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!
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
They provided a diagram with parts and part numbers. They also made suggestions of alternative places to find replacement brush since ours is discontinued.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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!
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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!
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
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
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
"Very positive experience with JustAnswer. The gentleman was professional, asked the right questions, and genuinely tried to resolve my issue. I appreciated his help."
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!
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...
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!
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.
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.
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.
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 👍.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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!
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
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
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.
Tried to get my Harley Davidson fixed. They charged my card but never help me. I tried the second time ( Im stupid) No help, but sent me a survey about there service
This service puts you in touch with an expert in some field, from plumbing to law, in which you need help. I used it once with a question about an electrical problem; the guy accurately diagnosed the problem and told me what to do, it was fine. The second time, though--a plumbing question, the dishwasher wasn't draining properly--I got instructions that I couldn't follow. I ended up looking for an answer on Google, which sent me to a Youtube video, which suggested I was lucky I hadn't gotten very far--there were basic things I hadn't been told, including how to avoid electrocuting myself. When I complained, JustAnswers really didn't apologize or take the problem seriously, though they did refund their fee. I won't use them again.
I purchased a french door built in refrigerator (model KBF 042FTX02) from KitchenAide six years ago. The motherboard is malfunctioning and KitchenAide has no replacement parts to remedy this, as the factory was destroyed during the tsunami in Japan.The only option they will give me is to buy a new one! This company will not back up a 6 year old product. Consider this when buying appliances.
Yes they completed the task and fixed the problem. That wasn't my issue. What they did was quote me a price of $31 and charged me $50 instead. Each time a charge came up I would specifically ask is this part of the $31 or an additional charge and both times he said no it is part of the $31. Big surprise when I checked.
I have used this service twice, once voluntary and the other not. The first time I called to get an answer to what, I thought, was a pretty common question. Quickly I found I already knew more about the question and possible solution than my "expert" did. I, after spending too long just trying to get him to focus I threw in the towel and said 'thanks but no thanks.' Of course I asked for my deposit back but 'surprisingly' never received it. I knew than that these were just a bunch of hacked together out of job has beens who could never be expected to know more about a solution than I did before I called. The second time I was tricked into calling them because their web listing made it look like they were the hired guns for a particular product. When I had to spell the name of the service I was calling about I looked at the URL closer and realized who I called. Slam went the receiver and my pain was over, mercifully. The bottom line is do not call them, ever. You would be better waiting for divine inspiration for your answer than calling these bums. It may be a good idea gone horribly bad or just a bad idea dreamed up by someone in a heroin induced mind bending sleep. Look very closely at any URL that promises you expert help and if you see their name, run, don't walk, away from the listing.
JustAnsswer is a scam. They admit to wrongfully withholding funds from my expert account. I am filing a class action against them on behalf of experts and users. Contact me at *******@gmail.com if you are interested in being a class rep.
These people are crooks. Great at taking your money. I never got any answer. American Express' fraud detection shut down my credit card just for dealing with them. Spoke to an obnoxious service rep and never got my deposit back.
JustAnswer used to be great website to get answers to questions. However, it's become a nightmare given their misrepresentation and website design. They, by design, misrepresent and channel users/customers into becoming "subscription" customers - customers whom they charge a monthly fee to use the website.
First, although the Terms of Service agreement states a customer can ask "unlimited questions" - that is completely false. A customer is limited to asking just a few questions per month or they are charged a larger monthly subscription fee or terminated.
Second, the website is totally misleading and fraudulent. They are now in violation of state laws concerning medical and legal advice that is given over the website. They try to push "additional services" which is a violation of law in their approach. It's just a matter of time until a state's Attorney General pursues a class action against JustAnswer/eAnswer.
Takes your money and gives you a lame answer, then nothing. Not happy - no money back. Don't use them.
Scam, scam! Will take your money and never get back to you.
It is not easy to get your deposit back, you have to keep calling people and they shoot you around and around.
Just had a veterinarian assist me with a question about my dog ingesting something. Was extremely prompt, professional and helpful. Well worth the short amount of time spent on this. I also believe the negative reviews come from folks not understanding how to use the site. If you take the time to read the information, its easy. And you can read credentials or profiles before requesting an answer.
Having read lots of bad reviews i was wary at first however i saw a couple of good reviews and decided to go for it. I wasn't disappointed i have spent all day bouncing messages back and forward for only £26 I s**t you not. It has only been on one subject matter but i have asked multiple questions and the person was very helpful, i was certainly 100% satisfied with the service i received. It would have cost me a lot more with a solicitor for the information and discussion we shared. I have tried not to make this sound like some one who works for just answers as i definitely can confirm it is bonafide as far as i'm concerned. If you don't want to register for a monthly premium then don't simply click not now when requested to register for the free trial. If you do register for the free trial and don't want to pay a monthly subscription then cancel it or you will get charged more money. Read the terms and conditions or at least the relevant bits
A total waste of money. The "expert"asked for the model number of my stove so that he could give me accurate information. I never heard from him again.
One star is far too generous for this scam of a website. For the thirty seven pounds I paid I should have sought a professional's advice. My query was of a medical nature and the alleged expert was clearly from the wrong field of medicine (regardless of the fact they gave me a choice of medical professional to choose from). I was foolish and was vulnerable and taken advantage of (also they refuse to respond to any query or compliant) so PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SITE IT IS A SCAM AND NOTHING MORE
I wrote asking how to upgrade my computer from Windows Vista to Windows 7. The answer was that it could not be done until the computer manufacturer issues a new service pack and that I should just wait until that happens (it has been 5 years since I bought the computer and the manufacturer still has not issued the service pack). For this advice I paid $47.00.
I am very good at getting info from the web, a free source. Foolishly I allowed myself to get sucked into helpowl.com and somehow justanswer.com came with it (or vice versa). One of these required a good faith deposit of $5, but that immediately became in something near or over $20. No new information was forthcoming-I was sent the exact same web info that I already had from the manufacturer, which didn't answer my need for service details. I have searched the helpowl.com web site for ways to close my unsatisfactory relationship. In my effort to be fair this identical review is being posted with justanswer.com as well.

I am one of the experts on the site. I won't say what category I work in, but I do answer a ton of questions. I will say that the vast majority of these negative reviews I have read are because people either don't know how to use the site, or some other reason. You can post a one time question, and get an answer. The site does try to sell subscriptions from what I understand, but if you read what you are clicking on, you can avoid that. They are also very good about giving refunds. Aside from that, I cannot comment on billing issues as I just answer questions in my category.
What people don't always realize, is that we're not all doctors, lawyers, mechanics and appraisers sitting in a room together. We answer questions in our off time, while at home, work, etc. Yes, there may not be anyone online at 2am to help you fix your Honda... and no one may answer for days. That happens. Sometimes, your questions are so rare, unusual, odd or specific to you that we cannot answer them (No, I cannot say with 100% accuracy that the rock in your front yard is/is not from the moon!).
Like anyone, we expect to get paid for our work. Some people are thieves. They take our answers and run, and never pay us. Some people never come back to view the answers. Its not a perfect system, but it works.
NEVER use this site. NEVER give them ANY credit card information. They've been charging me $17.00 a month for the last six months and I have yet to talk to someone that can issue me a refund.
Don't let these folks get your money their return policy does not exist. They keep it and offer your a 25% discount on another question.
A total scam of your $$$. Do NOT use this. Stay Away. Waste of time and $$$. Paid $5 to wait and wait and wait some more for a response. And I was charged $5 for waiting. My time, my expense. Live and learn.
