I also got sucked in through an ad on Instagram as their faces looked pretty cool and the ad said it was only $1.
I paid the $1 and downloaded the app. After I downloaded the app I immediately got charged $6.99 I tried to cancel as I never agreed to this.
6 days later, they charged my card $29.99. I never even downloaded anything or agreed to a subscription.
When I contacted them, they said "Just to reassure you, your payment was processed according to the subscription you signed up for, which unfortunately wasn’t canceled before the renewal date.
That said, we’ve gone ahead and issued a 50% refund of your last payment as a gesture of goodwill. You should see the amount back in your account within a few business days (the exact timing may vary depending on your bank)."
So after charging my card for $1, then $6, then $29 without me ever even downloading anything and me cancelling immediately, they are going to give me $15 back - WOW, how generous.
SCAM SCAM SCAM!
