Beware of the Monthly Charge

In terms of the CV writing CV help is very good with a good choice of templates and also templates for writing a covering letter.

What is sharp practice is the fact that if you let your subscription renew automatically, they will charge you £17.90/month to keep it going. However, when you go to cancel the subscription before getting automatically charged this, they give you the offer of a reduced rate of £3.00/month to stay on. If they had said it would cost this amount every month in the first place, I would have considered staying on but this sharp practice has put me off CVHelp now completely.

AVOID AVOID AVOID

words cannot describe how absolutely devastated I am right now. I took out a subscription in 2021 for £3, called up to cancel it a month later and since I never received an email from them I assumed it had been successfully cancelled. in the past 3 years they have sent me 0 emails about my account. not a single one.
I recently got online banking and have found that they've been charging me £17.90 ever since march 2021. absolutely gutted!
I rang them this morning to ask for a refund and was basically told it was "tough" but he could give me a refund of £8..... for the entire 3 years! He even told me I could reactivate my account for £3 a month, the cheek!
Was able to escalate it to another department and have to wait 2 days for a response, not very hopeful.
to top it all off I never even got a job with that CV I made with them :(

Please save yourself the trouble and find somewhere else to get a CV template, learn from my mistake and avoid CV help UK!!

We are genuinely sorry for any confusion. We would like to take the opportunity to explain the reason for the recurring charges.

To avoid any misunderstanding, this information is provided before, during, and after the subscription is bought. We also provide this information in the welcoming email sent during the purchase.

We have refunded you the requested amount as a sign of goodwill. Please allow 7 - 10 business days for the refund to be available on your end. We are certainly committed to changing your mind about us and ensuring that you receive the excellent customer service we pride ourselves on.

Thank you for your time!

Fraud 100%

Fraud! Total scam avoidance at all costs. The ad says 100% free. I called in January to improve my CV. I filled out the CV by myself, then I was sent to pay 1.90 pounds. I paid this, but they kept my bank details and for four months stole 17.90 pounds from my card every month. Even if I didn't call them again. I didn't even sign any contract with them for the duration. They didn't even let me know when they stole the money and why, even if they had my email. I only found out on April 26 that they were deducting 17.90 from me every month. I contacted them and they told me that I have an agreement with them. But I didn't sign anything with them, and I only had one entry on their website. I told them in two days to return the money to my card again, otherwise I am suing them, because they were stealing the money from my account against my will. Be careful, it's a total scam!
