Feb 12, 2026

I went on line to ask 1 question as to why my printer is not printing black ink and how to fix it. There were "instructions" - but it didn't work. Little did I know they were charging my credit card 6 times for $44. I know - my fault - one of my flaws - I hate bills and statements. I just pay the bill without looking. But i NEVER agreed to pay $44 a month - especially since I wanted help with 1 question and they failed!

Aug 7, 2026

I have used JustAnswer various times, also with quite outlandish questions. They have been able to support me every time. Great platform and very cost-efficient service!

Aug 5, 2026

I needed some guidance on how to go about ending well water access with a verbal agreement only. Richard was very thorough and gave me a great starting point for tackling this issue!

Aug 4, 2026

No waiting. The Vet called me within 3 minutes. She was professional and answered all my questions. She made sure I understood her recommendations before we hung up.

Jul 31, 2026

The Dr called back right away, even though I missed the first call. She answered my "required vaccinations" question, but also shared situational suggestions that were helpful.

Jul 18, 2026

I am scheduled for knee replacement surgery in about 2 weeks. He was able to answer my question regarding medications completely. The other question involved local knowledge which presumably he did not have but gave me an idea of where to check next.

Jul 18, 2026

Approximately every 2 to 3 hours I would have a feeling of intensity all over my body, with my vision, mildly hampered, and my heart pounding. The doctor was able to provide some comfort, but also point me in the right direction for medical help. Good folks.

Jul 14, 2026

My young dog got into my old dog's medication on the Fourth of July. I was able to get connected with a veterinarian fairly quickly who eased my mind that everything would be OK.

Jul 3, 2026

Great experience, vacuum was not picking up. We went through all the possible issues that could cause this and in a very short time my issue was resolved.

Jun 23, 2026

Dog had gotten into an Ant Stake and we were concerned, due to warnings on product warning. Getting a feedback to calm our concerns was awesome, all within minutes

Jun 21, 2026

Unit failed to provide continuous pressure. Technician asked what nozzle was at end my response black plastic one. He said that's the soap tip all water pressure tips are metal. I got one from a neighbor s unit and all is good. The problem was figured out by Moose in about 5 minutes of conversation. Thank you very much.

Jun 9, 2026

The young lady was knowledgeable, professional, patient and courteous. She walked me through step by step until I got it right. Very pleased with my experience.

Jun 8, 2026

They provided a diagram with parts and part numbers. They also made suggestions of alternative places to find replacement brush since ours is discontinued.

Jun 6, 2026

Helped diagnose and narrow the possible causes for my loud refrigerator noises. Provided parts info and video instructions on how to fix. Works great now!

Jun 5, 2026

Technician's answers were clear and concise. Appreciated the message to say that he was searching for an answer to my query as we went through various stages.

Jun 3, 2026

I have some sweet baby chicks who have had a few issues. Dr. E was excellent and gave me valuable feedback. My only concern was being charged significantly more than what the initial chat person said- but any price is worth it for them.

Jun 3, 2026

Good conversation, however lawyer does not practice in the state of Florida and limited in her responses. Also, I'm surprised the charge on my credit card is $65 dollars. Thought it was only to be $5.

Jun 1, 2026

Austin talked us through the entire process of fixing our dishwasher. We got disconnected a few times but he continued to call back. We were very pleased with his knowledge and helpfulness.

May 31, 2026

Bad weather possibly fried the motherboard on our older model french door fridge display. But Just Answers, Matthew Morrison, answered my call with politeness, knowledge and helpfulness. I told him what was going on and he even looked up the part I needed to easily replace it. Saved me a lot of money, so I didn't need to hire a repair team!

May 26, 2026

After some trouble shooting on our own, Our customer service rep did an excellent job walking us through the next steps to get it up and running rather easily.

May 26, 2026

My dog had a massive seizure while I was at work, came home and after two hours of no luck in helping her, found this site, paid the five dollars and got almost immediate help. Thank you so much!

May 23, 2026

JA service was fast, informative and helpful. Unfortunately Yahoo has been unresponsive after unexplained disappearance of more than 10,000 emails, many of which are important to my business

May 19, 2026

I asked about back pain and muscle spasms after a deep tissue massage. Dr. Josh relayed the concerns, and solutions quickly and in an easy to understand manner. My next steps are laid out and I'm very pleased with his advice.

May 17, 2026

I bought a new class c rv and am having a plumbing issue. As with many such cases, there are may reasons why this is occurring. The technician seems to have covered all of them.

May 14, 2026

My experience with Linda CPA was wonderful. All my questions were answered quickly, clearly, and directly. Truly an expert in this matter. I'm very thankful.

May 13, 2026

Benji was an excellent help. He clearly and precisely answered what I needed. A pleasant experience. Now I know how to clarify my doubts in the future. THANK YOU.

May 13, 2026

Connection via online chat worked well. I was connected to someone who could direct me to some troubleshooting tips. With the issue intermittent, I can't tell if it completely works, but for now it's good.

May 8, 2026

I was very impressed with the time it took for Derrick to call me. Less than 5 min! As a Toyota technician, Derrick offered 4 possible solutions. I'm following up with my mechanic later today and hopefully we'll resolve this issue. Thank you

May 5, 2026

Having starting problems and have checked out all of the usual suspects. Thought I would get an opinion more knowledgeable than my own. He had several other ideas to check so the search goes on Great resource for those of us who make pretty good parts swappers!

Apr 30, 2026

Very good and timely. Active engaged conversation. Other than the minimal charge for the account, will there be any more charges? I was a little surprised not asked to provide pic or video

Apr 25, 2026

Robert was reassuring even though not too much that could be done about my situation but not cause of him he still tried to help even if I didn't have enough info. Very nice young man

Apr 25, 2026

Good experience with tech. Accomplished what I needed done. But was suppose to be charged $5 refundable fee. You charged my account $70. Want a refund of these unwarranted charges. Thanks

Apr 23, 2026

"Very positive experience with JustAnswer. The gentleman was professional, asked the right questions, and genuinely tried to resolve my issue. I appreciated his help."

Apr 4, 2026

She was very understanding of my inquiry. Led me through steps to help solve issue. Wish all folks would be like her. Had a very frustrating night but the lady made my day much better. Thank you!

Mar 30, 2026

Helpful overall - took more "Bot Chat" to get to him than I'd like. Could have asked for all contact info at once instead a series of individual Qs (e.g. Name, phone, email, zip code, etc.). While service was good, end result, no so. Appears we may have hardware issues...

Mar 29, 2026

First time caller, they surprise you w a $5 supposedly refundable fee, i was desperate so went for it. The Tech was awesome. He was patient, so incredibly helpful and persistent. We got it fixed yay. Cant say enough about him. Turns out the $5 fee is attached to some $38 monthly membership scam that auto renews annually of course. I cancelled that membership this morning. Not sure if i get any refund but at this point im thrilled my device works!

Mar 23, 2026

I went online seeking some answers and never expected to receive in details from every question that I asked. Will most definitely seek legal help when the time is right.

Mar 21, 2026

I'm very excited to have found this resource. There's a lot to know about my camper and now that I've got some resources, I'll be much more informed! Super happy with what your service provides.

Mar 21, 2026

The consultant was very thorough in her answer and prompt. She gave me why my scenario may warrant more than Ii thought and questions to ask the life insurance that I did not think of.

Mar 19, 2026

They helped track where my package was when tracking #was wrong, I m a old lady that doesn't know much about cell phones(old school). They were great 👍.

Mar 15, 2026

Jared O was extremely professional and quite nice. He answered all my questions and resolved the problem quickly. Thank you for this valuable service. It worked GREAT!

Mar 12, 2026

Howard was incredibly thorough and answered all of my questions even as new ones came up. He not only provided peace of mind but gave me actionable advice on how to proceed in my matter.

Mar 10, 2026

He showed much patience and persistence over 3 days to solve my problem. Always gave very detailed next steps and was great for me who is not a computer expert.

Mar 10, 2026

JustAnswer walked me through problem solving the lost connection with my Echo. After four days of trying to figure it out I turned to JustAnswer. Solved in less than an hour. Thank you. Great service.

Mar 9, 2026

Was having problems with my blink cameras. Erik assisted via a comprehensive JA text that while it didn't completely solve the issue at hand, it got me back to digging through router settings, updating firmware and the like. Extremely recommended!

Mar 6, 2026

Our puppy found an old pill under the stove and we were freaking out since we knew some meds can be toxic. I received a quick reply and was able to relax knowing she would be ok. Thank you for this service!

Mar 5, 2026

Kathy needs 10 stars for her patience helping this 83 year old senior who is also technically challenged. She should get a raise and a few hugs for the time that she spent with me to get my situation fixed so I would have some peace of mind. Blessings

Mar 4, 2026

Quick connection to agent. He restated my question until we agreed upon the problem. Quickly addressed my concerns and gave me excellent advise for future years.

Mar 4, 2026

Put my mind at rest when I accidentally sprayed lemon essential oil in a room where my kittens were. Thankfully they're not showing any symptoms so just need to monitor for now

Mar 3, 2026

Online attorney Richard took in my info about problem. Then he asked couple specific questions and produced a set of very reasonable steps I could take to get at a solution. His help much appreciated.

Excellent resource for old cars!
March 17, 2016

I recently purchased an old Miata about 6 months ago with over 150,000 miles. JustAnswer has been a great rescource for getting answers about issues I have. I have used the site three times and each time te expert was able to help diagnose and provide a solution for what I needed. They do send quite a bit of email and try to get you to sign up for a membership so watch out, but besides that it is a great service. I would use it again!

I asked a legal question and i had 2 lawyers working on that because the first one did not fit with my question. They asked me more info to make sure their answers were the most personalized possible. My only complaint would be, it took longer, but I understand legal matters are more challenging. I saved a lot of money.

I have used them before w/no issue. Recently received advice from one of their technicians. Advice did not solve problem. Just Answer never refunded the price. I believe I was beyond the 30 day refund window but that is because I followed advice of technician, ordered part, part came but didn't work, ordered another one of the same part to see if the original was bad, it didn't work, ordered a different part based on advice of others, it worked. Meanwhile the 30 days had past. Ask for refund of $22 & have never heard back. Finally heard back and was refunded the $.

My Decision

After reviewing the answer, I decided not to bid on the car because it would have cost me more than I wanted to invest in the car to fix it after winning the bid.

Not using their service ever again
March 15, 2016

Next time I would rather go out and have a face-to-face free attorney consultation. This is what I get for being lazy. I paid almost $50 for a one sentence answer. It took me more time to setup the account then what it took the attorney to write a one paragraph reply. And not even a good reply. I hope you can have a better experience.

I had never used JustAnswer before, but for my problem item which was worth hundreds I thought I would give it a shot. I was pleasnatly surprised when the responses were quick and accurate. The technician understood the product and even made recommendations on what to get if the product could not be repaired. I would use the site again

Low cost fixes by experts
March 13, 2016

As a retired ex Computer engineer, Help Desk Manager and Voice Networking Manager for a very large corporation I normally try to fix all sorts of problems myself naturally! I also spent 2 years on another site successfully diagnosing mostly washing machine faults and problems.
This time JustAnswer came up trumps very quickly thus saving face with my wife! I am very happy with the result and the small cost.

I recently experienced a power surge, during a storm, which shut down my receiver. It had happened several times in the past and I was always able to power it up again but not this time. I sent a query to Just Ask in hopes someone could help me get it going again. I got a reply from a man named Nathan who informed me about something I could try but he wasn't optimistic that it would work and said it probably would cost more to fix than it was worth. He was very knowledgeable about my problem and the make and modle of my receiver and even sent me two links where I could find reasonably-priced replacements. This was my 1st experience with Just Ask and I would have no reservations about using them again. I was completely satisfied with the knowledge and professionalism of the gentleman who answered my query.

Happily surprised!
March 11, 2016

I had a mysterious antique I wanted to know about... and the prospect of finding and visiting an expert in person seemed very time-consuming and daunting. I had never used a site like this before, and I thought I would give it a try... and I was very happily surprised! I sent my email and was answered almost immediately by an expert in the field I required, who requested pictures. I had some difficulty sending them, but the customer support people were very friendly and helpful. My expert got back to me very quickly with a very thoughtful and well-researched reply, and even sent an email address of someone who could possibly give me even more information. So I must say I was very pleased with this site, and would definitely recommend it.

I asked Michael, a so called 'Research Librarian' with an apparent wealth of knowledge, if he ever heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise. He said that he hadn't.

When I mentioned that I thought not, as it was a little known Sith legend, he claimed that if a tragedy does not appear in his archives, then it does not exist.

I then received an order on my credit card for the extortionate price of £66, even though my question had not been answered. You'd think that a person would be friendly based on how good your manners are, rather than how big your pocketbook is.

Now he won't respond to further messages, and my credit bill is maxi-big.

Looks like he had the high ground on this one.
