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.

Highbrow International is what I think… Highbrow International is what I think of as this year's best internet discovery. Excellent learning tool with a wide variety of subjects available for those who are extremely busy. Daily, easy-to-digest lessons are a dream come true for those who are committed to lifelong learning. I find it most helpful as an introduction to topics that I find interesting but am still unsure of whether I want to invest a lot of time in learning.

Just want to echo other reviews ... (bad ones) ... Just want to echo other reviews: Brutal business model. I was waiting to be sent something, or just anything; never heard, was surprised to have my credit card charged after using zero of their service. My request for a refund was denied.

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.

Garbage Garbage. These “classes” are basically just curated newspaper clippings. To add insult to injury, the unsubscribe button apparently doesn’t work. I unsubscribed before my trial was over, but they’re telling me they didn’t see it. To make it even worse, they charged me before my trial was even over and now they won’t refund the money. It’s a crappy product and the people are unethical.
