Forced to enroll in an expensive subscription that should have been explained at the beginning of contact

Date of experience: December 14, 2024

over a year old

Hi,

Hope you are doing well. Registering to our website is completely free and so is editing and converting. If you would like to download or print the converted document, then an active subscription is needed. You can use our 14 days trial for $1.95 or $1.45 to download the document and if you are not satisfied with us then you can cancel it any time before 14 days and you’ll only pay once.

We provide a risk-free trial period during which full refunds are available for all charges within 30 days of the initial transaction date if cancellation is overlooked. Should cancellation not be initiated, billing will continue as per the agreed terms, which must be accepted prior to commencing the trial. Participation in the trial is voluntary, and charges are not imposed arbitrarily.

PDF Simpli works with a user based system in which every user must choose the trial plan where it is explained that the account is for 14 days and due to an automatic renewal upon not canceling within the trial period. Also, every customer receives these details in the email once the account is created. Lastly in order to activate your account you must have agreed with the terms and conditions where the auto renewal details are once again provided. We hope this can be of assistance.

Sincerely,

PDFSimpli

Enforced subscription
December 21, 2024

After ONE used of your service only, you continue charging monthly subscription even not using your service. This is abusive and not ethical. It is a way of getting money from people's pockets without doing anything

Entente avec PDFSimpli non-respectée
December 19, 2024

J'ai voulu résilier mon abonnement et être remboursée. J'étais dans mon droit puisque ça faisait quelques jours seulement et j'avais jusqu'à 30 jours pour annuler. J'avais payé avec Paypal et le remboursement se faisait donc sur Paypal. Voilà qu'une notice m'indique que le remboursement a été effectué et pourtant, un remboursement de.30$ seulement au lieu de 57.95$ figure dans mon compte en banque relié à Paypal. Je n'ai jamais eu de problème ni avec Paypal ni avec mon compte en banque. Alors, conclusion, je vous attribue la faute.
J'attends toujours des explications.

I tried a pdf conversion to word which requires OCR. Unfortunately the pdf did not get converted to editable texts. The texts are as picture square box. So, why do I need to pay this as such conversions are happening with free.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concern regarding OCR functionality. At the moment, OCR (Optical Character Recognition) is not available on PDFSimpli, which is why scanned documents or images may not convert into editable text. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

Our team is constantly working to improve our platform, and we greatly value your input. If you have further questions or need assistance with other features, please don’t hesitate to contact us at 1-844-898-1076 or via email at [email protected].

You stole from me.
December 16, 2024

I purchased a 14 day trial to download one item. The cost was $1.45
30 days later you took $49.99 in a subscription fee. I did not subscribe knowingly. You defrauded my intention to a 14-day trial. You are scammers.
I filed a complaint which was denied on your end.
Shame on you.

This was advertised as a free service, but I had to pay $1.95 to get my download. Then, the download was terrible--totally unusable. I'll just have to recreate my PDF by hand, apparently. I'd really like a refund.

Hi,

Thank you for the 3 star rating. Our website is free to use! To edit and convert your document it's free but if you want to do any downloads you need to have a subscription. We have an initial trial for $1.95 or $1.45. You can try out PDF Simpli for 14 days with unlimited access or use our Delayed option where you can get one document after 24 hours free of charge.

Please send an email to our Technical Department at [email protected] and explain further so we can assist you. They can help you with any technical issues you may experience with our website.

Salve,

Grazie per aver condiviso con noi il suo feedback. Tutti i nostri servizi sono in abbonamento. Abbiamo lavorato molto duramente per aggiungere più funzionalità al nostro prodotto e offrire il miglior servizio possibile. Potete provare la nostra opzione “Ritardo” e attendere 24 ore per il download di un documento, gratuitamente. Oppure pagare per i nostri 14 giorni di prova (per 1,45 o 1,95 dollari) per ottenere immediatamente il file, a seconda del piano scelto. L'opzione da 1,95 dollari vi dà accesso completo e conversione illimitata per 14 giorni. Dopo aver provato il prodotto, se non si desidera continuare, è possibile chiamare o andare online per annullare prima della fine della prova o cambiare l'abbonamento con un piano diverso. Se non viene effettuata alcuna cancellazione o cambio di piano, si passa al nostro piano di abbonamento di base a rinnovo automatico per 49,95 dollari.

Abbiamo diversi piani a seconda delle vostre esigenze, contattateci per telefono al numero 1-844-898-1076 o per e-mail all'indirizzo [email protected].

Hello Linda,

Thank you for your feedback. I’ve reviewed your account, and I see that you cancelled your subscription on November 27th. However, this was after your billing date on November 7th. As our subscriptions automatically renew at the start of each billing cycle, cancellations must be completed before the renewal date to avoid charges.

We understand how frustrating unexpected charges can be, but I hope this helps clarify the timeline. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out—we’re happy to assist!

Best regards,
