GBBeware of ABC Mouse Beware of ABC Mouse; they tried to scam me. I signed up for a yearly subscription in 2018. I canceled the subscription in 2020 and have a cancellation confirmation email from ABC Mouse. On July 14, 2022, ABC Mouse tried to charge an expired credit card for the yearly subscription fee of 59.99. My credit card company flagged the fraudulent charge. Additionally, I contacted ABC Mouse regarding the situation at which time they tried to upsell me a different subscription. It’s billing practices are outright fraudulent.

CABeware of abcmouse scam I got an annual subscription of abcmouse in Feb 2024. I tried to download the app in March 2024 and the available app on the playstore is abcmouse reimagined. I downloaded that and when I signed in, I got a message that my subscription was for abcmouse early learning not abcmouse reimagined. I have contacted their customer support and was told to use it online at abcmouse.com -.this is untrue as it does not work online. You need the app to use the program I have been charged for the annual subscription and the app I paid for has been pulled off the playstore. The customer rep said I needed a new subscription to use abcmouse reimagined. What about what I paid for?I want a refund!!!

GBSo I have had this program for a couple… So I have had this program for a couple years for my son who is now 5 years old. The program is very glitchy, and I have had to contact them many times to fix. Most of the answers are that it doesn't work well on this device, or this and that server. It is VERY tiresome. However, I had gotten my child as far as I could by myself, he was pretty advanced, and I am no teacher. I wouldn't say you get the results that they advertise on their commercials, but my son definitely has learned from it. The "Path" is the educational part and it becomes boring and like work, so I do have to force him to get through one path a day and it is like pulling teeth! I do not know of any other site that is better and soon he will start Kindergarten and will have a base to build on.

GBMarketed for young children, but clunky interface We took up a trial for our 3.5 year old son, and the interface for this on the iPad is awful. This clearly hasn't been designed for a good iPad experience, simply linking out to their website. Interface is unclear for younger children. Also, marketing in the UK, this is a US based product, with no option of choosing UK language settings. This will cause confusion for younger children. It seems like some of the basics have been missed off here.

GBI really do not like or dislike this… I really do not like or dislike this program. We use the apple app. I find the app is glitchy, doesn't give tickets for completed work, app says certain things aren't available. I only pay the monthly fee, because my son enjoys playing with the hamster cage and the bedroom, that he gets from collecting tickets. He occasionally will grab the iPad and do some of the educational parts. All and all he gets bored real quick with this. I guess it would be good for a parent with preschool kids or younger. I think the younger kids will like the cute songs, and the other stuff they offer. I have been a subscriber for at least a year, and in that year they have raised the cost to their monthly paying members, stating their program was worth more. Maybe it is worth it too some people, but for me I do not find enough helpful material. I wish They Would offer a section for special needs kids.....
