      Received 2 emals from noreply Jotform to fill out form because $399.90 had been paid by me for a Noton Symantec subscription/renewal. Wanted me to fill out a form.I have never ordered or considered ordering Norton software. I had not paid $399.90 to anyone. They were fishing for my personal information.Email had a local 816 area code for a call number.

      This party apparently received an email from a third party, asking them to fill out a form that was hosted on the Jotform platform. Jotform did not send the email. We have requested that this party provide us with the url/link of the form at issue, so we can remove it. Our terms of use prohibit using forms for scams.

      I have requested assistance repeatedly from customer service. I pay $30/month for ********************'s services; however, each time I have asked for assistance with their forms, I have been disappointed. They do not seem to understand their own system and simply ignore requests when they can't answer. The problem is that once a company has spent time and money using the registration forms - developing them, accessing data, etc - pivoting to another form company is difficult. Jotform takes advantage of this my offering poor customer service. I regret ever using this company.

      ************ is an IT company based out of ******** that has subscription to the jot forms portal for several years. The company uses this portal for its employees to submit their time sheets. The annual subscription charges are $190.00.On Oct 2023, jot forms charged $190.00 towards the annual subscription to the company's ***** ********** credit card. In November 2023 , jot forms billing, again charged $190.00 towards subscription charges.************ sent several email to the customer support to cancel the duplicate charge of $190.00 asking for a refund. There was no response from the customer support. *********************** does not have a customer service number wherein the customer can call and resolve any issues. Everything has to be done through emails ONLY.After several failed attempts of trying to connect with the support team through emails, ************ reached out to the ***** Fargo Credit Card dispute center and disputed the charges of $190.00 that was charged twice. **** accepted the dispute and credited $190.00 back to the company's account.Since them *********************** team has put the account under suspension. Attached is a screen shot of the email received from the jot forms support center.The relief that we are seeking are as follows: 1. Explanation for charging our account twice 2. Removing the suspension from our account and give us access to the portal. Our employees are not able to submit their time sheets and this is effecting our business.If you have any questions or need more information, please contact me at ********************* or call me at **************.Thank you for your time and attention in this matter.Sincerely,~ vidya

      We understand this customer's concerns, but there seem to be some misunderstandings.

      We have in fact communicated with the customer about these issues.  We have also investigated the issue, and found out that there are 4 Jotform accounts related to this user. This party appears to be under the impression that they have only one account, and perhaps that's why they expected only one charge. Branta / BrantaGroup have one account each, one of which was a free account. There are two other accounts also.

      The Branta account was a Bronze level account, hence the usual charge for that. That account was renewed per our terms of use, and when the customer disputed the renewal charge, as they say, their bank apparently did a charge-back. 
      The still-active BrantaGroup account was initially a Bronze level account, hence the usual charge for that also, but that account was later downgraded to a free account, so there are no charges associated with a free account.
      There was/are two other still-active Bronze level accounts associated with this party, with user names of vid******v5 and v*g, so there have been the usual charges for those accounts. 

      We hope this information helps the customer understand these things better, and we remain willing to communicate with them via ********************************** and/or in the current online discussion.

      We need only 2 accounts, one for ************ and one for *********** .

      If there more than that those need to be closed.

      Is Jot Forms saying that one account of ************ is active ?  If so which one is that ?  Wec are not able to access any account for ************.  Request Jot forms to share the log in credentials.

      Customer, please continue to communicate with us directly using the email address we have been using, and/or via the Jotform answers page. BBB is not set up to act as a messaging app between consumers and companies, so we can't use it for that.

      Thank you.

      I was scammed by a person offering me a job. Sent me a link to job form and I filled it out. My drivers License and SSN. This is unethical because anyone can creat a form on there then get all the info they want from someone. There are no logins or securities at all. This website should not exist.

      Business Response

      Date: 02/13/2024

      We understand this person's concerns, but the vast majority of Jotform's millions of users/customers use the website and their forms for legitimate purposes.

      Like all websites where people can post things that the public can see, there is a chance that someone could ask another person to submit their personal information, for illegitimate purposes.

      We appreciate this person bringing this matter to our attention. We will contact her and take steps to delete her information, if we have it.

      Had a gentleman call me and said he was sending it to be filled out and he was from anyday cash loans. Asked him why it went to my spam folder and he said they had no control over that. Said the form needed to be filled out to verify thatvI was the legit holder of my bank account and that I was not trying to open up a loan in someone else's name. I refused to fill it out. Said I was not comfortable doing that and he said it was my choice he was not forcing me.

      Unfortunately my business closed due to unforeseen circumstances right after renewing an annual subscription (on August 9 2023), so I asked for a refund. They refused to do so, because the 30 days have passed and they cannot do it "because it violates their terms and conditions" (in their words). Come on, this is well understood that when closing a business there is a lot going on and canceling a subscription is not the first thing on top of the mind to deal with, but they don't care. "It violates their terms", so they are simply bound and unable to help, really.

      Business Response

      Date: 11/20/2023

      We understand this person's concerns, and are sorry to hear about their business closing, but the requested refund is not consistent with our policies, which require that the refund request be made within 30 days of opening the account. The request in this case was long after that.

      We wish the person all the best in their future business endeavors.

      Complaint: 20842898

      I am rejecting this response because: The cancellation request was not "long" after 30 days, but one month after. After the service was not used since renewal. This practice of tricking in to renew for a full year and not refunding when it was not used at all by a company that consider themselves to be reputable should be strongly condemned. I would even consider trying a class action lawsuit.  This is over $250 for nothing!

      Jotform is a website where people can create their own custom forms, and then send the links to those forms to others to fill out and submit their information on the form. The forms appear on the Jotform website, but are not generated or offered by Jotform. Our terms of use prohibit the use of forms to scam others, so we have removed this form. Jotform is not responsible for the content of the form in question.

      Paid for a service that is not working. No useful or meaningful responses from their "customer support". They provide NO status updates other than "it has been escalated". There is no option to speak to a manager or anyone at the company. There is NO timeline provided for resolution of the issue. Recently upgraded from Silver to Gold - as when things work properly, it works well and issues are generally few. However, when the service breaks, it routinely takes months to weeks to get a meaningful resolution. At times they fail to provide update or resolution at all. Meanwhile, you'll have to find your own solutions, "support" is laughable and no help at all. Latest issue has been ongoing for 3 weeks, again with no progress or useful updates. "We're working in it" is not a MEANINGFUL update. This is not information I can use to update my field staff and it is not information I can share with partners to set an expectation of problem resolution. Due to this lack of communication alone I would NOT recommend them to anyone else. Do not build your systems around their services as when there is a problem - there is NO consideration or sense of urgency to resolve your concern. I would even accept a queue number. "Your issue is #1,239 out of ***** issues at this time." But NOTHING. No one is assigned to work with you and you get different canned responses from different people each time you check on the problem. Half the time they get the issue completely wrong. Abysmal service. Useless, patronizing and canned replies, just to be able to say "we're communicating with this person" - they're not. They're putting you off hoping you solve the problem yourself. I need someone to actually FIX the problem and tell me what happens next if they can't. The product is broken. I paid for a service. I am owed a functional product and meaningful response when there are issues. There HAS to be some kind of expectation for resolution.
