I was charged through Paddle for services from ********. I canceled nordpass over a year ago and still was charged. I have reached out to paddle and they said they are just following terms that I agreed to. I again canceled and have proof that I have been on a free account for the last year. This is fraudulent and there is no reason for this.Business Response

I am getting charged by this company many times throughout the years, and I have tried to contact them to complain, but I don't get anywhere with this company. I have made purchases from them about 5 or 6 years ago, but throughout the years, they have continued to renew subscriptions without my authorization, I call when I catch them, and then they might cancel, but they do not refund me. I am tired of trying to work with this company bc there is no end in sight. I would like my refunds from this company, and I would like for them to never ever charge me for anything again. My account should be permanently closed with them.Initial Complaint

I paid $164 9/15/2024 for a subscription (monthly growth) for a creatomate api service which they offer. On 9/16/2024, I wanted to downgrade my subscription as I didn't feel I needed to use as much memory. I chose the yearly option on accident, it charged me $490. I went to change my subscription to monthly, and they charged me another $49. Instead of crediting me any money back, they simply charged my ****** account 3 times. I attempted to reach out on 9/16, they offered me an automated bot solution that did not work. I replied saying no one has reached out and they still have not gotten back to me. I reached out to ****** and ****** initially disputed. Once they contacted them, they decided to charge me $164 and $490 again. This does not make sense, how can I pay two separate subscriptions for one single account? The worst part is, they set my account up as a free trial, even though I didn't dispute the $49. So because of a bug in their website, or no true option to *change* your subscription, I was charged 3x for 1 account for 1 subscription. They also offer no communication to me, only ******. I realize this also happened in July where they charged me $49 and when I upgraded my subscription, another $164. The appropriate action in September would have been this:1. Refund the 164 2. Refund the 490 3. Charge the 49 (however, because they canceled my subscription after a few days, I need this money back too).The appropriate action in July would have been this:1. Refund the 49 2. Charge the 164 (This was the exact charge for the subscription plan I purchased, why not refund the 49 I paid the day before or credit me 49?)Initial Complaint

I am writing to address an urgent issue regarding a recent transaction. I initially purchased a plan for 20 photos at a rate of $19.00. However, I was charged $228.00 through *******After contacting Virtual Staging AI, which processes payments through Paddle.com, I received an email stating that I would be refunded $193.00. While this amount is still incorrect, I was prepared to accept it. Unfortunately, I have yet to receive any refund.Given that I have canceled my subscription and have not utilized the 20 photos, I am seeking a prompt resolution. I kindly request a full refund of $209.00, reflecting the discrepancy in the amount charged.I would appreciate your immediate attention to this matter, as I prefer not to continue business with a provider where such discrepancies occur.Thank you for your prompt assistance.Business Response
