I am a college student applying for jobs and I was building a resume for the first time. I really needed it for free because as I mentioned I am a college student, a freshman actually. I finished my "free" resume and realized I had to pay for the download. It said it was only $1.95 to download it with the free trial so that's what I did. Little did I know it had been charging my card $40 a month for the last 6-months. I cannot afford $240. I am seriously hoping they will find the heart to return my money to me because I truly cannot afford that right now.

I was very upset because I thought I signed up to only have me résumé for 14 days, without the clear understanding of having to cancel my package. I soon noticed $25 coming out of my bank account from this program. Furious at the loss of money, the lady through customer service refunded my money back and canceled the account for me. I greatly appreciate this gesture and her patience.
Great customer service. And an answer for eery one question I had and helped me perfectly through my situation.

One of the features that makes joining your site is the Free (with membership) Resume Check. However, this feature is a joke! I created my first resume and activated Resume Check (RC). When the RC window appeared with my resume issues, it contained spelling and grammatical errors. There was a spelling error in the first sentence ("you're" when it should have been "your"). I have difficultly granting credibility in such a case. Further, the "problems" that were diagnosed regarding my resume were nonexistent. Where it said I had errors, none were found that correlated with what was suggested. For example, it says that I may have misspelled words. If suggesting that words may be misspelled, the words in questions should be mentioned. Another thing that bothered me is that RC said that I used descriptions that were too complex or detailed; I added some of the descriptions that were suggested while editing my resume! Why would your site suggest descriptions or sentences that are too complex if your RC is going to suggest removing/rewording them? Also, I tried to live chat with a representative via my Safari browser on Mac, which is my browser of choice. Live chat would not work, even after I tried five times. I had to open Firefox in order to access a live chat rep.
I hope that my detailed review is beneficial to you because I think that your site has potential; however, not as one which has the right to charge any fees. Not at this time anyhow.

The lady who helped was very dedicated. She helped me through every problem that I had with my resume. She kindly made some suggestions which were great. She spent all the time needed to help me complete my resume. Much to my surprise she did not rush me off the phone but patiently waited to make sure that I had my resume complete..

I called in 6-6-16 at 8:30am and was lucky enough to speak to such a wonderful young man. He let me fully explain that I did start using your service but once I went to print I was logged out and couldnt ever get logged back in. I emailed this team hoping to have this resolved quickly but had no luck, it forced me to have to use another resume builder site. But the young man I spoke to today was very patient and understanding! He must have been trained good on how to speak and interact professionally with his customers! Kudos young man, Thank You again for assisting me. I wish I would of written his name down..

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
