I have worked in the same job for 14 years and all of a sudden found myself forced to find another. This resume program was so simple and easy to use. I was very pleased with the results.
Don't do it! The format of the word documents sucks. If you make a change is ruins the whole document plus it comes in Arial 10.5 font REALLY? Need a magnifying glass to read the resume. Don't waste your time. I spent more time fixing the format issues than if I created it myself.

My experience was very great. I called to see why Perfectresume was charging my card and Joe made everything easy. He was very patient and reassured me that he would handle the issue. To resolve the problem, Joe refunded my money back to my account. Calls like these are never stress-free but Joe managed to make it an easy stress-fee call!
Mary was absolutely helpful on the phone explaining a more in depth process of the subscription. As I wasn't sure about it prior and help alleviate the issues I was having.

I called regarding some billing issues that were the result of my misunderstanding of the continuous subscription past the 14 day period after you've used one of Resume Now's templates. The man helping me was pleasant, polite and understanding. He explained to me exactly why I was billed and, to my surprise, fully refunded my money. I was very appreciative of how willing to help me he was for a mistake that was truly due to my own silly negligence. If I ever again find the need to use Resume Now, I certainly will. Great resume templates and excellent customer service. Thanks!

Answer: This is what the site advertised: For 14 day access, $14.95, and for a year $39.80. However, signing up for ANY service aloows the site to store your payment information for further billing, and getting in touch with them, much less obtaining help is nigh impossible. After two weeks they will pull $39.80 MONTHLY from your payment method (please see my review and others on Google and yelp for further verification of this).
Answer: Do not use this site!
Answer: I had to cancel my Debit Card account with Bank of America, because the Bank refused to block LiveCareer from my account. I wonder if they are in cahoots or what? I believe a class action suit may be required so we can get our funds back.
Answer: Call your bank and change your card number Call them and let them know you have contacted your bank and will contact the better business bureau of you don't get a full refund. Then contact the better bBB and file a formal complaint. You will have a refund within a week. That's how I got my money back
Answer: Dont waste your time trying to contact them. I went to my bank and had all future billing refused AND I went to the State Attorney General and reported them.
Answer: Hello, Sarah - Thank you for getting in touch with us, our subscriptions are auto-renewing, we have a continuous billing feature that charges your account after the 14-day period and every month for the regular price afterward. However, if you are only interested in the 14-trial and wish to avoid any recurring charges simply cancel your subscription before beforehand. We hope that this helps clear things up for you, if you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know. Best regards, LiveCareer US
