On June 2,2014, I used your site to build a resume and told to pay $1.95. I paid through my credit card. I just used the site once and I dont eve remember my log in details so I did not bother opening the site anymore. On June 16, I was billed again $39.95 for the same transaction. This is not fair as I did not sign for membership and was not informed that I will be billed after 14 days.
Please let me know how I get my refund.

They are terrible. It is an obvious scam. The resume builder is garbage and the $2 is just a lure to get you into a $40 per month bill for services you will never use. Complete garbage.

I needed this site to draw up a resume for a potential job. Everything sounded great. It was suppose to be "free". So I spent a while tweeking and tuning my resume to my liking and then i was hit with a very modest $3.95 (i think) one time charge to finish the resume at the end. I thought what the heck, it wasnt that much money and i really liked the way the resume looked. So i paid it. What i didnt know was that i was automatically signed up on a monthly plan that would be paid through my visa card. I was charged $45.23 on February 20. I was charged $45.99 on March 20. I was charged $44.94 on April 21. I was charged $44.41 on May 16. And finally, i was charged $44.32 on June 13 for a grand total of $224.32 that this company has taken from me. Did I mention that I very rarely used the website? Maybe one or two times.

It says it is free, but it is not. They are not all they are cracked up to be. Double checked versus another site and found a ton of grammatical errors.

Answer: Our free account gives you the opportunity to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchaser ability to print, email, or download your resume and cover letters are features included in our paid subscription and not listed as a feature of the free account.

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
