The advertisement showed that the software was being sold with a lifetime license, including upgrades over time. The deal also included an another piece of software, marketed as buy one-get one, also with a lifetime license (see picture), as there were no terms to dictate otherwise. The purchase button takes you to a purchase screen with no additional information indicating otherwise. Upon purchase, the receipt says that the second piece of software is good for only three months. No where was this indicated prior, and I need both, or I wouldnt have purchased the software in the first place; likely I wouldve picked another package, waited for a sale, or gone with another manufacturer. Upon contacting the company and asking for them to cover the license upgrade as their advertising stated, they have continued to stall and are asking me to upgrade to get the lifetime license. I then asked for a refund and they said that the refund does not meet their terms, which it does, because the reason for the refund request (product not being fulfilled) is not listed as a refund disqualification. It doesnt have to be because its fraudulent business if you dont get what you paid for. All Im asking for is my money back, this is scam marketing and business practices.Initial Complaint

I purchased the yearly access to the VideoProc Converter AI. Despite contacting support several times, i was unsuccessful in resolving the problem with the software. Steps they told me to do involved disabling my firewall, running as admin, uninstall/reinstall, clearing the DNS cashe, sent screenshots of the error code, etc. When I requested a refund, they informed me I did not qualify because I did not give a reason. I do not wish to pay for a program that will not run. Despite having a BBB icon on their website (I use this to make purchase decicions), I was shocked after my purchase, to find that it was not linked when I clicked it.Initial Complaint

Digiarty... took money from my account saying it was auto renewal... after I bought and canceled the Winx dvd program last year bc the program is a total scam. I have weeks of emails and phone calls from them... ***** ma same and tech specialist is VERY rude to the point of suggesting I'm stupid. The whole program is a scam DO NOT BUY... having to dispute with bank, change my card and number dude to them refusing refund or allowing me to be deleted from their subscription renew list. I NEVER agreed to auto renew, I refuse to buy things that auto draft... they never notified me of pending charges. Stay away from this company... The program didn't rip dvds... the bonus free program never opened... I have been fighting with them for over a year... biggest regret dealing with them. They don't have contact info... any customer service goes to a different billing company that can only email a refund request...Initial Complaint

I purchased a lifetime license for a piece of software, MacX Video Converter Pro though StackSocial (software made by Digiarty Software). In the past they have claimed that I have used the software on multiple machines, which has never been true though they have never deactivated it before. I suspect that they're doing this because they're experienced 'Seller's remorse,' in that I purchased a lifetime license and they don't want to honor it. I should also mention that I use a VPN (virtual private network) on my computer. Could it be creating that impression that I am using the software on multiple machine? Maybe? Since it can connect to the Internet via different locations though that's not what Digiarty is saying (and this is entirely speculation on my part though VPN's aren't illegal and Digiarty needs to fix their system if it is the case). Instead they're accusing me of using the software on multiple machines, which as I said is not true. It wasn't very expensive software, but that's not the point. It's the principal. They can't just decide to suspend my license for reasons that aren't true (never mind not informing me. The only reason I know of this is that I was transferring the software to another machine and uninstalled it from the machine I was working on prior – where it was working quite fine by the way. The only issue is one of reactivation).Business Response

On 01/17/24 I purchased a software program to stabilize my youtube videos. It did not work as promised so it promised a money back guarantee. I called within hours to cancel. They've been sending me stall emails and I have contacted their support number three times. I've been hung up on, lied to and told a refund was forthcoming, and stalled with emails requesting screen shots. I can't send the a screen shot on how a shaky video was not stabilized. They are refusing to refund me as promised and I've been lied to and stalled. I've attempted to resolve six times. The order number is *********. They kept telling me to wait five business days for a refund but of course, this did not happen.Business Response

103023 I spent 21.20 a representative from Digiarty wanted to argue, call me a liar everything but a solution. I see they have misused my funds and I want and seek appropriate action in getting this refund. Customer satisfaction guaranteed or your money back and it's well in the time frame so why is this so difficult? Using a 2checkout company who cannot refund but happily takes your money is very fishy.Business Response

I purchased digital software from Digiarty, WinX DVD Ripper Platinum based on help article on their website stating this software would convert file to a format that could be viewed on my media server (MKV format). First I tried (free trial) the software and could not find the option in the trial. Only based on the article, I figured the trial version was limited and so I paid the $65.50 to purchase the full version so that I could so the file conversion I needed. Still with the full license, I found no option to convert the file to MKV. Within 1 day (15 hours later), I determined the software could not do what I needed it to do. I sent email to support asking for refund. We went back and forth by email and they kept trying to push me to try other software. meanwhile, I had bought another package from another company that very easily does exactly what I need. The person who was responding on behalf of the company danced and danced trying to tell me to use another one of their software packages, but I did not want it; I already had a solution. I simply wanted a refund. Today, after email #6, they told me no refund would be given. I have already uninstalled the software and will not be using it. I was very kind in my communications with them, but they seem to just want my money for nothing. I will not be trusting this company nor their representatives again. They even offer a 30-day money back guarantee on their website, but they do not honor this. I don't think it's fair that they keep my money after I tried the software, found it unusable and uninstalled it within 15 hours.Initial Complaint

I purchased a product from this company (Winx DVD) to try to burn a DVD to become compatible with Xbox so that I could gift it to my dad as a Christmas present. I purchased this product as a last resort. It did not work. The only reason I purchased is because the product said "30 day money back guarantee". So I thought that if it didnt work, that I could request my money back. It didn't work, so I requested and they just kept arguing and denying my request saying that I needed to show proof that it didn't work and all these other reasons. I couldn't show proof because I had returned the apple superdrive that connected my dvd to my laptop. I literally bought it because of the money back guarantee and tried to get my money back within a day. It was only like $40.
