Terrible
September 6, 2016

So awful it told me it would only be 1.95 for 14 days and i thought it was a good deal however they charged over 20 dollars from my account i keep trying to take my credit card off but they only send me emails saying a representative will contact me in a couple days so i guess i just have to keep paying while they get back to me. A total scam and waste of money!

Satisfied Customer
September 7, 2016

Used Live Career to updated my resume for a job change. Easy to use and loved my final outcome. Got mixed up with dates on when I should cancel my subscription so I wouldn't be billed the following month, called Customer Service and Charlie really helped me out with NO problems. He did everything for me and was very polite. I will be a returning customer when it is time to again update my resume.

Dedicated Customer Service *****
September 5, 2016

I was so pleased with the service and outstanding assistance Representative David gave to me.
What I thought would take a substantial amount of time he was able to resolve in just a couple of minutes. He was polite, knowledgable and eager to help.
Thanks again for the awesome service you provide.

Joe is wonderful. I called to cancel my subscription. I had called in the past two months to cancel as well though I did not have my cancellation code. Joe was very pleasant and helpful and he gave me a confirmation code of our conversation. Please recognize Joe's excellence! His customer service skills go above and beyond.

Scam!
September 2, 2016

I used them to make one time CV FOR £1.95. After i have been charge $ 39.80 two months in a row tough i never subscribed for that service! After calling them to solove the problem tghey said that i didn't cancel after 14 days so it auto-renews and got into full payment. Which after checking was £14.95 and not the amount debited from my account. They couldn't even explain themselves and then they tried to confuse me more saying some lies.
I never got any confirmation email whatsoever from them that i subscribed to something which clearly i didn't. I asked them to re send the emails or the details of what i have done but they couldn't.
They big on fooling people and get them money so please bee aware and avoid this scam site!

September 1, 2016

I googled free Cv template si first page was livecareer.
I was in a hury so I started to write my resume. After one hour and something when I wanted to download, it wasnt FREE! Because of the time i spend i gave my card number for one download, 1.90 $. They said they bill monthly, so i tought i will cancel afterwards. They charged in 2 weeks, before I cancel. This is a scam! And google shouldnt show this for free resume template!

Hi,
2 weeks ago when spending time with a friend we discovered your website.

1. It was an easy to use website and between us my friend and I produced a wonderful CV to help her return to the job market in her late 40's after 27 years looking after her disabled sister.
2. The CV has given her confidence a tremendous boost.

Drawbacks

Lack of clarity that we would have to pay for this service. We got to printing it out and there was a request for payment details and my friend had not brought these with her so I paid it for her, planning to cancel after a few days once Paula had decided whether she wanted to make any changes.

Paula did not want to make any revisions so I intended to cancel the monthly standing order and forgot about it until today.

May increase your customer base if you send an email reminder after 10 or 12 days informing that the 2 weeks is nearly up and explaining what the benefits are on offer if the customer continues their monthly payments.

AS it happened when I rang today I was refunded the £16.99 that apparently went out of my account yesterday Aug 30th. I am very thankful and will heartily recommend your company. Thank you

False advertising
August 30, 2016

Scam. I googled "free resume builder", LiveCareer came up at the top as "Free Resume Builder". Great! I thought. Spent ages inputting my information and when I was finally done, I clicked DOWNLOAD PDF. The next page I was taken to requested credit card information. I had to make a payment in order to download my "free resume template". Time wasted!

I want to be clear, I understand resume builders/templates are a big resource and paying for them is not my issue. My issue stems from the fact that I was told this was a free service and in the end it wasn't.
