Very disappointed in AVAAZ… I am very disappointed to find that many months ago I sent Avaaz a 'once off' donation of R80.00, which they have just kept debiting my account with up until now, the latest date being 5th August 2021. I specifically instructed that this was a once off payment which they are ignoring. PLEASE delete my name from your subscriber list immediately, I do not have the funds to donate. The payment was a single and sincere donation only.

Although people have signed petitions… Although people have signed petitions in front of me and gone through the process of verifying, they are not a robot. The application does not update with their signature nor does it increase the ticker as to the number of people signing the petition!

Be careful when signing a donation My advise is be very careful when donating. Like some others I authorized a one-off donation and the amount has been taken off my account every month ever since. The biggest problem is that when I access my account to view the donations there is no record of them, the only way to try and cancel the charge is via a contact form and it seems wrong - you should be able to view and manage your donations within the account. I emailed and used the contact form and since there has been no answer I had no choice but cancel my card.

Just sign important petitions I just sign the more important petitions , I rarely get spam and its only for important petitions that I'm happy to sign . They are like many charities that have one off donations and standing order donations that repeat every month , it's a bit too easy to press for repeat donations by mistake and it's quite hard to correct the mistake . Loss a star for that . Currently they have 1.4 Million signatures on a petition to Trial Putin for war crimes , I think that's pretty good .

I think Avaaz potentially does good… I think Avaaz potentially does good work, but they seem to intentionally make it near impossible to contact them. They make it very easy to setup donations, but then now way to stop them. Their website, offers no contact information at all. Their help page say to click on the pink button below to contact us. There is no pink button. this it too big an organization to have such a poorly designed website if it is unintentional.
