Beware the gift that keeps on taking! A couple of years ago we were gifted a masterclass subscription. We were not particularly interested but apparently signed up for a couple of courses that we never viewed. To sign up we had to enter a credit card and for three years were charged $180/year though we never used the service. The charges hit at the first of the year and - our bad - we did not review the cc statements and the charges were included in same statements as our holiday spending. This year we saw the charge, challenged it and Masterclass refunded this year's charge and canceled the auto renewal. Masterclass refused to refund the prior years' charges.

Absolute charlatans that like others… Absolute charlatans that like others have said before make it impossible to cancel. Have an email confirmation saying your renewal fee won't be taken, it was and now 5 emails to customers services later and still no reply. Based on other reviews below I hold out little hope of seeing this substantial amount of money again. Disgusting.

Woke Overload I found a few classes I loved, by people who are top notch at what they do and terrific at teaching it. However just a few. Masterclass is shamelessly "woke" - and I'm saying this as someone who's never been a conservative or voted Republican. MC offers a class on how to succesfully perform womanface (how admirable!), a class from Bill Clinton, and others from luminaries across the corporate media and academic liberal spectrum. Not a single thought leader who has a background or viewpoint that incompatible with predominant woke ideology. The few classes I liked weren't ideological at all, just great teachers.

They are bloody charging me out of my… They are bloody charging me out of my pocket till I submit, bend the knee and bow down like dog. It’s a a fraudulent company people, beware! Once your in, your forever locked in. They won’t let you leave! There is no option to cancel subscription, the instructions look straightforward but really it’s just misleading. They never wanted you to leave. There should be a clear bloody visible bottom that says “cancel subscription” but they purposely erased it from their website and app. It’s now become apparent to me that there are thieves running this company. Every company has their fair share of shady business practices but boy, oh boy, masterclass is bloody unreal. You’ve pretty much sold your soul financially and emotionally.

I was charged $240 CAD when I shouldn’t… I was charged $240 CAD when I shouldn’t have been; I called Customer Service and honestly expected a long drawn out argument but the agent I spoke to understood what had happened and didn’t argue at all, he just said a refund would be issued in 5-10 business days. The full amount was actually refunded and deposited into my bank account within 30 minutes. I was so relieved! I do agree it’s impossible to cancel a trial, I couldn’t find a way either like some others are saying. I haven’t been with MC long enough for an opinion of the company but the CS agent I dealt with was wonderful.
