Updated by user Aug 08, 2024

I’m disappointed with my recent experience with Chegg. I requested a refund for an authorized purchase, but instead of resolving the issue, Chegg's response was to suggest I look for alternative options.

Despite my repeated attempts to address the problem directly, they failed to provide a satisfactory resolution or issue the refund. Their customer service approach was unhelpful and frustrating.

Original review updated Jul 24, 2024
Dear Chegg Customer Support,
I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction regarding an unauthorized charge on my account. Despite canceling my membership, which expired on June 21, 2024, I was billed $17.33 on July 19, 2024.

This action is unacceptable and demands immediate rectification.
I demand a full refund of the unauthorized charge.

Failure to do so promptly will result in further escalation of this matter through legal avenues and reporting to consumer protection agencies. I expect a response confirming the initiation of my refund within 48 hours.
Please acknowledge receipt of this email and provide confirmation of the refund process at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
D.C

No longer needed it too much to pay the decision to cancel a Chegg subscription often stems from lack of usage, cost considerations, exploration of alternatives, temporary academic needs, dissatisfaction with service quality, and improvements in academic performance.

Fraud Charges

AI Highlights
  • They charge my card for unused services.
  • Even after cancellation I'm still charged.
  • Support is unavailable by phone and services aren't as promised.

They randomly charge my card for services I'm not using. Even after canceling my subscription I'm still charged.

They do not have permission. I will have to cancel my card.

YOU CANNOT GET ANYONE ON THE PHONE OR TO REPLY TO ANYTHING!! Plus the services aren't as promised which is the reason I canceled in the 1st place!

User's recommendation: Run..

Doesn't deliver quality

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • Answers are often wrong.
  • Premium plan lacks chapter-level customization and downgrading; disputes can block signups and records aren't purged.
Contains 1 confidential file for company representatives

1) answers are often wrong

2) premium plan that gives test prep help does not customize for chapters or concepts being tested, only for the whole course so it is useless on tests and midterms

3) once you have the premium plan then you can NEVER downgrade. they will tell you to sign up and then they can change it to the basic plan, but then they don't refund your money.

4) if you ever dispute a charge because of problem #3, then they block you from signing up ever again.

5) customer service agents don't understand the software and are unable to resolve the problems you are trying to resolve

6) even after you cancel with them they keep your records forever and refuse to purge your information

User's recommendation: stay away from chegg. find another service
