    Scam

    Date: Feb 18 2024
    Summary

    They will charged your cc for the "free trial" period and automatically charge for a month even i tried to cancel a day before the expiration. They said they will issue a refund and sent a message that the refund has been issued but no refund transaction found and my bank confirmed that no other transaction from this company after my cc was charged. The just response my feedback that i need to contact them to resolve the issue, but it's been almost 2 months no but they did not response my messages.

    Positive

    Quick to response when you leave à bad feedback but slow to nothing to take an action. Scammer. No response, no refund issued.

    Negative

    Refund my money not just a message that you issued a refund. Issue a refund on my account.

    LIARS, CROOKS and THIEVES!

    Date: Apr 19 2024
    Summary

    I used their service to convert one document, one time, paid the $1.50 fee, that should have been the end of it, then two weeks later, a $40 charge showed up on my credit card. I never agreed to this. Apparently, your "plan" (like I ever had one) renews automatically at the end of the "trial period" and you're charged. I'm sorry, but any company that uses this tactic where the consumer is charged when they take no action is deceptive, sneaky and dishonest. As a consumer, I should be required to take some action to trigger a transaction. They are taking advantage of the probability that people won't read every last line of text in their terms and conditions, particularly the fine print. Companies that do this are SCUM. They are thieves. The only reason they got one star is because giving them zero was not allowed. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this company and any others that use this auto-charge/auto-renewal GARBAGE. LIARS, CROOKS AND THIEVES IS WHAT THEY ARE!

    Positive

    Nothing. I regret ever finding this company online. How could I like anything about doing business with a company that is deceptive, sneaky and dishonest?

    Negative

    They stole from me. They are dishonest, deceptive, sneaky and not to be trusted. They are snakes. Stay away from them.

    Good Product Scammers

    Date: May 03 2024
    Summary

    It's a scamming application which they attract customer with the fact you can use it for free for a free trial but you are still getting charged and even after you inscribed for the 14 days you will still get charged monthly without notification, permission or invoice. The support invoke all sorts of reasons and even after I show them with screenshots I did not receive any emails or notifications from them they still bluntly ignore it and straight up refuse to refund your money that was taken without permission. Simply scammer practice.

    Positive

    Very good in helping you modify the PDF. Easy to use and it gets the job done that's how they get you to pay for the 1.95$ "free trial"

    Negative

    The free trial is not free you are still getting charged $1.95 and after if you pay with your debit card/credit card they charge you without your permission or notification and they don't even leave you an Invoice for what they are charging you.

    Total scam.

    Date: Apr 18 2024
    Summary

    I worked on the pdf 10 -15 pages long I made changes after I saved it to my desktop I found out all the jobs I did were not saved I repeated them again and again and again, same thing same results.
    Waste of precious time.

    Positive

    Nothing to like about you can get this type of garbage on google pretty much every other second.

    Negative

    Accessibility and work on it can be challenging I wasted weeks on this junk to fix their issues on my files.

    Make sure you look at the fine-print

    Date: Dec 02 2024
    Summary

    Their customer service was not helpful at all. I ended-up paying $400 for a $2 PDF (granted, I should have caught the monthly charges sooner, but I didn't think I was signed up for anything). Near as I can tell, this is their business model... Provide a $2 service and then start charging for a subscription that nobody wanted

    Positive

    Basic functional program, but nothing to set it apart from the competition. I had to complete a simple task and the program got that done

    Negative

    I needed to work on ONE PDF document. I did what I needed to do and paid my $2 and thought my experience was done. However, I started getting charged a $39/month subscription fee that I most certainly did NOT want and did NOT think I was signed up for

    They sneakily signed me up for a subscription

    Date: Jul 31 2024
    Summary

    Shady way to charge customers.

    Positive

    N/A.

    Negative

    I paid $1.45 for a one-time PDF editing service, only to later discover they had sneakily signed me up for a subscription. The small print at the bottom mentioned it would become a subscription, but I didn't notice it. Fourteen days later, they charged my card $39.95 without sending an invoice or reminder that the trial period was ending. They seem to rely on customers forgetting so they can continue charging monthly. Fortunately, I regularly audit my credit card transactions and caught it. This is a very shady business practice. Customers, beware!

    Summary

    It is unethical business. How could you charge customers money without permission? I’m going to file a claim!

    Positive

    None I can think of. I did not use its service at all. This is a shame they charge me 40 dollars without my permission.

    Negative

    Charge me $40 after a month without my authorization. This is disgusting and a scam. Try to call them but no one answered my phone call.

    Grrr. Hated it until...

    Date: Feb 09 2024
    Summary

    Good stuff.

    Positive

    Needed to convert a complex PDF document to Word docx. I have not found any free products that do it well and easy. Found PDF Simpli "sponsored" by Google and seemed to be free. Went to their site and converted my document that seemed to be free, but to download it I had to pay. SCAM I say! But I really needed the document and a trial was only $1.95 so I paid. I was very surprised but the quality of the conversion was excellent and saved me days worth of extra work. It was easy to cancel the trial too. I'd def use this app again and highly recommend it.

    Negative

    Free-ness was misleading in the beginning, but no big deal to pay a small amount for a good product that saves massive amounts of time.

    Inappropriate Customer Service

    Date: Aug 21 2024
    Summary

    Try UDPF.com and see a comparison of services. PDF Simpli is not as accommodating as they want the public to believe. But it is serviceable.

    Positive

    I got my intended work done which was short, brief, and 3 pages. Easily converted to Word. I would have stayed with them if it wasn’t for the extremely poor, disrespectful, and rude customer service.

    Negative

    Rep was rude, loud and aggressive in voice on the phone. Hung up on me as a full paying customer. Inexcusable. Never hang up on a customer, pass the call to a supervisor. But hanging up on the customer was the only childish way he knew how to handle the conversation.

    Summary

    dishonest company. I would never continue with a company that used dishonest tactics to get money out from me. As far as I can say, that will be the last money they see from me again.

    Positive

    you can edit pdfs which is what i needed so it did the job..... BUT its not worth £49.00 being stolen from your account under the guise of small print.

    Negative

    being charged £49.00 after paying £1.99, not obvious that I was going to be charged £49.00

    Summary

    Horrible-this is a truly crooked company-- got caught on a trial, then charged for the subscription. Awesome business concept--take peoples money for no service.

    Positive

    Good at misrepresenting charges. Purchased a trial and then got caught in recurring charges. My credit card alerted and then the company refused to refund me.

    Negative

    Scam--they will begin charging card for monthly subscription. The pdf was ok, nothing great.

    Lies

    Date: May 16 2023
    Summary

    Atrocious. There is absolutely no need for this site to charge people anything at all. If you got scammed as well, then my condolences.

    Positive

    Nothing. Why isn't it free to edit PDFs??? It seems like such a straightforward task, I'd even be happy if I could drag text boxes onto the PDF. But no.

    Negative

    I saw this site advertising saying that you could annotate PDFs "100% free". Just a straight-up lie. They try to charge you for what should be a super simple and free service after you've already gone through the work of annotating the document.

    Hello, Thank you for leaving us a review. Registering to our website, editing and converting is completely free and so is downloading the text version of the document in our editor. To download the file in all other formats or print the converted document, then an active paid subscription is needed, which you can cancel at any time. Our product is very competitively priced when compared to our competitors. To try our product for free only for one file, you have to choose the “Delayed” option and wait 24 hours for your document.

    Summary

    I think it's a scam because I pay for this crap.

    Positive

    To change the text in a pdf document I lost an hour.

    The text was not changed by me but by an employee through the chat. The application/website doesn't do its job, you waste time, modify and when you save you see that nothing has actually changed.

    Paid a single fee to use the product. Two weeks later was charged 39 dollars for a subscription that I never agreed to, and that wasn't advertised. Scam.

    Date: Jun 01 2023
    Summary

    Atrocious. Scam. Charged for a subscription I didn't sign up for. I have checked other reviews and review websites and they seem to do this as a standard procedure.

    I'm very careful with subscriptions and checked that I wasn't signing up for one at the time.

    Positive

    Nothing. Scam. Avoid like the plague. Check other websites and reviews - this has happened to many people in exactly the same way.

    Negative

    Scam. Avoid like the plague. They charge you for subscriptions you didn't agree to.
