Unauthorised charges on my credit card! Unauthorised charges on my credit card! I followed some links to "free" documents on scribd a while back. Now there are charges appearing on my credit card. Did I give them permission? Well whenever I sign up for an account anywhere I do these things: 1) I use the "+" feature of gmail to identify the company eg myemail+scribd at gmail. This great feature makes it easy to sort my emails and keep track of things. My alleged account at scribd did not have this addition. 2) I use a particular pattern for my user names to make them easier to remember. My alleged scribd username did not follow my pattern. 3) I use a password manager to store the website and username, and generate a unique and VERY secure password for each site. There is no entry for Scribd in my password manager database! 4) Then I paste the password from password manager into my browser. I checked my browser and there is no password stored for Scribd! So I accept I have opened links to documents that the linkers said were free, but I can be pretty sure I _didn't_ give Scribd permission to charge me. So how did they manage to charge my credit card? I am querying Scribd about this.

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.

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.

unfair policies My wife took out a subscription to this service which I only became aware of 1.5 years after she died of cancer. When I approached the company to ask for a refund they said would only refund 6 months, saying that payments before this were ‘finalised’. No amount of explaining that I was completely unaware of the subscription and that it had obviously not been used was any good. I can’t believe they would not make an exception in cases of bereavement.

I DONT HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH THEM BUT IM… I DONT HAVE AN ACCOUNT WITH THEM BUT IM BEING CHARGED I was charged last april 20 of a subscription. I dont even have an account with them. Im from asia and Scribd is not really well known here, 0 idea what this website is. You need to increase security. Wont delete this until I received my dispute
