No Auto-renewal Notice
Don't both with a subscription to this site. The classes are just okay (Skillshare is much better) and they don't give you notice that your subscription is about to auto-renew. Definitely a subscription trap and scam.
While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

Horrible customer service. No responses to my 4 emails regarding cancellation. I finally figured out how to cancel on the website. Stay away from this company. Scams
Still trying to charge card despite cancelling the subscription.they are still trying to charge my account even I have cancelled the subscription. no response from customer service. Pathetic service avoid at all cost.
I joined Creativbug but decided it wasn't for me. I tried to delete my account but the instructions just did not work. So I emailed for help a week ago, still no reply. At some point, I got to one of their own pages headed 'Delete this account'. Underneath was 'Now there is no way to delete an account ????' Their contact page says they 'really' want to help customers. It would 'really' help customers to be able to delete an account.
This site is an absolute scam, do not use. The artists' material they're using should be removed.
I signed up a year ago at a reduced price and stopped using the site pretty much straight away as the quality of the videos was quite meh, just nothing you can't find for free on YouTube.
Then the site automatically took a payment for a further year. They did not send an email to say this was about to happen, which I understand to be best practice. I noticed the payment had been taken straight away and emailed asking to be refunded and have the subscription cancelled, explaining that I cannot afford it and had not been notified that the payment was about to be taken.
The response was that they do not offer refunds under any circumstances and are under no obligation to alert customers before taking a payment. Apparently this was made clear in the terms and conditions, but I must say, it can't have been that clear because I definitely missed it!
This feels very much to me like a subscription trap. It is upsetting that the customer service people I emailed with were unrelenting and would not make an exception even when I explained that losing this money for a service I don't want and will not use, will severely impact me. Very much a case of prioritising profits over people.
