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!

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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!

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.

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

I had a question, just out of the blue thought I would give it a try and worth the money to get an answer from a professional who should know. I was pleasantly surprised at the prompt response to my initial questions and my follow up question. I recently confirmed the answer I received from "JustAnswer". By taking the chance and paying the cost to get an outside, professional answer, just netted me some much needed extra dollars. So, yes, for what I was looking for, it was definitely well worth it. Amazing since I hardly ever will pay for something like this but this time so glad I did.

My dog bronzes over. Last time me and my vet turned her from red and itchy to snow white again. We moved, she bronzed over and I followed the same path with a different vet to no avail' I was about to give up when I went back to "Just Answer" since they helped so much on another question. The vet offered that this time she may be bronzing for different reasons. You were right. We pulled the treats, and attacked for a yeast infection and she is getting better- she is happy again and not sick. Thank you.

I noticed the first so called "person" you speak with about any problem is just an especially dumb chat bot.

You can say pretty much anything to them and they will just vomit forth pre scripted questions (which you can answer with complete nonsense, such as telling them your sick kitty is a Ferrari with fouled spark plugs, or your Chevy is a "Ford Model T built in 1905.")

Then they auto forward you to their "payment" screen.

A sleazy company that seems to solely exist for taking desperate peoples money.

Answers, not solutions.
June 4, 2016

I received a quick answer to a diagnostic problem with a refrigerator. I told the guru what I was experiencing, what I had investigated with the problem, and what I suspected the solution was and wanted to be second guessed. I was told my line of thinking was completely correct and asked to rate so he could get paid. When I received the parts and switched them out, the problem persisted. I said I wondered if I had a bad part or is there something else I missed. He agreed it was a bad part. I got a new part and nothing changed. After doing extensive research I discovered I had made some assumptions in my original diagnosis (inside fans not running) that were false (inside fans turn off when doors are opened to conserve energy). Any real technician would have known the fans don't run when the doors are open and should have educated or second guessed me and steered me in the right direction. Turns out rather than being the control board it was a simple temperature sensor. When I asked how I could check the operation of the temperature sensor with a voltage probe I got no answer.

So basically I paid money for a yes-man to pat me on the back and agree with me multiple times instead of a tech to walk me through the process and identify where I was going wrong. In the end I got an "answer" but not a solution. I also spent $300 on parts I didn't need based on the confidence that a "guru" agreed with my flawed line of reasoning completely. If I ever use this service again, which is unlikely, I definitely won't be pressured into rating my answer before I'm sure it was the correct one.

Edit 6/5/16: I added a star to my review because I was contacted by customer service and offered a refund at least. Believe it or not, I decided not I to take them up on it. After reviewing the conversation with the tech, even though he didn't point me in the right direction the person did take the time to find an exploded parts diagram, a link to the parts, and a couple of other things. Even though it didn't ultimately solve the problem at least I feel there was enough added value to the process not to ask for a refund. I guess one needs to have the proper expectations going into this: you're going to get some quick answers, not an extended saga over days as you try different things. Also, it's incredibly hard to diagnose appliances remotely without being able to see them. I still feel like the person could have done more to point me in the right direction, but at least he added value to the process.

Most useful site online!
June 5, 2016

I've used this website for two different issues, both vets, one large animal, a goat, and one cat vet.
The goat situation was quite difficult and the vet, who worked with me was very qualified and helpful over quite a few days. She explained everything clearly with care and feelings for my milk goat. I couldn't have had better care if I had taken her to a vet in person.
The cat vet was just as helpful, although the situation was not as serious.
I will use this site every time I have a need they can fulfill.

Suffered from a persistent fever last month. Nothing I did, could bring my fever down. Finally, contacted justanswer experts for an advice and started feeling better within a weeks time. They were like a life savior for me. Because of this fever, my work was getting affected, which in turn was affecting my mental peace. The experts were very responsible and understanding. Comforted me throughout the session as such fevers are normal and that I shouldn't get all worried. Now every time I have an issue, justanswer experts are the first people to come to my mind.
