BUYER BEWARE
Date: Feb 24 2026SummaryTERRIBLE WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. VERY DECEPTIVE. BUYER BEWARE. YOU WILL BE OUT OF POCKET WAY MORE THAN WHAT YOU THINK
PositiveI purchased a one off limited 7 day access for 0.99 usd. I only required the product for the one time hence why i purchased the lowest possible. Mind you it advertised as FREE conversion but obviously that is just one of many loop holes this company has found. A week late i was charged a further 49.99 usd for nothing. The fine print is not clear. As if you look at reviews you will see many of us caught out by this deception. PDF Guru refused to refund so I have had to now escalate this with my bank in the hopes of getting my $73 aud back. They refused a refund but offered me 2 years FREE access? WTF? Do not use this company.
NegativeWill not refund for services that you never purchased and didn't know would happen. Make random automated payments from your account. BUYER BEWARE

They rob you quietly and hide behind their ToS
Date: Apr 29 2026SummaryHow the hell can you be okay with making money like some two-bit crook? Have you no shame whatsoever?
You're gambling your entire reputation for a few lousy dollars?
This isn't business, man — this is straight-up highway robbery. You're a con artist, plain and simple.PositivePDF Guru stole $50 from me. No warning, no refund. Pure predatory billing. Avoid at all costs.

They renewed my subscription for $50 without sending any prior notification - no email, no reminder, nothing. By the time I noticed the charge, it was too late to cancel. The service was not used during the entire billing period.
When I contacted support and politely requested a refund as a goodwill gesture, they hid behind their terms of service and refused. Apparently, silently charging customers is perfectly fine in their book.
This is not how legitimate businesses operate. This is predatory billing designed to catch you off guard. They count on you not noticing.
I have initiated a chargeback through my payment provider. I am also reporting this practice to consumer protection authorities.
Stay far away from PDF Guru. There are dozens of free and honest alternatives that don't need to trick you to make money.Official PDF Guru Response -

Scammers
Date: May 01 2026SummaryI am compelled to speak out about this matter regarding this company’s billing practices. There have been multiple reports, including discussions on Reddit, from individuals who claim they were charged unexpectedly without prior notification.
In my case, funds were deducted from my account without any warning. However, when requesting a refund, the company quickly referred to its policies. This raises a critical concern: why are these policies not applied when it comes to notifying customers before deductions are made?
Transparency and proper consent should be standard in any business transaction. Deducting funds without clear communication undermines trust and exposes customers to unnecessary financial risk.
I strongly urge individuals and business owners to exercise caution when sharing their card details. If you have already provided your banking information, it is advisable to monitor your account closely and take the necessary steps to protect yourself.PositiveNothing good, they are a scammers, just make sure you block you bank card after dealing with them..
NegativeThey take advantage of people's card details, be careful...
