    I guess I am another person in a long line of people who got hoodwinked by "free trial" bs. Just toss the money on the fire for what I got, well, the birthday card I sent did manage to make the person smile. Then got a nice rude email from customer support.

    Very disappointed. I bought it by accident and cancelled it right away, but they charged me anyway. The card just sends the link not the real card. Sometimes the message for the receipt doesn’t even show on the card.

      I ditto what other reviewers say about Blue Mountain. They have deceptive billing practices and they need to be stopped. They automatically renew you when it is NOT supposed to be renewed automatically. They even send a email stating your subscription has expired and that it won't be renewed, but it is. I am disputing the charge with my credit card company. I should have researched the company before subscribing the first time. If I had done my homework and had seen all of their horrible reviews, I would have never dealt with them in the first place. This was a lesson learned the hard way. This company should be fined for deception billing practices and shut down for horrible customer service.

      Deceptive Free Trial. Beware of this company's billing tactics. I signed up today for a seven-day free trial. After creating one card, they cancelled my seven-day free trial and opened up a new membership and immediately billed my credit card. I emailed them to explain what was done and they said no refunds.

      This company is a scam. They sign you up for automatic renewal without your knowledge or consent. When the new charge hits a year later, even when you call the same day, they refuse to refund the unauthorized charge. I thought forced enrollment in auto-renewals without consent was now illegal. If it is not, it should be. Give your business to someone else who doesn't build their model on scamming customers.

      Beware of this company's billing tactics. I signed up for the 7 day "free trial" and was immediately billed through my PayPal account for a year's subscription at the cost of $29.99 and was set-up for automatic renewal. When I contacted their customer service via email (they do not publish a phone number-red flag), I was told that there is "clear wording on the web page that states that once you click the button "begin Membership" while on the third and final step, it will automatically end the free trial, charge your payment information on file, and begin your paid membership". Let me tell you, I am a savvy online consumer, and I found their website to be anything BUT "clear" in their wording. After doing some research online regarding this company their are many complaints about this exact issue! I think they purposely designed their website to be confusing so that you unknowingly sign up for the year's subscription while you only want the "free trial".

      Beware of this company's billing tactics. They make it impossible for you to cancel your membership. I signed up today for a seven day free trial. After creating a couple of cards, I was directed to click on the membership button to confirm my membership. Once I did that, they cancelled my seven day free trial and opened up a new membership and immediately billed my credit card. I emailed them to explain what was done. Their reply was that there will be no further charges after the month I signed up for. I plan on disputing this charge with my credit card company. I guarantee the charge will be removed permanently. You should always dispute a charge with any business who is scamming you.

      Not good, people I send cards to not getting them even company states they are sent. They don’t update cards a lot. When you go to cancel, they don’t prorate but make you fog to next year. I hope they cancel because I hear they automatically charge your card even though you say you want to cancel. Don’t subscribe to this service. Waste of money.

      I purchased a one year subscription to Blue Mountain Cards and sent 5 cards in the year. I didn't like the cards; I found the selection to be limited and the graphics of poor quality. A charge of $29.95 was put onto my charge on July 4, 2025 as an automatic renewal, although I never signed up for a renewal. When I wrote them to ask for a refund they wrote back that the payment was non-renewable.

      I purchased a card with a group of teachers during the pandemic for another teacher. It turns out I’ve been paying $40 bucks a year ish for the last five years - $200 for one card!!! What a great business model! There didn’t seem like there was a simple way to cancel. I’ve waited online for 20 to 30 minutes several times trying to reach a person so I could cancel my subscription, once I realized I still had this subscription. Finally, today I was able to reach a human and cancel. Avoid just on principle!

      Beware: you will be charged on a recurring basis at a rate of 6.99 per month. You are not prompted to automatically review. That is the option that is preselected for you. So you pay and pay until you wake upo and ask who or what is Blue Mountain? Then you can try to cancel. Hope the cancellation happens. This is not a good service for an occasional user.

      Like so many others who've posted bad experiences with Blue Mountain, their Cards are great but their business ethics are abysmal as they purposely make it impossible to cancel your subscription/free subscription quickly. I used their website to cancel my subscription on May 1 2025 only to have them bill me on May 31 with an email thanking me for resubscribing which of course is a fiction.

      Save yourself time and frustration when "unsubscribing" in the future by immediately disputing their most recent charge with your credit card company so that all future charges will blocked b/c future charges from Blue Mountain are inevitable. They are a horrible company that won't stop billing you (and me unfortunately). Their monthly fee at $6.99 is small so they're probably banking on the notion that they can continue to rip us off but they pushed me too far and I want to join the rest of who describe them as a scam, rip--off etc and stop them from bleeding me each month.

      I asked her if she could help me at least with the last charge "renewal", and she categorically stated that Blue Mountain does not issue refunds on memberships. Period. I am fuming. Who do they think they are to treat customers like this? We work very hard for our money to be practically stolen like that. I find their practices deceptive and unethical to say the least.

      I tried BlueMountain ecards for two years. I only used it a few times over that period. The selection of cards that are included in the subscription are just not very good and the selection is very limited. You can upgrade for additional charge, but those are not that good either. This year, the renewal date occurred while I was on vacation and away from home. 4 days later I contacted BlueMountain to request that the subscription be cancelled and to reverse the charges. They refused. I contacted my Credit Card company and their policy is that they cannot accept a dispute unless the charge is made AFTER the the request to cancel the subscription. I think it is bad business for BlueMountain to refuse to honor my request for a refund of the charge---but I guess it is the only way they can stay in Business since their service is so bad. All I can say is if you are considering subscribing, reconsider!

      I went to their site to send ecard for a birthday for tomorrow. I chose the $6.99 option for one month trial. Their system defaulted to one year membership fee, after they had my credit card info for automatic renewals and no place on their site to edit this membership. And, their site also says "no card pending to be sent", even though I'd chosen one. Then, I did a search and find numerous complaints on 4 complaint sites of this happening to others. So, within the hour, I called my credit card company to block my account and reverse the charge which was already pending, and to get new card. I'll have to take time to follow up on this, after it has posted, as well as warn my card recipient of any solicitations, because they also have her info. What a hassle. Beware.
