Beware the "Easy Cancellation". Beware the "Easy Cancellation". I just received the program this week and discovered I will not be tutoring my nephew after all. I have been completely unable to cancel through the company. They don't offer cancellation as an option, so you have to go to Customer help. Then you have to deal with the bots where you're offered a menu of articles you can read. When you indicate you want to interact (not "speak") with an agent in online chat they say they will EMAIL me when an agent is available & online. LOLOLOLOL! Thank goodness I signed up through Paypal where I can manage my autopays without Hooked on Phonics' interaction because it is clear they will try to delay or avoid any cancellation.

This program doesn’t engage my 4 yr old… This program doesn’t engage my 4 yr old nearly enough- and to be honest, it confuses him when he has to match sounds to a certain box when the animals indicated on those boxes DONT have the same sounds as the letters. I feel this could be improved!!

your system stole money from us...I… your system stole money from us...I canceled the account under my email and they are saying there are 2 accounts with my email and I can only see one but the other is still being charged and now have the audacity to charge me to send back items I did not want to begin with and paid for not willingly...thieves!

Definitely worthwhile Love the hooked on phonics application. My daughter at 6 years old has made definite improvements with her reading adding this in our routine. We (my daughter and I) have one complaint, and that there's not enough variety in the games. There are days it takes some coaxing to make it all the way through a lesson of another very predictable game.

I love Hooked on Phonics I love Hooked on Phonics! My 4 year old son was interested in reading when he was 3, so we bought the entire Hooked on Phonics curriculum and he's on level 4 and readings so well! No other 4 year old in his Sunday School or co-op is reading as well as he is and it's incredible! He homeschool for many reasons but one reason was because I was public schooled and learned to read by word memorization not phonics and even today as an adult I fine it hard to pronounce words I haven't seen before. We actually ended up losing our Level 4 box somehow and so I had to reorder it. I accidentally had it sent to a former apartment of ours and when I emailed customer service, Heather F. Told me, "We have gone ahead and reshipped your package to the correct address at no additional cost. You are not required to return the package that was sent incorrectly. This can be disposed of or donated as you please." How wonderful is that! I love this company and am so pleased with how well both of my kids are reading now! Definitely buy it and tell you friends!
