Financial Fraud

I was not given any help at all. In fact I was told to take my question elsewhere.
I was then told I would get most of my money back. No way!

Scam
May 1, 2024

The option to pay 1$ request fee becomes a 30$ subscription (no permission of mine) and still could not help with my request. Do not advertise we have all your internet answers and then tell me it's not part of the service you provide.

I recently wrote about this underhanded, sleazy,scam of a company. I was told, (after i made a complaint) about the charges they quickly took from my bank account, that my money will be refunded. This was back in November of 2023. To this day I have not received the $69 that they say was refunded to me. GD liars, they even had the gaul to post that it was refunded. Here is the message I screen captured….Ps: I well even call out Sony Ps for having a company like this represent them, absolutely disgraceful

FEELS LIKE A SCAM, AND PROBABLY IS!

Previous review

Not a good company to do business with.They absolutely overcharge the so called services they offer. Talked to one of the Reps they have answering the phone, spoke like he didn't give a shit about how he comes across, and that alone makes it feel like a scam. Had to tell him, don't know how many times, that I wanted a refund, because they use questionable practices in the transactions e.g. not clarifying the amount properly. I was looking from a answer about Sony PlayStation, and for some reason, their site popped up,I was led to believe from Sony that it was a $1 charge, felt like they intercepted that message. STAY AWAY FROM HOWLY.COM

SCAM SCAM SCAAAAAAAM!
February 22, 2024

Just like over 40 other people here, I got SCAMMED by Howly. I was asked to pay $1 for their service and left my Credit Card info. And now they start billing me $55 monthly for a membership without my consent.

There's no way to cancel the membership; the procedure that they mention in their subscription policy is non existing. And in order to chat with them about these issues I need to log in, but I can't because I never received any log in details from them.

In every comment that Howly posts when being accused of scamming, they write: "Our subscription pricing is clearly displayed during the sign-up process, and we make efforts to ensure our users are fully aware of the terms before proceeding." That's complete b*llsh*t and they know it. It's all done on purpose.

They are SCAMMERS. So stay away from Howly my friend. And thank me later.

I didn't know what Howly.com was,I know I had to pay $1 for something, I'm not sure what, but it said it would be refunded back. It then asked if I wanted to subscribe to it,and I promptly declined. Then I just happened to be looking at my bank account and saw that they had taken $55 from my account. I promptly called them and asked for a refund of my money. The representative asked for my email address, which I provided. I had NEVER used this service as the representative had seen and stated that fact to me. I again asked if my money would be refunded and he said "you'll receive an email",I received the email and I was only refunded half of my money. They got $55,but only gave me $27.50 back.This is some bad business if you ask me. They plainly saw that I hadn't used this service I stated this makes the second time,and I am tired of it. Howly.com has to do better about their refunding. I should have gotten 100% of my $55 NOT 50%. I am very disappointed with this and dissatisfied.

February 8, 2024

I had gotten hold of them because I have locked myself out of my phone so in order to get on the website to even ask the question you have to put in a credit card, and told that I was only be a dollar and that my credit card would not be charged well they hooked me up with somebody. I asked the question, about 4 or 5 minutes later I got a response, and the response was unsatisfactory so I asked again something else along the same lines and another four or five minutes later I got a response so I finally said okay I can see that I'm not going to get the answer that I'm looking for and this is going to cost me too much money so I ended the chat only to find out today that I was charged $55 for maybe 10 minutes and after calling them and the gentleman on the other end told me that my refund will be processed within the next 24 hours and all I get is the email saying that subscriptions is not refundable I didn't sign up for any damn subscription for one thing this is ridiculous uncalled for and very unprofessional
