This website is all about monopoly This website is all about monopoly, it forces you to subscrive, why can not i read a single document without waiting 30 seconds for ad to skip, which will reappear in every 10 seconds, why do this people blur rest of the document if i have not subscribed. "OH SUBSCRIBE FOR FREE TRIAL AND THE CANCEL" what the point in this. some of the people are pupils and students who desperately needs one document for their assigment and does not even have the damn credit card to subscribe for free trial. and also i have to upload 4 documents to download one document? this website is forcing you to pay, the devs are monopolists. if i got this much bad reviews i would change something.

I’m giving them a 1 star review because… I’m giving them a 1 star review because the website popped up when I was looking for something and it gave me the option to download what I was looking but it asked me to make an account. I made the account and then it asked for $11.99 and said it would be free for 30 days. Here’s the issue. Scribd uses the word free for click bait. The other issue is I DONT WANT TO GIVE YOU MY BANK INFORMATION! This information should have popped up right after I clicked on the link but it didn’t and now I have to unsubscribe and figure out how to delete my account. Y’all are not worth the inconvenience especially after I found the SAME THING for FREE on another site! Part 2: your response was generic and unacceptable. I specifically said I do not want you to have my bank information. I specifically said that the 11.99 and free trial crap should’ve popped up when asked to make a account.I specifically said this was a waste of my time because I was not able to download the file without the free trial that includes the MY bank info that I don’t want you to have.

Like most people surprised at being… Like most people surprised at being charged (today) - I've never used the service my reading history is blank. So I've cancelled on the scribd website, and also then logged into my payment service (paypal) to cancel future payments. I've also emailed scribd asking them to reverse the payment. Now checking here I see others have been charged even after cancelling, which was not my initial concern. So I'll start with 3 stars assuming good intent on their side, but I will update this review when I hear back from scribd. I do hope they won't try taking any further payments and they reverse my one surprise payment.

Checked trust pilot after Sub request, Thanks! Just been looking for a document I need. Would be happy to pay a few quid for it but AFTER you create an account, it says you need to add payment details for a free 30 day sub (I was stung by one of these 'cancel anytime' sub things 20 years ago). Looks like things haven't changed. If you are stuck in one of these, phone your bank and say you lost your card, you'll get a new card number so payments won't go through. Really, with today's GDPR rules they shouldn't be retaing your details like this!

thieves! thieves! After having cancelled my subscription they kept taking the money from my bank account without sending a receipt of payment and denying I did cancel the account They are thieves!!! ============================ It is interesting, I wrote you an email asking for a refund as I did got a screen confirmation I did cancel the account, I’ve NEVER entered your website ever in the following months! In the email I’ve got from the support the message is: we don’t monitor if you use the services or not. So you charged my monthly subscription for 32 months!!! Without sending an email with a receipt of payment. You only care about getting the money! That confirm the title = LADRI
