Extremely predatory pricing structure Extremely predatory pricing structure. Auto renewed with an email that went straight to my spam. I barely even remember signing up for the service in the first place, and never used it. As soon as I saw the (significant!) renewal charge on my CC bill I contacted them, and they refused to refund even though they could likely see I had never used it. I’ve had this happen a few times with subscriptions, and usually if you reach out within a window, they’ll accommodate the ask — left a terrible taste in my mouth and now will die on the hill of Skillshare being the worst.

Locked my student account for no reason. I found a 2 month trial period on YouTube, so I gave it a shot. 2 days into my learning, all of a suden I get logged out for no reason and my account was locked, my paypal payment was canceled and I could not log in anymore.. Contacted support, messaged them on Twitter, it has been a week and nothing, crickets.. Imagine if you would have to pay for this kind of support, so no thank you I will find another platform.

Don't do it - just read a book! Don't do it - you'll never be able to cancel. They hide your billing information and deactivate your ability to delete your account, yet you still get charged. Even under the equality act 2010 they do not assist you - despite asking as a reasonable adjustment. It's horrific. Just go and read a book.

NO REGARD FOR THE CONSUMER I never understand companies that think it is worth taking people's money who took the time to trial what they want to offer the world, such as was my case. I then found it was not for me, have no intention of using their platform and yet they take your money regardless. Why I had to sign up to access the platform in itself is not common. I wish you luck for the future but I will be sure to warn people that after kindly writing to you and asking for a refund, explaining I had no intentions of using your platform, you refuse. Ethical businesses send you reminders that your trial is approaching the end and you may be charged if you do not take action? NOT, SKILLSHARE! People generally do not approve of such business antics, but then again ,I guess you do not care?

WARNING WARNING: THEY SNEAK POLICIES INTO THEIR T&CS! I emailed them within minutes of being charged as I had forgotten about a free trial that I had taken up. I never received a reminder email and they have now said that they’ve got a policy of not doing refunds for any trials that are longer than 14 days. A very questionable and sneaky approach and I can see why there are so many bad reviews now…
