Here's the deal Pros: sleek design, interesting content Cons: content lacks depth and skews toward generic truisms; they don't honor customer satisfaction - if you don't like their product, then you're stuck with it for a year and the $48 USD price Observations: they send the course(s) you choose, otherwise you don't hear from them

Not worth 2 dollars Not worth the money. The quality of the courses are uneven (some just plain terrible -- but some decent). Platform itself is out of date and not user friendly -- not much effort is put into designing a platform that meets the user needs. One can't choose 10 courses in advance or set up a profile with favorites. No app. Website is glitchy. In general it seems it was designed 10 years ago, not updated and they focus all efforts now into locking unsuspecting customers into year-long memberships and no effort whatsoever into providing quality courses or platform services for the actual members. Do not subscribe!

No notice of impending subscription expiration; No refunds Stay away; it's a LOWBROW business model. I had a trial subscription at a reduced rate. On the evening of the trial expiration date I received a receipt for a year's subscription ($60+) that included a statement that if I canceled the subscription by that date, I wouldn't be charged, even though they had already charged me. I promptly canceled (on said date), but Highbrow denied my request for a refund. The predatory practices of such subscription-based services are disgusting.

They will charge you before alerting… They will charge you before alerting you that you are being charged. Then they will not refund your money when you immediately ask for a cancellation. There is no "profile" to log into so you never know when your year is up and how to cancel ahead of time. I was told there is no phone support and that they CAN NOT issue refunds even if I asked within 24 hours of being charged. Unacceptable customer service. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE.

If I could give zero o would If I could give zero o would. They never sent me anything after the first two weeks and then casually charged me a thirty dollar renewal fee and would not refund it even though o contacted them immediately and told th o never rece Fed their crappy government ridiculous. They’ve got some nerve calling themselves “highbrow” when they are fraudsters and scammers and are about as lowbrow as they can get. I’m contacting my attorney general and BBB to report their scam
