It is advertised on the google seach as free and it is not free, but I have already spent so much time making the resume I decided to pay. This is morally incorrect and a discrace to human kind. If were tricking each other and we're dishonest it creates a virus in the world. You're company is like a bad virus. I hate that I am even going through with paying for this. It would be fine if it weren't advertised as free. Dumbass

Hello,

We sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration you experienced while using our website. We understand how disappointing it can feel when expectations aren't met, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us.

To clarify, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid). The Basic Access option allows users to explore our resume builder and create documents at no cost. However, downloads through this option are limited to plain text files and do not include the use of our professionally designed templates or additional features.

The Full Access account, which comes with a small fee, unlocks enhanced options such as printing, emailing, and downloading resumes using our copyrighted designs, as well as access to extra tools like cover letters and job search resources. This plan includes a 14-day trial period, and unless cancelled within that timeframe, it transitions into a monthly subscription.

We understand that discovering these terms at the end of your process may feel unexpected. Our goal is to be as transparent as possible, and we are always looking for ways to improve clarity across our platform and advertising.

Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and we are committed to improving the user experience for everyone. If you’d like to share more about your experience or if we can assist you further, please contact our support team.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

Says free in description, but after completing a massive overhaul of resume you are greeted with pay $2.95 for 14 days or $7.95 for year, leaving you feeling obligated or wasting your time.

Hello,

We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you may have experienced with our website. We understand your concerns and would like to provide some clarification. First, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid).

The basic access account is designed to allow users to explore our builder and try out its features before committing to a purchase. With this account, you can freely use the builder and create your documents. However, it's important to note that the basic access account only allows you to download a plain text version of your document, and it does not include our premium features.

On the other hand, we offer a full-access account for a small fee, which includes additional features such as printing, emailing, and downloading documents with our copyrighted templates, as well as other services to facilitate your job search (cover letters, interview tips, etc.). With the full-access account, you'll have 14 days to use these advanced features and optimize your document creation process. In the event you don't cancel your account within the first 14 days, your subscription will renew to our monthly access.

We continuously strive to improve our website and provide a seamless user experience. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Not happy
October 12, 2025
Updated review

The site was pretty easy to navigate, it was a breeze. After I paid I was not view my resume. I had to contact the customer department for them to send it to me. They responded to my request in a timely manner, but when I downloaded my resume errors were popping up that I could not correct. Every correction I attempted to make caused another error. The color was missing, then the format was off and then the font changed. It was very frustrating. They did refund my fee, but what I needed was a resume that day.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out. We apologize for any inconvenience that you may have encountered. It sounds like you may have experienced a temporary technical issue while using our platform. We’ve checked on our end and did not detect any ongoing problems at the moment, so this may have been an isolated occurrence.

To address the issue, please create a duplicate document within your account. This document is where all the necessary modifications should be applied. Once adjustments are saved within the platform, the updated version will retain its intended format, colors, and fonts, and will then be ready for download without errors.

If the issue persists or if you need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly at communications@resumebuilder.com.

Our team will be happy to investigate further and help resolve the matter. We value your patience and understanding as we strive to provide a more seamless and reliable experience.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

Hello,

We sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration you may have experienced with our website. While we understand your concerns, we want to clarify that our service offers features beyond what is typically available through general AI tools, including professionally designed templates and tailored document optimization.

While we understand that free tools exist, our platform is designed to provide much more than basic assistance. We offer professionally designed resume and cover letter templates, AI-powered content suggestions tailored to specific roles and industries, formatting tools that ensure ATS compliance, and a user-friendly interface to help streamline and enhance the job application process.

We regret any confusion surrounding billing and would appreciate the opportunity to review this further. To provide you with the support you need, please look for a message from Trustpilot asking for your account information. We want to ensure you receive exceptional customer service, as we are committed to turning your opinion around.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

So far it has been frustrating

So far it has been frustrating. I can't choose a skills based format and it doesn't have the option to customize the resume. Its really too early for me to be leaving a review but since you insisted so far it sucks.

Hello,

Thank you so much for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience has been frustrating so far. We completely understand the importance of being able to fully customize your resume to reflect your unique background and strengths.

We want to clarify a few things about how editing works on ResumeBuilder:

- Within the platform, you can edit text, rearrange sections, update personal information, and customize the content of your resume directly in the builder.

- Once your resume is complete, you also have the option to download it as a Word document (. Docx). This gives you even more control to manually adjust the layout, modify the formatting, and create a more skills-based (functional) resume if needed.

- Some formatting elements (such as font sizes, spacing, and certain layout features) may be restricted in the builder to maintain a clean, professional look and ensure your resume remains ATS-friendly, which helps it pass through applicant tracking systems used by many employers today.

We continuously strive to improve our website and provide a seamless user experience. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

Hello,

We appreciate you sharing your experience. We apologize for any confusion or frustration you may have experienced with our website. We understand your concerns and want to ensure the transparency of our service. Please allow us to provide further clarification.

First, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid). Our free plan allows you to build your resume and download it as a simple text (TXT) file, while paid plans, such as our 14-day trial, offer full access to live previews, downloadable PDFs, stylish templates, and career tools like expert guidance and AI suggestions.

Next, our service works like a subscription. After the initial fee, if the subscription is not canceled within 14 days, it automatically renews into a paid monthly plan in order to maintain uninterrupted access. These conditions are presented clearly during the registration process, including at the point of purchase, within the terms and conditions, and again in the confirmation email sent immediately after the initial payment. This message outlines the subscription terms, billing frequency, and cancellation information to ensure full transparency. We understand this information may be overlooked and recognize the importance of clarity at all stages of the customer experience.

Finally, regarding your resume, once you’ve completed and saved your document, you can download it directly from your Dashboard. Simply log in to your account, go to the "My Documents" section, and you’ll find your saved resume(s) listed there. From that page, you can choose to download, print, or email your resume. However, if you’re unable to find your document or access your account, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team at communications@resumebuilder.com. We will be happy to investigate further and make sure you have the correct version of your resume.

Best regards.

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologize for any confusion or frustration you may have experienced regarding our pricing. We understand how important it is for pricing and billing terms to be completely clear from the beginning, and we take this responsibility seriously.

We want to assure you that our service follows a subscription-based model. After the initial trial or access fee, the subscription automatically renews into a monthly plan unless canceled within 14 days. These details are presented transparently at several points: during the sign-up process, at the time of purchase, in our Terms and Conditions, and again in the confirmation email sent immediately after payment. This email includes all relevant information about the billing cycle, pricing, and how to cancel the subscription.

That said, we understand that this information can sometimes be overlooked, and we’re currently reviewing how we present this content to ensure an even clearer user experience moving forward. Your feedback is extremely valuable in helping us identify areas for improvement. If you have any additional questions or need further clarification, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team. We’re here to help.

Thank you again for helping us improve.

Best regards,
Customer Service Team.
