My experience with AWeber has been terrible My experience with AWeber has been deeply disappointing. Their service feels robotic, with impersonal customer support. Terrible service The real problem, though, lies in their misleading pricing. They advertise an affordable starting rate, but once you're on board, hidden fees and sudden price increases hit you for more subscribers. You have to chase customer support to give you their pricing, making it hard to budget effectively. In summary, AWeber's abysmal customer service and misleading pricing practices make it an unsuitable choice for email marketing. Look elsewhere for transparency and better customer care.

Still taking my money after account closure After 'improvements' to their system in the spring of 2023, much of what I relied on to run my mailing campaigns no longer worked. Complaints were heard, but not acted on. It took a further six months or so until I had to the time to change my multiple lists to a different and hopefully better bulk email provider, during which time I continued to pay the monthly charge. I had asked for a discount to reflect the degraded level of service, but this was refused. Anyway, I finally transferred all my data out of the system and asked for the account to be closed. The system said this would be acted upon within one working day. Now, a week later, they have billed me the usual sum for the coming month. I was a client for around ten years, and would still be but for the 'improvements' that broke my business model. Aweber might be a good fit for many people still, but if they can't get a simple thing like closing an account right, it's not a good sign.

Great Service They've been consistently reliable for years. I think the Platform has gotten easier to use over the years, but they are always adding to it. Happy with their services, and would recommend them.

10-year customer: They took my money without my permission I've WAS an Aweber customer for about a decade and now am NOT. I decided to close my account and switch because Aweber's monthly fees get pretty steep as your list grows. But what gets them a mere two stars from me is what happened after I told two customer service reps (Amanda and Chris) to close the account and clicked "cancel plan" in the dashboard... THEY KEPT TAKING MY MONEY. I confirmed on July 7th that I didn't want the account anymore and they took FOUR MORE payments out of my Paypal account over the next two months. I emailed them repeatedly telling them I didn't want the service anymore until I had Paypal block their autopayments. They ignored me for a while but finally responded, eventually Jo there offered me an apology and confirmed that they had made a mistake not canceling my account. But they refused to fully refund me the payments they took without my permission for a service I didn't want and hadn't used in months. Fortunately, Paypal's dispute department (which can be hard to please) got me the money back as I provided them with all email threads confirming my side of the story. It's wild to me that a company, because of greed and incompetence, would insist on screwing a +10-year customer when doing the right thing would have been so easy. They get two stars because... It's a very robust email platform with a ton of features for managing email optins and sending a newsletter to subscribers. A few times I've had to contact customer service and they were very professional. But... I DO NOT recommend signing up for autopayments, as they may just keep trying to take your money. Also, if you don't pay your AWeber bill for a month they hold your list hostage until you pay. So just export and backup your list with some regularity.

Account terminated within minutes then told no refund!! I registered, completed all necessary forms with our company information, and uploaded our buyer contact list. After paying the $30 starting fee, my account was terminated within five minutes. While I understand account termination may sometimes occur, what is unacceptable is receiving this response when I requested a refund for services that were not rendered. "Hello, Accounts that have been closed for not adhering to AWeber's Service Agreement will not be eligible for any refund. No refund will be provided regarding the account. Regards, Josh S Email Best Practices Manager" ---- So you're telling me you banned our account within minutes and we're not eligible for a refund? According to the chargeback guidelines for visa transactions, this situation falls under 'services not provided by the merchant.' Therefore, I expect a refund following this review. If this is not resolved, I will initiate a chargeback through my bank and file formal complaints in all relevant jurisdictions where your company operates.
