IQ Academy Reviews 414

Scam after you pay couple pennys for the IQ test they charge you £40 pounds after. My bank declined the payment and now I’m having to sort a lot of shit out with my bank to sort out the risks of fraud and all. 0 star experience and they should be charged with fraud because the £40 subscription is not visible enough while you pay for the iq test.

Total con, says 49p to see results, then 2 days later take 39.99 off you! Completely not transparent and if that was a clause, it's completely small print knowing they can scam you! This should be illegal and I will be getting a refund by law and the cooling off clause! If I don't, I will be back on to share! Do not bother with this website, it's a scam in disguise and they make it really hard to cancel the subscription, or get a refund for things you didn't even know you had signed up for with their clever marketing! Absolutely not! Scammers!!!!

It did the same to me and three days after taking the agreed £0.49 took another £39.99 from my credit card without authorisation - raising a dispute with the bank

Think IQ Academy Is a scammer, don’t give away your account information, don’t pay anything.

I paid a small fee of around £1 to use their service and canceled it immediately afterward. However, I recently noticed two transactions of £39.99 taken from my account—one last month and another just a few days ago. After reading other negative reviews, I suspect they may be scammers, as I am confident that I canceled my subscription in time to prevent further charges.

They refused to provide me with a full refund of £79.98 and only offered to reimburse me £22.05, which I find very frustrating and unfair. I believe I am entitled to the entire refund since I did not use their service after the trial period. It seems there may be an issue with their website that caused the automatic charges. I am very unhappy with this situation, and I would like my full refund.

I would not recommend their service to anyone!

If you pay for an iq test they will continue to charge your account by 50£ a month I paid 1£ for an iq test an a month later it took 50£ from my account it never said anything about subscriptions they hide the subscription in terms and condition to trick you and steal your money

Please avoid this company. I completed an online quiz and paid 0.99£ for result. I cancelled the subscription immediately after. Only today I realised they took 2 x £39.99 out of my account without me realising. I logged to my account and initiated canclation again as the subscription shows as active but it doesn't even give you confirmation you have unsubscribed. No customer service available to talk to someone. Debuted the transaction with my bank. Awaiting outcome.

Prick scammers

Says the results cost 50p then charge u £39.99

Stay away

Scam!
Asks you for a small fee for a test and secretly charges £49.99 each month!
Now i have had to freeze my card as i need them stopped by fraud team

Concentration. Made me work hard

It's a money grab, they offer you to see the results for $1usd but will charge you for the membership ($29.99usd) regardless and make the refund process a hassle.

Quick and easy

Misleading. Charges 40 pounds and tells you this in small sub text. Of course I didnt notice this and then was charged.

To many questions .
And review requests prior to product delivery

Beware! Definitely a scam.
My daughter did the test and paid 49p but realised it signed her up for a subscription of £34 a month. There appears to be no way to cancel the subscription. It says to log into your account and cancel but she hasn't got an account. It says to email to cancel which she did immediately and more than once. The money has still been taken out of her account.
Obviously she never thought it was a real iq test and just thought it was fun, but if it says it's a free trial and you can cancel it any time then that should be the case and it clearly isn't.

Misleading, Pretentious to be free by having a org domain. ORG domain are basically trusted to be govt owned or non-profit organizations so when people think the IQ test written is free. they expect a free test and results as well. NO person has the time to answer questions and not get the results, that's the entire point of why it's called a "TEST". Knowingly, the company continues to do so. It's not that people are cheap or some even have a tight pocket, but people don't like being tricked even if it's as small as 50p. You'd make further more in business with honesty and integrity rather than masking to get 50p out of 500 people. THINK & ACT.

Test was advertised as free.

After spending 15 minutes filling it out, they reveal the rest is £0.49

Annoying, but I paid because I didn't want to redo another test.

A few days later I was billed for £39. Thankfully my card automatically blocked it.

Scam as posted by many others. Avoid you will pay for it!
