    I had a problem with my washing machine and when I googled it I got someone right away from JustAnswer and 'for $5 we will have someone answer your question', so I thought it might be worth a try. All I got was "The appliance technician is working on your question and will respond on this page and via email" and it was supposed to be 24/7. Well almost 3 hours later and I have heard nothing. All I want now is a refund and to NOT get in the loop of being charged for a monthly service. I am super disappointed and think this a crock of lies. If you can help great, but if you can't don't lie. I already wrote them to remove me and stop any charges... I will wait to see what they do. I hope they do the right thing.

    I was skeptical at first but couldn't solve my garden tractor electrical issue in spite of years of mechanical experience. I was immediately connected to a technician who asked a couple of questions and then asked if I was willing to pay an additional $25 to pay for a phone call. Again, I was reluctant but desperate for an answer and consented. Very shortly, Donald called. He was professional and sharp. The fix was simple but I never would have found it on my own since it is a double safety issue and the manufacturer, I'm sure intentionally, does not make it public. Saved me a lot of time and the cost of a service call.

The BCM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. The only thing the mechanic forgot to tell me that the BCM is not a plug and play. So a dealership or a tech savvy shop needs to download and upload vehicle info to new BCM.

    Response to question was immediate with specialist quickly securing vet, Dr. Rachel. Dr. Rachel was/is highly professional and skilled, immediately putting me at ease. I cannot say enough good about this doctor, she was fantastic. I was most impressed when she quickly came online and immediately asked a very specific question. "Are his gum pink?" and she offered to call me rather than type back and forth, as I explained I'd have to check. I accepted, and she called within 2-3 minutes. In the meantime, I checked his gums and they were pink. The reason for the question she explained when she called and I told her yes, they were pink, is because if they weren't, it meant he could be bleeding internally. How wonderful of her.

    She didn't frighten me by explaining the question when she asked i.e. "Are his gums pink because if they're not, he could be bleeding internally." She was not vague, such as "What do his gums look like?" She was caring, specific, and to the point, without frightening me, and I cannot thank her enough. I immediately trusted her, and we continue with the discussion. I would highly recommend her, and this service. Thank you so much. And, yes, as far as the outcome, in her professional opinion, it was just residual small bleeding after the constipation, common, and would soon resolve. Which it did.

    Hello Suzy,

    Thank you for contacting JustAnswer.

    We're sorry for any inconvenience. It looks like you accepted a free trial offer to try our membership program. At the end of the trial, the membership bills automatically to avoid disruptions in service. I have opted you out of the membership.

    As a courtesy, I have processed a refund of your most recent charge. The funds are made available to your bank the next business day, however, the bank may take 3-5 business days to release the funds back to your account depending on their policy. I assure you that moving forward you will not see any recurring membership charges. Your account is now on a pay-per-question basis and you will only be charged when you post a question.

    If we can be of further assistance, please let us know.

    Hello Cheryl,

    Thank you for letting us know about this, we're sorry for any confusion that you experienced around the payment.

    First, I wanted to assure you that, after looking into your account, there is no membership on the account so you will experience no recurring billing.

    Regarding the other charges that you're seeing, an initial $5 deposit is required at the time the question is posted and the balance of the question price is collected once an Expert responds to the question.

    This information regarding the deposit is displayed on the page where the customer is prompted to submit their payment details and questions are posted only when the customer acknowledges and accepts the payment terms.

    An Expert responded to your question and it appears that you rated the response from the antiques appraiser as Excellent, which is why you received a charge for the balance due.

    An overview of this process can be found on the How It Works page here: http://ww2.justanswer.com/how-justanswer-works

    Because JustAnswer is committed to customer satisfaction, we offer our customers a self-service refund tool. If you should require a refund in the future, you can process it up to 30 days after your payment was made by following this link:

    Hello Kandace,

    We're so sorry to hear about your dog, we know tha tthis must be tough for you. Our service is definitely not set up to handle emergency medical or veterinary incidents and given the extreme nature of the incident that you described in the question that you posted, we definitely would have recommended getting your dog to a vet as quickly as possible.

    Regarding the billing on the account, we can see that there was only one membership charge processed and it appears that that was refunded yesterday, the initial $5.00 deposit for the first question was also refunded. You may want to check with the bank or card issuer to confirm the charges and refunds but it can take up to 3-5 days for the charges to settle out.

    We've had some very hot and humid days this week. When I took our dog outside to potty she began this odd behavior after only a few minutes. She began making a "chuffing", choking sound. I was obviously very concerned and found the "Just Ask" site while browsing the internet about her behavior. I found the site, described the situation and in short order Dr. Sarah replied. Turned out our dog was reverse sneezing due to over-stimulation of her nose...aka allergic reaction to whatever pollen, etc. was in the yard. What a relief! I had my answer in a very short time and the consultation fee was reasonable and so worth it. Our vet is actually located a short distance away, but I wanted immediate information and that's just what I got. I would definitely recommend this service for anyone with "fur babies". Thank you Dr. Sarah!

    Although I am not the only one mislead about cost of membership, you make little effort to improve information. I also expected to pay the small amount of €5,-- but first €36,- was charged for a question that was never solved. Communication was impossible. Exactly a week after, €46,-- were charged for membership. Don't come with poor excuses, as seen on this forum, but be a man and prove your name worthy: just answer! Only this answer is acceptable: total refund of €82,-- within 5 working days. Since you can decide to ignore this complaint I feel obliged to inform my credit company of your actions.

    Hi Bruce,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us about this. We're sorry about the confusion and the lack of response, you definitely should have received a response sooner than you did.

    Regarding the charge, there may be some confusion there, there wasn't a charge processed for the remainder deposit for the question, this was just an authorization, similar to what you'd see at a hotel or a car rental firm. Since you didn't receive a response however, the authorization should fall off of the card naturally.

    Hello Eleanor,

    Thanks for letting us know about this experience. We're sorry for any confusion that you experienced. While we do have technicians on the site that can assist you with your Microsoft software questions, we are not affiliated with Microsoft in any way.

    We're sorry for the confusion about the good faith deposit. An initial $5 deposit is required at the time the question is posted and the balance of the question price is collected once an Expert responds to the question.

    This information regarding the deposit is displayed on the page where you were prompted to submit your payment details, and your question is posted only when you acknowledge and accept the payment terms.

    An Expert, Jason, responded to your question which is why you received a charge for the balance due of $65.00CAD however, the Expert isn't paid unless you’re satisfied with the help received and rate the service accordingly.

    It also does appear that you had opted into the membership program after you had posted the initial question.

    At this time I can confirm that your charges have been refunded and the question is closed. You will not see any further charges unless you come back to the site to post another question.

    Please feel free to reach back out to us if you need any further assistance or have any questions about the service and we're happy to help.

    I am a 20 year old Law student. I came only JustAnswer to ask questions on my health as it was affordable and quick, as there said that I could get a response within minutes. Well, I did not. I waited for about 3 days and I did not get a response from the doctor. With that, I cancelled my subscription. This was in February. Just yesterday I was checking through my bank account transactions as I do that every half a year and I was shocked to find out that I have been billed the whole time.

    Upset, I spoke to customer service and she were reluctant to refund me. There is even evidence that I have not logged in at all after that one question. She even doubted that I cancelled it at all and asked me how I did it. I am 20 and a Law student at that, I'm sure I know how to cancel subscriptions and read Terms and Conditions. I was fully aware. However, it is not my fault that there was a technical issue. It is unfair for me to pay $271.86 for a service I did not even receive/ use!!!

    I did tell the service staff that I will still pay the USD5 as I did ask a question, but the $271! I told her and she said that she could only refund me 4 months worth. She said policy is that they can only refund up to 30 days but why should I bear the consequences of the website??? I am very upset about this. This is close to extortion. Hoping I can be refunded the other month and some other charges that the customer service did not explain to me when I asked nicely. I have all the screenshots. Hope this changes and no one goes through this. Especially not a student who just needs some advice.

    Asking a question for $5 is actually putting your credit card into a system at JustAnswer that does not let you remove it. You are in a 7 day loop, where you will be charged $46 for a membership. Emails that may warn you of this go to your junk mail box and if you did not catch this extra fine print when you asked your question, your SAVED card will be AUTO charged. I Just Happened to be looking through my junk mail and discovered that I had one day to go before being charged, and when I logged in, I could not remove my credit card information. I was able to cancel, but I am really upset that my credit card remains. I've requested to close my account, but still have security concerns. When a consumer removes their card, there can be no question of their intentions.

    When I stumbled across this website it said a free answer, then it was pay $5 and after that's paid they then take another $64 without consent and meanwhile they don't send you an answer within a reasonable time frame. Your free question doesn't exist, the scam is once they have your credit card they have an open access to your account. And they will take as much as they can, between the subscription that generates automatically, and them taking whatever they please, sure I will get the money back eventually but the thieving scum shouldn't have touched my account period other than the agreed $5 and even that was only suppose to be if I had additional questions.

    Updated on 06/21/2018; Just Answer for the record, @ no stage did you get permission to take an additional $64 and within seconds of paying the $5 to post question an additional $64 was taken. After paying the $5 it said once paid it will transfer me to a legal practitioner, I reasoned to talk straight to a legal advisor it may be worth the $64 and posted the question, only to be they will get back to me with an answer. To me that ain't worth $64 so I closed the account and never bothered with the answer. It had already taken the $64 despite saying it will be another $64 if they answer and I like the answer. They have refunded the $5 but for some reason the $64 remains unrefunded, my account was closed hours before they decided to answer and at no stage did they have any authority to take the $64 but that never stopped them.

    Updated on 06/27/2018: To begin with JustAnswer refunded the $5, after waiting a few weeks, I had to call for them to refund the $64 they had no right to take. At no stage did they have authority to take the $64 and I would have thought when refunding the $5 they would have automatically replaced the money they took after my account was closed. Had I not called them they most likely would have never refunded the money.

    Thank you for getting in touch with us about this experience, we're sorry for any frustration that you experienced.

    In looking at your account, it appears that you were only charged the $5.00 deposit for the free trial. The $35.00 charge came a week later at the end of the free week trial and it appears that you had posted a question under the membership as well.

    With regard to the Experts, it does look like there was an issue with one of the responses as you were asking a question about reprogramming an electronic key at home, this cannot be done by anyone under any circumstance as being able to do so would make stealing a car with an electronic key very easy. Unfortunately, this is one of those issues that can only be handled by the registered owner of a vehicle, at the dealership. The mechanic did try to explain this to you as well.

I had four different types of porcelain bowls and plates and the system said that I had asked a similar question and was I sure I wanted to continue - I knew they were different so I selected yes to continue.

    I pay for the system monthly and some months don't ask any questions.

See a portion of their answer to me: "Unfortunately, when the billing of a membership is tied to PayPal, once the membership has been revoked there is nothing that we can do to restore the billing.

    Get peace of mind with unlimited* answers for all your tv questions. I have a 2008 Samsung digital TV that's worked great all these years on cable and, recently, with a Roku Streaming Stick +. I cut cable 10 days ago, and now I get an HDCP error. I've reset the display to 1080p and then to 720p, so it won't try to read everything as 4k, but it still gives me the error. Aric, a TV technician, suggested two things I'd already tried through Roku's tech support: 1. HDCP error simply means the TV has lost communication with the Roku. Shut the TV off, then unplug the power cord from the Roku stick. Disconnect the stick from the set and reconnect it. Plug the power cord back into it. Turn on the TV and let me know what happens. 2. Then try the other HDMI port on the TV and let me know.

    I told him there's only one HDMI port and asked for any other suggestions. This was at 5:05 p.m. Saturday, 27 May 2018. This cost me $5. Then I got this ad:

    27 May 2018 05:06 And I got this msg: "Aric has referred you to a new TV Technician. You'll get a response here and by email." The new TV tech, not surprisingly, never appeared. Because, clearly, the answers were canned (an easy $5), and the whole thing seems to be an attempt to get you to have them call you because you're frustrated, and they get more of your money. Also, they initially put through a charge of $19 on my credit card, which is nearly 4 times the $5 charge the site eventually tells you about. And if you want to rate the experience, you are required to rate the person 3 stars or above to give him/her credit. Seriously? For wasting $5 and my time? Ripoff. I copied the whole thing so I could report it somewhere.

    Hello Judy,

    We're really sorry to hear about the frustration that you've encountered. It kind of sounds like your experience didn't really go as intended.

    It looks like Aric opened the question up to other Experts in the same field so that someone else could respond. it also looks like another technician, Richard, has responded and is waiting for some feedback from you.

    We've sent you an email with instructions on how to get back into the conversation with Richard to see if his trouble-shooting tips may help resolve the issue.

    We also wanted to make sure that it's clear that the phone call is completely optional. Some customers find the immediacy of the phone call to be a really helpful feature but we realize it's not for everyone.

    If you have any other questions about the site or your account, please respond to the email that we've sent you or call our Customer Care team at 1-800-509-5721 and we're happy to help.

    Was on the Google site trying to figure out how to stop the Google popups on my smartphone. Things are moving along slowly when all of sudden a message pops up that says you have joined Just Answer. I did not think about it much at the time but later I found two charges on my credit card, one for $5 and one for $39. Unless Google gave them my card number I have no idea how all this happened and for all this money I did not even get my question answered. I did find out how they stay out of jail with this SCAM. When you call their customer support they are all peaches and cream and refund your money fairly easily. What a way to make a living.

    Hello Joseph,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us about this, we're sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience on the site. We're sorry for any confusion that you may have experienced.

    The phone call does come with an additional cost however it is not obligatory in any way. We've found that many customers prefer the immediate satisfaction and context that a quick chat on the phone can offer, however, you are always welcome to continue chatting with any of the Experts through the Q&A chat on the site if that is easier.

    In looking at the conversation that you had with the mechanic, it appears that you did receive an answer to your Car question within 30 minutes however it seems that you may have had same difficulty in reconnecting with the Expert again after receiving the answer.

    We will reach out to you privately to resolve any outstanding concerns but you can also reach out to our Customer Care team at support@justanswer.com or by phone at 1-800-509-5721.

    We look forward to speaking with you.

    This was my first time using this site. The technician was polite and got back to me within 24 hours. There is a $5 charge to ask a question and then when they respond with a solution, they charge an additional $29. After exchanging 3-4 emails, and explaining the issue a couple of times, as they asked, he comes back with "if it's over a year old, it would cost more to repair." He could have said that immediately and not dragged this out, as I had told him I'd changed out the battery about a year ago. If that's the kind of answer they're going to give, it's definitely not worth the additional $29.

    Hi there Denise,

    Thanks for reaching out to us about this experience. We're sorry to hear that you didn't feel that the service was of value.

    One of the tough things about trouble shooting items remotely is that the technicians are only able to work with the information that's been provided them, Sometimes this does require a couple of volleys back and forth to be able to accurately troubleshoot a problem.

    Hello Barbara,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us about this experience. It looks like there may have been some confusion about the billing for the site.

    I'm sorry for the confusion about the good faith deposit. An initial $5 deposit is required at the time the question is posted and the balance of the question price is collected once an Expert responds to the question.

    This information regarding the deposit is displayed on the page where the customer is prompted to submit their payment details and questions are posted only when the customer acknowledges and accepts the payment terms.

    An Expert responded to your question which is why you received a charge for the balance due of $31.00, however, the Expert isn't paid unless you’re satisfied with the help received and rate the service accordingly.

    In looking at your account it appears that you were able to get in touch with our Customer Care team and we've processed a refund for all of the charges that you incurred.

    I Googled about a port's pin-out for an electronic device. Didn't find the answer, but wound up on JustAnswer.com. Hmmm... $5 for an answer? Sounds fishy, but read and understand everything before authorizing payment. It was hard to get to the point where you typed your question, because of all the offers for faster answers (for more money), but finally I reached where I could type the question. The important thing for me to thoroughly read EVERYTHING to understand what I obligating myself too... and that was $5. I didn't accept ANY "upgraded plans."

    I submitted the question, day or two went by, and the answer was in the form of a person who had just "logged on" and "saw" my question. He/she asked if I still needed the question answered that late. I replied "no help needed" since I'd already experimented with, and figured out the correct pin-out. End of story. Or... not? Caution born of experience suggested I check my credit card transactions. I did. The $5 charge was there, but on the following day, and without explanation or my consent/knowledge, JustAnswer.com had ran another charge through the card... this time for $29.00.

    I began to initiate a chargeback and probably should have, but gave the kind folks 24-hours to return the money. I'll check the account tomorrow and take it from there. Either way, I'm in no mood about this to argue. My biggest worry, founded or unfounded, is continued charges anytime in the future. The latest practice with some companies is to wait six month or a year, then add the accumulated monthly charges into a whopping sum. It works; most people can be talked into paying at least a portion of the sum. Doesn't "half-price" of anything sound great?

    Here's the response I finally got for those two fees: "Welcome to JustAnswer! My name is Harry and I am happy to be assisting you today.

    I was very pleased with the rapid response. Although I was busy at work the gentleman jumped right on my problem. Have not had a chance yet to work on fixing those problems but they all sound like it will cure my problem. It's like having your own personal mechanic without getting ripped off for not knowing. I had a friend who owned the shop. I can always go to him pick his brain about what my problems on my vehicles. In fact he built and put in the motor on my truck. Unfortunately recently he has passed unexpectedly. He will be missed as a dear friend and my mechanic so I am happy to know I have another Avenue now with this program to help solve any problem that may come up. Once again thanks guys.

    Tech was quick to respond to my issue, even though I wasn’t able to fix my problem but I was happy with the service they offered. In the future if an issue comes up I will definitely call on them and will recommend to others.

    The HVAC technician (Bryan) was very knowledgeable and led me to tracking the problem to a faulty condenser fan motor. Previously I had tried to troubleshoot the issue but could not determine the exact cause. Bryan stayed with me as I followed his directions to determine the root cause. I ordered the replacement motor and will install when it arrives. I am sure this has saved me many hundreds of dollars and all for $28. Well worth it. I highly recommend this method.

    Came home Saturday evening and my small dog wouldn't open one eye. Frantically I got on the computer and see what to do. Found this business and got a referral. The doctor I talked to was terrific. He was calm, and gave me over the counter solutions. I irrigated his eye with saline, and used a antihistamine eye drop. The next day was better, and on the third day he was back to his snack stealing self.

    I went to this site to ask a tax question. As directed, I typed in my question and received a response telling me that I would need to pay a $5.00 deposit to have my question forwarded and then it would be $33.00 to receive the answer. I put in my card info and the site closed me out. I received nothing. Of course, I immediately checked my bank account and sure enough, the entire $38.00 had been debited. I called and spoke to "Ivy" who told me that somehow my question had been answered and that an account had been created. She wanted my email to look up my account. I told her that I didn't give an email or a password and I never received an answer to my question.

    She insisted that there was an account, apparent in purgatory somewhere and that she would help me access it. I want my money refunded. At this point, I don't have any faith in this site or its people. I wouldn't trust any answer. The correct thing to do would be to have refunded the portion for the answer that I didn't get. The initial $5.00, I agreed to. DO NOT PAY THESE PEOPLE. DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR FINANCIAL INFO. Now, I have to call the bank because lord only knows what else they'll try to charge for.

    Hi Amy,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us about this. I'm sorry to hear about any frustration that you encountered. It kind of sounds like you didn't finish registering the account when you were going through the process of posting your question and it sounds like a guest account might have been created.

    If you didn't provide an email address when proceeding through the registration process, there is no way for us to notify you that you have received a reply from an Expert.

    We'll reach out to you using the contact information that you provided here and attempt to gather other pertinent details that we'd need to locate your account.

    I specifically came to JustAnswer.com because I needed to verify before purchasing aftermarket wheels that no problems would be caused by changing the size from staggered 18" X 8" front and 18" X 8.5" rear to 18" X 8" all around. The mechanic said, "You will not lose any stability and would not notice the difference in race cornering situations, not normal or even fast driving." Based on this answer, I proceeded with the purchase. Now the car vibrates terribly at highway speeds and has become dangerously unstable. In a subsequent consultation with a different JustAnswer.com expert, the mechanic said, "They (the wheels) are staggered for a reason, your mechanic gave bad advice." Pardon me, but that's exactly why I used JustAnswer.com in the first place. Now I'm going to be out $1,500 for non-refundable wheels and tires that can't be used, as well as labor costs.

    I asked a question. Received answer. I canceled membership & today my bank statement shows I have been charged a total of $22.00. The membership that I canceled on the same day was still charged to my account $15.00. In return this amount put my account in overdraft. I canceled so I should not have been charged a membership fee. I knew I could not afford this fee at this time. This site caused me more trouble than it is worth... I will NEVER use this site again & will tell everyone I know what a ripoff this site is.

    Hello Teri,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us about this. We apologize for any confusion that you experienced.

    We can see that you did indeed opt out of the membership on the same day that you had enrolled and I want to assure you that you will see no recurring billing.

    The charges that you are seeing are the charges related to the question that you posted to the site about your Dog, a Vet responded and gave you feedback regarding the medication that your dog had accidentally consumed. It also appears that you provided a bonus to the Vet for their assistance after you rated them positively.

    We will reach out privately to discuss your account with you and make sure that any lingering questions that you might have are resolved.

    Regards,

    I call technical issue on my system. It was with Microsoft Windows. When I got to their site it said that there was a five dollar refundable deposit so I hooked it up to my PayPal account and went forward and I know that they’re going to charge my PayPal account $37. I would’ve gone on to get a hold of a Microsoft Windows tech. I feel like they were very dishonest and underhanded with their billing practices. On the plus side their tech was very helpful but when I called to complain about the pricing the woman that I talk to was very unhelpful and rude.

    Hello Lisa,

    Thank you for reaching out to us about this.

    We're glad to hear that you were happy with the assistance that you received from the technician but we’re truly sorry for any confusion caused by our billing system and we’d like to take a moment to explain how customers pay for our service using PayPal.

    Before posting a question on JustAnswer, PayPal customers are asked to provide a deposit for the full amount of the question. This amount can vary depending on the category the question is asked in, and the amount of detail you request for your answer. The reason behind this deposit is to assure both the Expert and the customer that the transaction will be successful.

    Customer are asked to authorize the charge twice prior to the charge actually being processed. once on the payment page on our site, and a second time on the payment authorization page on the PayPal payment portal.

    We're happy to address any further concerns that you may have and we will be sure to review the call that you had so that we can be sure that our Customer Care agents are responding to customer concerns with the utmost courtesy.

    If we can be of any further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach back out to us at support@justanswer.com or by phone at 1-800-509-5721

    I went to JustAnswer to find out what might be wrong with my dog. The fee said $5.00, and $23.00 to talk to a vet by phone. I just used email, but when I looked at my bank statement, the total charge was $28.00! I am totally mad and feel like I was ripped off. The vet was helpful, but it seems like false advertising.

    Hello Tracy,

    Thanks for getting in touch with us about your recent experience on the site. We hope that Mia is feeling better by now.

    We'd like to apologize for any confusion that you experienced in navigating the payment on the site. The $23.00 was not the value of a phone call offer on your account, instead, it was the remaining deposit for speaking to the Vet.

    This information is presented to customers on the payment page where you entered your billing information and is presented at various other places as well. The Order History page will detail all charges associated with a single conversation, and you should also have received a receipt email detailing the charges.

    We are glad to hear that you were very happy with Dr. Salkin's assistance and we do hope that we've been able to address all of your concerns about the billing but if you have any further questions about your account, please don't hesitate to reach back out to us and we're happy to help.
