Skill share

I signed up for Skillshare last year for some photography courses. They courses were okay. Unfortunately I forgot about the subscription until I noticed the renewal charge on my credit card. That's where their 7-day refund policy catches you. I never received notification of the pending renewal nor did I receive notification of the renewal charge. They just hit the credit card which I caught at my end-of-month review of charges. And they are pretty firm on their 7-day refund. So if you do sign up, make sure you set a reminder for that one-year anniversary. They definitely value their $99 more than the good will of their customers.

I signed up for a 2-month free trial and probably used it for 2 days before I realized I could find the same kind of content on YouTube. I was charged $100 2 days ago. I read through multiple websites and it seems they do not give out refunds. With my $100 I don't even get the pro features. Bs. I'm a full time student with no time for a job, so this was a HUGE hit for me. My money was wasted on this stupid website- enjoy my food money skillshare!

Skillshare is both a tool used by myself and colleagues to expand knowledge for new and familiar technical concepts alike. Additionally, it is also a way to provide training to new hires. In the field of information technology, new advances happen almost every day, and as professionals, we are expected to be consistently ahead of the curve in support of the needs of our customers. Skillshare gives us a central location to receive training on technologies we need to be familiar with in order to effectively serve our clients or business.

DON'T use Skillshare if you don't want fraudulent charges made to your account. I signed up for a FREE trial and cancelled it before the trial was supposed to end to avoid any charges. The day after it was supposed to end i was STILL charged $96 to my debit account. This is unacceptable. I had the worst time trying to get a hold of the company to discuss this and when I finally did, their answers were completely ridiculous. They beat around the bush and on top of that, ONLY want to be contacted via email. No phone number available. So to avoid any random charges made to your account then don't bother even signing up at all. Not worth the headache.

I had signed up for skillshare for the free 2 month trial. I have enjoyed my time there but however, I was charged 99 dollars that I don't have immediately after the trial ended. I know this happens but why isn't there a reminder like netflix? I had cancelled my premium membership but it seems that I am still being charged a full year. I am just a teen from Malaysia only signing up for the trial to try skillshare but now, I am 99 dollars short which is equivalent to 400+ in my country. Needless to say I don't have that much money. I have contacted skillshare's email before. 4 times. And was replied with the "our team will get back to you as soon as possible" it could be true but I have checked, I waited for a full 12 hours (from 9 am in New York) till 9 pm but I have received no reply from anyone from their team. I have never felt so cheated and I asked for a refund in all the emails.

I was looking for a class to learn my indigenous language and skillshare popped up as the first result. I thought that I would try to go on skillshare again when I saw it because they were clearly implying they have classes for what I wanted to learn so I put my card info in thinking they weren't gonna bill me until the end of the year or whatever. But when I got onto skillshare there were no classes that were teaching that language which upset me a bit but what really got me angry was the fact that they charged me. They stated that each customer can only get 1 refund which I already used about a year ago when something similar happened.
Skillshare does not value learning new skills as they advertise, they claim that they're the easiest way to learn new skills and they teach them to all members. But like I said earlier they don't value learning or education they, don't have respect for their member they are scammers and unless you want to learn basic skills they are not as reliable as they claim to be. As you can see in my photos below that they are trying to trick people into giving them their money. And I was unfortunate enough to fall for it twice please Don't be an idiot like me and just learn what you want on youtube it really will save you time and money.

I loved a lot of great content is completely amazing, but it all has the
Quality of a paid product only. You can tell that they truly care about
Their content.
Finding something worth learning is extremely easy. I believe the
Product quality is top-notch and you will likely feel the same if you
Just pick a course and start!
As a student, using SkillShare as a supplement to my studies has
Proved invaluable. The git course in particular has taken my
Professionalism and efficiency to the next level.

I am a student and I live in Ghana so $99 is a lot to me. My phone got stolen that is why I was unable to unsubscribe. I've learned my lesson and be very cautious next time but I need the money back. They can't do this to me. I've only used the site once and I found out they didn't really have what I was looking for.
This is bad, they should give us some kind of warning and a better way to assure us of refund. I have contacted there support mail but all I received was that they've acknowledged my complaint and would get back to me as soon as possible. I'm pleading, I can't afford it please

I signed up for a 1 year subscription for $99 back in July 2021. I only wanted to use Skillshare for 1 year, so after I signed up, I went into my account and disabled autorenew.

I receive my credit card bill in August 2022, there is a charge from Skillshare for $167. I immediately logged into my skillshare account and started a chat with a customer service rep. I told them what happened and said I wanted a refund. They looked into my account and said, "Sorry, it's been more than 14 days since we charged you - according to our terms & conditions, there is no refunds"

I went back and forth with the rep stressing that I turned off autorenew - same stock response. They never sent me an email prior to being recharged letting me know that my subscription was going to autorenew - and at a higher price.

Stay away from this company - you can find all the same instructors on Udemy, and when you buy a course, you own it for life. Pay once - that's it. Plus, Udemy is always running sales, so you can buy an excellent course for as little as $9.

Buyer beware with Skillshare should be their slogan...
