  We cancelled our Hubspot contract and paid our past dues in December of 2022. We were assured, multiple times by multiple company representatives, that our contract cancellation will be honored and we will not receive any more invoices as we already paid our past due invoice. They continue to harass us and send us invoices for our dues that are already paid. When asked for proof, I provided them with our contractual agreement and our email conversations. They ignore my emails and continue to send invoices, then when I told them once again it is a mistake, they keep asking for proof I already gave them. This is harassment and fraud. They refuse to cancel our account and continue to ask for "proof". I looped in all of the representatives I spoke to on the same email, gave them our contract, gave them our proof of invoice payment, and gave them the conversation IDs to prove that we were told multiple times that 1. our contract is cancelled, 2. we only have one outstanding invoice, 3. we paid that invoice in full and no longer have obligations to pay them. They refuse to answer my emails and instead continue to ask for the same proof I already gave them, or else they will continue to send our invoice to collections even though we already paid it.

  Better Business Bureau:I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does not satisfy or resolve my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint # ********. Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered. 

  I requested to cancel my contract and we paid all of our outstanding invoices in December 2022. We were assured multiple times that we did not owe anything else. Suddenly, in January of 2023, we were told that we owed more money. After going back and forth with ********************************* and ******* ***** for months, who repeatedly asked me for information I gave them over and over again. Eventually they produced an invoice I have not seen before, but they agreed that they would waive the invoice and I would not owe anything, and they admitted that this was because of a miscommunication on their part. Now they are saying we owe $715, and the "Finance Team" put this balance on our account, because it was a balance accrued from December to Jan 23rd, when they cancelled our account. Even though I cancelled my contract IN DECEMBER and requested MULTIPLE TIMES to cancel my account. ********************************* and ******* ***** assured me I would not be charged anything more and that my account would be terminated in March 2023. I requested to cancel anyway so this exact situation would not happen. The Jan 23rd date is made up and Hubspot refuses to produce proof, while I have plenty of proof, receipts, and copies of emails that show I initiated this in December, and that my contract was cancelled in December, and I was assured in December that I would not owe anything. The "finance team" adding $700 to my account because we "accrued" this balance from December to Jan 23rd makes no sense and is completely exploitative. They are trying to charge us after they assured us we wouldn't be charged and that the invoices were Hubspot's mistakes. Hubspot is extremely fraudulent, and ********************************* and ******* ***** should be fired immediately. We are taking legal action against Hubspot, *********************************, and ******* *****. These charges are 100% fraudulent and they cannot produce any proof or calculation of debt owed. Jan 23rd is a made up date. Hubspot should be investigated.

  ********* and *****, after reviewing your complaint, we've asked our third-party collections agency to withdraw the account, meaning they will not continue to follow up with you for payment. If you have any further questions, let us know.

  Ongoing issues with HubSpot, still unresolved given my earlier complaint. I have been in conversation with HubSpot for more than 4 months to try and correct our subscription package that keeps getting messed up by this company. We are a small, non profit ******** organization who is being treated badly by HubSpot despite being a customer for over three years. We have seen despicable customer service and a very low interest in resolving our ongoing issue. I deplore the BBB to investigate this company for unfair business practices, particularly for non profit organizations. Our rep has been trying to fix this error for more than 2 month!

  Hi ****, 

  I'm reaching out regarding your latest complaint to the BBB on 12/19.

  I connected with ****, who shared that the quote has now been processed and some additional clarification around pricing was also shared. I'll be connecting with the relevant teams internally to ensure the feedback is received. 

  As an additional note, I had responded to your previous complaint through the BBB last week but did not receive a response. From what I can see, everything looks squared away on your account. Do you have additional questions that have been unanswered that you're still looking for insight on? Feel free to send those along here. 

  Best,

  Chelsea

  Calling out HubSpot for ongoing dubious business practices. Our organization has been a loyal client of HubSpot for three years. Each year, as we work towards renewing our service, we enter into this Bait and Switch dance with various sales reps. **** all say they are going to work to resolve our (ongoing) issue and each time, HubSpot FAILS! We have been oversold and upsold a whole bunch of services that we did not want and DO NOT NEED. We have had to keep our Sales Pro subscription despite having asked for it to be removed from our account repeatedly. We have been told that we are receiving a substantial discount when in fact we can get the same price from HubSpot via TechSoup. **** have tried to get us to enter into a long-term agreement with them in spite of clear articulation of our concerns about their business practices. We are a non-profit organization! HubSpot should be ashamed of themselves and their account reps **********

  Hi ****, 

  Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us about your concerns. 

  Taking a look at your account, I am no longer seeing an active Sales subscription. Your newest quote, shared 12/6 (https://app.hubspot.com/checkout/4892717/quotes/28YNYG2XN31QC8VO ) will bring your contract back to the ****** ************* tier. It reads ****** additional contacts in the quote as your account comes included with ***** to begin with. This reflects the original ask of 42k contracts.  

  Regarding your renewal experience, I'll certainly connect with the appropriate teams to deliver this feedback. That said, please respond to this email should you need additional support with your account. I'm happy to help! 

  Best,

  Chelsea

  Im receiving scam fraudulent text messages thats using the HubSpot platform. I have contracted Amazon and they have instructed me to disregard the text message. Amazon has stated they did not send the text message related to my Amazon account being locked. HubSpot should be aware of their platform being used for fraudulent purposes.

  Hubspot continues to charge a subscription for a product I do not use. I had signed up for a start up discount trial and realized that I could not learn the system as it was too advanced. I called to notify after the purchase and they stated I needed to continue paying $139 for one year, since I signed a contract for 1 year. I paid 1 full year already for a useless software. The autorewal for the second year started at $695 per month. I cannot pay it and notified them I dont use the software. They stated since I did not cancel prior to the auto renewal I need to pay $695 per month for another year, this is a complete scam as I notified them this software is not even in use and I havent wanted it since the 1st year second month of purchase.
