Hello,

Thank you for reaching out, and we sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you may have encountered while using our website. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify how our platform works.

Our service offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (which is free) and Full Access (a paid subscription).

The Basic Access account allows users to explore our builder and get a feel for the platform at no cost. With this option, you can create and edit your documents, but downloads are limited to plain text format and do not include access to premium templates or advanced features.

For those who need additional functionality, we offer a Full Access account for a small fee. This includes the ability to download, print, and email documents using our professionally designed templates, along with helpful resources such as cover letter support and interview preparation tools. The Full Access plan is valid for 14 days, during which you can make full use of the platform. If the account isn’t canceled within that period, it will automatically transition into a monthly subscription.

We’re always working to enhance the user experience and make our service as clear and helpful as possible. Should you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team

The site popped up as a free resume builder which makes having to pay rather annoying. But it was easy to use and the price is reasonable.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re truly sorry to hear about your frustration. We completely understand how disappointing it can feel to invest time into creating a resume, only to encounter unexpected payment requirements at the final step.

Our goal is to offer users the ability to explore and build their resumes freely using our platform, with the option to upgrade to access premium features such as downloading with professional templates. That said, we recognize that the transition to payment could be communicated more clearly, and your feedback is incredibly valuable in helping us improve this experience. If you need any help or have further questions, our support team is here for you.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team

I wish it was easier to go back and edit your work experience once you are toward the end of the process. Instead, you need to complete the process and go back in to change anything.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We understand how important it is to have a smooth and flexible editing process—especially when it comes to your work experience.

We’d like to clarify that our resume builder is designed to allow users to go back and make edits at any stage of the creation process, even before finalizing the document. You can click on any section in the progress bar or navigation menu to return and update your information without needing to restart or complete the entire process first.

That said, your feedback helps us identify areas where the user flow could be more intuitive. Thanks again for helping us improve. If you have any suggestions or questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!

Best regards,

I previously purchased my resume and in order to edit my name out of my resume I had to purchase the subscription again which did not seem fair to me for such a minor change considering I had already purchased it. Seems like a way to get every dollar you can from someone.
