It's a scam

It's a scam. They will charge you for a premium subscription once you register. DO NOT DO IT!

This company is a scam

This company is a scam. I only wanted the free service which I paid £3 for and when I then registered tag they started taking £9 per month. I have contacted my bank to try to recoup my money.

I bought a Crumb tag in good faith and paid the P&P as described. I used PayPal. I found out later that they were taking regular monthly payments from my PayPal account. So I blocked future payments. This is highly unethical, and I would say its a scam

This is great because I had no clue before that we could do some kind of "finger prints" with animals which are unique just like our finger prints. On top of it it is free so that is great. This gives me a peace of mind so I do not worry about my cat. I love it. This is really caring for our furry friends. Thanks to Nick.

So glad you love it! Peace of mind for cat owners is everything, and we're thrilled you found the unique SnoutID feature. Thanks for trusting us with your cat, Nick!

Every pet owner need this

The service has been excellent, and I received my tag quickly. It's reassuring to know that this company provides an extra layer of protection should my dog ever go missing or, in the worst-case scenario, be stolen. What I particularly love is that, even if her tag and microchip were removed, there is still a chance of being reunited thanks to the Snout ID feature in the app. Knowing that there are multiple ways to help identify and recover her gives me real peace of mind. Highly recommended.

Scam

This company are scamming people out of many by taking unauthorised payment for a premium subscription. And when you speak to the customer service team they claim that you opted in which is totally not true. This is theft and such a shame to scam pet owners who are lovingly looking after their pets

Unethical bait and switch payment model

The concept is great, but the registration is unethical and very close to being a scam, perhaps actually is. It never explicitly said that any of my decisions would result in a recurring payment, which they take using the details you gave them for the P&P - I never authorised a sub, nor did I understand my payment info would be retained to take monthly payments without authorisation.

When I emailed them to ask for this to be reversed as I did not authorise a payment and the dog I had bought the tag for didnt even exist yet (prepping for a reserved pup in the summer) they just said I can cancel in future if I want. They present a caring personal tone, but appear to be a borderline bait and switch using retained payment info that is unethical and inappropriate. Avoid.

Hi, thank you for your feedback and we have noted your comments. We did contact you back, to get some further information to locate your details, but unfortunately didn't hear back from you. We do charge a small fee for our Premium and Premium Plus Tiers which cover the ongoing cost of the service and for all of the great benefits and features, like Vet and Shelter notifications, GPS alerts and the Snout I.D. We can reassure you that no subscription is ever set up without the consent of a Customer. We also do offer a Free Tier - this is for a basic Pet Profile and our team will be more than happy to assist you in setting this up. Please contact them directly at: support@crumb.pet We look forward to hearing from you.

Disappointed,I have cancelled crumb as I no longer needed it due to my pet passing away. I received an email from Tom with the first line saying “well that’s that. As of today your pet is no longer protected.”not one compassionate word. Only disappointment that you have cancelled. Thought this company was different, turns out it’s not.

Charges fees without informing you

The idea behind crumb is great, and I had no problems setting up for my first cat, but with our second, the sign up process had changed, with multiple options that at no point tell you they are part of a subscription service and require payment until you complete the set up and are already charged for their subscription. This I find completely unethical-it should be clear if there is a fee up front so people can make an informed decision about services they might want to pay for. I’m now looking elsewhere to replace the crumb tags with others as I no longer trust the ethics of this company
