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.

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

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.

forged and illegal documents for download at SCRIBD SCRIBD makes it possible to receive forged and illegal documents from users without any prior checks and offers these to paying customers for download. Even direct information to SCRIBD that a certain document is a forgery and is also illegal is of no avail. In my experience, complaints or tips are ignored. P.S. Comment to the below reply from SCRIBD: SCRIBD's response makes it clear that they didn't even bother to (properly) read through my comment above. The recommended "support" had been contacted by me before via Email and had been given all the details of the illegal/fake document, with a request to delete it from the server before further legal action could be required. This was followed by a presumably automated blah, blah, blah response. What's the point of contacting support if you get answers like that: QUOTE "......However, we regretfully inform you that we are unable to accept guest posts. Please note that neither Scribd, SlideShare, nor Everand are platforms for guest posts. Additionally, we do not list or index documents published on external websites nor participate in link exchange programs." UNQUOTE

Charged me despite no validated email Apparently I signed up months back to Scribd. The issue was that the email address I entered was incorrect and would definitely have bounced! So no welcome email, no receipts etc. Yet despite not having a validated email address they continued to charge me a monthly fee. Once I saw the recurring payment they only refunded 1 month subscription. Surely this is not legal to charge someone without a validated email address??? I hope the document I read was worth it, as I'm $100 out of pocket :-(
