Real learning in bite-sized pieces I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I've learned from some of the Highbrow courses. As a busy professional, it's hard to find time to study long texts about subjects I'm curious about. Too often, I abandon articles or books before finishing them, simply because of the pace of work. Highbrow sends bite-sized pieces of learning each morning, something I can always manage. It is amazing how much information can be packed into those pieces. If I want to explore something further, each day's lesson includes links to other resources, which is invaluable. I'm no expert at the end of ten days, but I've been exposed to the basics and usually some actionable advice I put into practice. Highly recommended.

Sketchy business model Sketchy business model They prey on those who sign up for their 30 day trial period and refuse to offer refunds when they charge you for a year trial after you tell them you accidentally subscribed. Run far away from these guys.

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.

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.

Useless "courses" sold by scammers Useless "courses". Useful tip if you want to try them: cancel the subscription at least 2 days in advance as the trial period is not exactly 30 days from your subscription but they round it up based on their time zone (stated in the fine print which is not easy to see when you subscribe). They also charge you VAT no matter where you live and don't expect any refund from them. Update: I can't believe there are spoonies who are stupid enough to give any credit to the "courses" offered by these scammers 😂😂😂 For everything they send to you, you can find better, deeper content for free using Google. Don't waste your money!
