and I told her then you better customer service and I was not okay with the service I had she going to call back within 48 hours to find out after the call is reviewed if I stopped to pay the 7192. As far as I can tell I'm very hot and angry because every customer service rep that I have spoken with is very rude I then told her you do not have to be a really big $#*! at this moment because it is not acceptable. So from my advice and I wish I would've did more research before calling this company I will never call this company again or recommend that anyone else called this company they suck. It was the worst first experience of my life! Although the psychic Tonya was really good she should be more considerate about someone who is a first-time user and do not know the protocols of hanging up after your 40 minutes are over or else you would get charged a $#*! load of money! Not cool and I really hope they give my money back

I called ask now on yesterday 06/06/2014 and spoke with zandalee I hope I am spelling the name correctly, I was experiencing a major decision with my fiancée that I was I total turmoil about right away she gave me specific insight on my fiancée and our situation she was 100% correct and she gave the an excellent reading. I want to thank her so much for her help she spoke to me and shared with me information that was right on point. I am totally for this psychic because she did not give my gimmicks, I am not a person who spend foolishly on these sorts of things this is only my second reading my first one was 20 years ago so please believe me I was at a crossroads that would have affected me in a major way. Please use her when you speak with her please have an open mind and listen and allow her to guide you in a clear direction don't not go in sobbing and crying, this is an honest review from an individual who desperately needing answers and I will use her again in the future, again thank you zandalee

I was just reading my online horoscope and received a free 3 minute reading. I called the number and enter my code and talked with a sales rep. Whom toke my credit card info in case I went over my free 3 minutes. I was informed there were 2 types of psychic's, #1 most experienced and cost the most and also the only types I could use for my 3 free minutes. #2 less expensive but still good psychic's. They give you instructions that your phone number is your account # and you pick out 4 #'s for a pin. They then transfer you over to the original line you called on and I had written down the instruction's, but it doesn't work, The line talks in English, then Spanish, then tells you to press #1, which took me back to customer service, whom reported I pressed a wrong key. They report they are sending me back, but after a minute I get a signal that I have been disconnected. So I call back, and I do everything they told me to do, but this time the recorded voice reports that you can not use you 3 free minutes on a #1 type psychic, only on a #2, the exact opposite of Operator Mark reported when he took my credit card #. So I hang up and try to get customer service again by pressing 1 again, and was told that number was not valid. WHAT A SCAM! I was told I would be speaking to VIRGO 99 whom is also clairvoyant, so if she is so good, lets see how long it takes her to see how "the nice word is" MAD, I am. If these people that work for ASKNOW.COM are as good as they say they are, they shouldn't have to work for a company that tries to scam their customers. STAY AWAY, IT'S A SCAM, SCAM, SCAM

Tried it once for the 3 minutes free
June 1, 2014

Tried it once for the 3 minutes free. The customer service rep was being a little pushy and kept trying to get me to buy a package deal but I kept respectfully declining and just wanted the free 3 minutes. My reading was with Zoe and it went okay. I have to wait till August to see if she was right. What I really don't like about them is that it just doesn't automatically hang up like on Psychic Sourc when your minutes are up. You have to listen for the beep which is kind of an inconvenience when you're trying to listen to the psychic and also listen for the beep so you won't go over. For that reason and their outrages prices, I will not be calling again.

They can be expensive but that depends on how much time you talk and who you pick. Every time it have called, I've enjoyed it. Well worth the money! But every time I called, I would pick Psychic Angel Reader Nicole. I don't think she's there anymore but I really enjoyed every single conversation with her. She's very friendly and very helpful. She may have went to California Psychics like some of them have, I don't know. Anyways, most of the staff is friendly. You gotta keep in mind that there are just some psychics that you don't click with. I've learned to look at their pictures and if I get a good feeling about them and they are REASONABLY priced, I call them.

If you're thinking about trying asknow, read my story and decide for yourself…

I was going through a very tough moment in my life. I was very vulnerable and needed answers. I decided to try asknow as a desperate and spur of the moment thing. The love of my life had decided he no longer wanted to be with me. I loved him very much and he was basically everything I had. I was extremely depressed and at my lowest.

I called asknow and was directed to a psychic, who according to the operator, was very honest and precise. I was crying sobbing as I told her my situation, and all I wanted was to know if I should let it go with my ex, or wait it out... but she avoided my question and told me she was going to help me recover my ex. She asked me to go to a grocery store and buy some things to put in my water and to read certain verses of the bible, and that it was going to cleanse my spirit. She promised this would bring him back in 1 week! She also had asked me to call her back every so often, and even though my minutes had ran out, I called her at $7 per minute (ridiculous, I know!) As vulnerable as I was, I did everything she asked. She was the only hope that I had… but I was desperate for results, so I stopped drinking the special water and reading the verses, and decided to try another psychic…

The second psychic also avoided my question and claimed that she was going to help me get my ex back. She asked me to go to the store and buy candles and write his name on them, and to call her back. But honestly I wasn't into that whole vuduu thing, or whatever its called… At that point I started to think that them saying "call me back" and avoiding my question is simply a way to get you to keep calling and spend my money! They knew I was vulnerable and would do anything…

Lastly, I was still lacking answers, still sad, still vulnerable, wasted my money, and I don't know why I did this, but in the month of January, I decided to give asknow a 3rd chance… I spoke to a third psychic, her name was Love Raine, who surprisingly answered my question with clarity! She told me "You will be back together in April. I definitely see it." At this point, I didn't know what to believe. I didn't want to base my hopes solely on something so superstitious… I finally cancelled my membership that month.

I prayed every single day for 6 months, without missing any days. My faith in God was everything I had left… When the month of April came around, I kept thinking about the 3rd psychic and what she had told me. Towards the end of April, things with me and my ex were getting a lot better, but we weren't together still. It wasn't until May 2nd, to be exact, that we finally got back together! And he said to me "I felt like we've been back together since April." Coincidence? I don't know. I'll leave that for whoever is reading this to decide…

I believe that it was God who did it. I prayed everyday for 6 months, and I lastly realized that I was being impatient and negative with my situation. We needed this time apart because things were very bad and we needed to figure ourselves out. Everything is wonderful between me and my BF now! The time apart turned out to be good.

Moral of the story? I rated this site 2 stars due to my money stolen and I felt like I was being taken advantage of because of how vulnerable I was. And even though that last psychic's prediction actually came true, I was praying everyday and it could've simply just been a coincidence. Like I said, let the reader decide…

The psychic tree psychic was wonderful and pleasant. I enjoyed her reading until I found out that I was being charged 13 dollar a minute without me knowing. I believed that I was being charged 10 dollars for 15 minutes to talk to any psychic. Wrong, wrong, wrong. The customer service was horrible and there was no respect for the consumer. Stay away from this site. They are out for your money. The psychics are cool but the reps are dangerously stealing your money.

The customer service representives are absolutely horrible and rude and the psychics predicted things that were totally wrong which got my hopes up then totally crushed them... Psychic capri may be calming and helpful but totally wrong on her predictions. Ends up making you feel even worse then you did before you talked to her!
