Live Career customer service
May 27, 2016

Maria was a great representative. She was more than happy to take care of my cancellation with live career and went ahead and cancelled my previous two transactions immediately. She apologized on the behave of the previous representative who did not cancel my request two months ago. We need more people like maria as she just made my day.

So I thought I signed up for a free month. Turns out after that they were charging me monthly at a rate of $9.95 per week! Their unlimited monthly subscription is only $3 a month! Plus I never received a receipt for these payments so I had no idea. I must have spent hundreds of dollars with LiveCareer until I noticed. I'll be warning everyone to stay away from them.

Cover Letter Samples
May 26, 2016

As a job seeker I typically get stuck in the application process when the employer is asking for a cover letter. The build your cover letter feature was an excellent tool to assist in creating a professional and job specific letter. Just a note, there is a fee but it was well worth the 1.95 it cost me to get this expert help.

Thank you. It was easily accessed, however, I was in a hurry and didn't list my jobs in the order according to year. I wanted to move the jobs around on my resume, although, I couldn't see where I could move them around.

Please, whatever you do, do not use this website to create a resume. You think they are charing you $2 to create a resume, then they start automatically billing your credit card every month. You get no notification that they are doing this, whatsoever, until you start noticing unusual billing on your credit card. As well, they change their billing name so it shows up as a different name on your credit card statement every month. My teenager used this site to make a resume, then my credit card was charged $50 a month for the next 7 months before I caught up with them. They WOULD NOT REIMBURSE ME A DIME, even though they took payment from a minor. This is a huge scam! They provide absolutely zero service for the debits they take out of your account.

While explaining my situation with Louis Solanto, he listened to me and took the information that I gave him to fix my account. I had called last month to cancel my account but it was never done. Louis was able to find out what had happened and why it wasn't cancelled. I am over joyed that he was able to help me.

This LiveCareer site is a fraud. I signed up on Jan 18 for an one time resume for 1 dollar.

Then they quietly charged me 39.80 on February 3, March 17, March 30, May 12 and May 24. Even if the renewal starts 14 days later, they overcharged me. They never send email letting you know the account is about to renew like normal companies do. They don't even send you an receipt letting you know every month after you are charged.

That's 200 dollars lost.

When I contacted them they are only willing to reverse the extra error charge and one refund. As a poor college student, I feel very angry and would file complaints on every place I know of.

The attendant was very efficient and kind. I was able to cancel my account quick. The problem is as I explained to her I did not want to become a member, I only signed for the free 14 days trial. The charge was being made in a card that is a brazilian card so I did not realize it. I did the trial in september 26, so the first 39,80 charge was probably on oct 11. She kindly reimbursed me 3 months, but I was charged for 5 months and I would really appreciate a return of the other 5 months. My account number is *******, Ana Paula Santos Lima

Upon speaking with your Representative, Aristides, I found that he was very patient with me and extremely helpful. I recommend that Aristides, be allowed to teach a class in how to be patient with the customer, as well as, being helpful. He was simply outstanding!

Account Cancellation
May 23, 2016

Overall good. Sometimes the response took to long as I am at work and trying to multi-task and would get side tracked. My expectation as a consumer for Live Chat services like this is I can see a response being created within 10 - 15 seconds of my response.

Also, I probably would have kept the service if it were about $9.95/month but $40 was too high in my estimation for my personal perceived value of it.
