I initially purchased the €0.60 introductory offer and was surprised when a €39.95 recurring subscription was activated after the 48-hour trial.
I contacted FileWorld support immediately, explained the situation and requested a refund. Their response was extremely fast and professional. Antonella handled my request promptly, cancelled the subscription and processed a full refund of €39.95 without any unnecessary complications.
The refund was confirmed by my bank shortly afterwards.
Although I was not happy with the way the trial converted into a recurring subscription, I am very satisfied with how quickly and professionally the customer support resolved the issue.
Thank you, Antonella, for the excellent assistance.
Julie was very helpful with quick email responses
Take Note of the 48 hour window before a subscription is taken, however, my query was dealt with promptly and I did receive a refund and cancellation of subscription. Thank you.
Fileworld provides a lot of great services. User frendly, easy to use. And i really appreciate their costumer-service!
Laure handled my request within a few hours. The refund was processed immediately. Laure took care of my issue quickly, efficiently, and with a customer-oriented approach. Excellent service!
Huge thanks to Julie for helping me resolve an issue with an unwanted subscription! As soon as I realised I had been charged €40, I contacted them and explained the whole situation. Julie and the team sorted everything out within 24 hours, thanks for all the help!
Honest/correct and very quick reply to any question 👌
they trapped me with a subscriprtion, basically i just downloaded 2 files and they tried to charge me for 50 euro later, but there was none on my card, so i cancelled the subscription and one week later they anyways charged me.
Julie was very helpful and professional in resolving my refund request.
Excellent and fast customer service! I had an issue with an unintended subscription, and Julie was incredibly helpful. She understood the situation immediately, canceled the subscription, and processed my refund without any hassle. Thank you so much, Julie!
Total scam! They charge you a small amount for a file conversion ($0.60) and automatically sign you up for a subscription ($39.99) without communicating that clearly.
Review Update - file world have since reached out & refunded the balance which was nice of them, in future you need to be a bit more clear one off conversions result in a subscription setup, it was not obvious.
Just to be clear the service worked really well it’s just the vague trial trap that was bad.
Im satisfied with my experience and Julie helped me getting back my refund without and further delay im very happy
