I went online to cancel my paid subscription. They offered me a promotion, then charged me full price. I tried to get a resolution with customer service. I only wanted the $13 they owed me. But they just keep offering me a promotional rate in the future. I have multiple emails stating a refund of the charges is not possible. Then I filed a dispute with REMOVED, and now they say that they cant refund me because I filed a dispute. Talking in circles, lying, refusing to escalate to a manager. And stealing my money! I am sure they make a fortune offering promotional rates, but charging full price. Its not right! You are charged ahead of the usage. I asked for cancellation and a full refund of my $21. I would have been satisfied just paying the $8, I agreed to and continuing service, but this is ridiculous.Business Response

Thank you for the opportunity to respond.
We appreciate the customer bringing this matter to our attention. After reviewing the account, we confirmed that the customer contacted our team regarding a promotional discount that she believed had not been applied, resulting in a full-price charge.
Upon review, the customer was approved for a refund as requested. However, prior to the refund being processed, a dispute was submitted through REMOVED. Once a dispute is initiated, REMOVEDrestricts the merchants ability to issue a direct refund, and our system generated a notification indicating that the refund transaction could not be completed due to the active dispute.
The matter was subsequently resolved through REMOVEDdispute process, and the customer received the refund directly via REMOVED. Please see attachment.
We remain committed to providing timely support and resolving customer concerns in good faith.Initial Complaint

The business forced us into a predatory contract with their small writing. I've had extenuating circumstances and am trying to avoid going to court, but they have no morals and no communication. The contract we have will be legally voided but they refuse to acknowledge the circumstances. A complete silence from their end while still sending us bills rather than getting this problem resolved.Business Response

I received no written notification, email correspondence, or advance warning of this subscription renewal, thereby violating disclosure requirements and denying me the opportunity to exercise my right to cancel.LACK OF CONSIDERATION AND UNJUST ENRICHMENT This charge constitutes unjust enrichment as I have not accessed, downloaded, or utilized any REMOVEDservices for over twelve (12) months. There was no consideration provided in exchange for this payment, rendering this transaction void and unenforceable.DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES REMOVED's practice of processing automatic renewals without notification, combined with the absence of accessible customer service channels and automated denial of refund requests, constitutes deceptive and unfair business practices under consumer protection statutes.FORMAL DEMAND FOR RESTITUTION I hereby demand immediate restitution of $89.54 plus any associated fees. This demand is made under applicable consumer protection laws, including but not limited to automatic renewal statutes and unfair business practice regulations.PRESERVATION OF RIGHTS This correspondence serves as formal notice and preserves all legal rights and remedies available under applicable law.Initial Complaint

The transaction occurred on a credit card for the amount of $57 on 4/6, I was not notified of the "annual fee" and have not used the services since 2020 and apparently, I have been charged for the last four years without my knowledge. No one from S-C contacted me about the annual charge and no one at the company thought it was odd that someone continued to pay for a service they do not use. I contacted the company directly after I found what email was associated with the account to cancel it and was told I was not getting a refund - mind you this is an annual expense and I understand not getting a full refund as April and REMOVEDare both over at this point but I should receive a partial refund and an exclamation on how mt credit card was charged over all these years when my credit card expired. None of this makes any sense to me and I just want my money back.Business Response

REMOVEDis a paying customer of ours. Our terms and conditions clearly states that we do not offer refunds after the subscription has been renewed. However when she wrote into our Support team on 5/28/2024, we wrote back to her and informed her of our policy and we also removed her from autorenew so that she is now set to cancel April 5, 2025.
Additionally, we did email her several times before her renewal each year to let her know that she would be charged again (below is the list of all the emails she received from us reminding her of her renewal/payment method changes).
In fact, in 2023, her payment method expired but she took action to update it, which allowed the renewal to go through. As far as we are concerned, this is a normal customer interaction and we have resolved the case according to our policies and we communicated as much to REMOVEDwhen she contacted us.Initial Complaint

I don't need to use the software anymore. There is no option to cancel the reoccurring payments on their website. I have to contact the bank to make sure they do a stop payment when it opens later in the morning.Business Response

We have investigated this case and our findings/response is below.
REMOVEDhas not been a Screencastify customer since 2022 when we emailed her to inform her that her subscription was canceled. At the time she wrote into the BBB (August 2023) she had not been a customer of ours in over a year. I suspect she was confusing us with another service. Here is a record of the one time that REMOVEDwrote to our Support team:
REMOVED
Case Reference: 162826
Request: Refund
Contacted Support: 08/30/2022
Summary: They contacted us requesting a refund but we couldn't find their information based on their email address. Support requested additional information (Card Type, last 4 digits). We didn't hear back and sent a follow-up 9/1 before closing the case. At that time (2022), a refund would have been provided (either full or prorated) if we had more info since we did not enforce a stricter refund policy until 2023.
