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.

Theft and Fraud Facilitators This company has been fraudulently taking money from my account for months. I never signed up, the email isn't my email but they are using my credit card. No way to contact the company if you don't have an account - which I don't, although I seem to be paying for someone else's. Criminal.

Illegally taking my money This company has been taking money fraudulently from my account for months. I emailed them requesting my money back but they have ignored me. Disgraceful company. How is Scribd allowed to trade as a company with such illegal practices as to continue to take money from peoples bank accounts and then not refund the money. This company needs to be investigated the Government authorities.

Never signed up but their name showed up on my credit card. 2 seperate lines of charge showed up with their name on my credit card with $0. We don't have any accounts with them so no reason for any of it. How they got my credit card details is beyond me. But looking at all the reviews here, sounds like it's a dodgy company that makes it impossible to unsubscribe and deals with other shady business practices. I will wait for a couple of days to make sure the charges are gone otherwise might have to do a chargeback on credit card.

Sent my complaint about being charged… Sent my complaint about being charged without notice of the free month trial that finished. I was under the impression that I would be advised if I was to continue for the following month. I only found out because of my bank advice. I unsubscribed on their site and sent for reimbursement but no answer. Don't know if they will keep charging
