Beware their "auto renew" feature which is enabled as standard I made a one-off purchase of 25 credits which I used within an hour. Checked my bank account today and I thought they had charged me twice. As it turned out, they have a totally unfair auto-enabled "renew" feature which basically charges you again and adds 25 more credits to your account when you have used the last of the previous set.

Don't waste your money. I wanted to download an image as a vector graphic and bought a subscription to pay every month 15€, and wanted to cancel it afterward, as it was cheaper than paying 30€ for a single download. After making the purchase, I couldn't download the image as SVG, only as a raster image. Proceeding to cancel my subscription, I saw that there was a cancellation fee of another 45€ since even though I am paying monthly, it was apparently a yearly plan. In total 60€ completely wasted.

Hefty cancellation fee If you need to cancel because you can't afford it - too bad. They'll charge you a hefty cancellation fee anyway. It's wild that a cancellation fee even exists when it costs them nothing to remove the service.

If there were an option for negative stars shutterstock wins the award for the worst customer service. Stay away from this company.
