The company's customer service approach is characterized by a mix of commendable support and significant concerns regarding billing practices. Many customers praise the helpfulness, professionalism, and genuine nature of the representatives, noting positive experiences in resolving issues quickly. However, a troubling trend emerges with numerous complaints about unauthorized charges and difficulties in canceling subscriptions, leading to feelings of frustration and distrust. While the quality of the service, particularly in resume building, is acknowledged, the company's billing transparency and communication practices require urgent improvement to enhance overall customer satisfaction and trust.

We’d like to clarify that our basic access accounts allow you to create and download a plain text version using our examples and tips, Walter.

However, if you would like to download, print or email a professionally formatted version of your new document using our copyrighted templates in a PDF or Word format you’ll need to subscribe first for a small fee which we offer a 14-day trial option.

In addition, we do grant a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee if you are not satisfied with the end result!.

Site on Google stated free resume. Then after you go through it all, expecting to just print, you have to pay. Misleading!

Our website offers a basic access account completely free which allows you to download a plain text version, Angie.

However, upon finishing the document, we also give the option of continuing with our premium features if you are satisfied with the end result. This gives you the ability to print, email or download your documents using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the Basic Access account.

In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee if you are not completely satisfied!

Make it CLEAR that you have to pay for the resume before I spend time and effort making it. By the end, I feel liked I got scammed.

I love it
June 1, 2021

I love it. My only problem is my career field is a little different and you don't have the templates I need.
In fashion styling, theater, and film, we do lists of credits, we only need 1 date, we don't do big descriptions, its really job title, production name, production company and date. I have tried to make one of your templates work, but its a long resume now.

Excellent Customer Service
June 1, 2021

I first used LiveCareer in 2013 and signed up again this year in May having found myself back in the job market. I find the resources to be extremely helpful, from resume and cover letter writing, to career tips and job search leads. Additionally, the customer service is always top notch. The reps thrive to help and don't try to oversell you anything. Highly recommend LiveCareer to anyone in the market looking for work.
