Multiple "unsubscribe" requests ignored Despite multiple requests to unsubscribe from "is this publication yours?" emails, they keep coming. This has been going on for six months. It is spamming now, pure and simple. Academia.edu is not respecting the notification choices of their customer base - and they are also breaking UK law by doing this!

ACademia is in violation I keep getting emails that I am getting mentioned or used in academia papers, only trying yo charge me a huge amount for a premium upgrade. The pount is that anything i write or photograph is either compleetly copyrighted by me (So academia is in violation) or publisg unde creative comments share alike in witch case academia still is in violation. Third posibility is then just spamming me with email. Witch , in the way they do, is also in violation.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS Processed a yearly subscription from my account without any notice or instruction. Thieves. Stay away, and do not sign up for any of their ‘£1 trials’ as they will scam you in the future. Never again will I use this companies service, and I hope this review reduces their future income.

I am absolutely outraged that I have… I am absolutely outraged that I have been charged £166.80 for a Premium subscription. I mistakenly signed up for Academia Premium last year (at the time it was £69). In that time, most of the mentions have been for another academic with a similar name to me, so pretty much the service has been rubbish. I have just looked through my emails and have located an email sent on 8 March, which advised me that subcription charges would be going up, but there is absolutely no option in the email to cancel this. Now, I have just tried to log in to my account and it says there is a problem, so I cannot even cancel the subscription to ensure this never happens again. I will take this further if Academia edu do not refund my subscription. I am appalled that this sort of company has sway in the academic community.

This is extreemly redicules site and… This is extreemly redicules site and web serviece. I highly recommend that you don't sign up even, aside from paying for a memebership. it looks not only fraudlent but spamy too. I unsubsribed from their silly spamming message services 3 times but I still get stupid messages about my name is menitoned somewhere. The article I signed for them to access wasn't accessable anyway too!!! Don't even register with them it is too fishy and spamy
