  I tried contacting PropStream before the 7-day free trial is over and they charged my card automatically. They are scamming people and trying to reach them does not help. Their customer service number ************** does not wok and their customer support email bounces back saying the mail is not delivereable. The bounce back email also states I *** not have an account with them. I have taken screen shots of my account with them and charge and looks like they are running a free-trial scam. I will be reporting them to the concerned authorities because clearly they are running a scam. They purposely do not provide a account # to your account because they will claim I do not have an account with them

  Dear BBB and Mr. ************ 05/10/2025, Mr. ***** created his free 7-day trial account. 7 days later Mr. ****** account was charged $99. This charge was included in our Terms of Service during sign-up, of which Mr. ***** acknowledged and accepted when creating his account.
  On the 8th day, a few hours after Mr. ****** account was charged, he reached out to us via phone but was unable to speak with someone in our customer support department.
  Mr. ***** also attempted an outreach via email and stated we bounced his email back. This is proven false by the images he provided to BBB.Those images show that he was sent an email from the address of ******************************* his own domain advised to him that his email address of ******************************* was disabled and cannot be found, and/or is unable to receive mail. That explains why his email bounced. There is an issue on his end, not ours.
  Despite Mr. ****** own email not working and him writing a negative BBB review without allowing us a real chance to assist him, we have granted his refund and processed a payment of $99 back to his card on file. We hope that Mr. ***** will return back one day and if he ever has a question and/or issue that he contacts our support team so we can assist him.

  Again I know my ******************** address exists and and is not disabled. Your theme as a business is pretty apparent here. DECEPTION DECEPTION DECEPTION and shift blame on the people you try to use your product on a free trial basis

  Shift the blame on the person who signed up because they acknowledged a legal document. All your free-trail users will acknowledge your so called legal jargon because they are not legal experts to get trial. You want to hide behind a veil of so called acknowledgment and charge people go ahead. Go ahead and see how long that business model lasts because people will know what you trying hide behind. DECEPTION. 

  You dont even give them opportunity to cancel within the 7-day free trial period. You deceptively show 7-day free trial because its not a trial its more like we will charge you $99 anyways and we will shift the blame on you if you complain.  And if you think people will believe your customer service works, I want them to sign up the free trial and see how many people actually reach a live customer agent and see if they can cancel their 7-day free trial. I will give you props on one thing. Great job on deceptively having people sign an acknowledgement and s******* them over a so called 7-day free trial

  Dear BBB and Mr. ***************** requested a refund and we provided it. Our refund policy. You called us once, did not leave a message, so we unfortunately were not able to speak with you. We are not trying to blame you or any customer; however the email screenshot you provided proves that your email was rejected by your own email service provider and was NEVER sent or delivered to us. 
  
  Its unfortunate that you would rather put energy into negative messages on BBB instead of calling and talking to us. We treat our customers concerns seriously, and again, we have provided the refund you sought. 
  
  We hope you find what youre looking for in a property record provider, and wed be glad to have you back using PropStream and provide you with a $50 marketing credit. 
  
  Use this conversation as your proof that we offered this to you.

  I had just signed up for propstream today on 04/09/2025 and it asked for credit card info in order to opt in for a 7-day trial. I input my cash app card but it does not take it due to no funds; I had $1 in there and a temp charge should be no more than that. Then I try my second card and it goes through then redirects me saying there is already an account in my name. Mind you propstream doesn't ask for personal information so how can there be an account in my name already if it is not in my email? Now there is a $99 charge on my account. When I try to login with the email I signed up with it tells me my login is invalid and my email can't be found.

  Dear BBB and Mr. ************** 04/09/2025, Mr. ******* reached out three times (twice by email and once by phone) to inform us that he was falsely charge $99 and unable to create a 7-day free trial account.

  
   He also reported our system was giving him a message that he already had an account. Mr. ******* stated that we charged his card $99 for a monthly subscription fee. After research from our customer service team we explained to him that first, he did not have an account, so it was impossible for us to charge him. Second, the account he was associated with as an additional user had not been active since 2022. Third, we did not have a payment on record from that account or him. Lastly, we cannot have a payment on file or a charge for a customer who does not have an account with us.

  
  We would love to assist Mr. ******* but he does not have an account with us. We explained this to Mr. ******* during his last call to us and he acknowledged that he understood so we are confused as to why he created a BBB complaint for a company that he does not have an account with or a charge that did not originate from us.

  I was on a free trial. I stopped using the system well before the free trial. It was never relayed that I needed to PHYSICALLY cancel the subscription, as usually various systems ask you first before a trial ends to permit you to continue with their platform. Unfortunately, PropertyStream is unscrupulous and goes right ahead and charges you and doesn't tell you that they are charging you. I tried to bring that to the billing specialist's attention, and they rudely hung up on me. I talked to another billing specialist (*****) to notify them about the rude hang-up, and they left me on hold for an extended period, only to tell me that they are not wholly refunding me.

  Dear BBB and Mr. ******************** 8/13/2025, Mr. ****** created his trial account. During signup, Mr. ****** agreed to our Terms of Use (ToU) which requires acknowledgement and more importantly selecting a checkbox he was aware that after the free 7-day trial he would be charged $99 immediately and this charge would continue each month unless he contacted us to cancel his account. We require this step for every customer account created to ensure every customer knows and understands: (1) when their billing starts after the 7-day trial and (2) how much they will be charged monthly. We also provide our customer support phone number and our support email so that (or any customer) can cancel their account either before the 7-day trial ends or at any point during a $99/month billing cycle.

  
  Mr. ****** acknowledged these things during signup yet never contacted us to cancel for over 6 months until 3/11/2025. Once he contacted us,we cancelled his account and despite him not contacting us for 6 months we provided a full 3 months of refunds as a courtesy. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide further refunds as he had a responsibility to contact us to cancel his account since he accepted and acknowledged that he understood when his billing would begin, how much he would be charged, and when.

  Signed up for service was nothing that was advertised I immediately asked for cancellation and refund and they said no. I asked for cancellation within minutes

  Dear BBB and Mr. ************* 02/12/2025, Mr. **** reinstated his account for $99 to re-gain access to our property data. Four minutes later he saved a list of property data and exported that list while also exporting a previous list of property data he had saved prior to his account going inactive. The next day on 02/13/2025, Mr. **** reached out to our customer service to cancel his account and requested a full refund for the $99 charge while claiming he had not exported any data. This was blatantly false as Mr. ****** account shows a timeline of his exports including both aforementioned property data exports. Due to Mr. ****** intentional property data exports we are unable to provide a refund because we provided him the service and data we agreed to provide that he paid for. We are not able to re-collect exported data, so providing him with a refund would be giving him free services which is not fair to any business.

  My phone number was listed in their database, which it should not be. I do not do business with this company or even in real estate. Due to the incorrect listing I have been receiving an unreasonable amount of cold calls. I have contacted the company and their response was that they are not accountable for the information they sell to their customers. I have asked them to remove me from their database of sellable data and to contact customers who have purchased my phone number and correct their mistake. They have not made any statements indicating they will correct the defective data they sold to their customers or make any effort to correct any part of the issue. All I was told was that my email will be forwarded and 2 emails saying they take no accountability.

  Ive been using Propstream for over 3 months by now and they recently just locked me out of my account stating that I cant verify my information so I couldnt regain access. But the *** also stated that I cant cancel my subscription since I couldnt verify my information too. So they keep charging me and wont allow me to cancel my subscription or use the product

  Dear BBB and *** *************** 08/10/2024, *** ****** account was flagged by our compliance department for suspicious activity. All suspended accounts are required to call in to verify the account holders information and assist them with removing a suspension. During a call to verify *** ***** account, it was revealed that it was, in fact, not *** **** calling, but instead one of his team members pretending to be *** ***** This was a blatant violation of our Terms of Use policy. This forced us to take additional steps to secure *** ****** account. Furthermore, that team member called in multiple times posing as *** **** and failed our verification process.
  
  We are open to providing a refund but *** **** himself needs to call in to verify his identity and account within the next 2 weeks (by October 9, 2024). We look forward to working with the customer to resolve this issue.

  So these guys are hilarious. Apparently in tiny little letters in their terms they state that one cannot have more than one account. I had 6 and had used them for over 4 years. Never had an issue with them or the other way around. One day they banned all my accounts. Fine. whatever. The problem I created an account on the 12th and they charged me their monthly dues of $99 but banned me a day later. You might be thinking oh they returned me my money...NO Not only that but all the other accounts which I had paid for. They didnt refund me my money or prorate me a refund for the days left in the account. I AM DISGUSTED BY THESE SCAMMERS. I called them 3 times and they gave me a refund on 1 account thats it just 1. SCAM SCAM SCAM. STAY AWAY!!!My account is ***** ******************************** hope you do the right thing

  Dear BBB and ******************,

  Three days prior to Mr. ******** BBB complaint, August 13, he created (an additional) account. That account was flagged on August 14 due to the 5 previous accounts he held which were not in compliance with our Acceptable Use Policy. That policy is part of our Terms of Use which states the client will not impersonate another person, act as another entity without authorization, or create multiple accounts.

  Our Terms of Use explicitly states that if a customer violates the agreement, gives we have the right to immediately terminate their license and at our sole discretion, provide a pro-rata refund (minus time and data accessed during the term of the subscription). ****************** agreed to these terms not once but six times total in order to create the multiple accounts he held before we took steps to halt his breach of our Terms of Use.

  In his BBB complaint, ****************** openly acknowledged that he violated our Terms of Use for years by using multiple accounts, yet we were still willing to work with him. On August 16, we provided a refund for one of his accounts on in the amount of $126, and also allowed him to retain access to two of his other accounts since, despite his violation of our Terms if Use, he has been a loyal customer.

  I attempted to cancel the service but was still charged. I never used the service and had trouble cancelling so issued a stop payment with my credit card. The company still charged me and refuses to refund despite not using the product.

  Dear BBB and *************,

  ************** created his account May 25th, 2024. The following day, May 26, ************** contacted us through an invalid contact form to cancel his account. That form explicitly states "Cancelation requests will NOT be processed through this form". How to cancel an account is outlined during the account signup process with a mandatory customer acknowledgement before account creation. Despite *************** disregard in reading the form and following the directions to cancel, we reached out to him to confirm his request and process his cancellation on May 26. This was 6 days before his charge processed. Unfortunately, our agent was unable to contact ************** nor did he respond to our outreach.

  6 days later on June 2, the $99 charge was processed because ************* still had NOT responded to our outreach to process his cancellation request. Instead, he contacted his credit card provider to flag the charge as fraud. Almost 3 weeks later on July 25, ************* finally contacted us and asked for a refund, but we had already began our fraud response to his credit card provided due to him reporting the charge as fraud. Unfortunately, we do not provide refunds while a fraud/chargeback issue is pending.

  We won the chargeback/fraud case with My ******* credit card provider because they acknowledged that ************* did not follow instructions for cancellation and ignored our outreach to process his request. They also agreed that customers should always try to work with a company for a refund, and should only use credit card disputes and/or charges as fraud as a last resort NOT a first step.

  Unfortunately, a full refund is not an option because we have won the credit card dispute, but as a measure of Goodwill we are willing to offer a 50% refund of $49.50. ************* holds some responsibility in this matter by when ignoring our attempts to reach and help him.

  I started a 7-day trial with this company in January of 2023, in an attempt to help my parents with their business. I called and canceled the account beforehand and was assured that it was canceled, and I didn't think about it again. While reviewing some of my bills, I noticed that they have been charging me monthly since. I called to inform them of the issue and they claim that they have no record of the call, and offered one month of restitution (which is unacceptable). They once again did not email me to confirm that my account was closed (I had to follow up with them), and they have never emailed me about the account being opened, cancellation terms, billing, or for any other reason (This obviously allows them to predate on customers when they inevitably look for a refund). This is illegal in the state of **, as by law businesses are required to send confirmation of the automatic renewal or continuous service offer terms, cancellation policy and information regarding how to cancel. in a manner that is capable of being retained by the consumer. Additionally, there is a requirement that a consumer be able to cancel their subscription exclusively online, however, Propstream offers no such opportunity to its customers and requires a call or email to cancel their subscription, despite being able to enroll online.

  Dear BBB and ************************,
  
  We reviewed **************************** account and found that aside from ************************ reaching out on May 31, 2024, to cancel his account, we have not received any communication from him prior. If ************************ can provide us any additional information or proof that he contacted prior to May 31, 2024, we are happy to review his case further.
  
  Secondly, ************************ was advised during signup in two different places of our cancellation policy and billing policy. Once during the confirmation of payment, which also includes our cancellation policies, as well prior to submitting his sign up. ************************ was also provided with our Terms of Service that clearly outlines how customer will be billed and how they can easily cancel by contacting PropStream.
  
  In Mr. *********** case, unfortunately we have no record of any cancellation attempts being made by him nor any attempts to contact PropStream so we offered a refund of the last billed charge; however, as a courtesy to ************************ we are willing to process an additional 2 months for a total of 3 billed months refund. We believe these additional courtesy refunds show our willingness to work with ************************ despite having no record of any attempts by him to cancel his account by contacting us.

  Good Afternoon,
  
  I completely missed the last email on 7/6, however the issue hasn't been resolved. Propstream only gave me 2 more months because my bank forced them to. They also didn't communicate with me in any way. I'd like to re-open this, if at all possible, to reach a resolution, as I will likely be filing a civil suit sans a satisfactory outcome.

  Business Response

  Dear BBB and ************************,

  PropStreams position remains the same. We responded to his BBB complaint on June 6 and *********************** did not respond so that this case was closed. ************************ has shown that he disregarded his own BBB complaint giving merit to our position on his lack of communication if he cannot respond to the BBB complaint that he created.

  To recap what occurred with ************************ and PropStream, he did not communicate with after our request to provide additional information or proof that he contacted us prior to May 31, 2024. If he does we are happy to review his case further.

  Secondly, ************************ was advised during signup in two different places of our cancellation policy and billing policy. Once during the confirmation of payment, which also includes our cancellation policies, as well prior to submitting his sign up. ************************ was also provided with our Terms of Service that clearly outlines how customer will be billed and how they can easily cancel by contacting PropStream.

  Actually, I was moving, so I wasn't on top of my email, but I clearly saw the follow-up afterwards.
  
  But, since Propstream wants to try to use that as some sort of justification for their illegal activity, the gloves can come off.
  
  The unadulterated gall to say someone doesn't communicate properly when they haven't sent a single email to my inbox confirming any sort of trial, account activation OR cancellation (even the second time around) not only explains why I thought I had successfully cancelled my trial via a phone call, but also allows them to claim whatever they want. Notice there has been no mention of this from them. Moreover it is ILLEGAL for them not to do-so to consumers in the state of ******** and its also illegal that you can't cancel your account via the same method used to sign up.
  
  Look at all these other complaints, its pretty clear that this "3-month courtesy refund" is their modus operandi when they are eventually called out for their predatory behavior. In my case, it simply isn't an acceptable restitution on over a year's worth of predation, nor does it show any signs of being "willing to work with" me. I will be exploring my legal options.

  2/12/24 I did a Free-Trial with Propstream for 7 days. I then was attempted a charge of $99 by propstream before i had even woke up on the 7th day, in which my Bank notified me. I declined this transaction attempt and tried to cancel my account on *********************** website. The website keeps all your information but doesn't allow you to log-in UNLESS you pay to start service, THEN your allowed back into your account to attempt the cancellation process. 2 days later, Im thinking that Propstream just cancelled my account theirselves, since they wont allow me to. Nah. I got ANOTHER transaction attempt in the middle of the night 3:00 A.M. by guess who. Tried to IMMEDIATELY get on my computer & log-in to try and cancel this account again, but still not allowed!I will be reporting my bank to cancel my card altogether because of Propstreams Scam tactics of attempting to charge you AFTER the free-trial is done & your not allowed back into the account to cancel or delete the account altogether. If you are a *********** Investor, I'd advise you to stay as far away from Propstream as possible. Most of the info. they charge for is just public information or can be found on other free services. These guys are scandalous & predatory. Propstream, when you see this and try your bs attempt at calling me a liar & denying all of this, how bout cancelling my account and stop trying to rip people off. Weirdos

  Dear BBB and ******************,
  We reviewed ****************** account and found that he signed up for his free trial on 2/9/24 and acknowledged and accepted that he would be charged $99 in 7 days after signup. He logged on several times and utilized the free trial service. His free trial ended on 2/17 which is when he was charged the $99. Unfortunately, ****************** made no effort to cancel his account by reaching out to our customer support team via phone or email or by way of our easy self-service option within our software. Had ***************** contacted us, we would have been more than willing to assist in cancelling his account. Instead, ****************** has chosen to create false claims and instead disparage us negatively. Despite ***************** behavior, we have closed his account so no further ******** can occurs.  We would still love to have ***************** as a customer and if he so chooses to return to PropStream in the future, we encourage him to reach out to our customer support team for assistance with any questions regarding billing or anything else. We are more than happy to help and assist him and all our customers.
