Design options are good looking, effective and professional. Suggested content for bullet points etc is super helpful and smart. A better experience than I anticipated. Really easy to do! Thanks!

This is very easy to use; however, it would be nice if you said out of the gate that there would be a fee to obtain the final product.

They deducted money on my account without my consent and later promised to refund my money, however instead they made a second deduction on my account and claimed that they did not do it. These are typical thieves. Run away from such.
They claimed to have cancelled my account, however it is even very active.

We’re sorry to hear that you have not had a positive experience with our company, Andrew.

To explain, when users sign up for our 14-day trial, we're very transparent in disclosing the subscription policy in several areas from the sell page to the order confirmation page, in addition to the payment confirmation email as well. That said, we'd greatly appreciate an opportunity to change your mind about us.

At your earliest convenience, please contact us directly at [email protected] please make sure to include your account information.

Honestly, amazing site and would not change a thing on the technical side of things. That said, I dislike your business plan, and nearly abandoned my resume simply due to the fact that you are subscription based. I would gladly pay $10 or even $20 per resume, but as someone who makes a resume about once every 3 years, the subscription was not enticing in the least. Years ago, I used a competitor to create a resume and they also forced me into a subscription, and despite my cancelling with them same day, they continued to bill me monthly for over a year before I noticed. I'm not saying you should forgo the subscription strategy altogether, but if you also provided a one-time fee for folks like myself, this would have been a 5 star review.

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, Jeremy.

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!.
