Care.com Reviews (%countItem)

I have worked on care.com for 13 years and have many great clients that will say im a good worker who does her job well. I got hire to one family for 8 days and stopped working there. Care.com closed my account and refused to tell me why. I did nothing wrong and feel how they do business is very unprofessional. I have a clean background check and I know how to take care of my clients. I am disgusted with how care.com handles things and they are very rude people. Please get to the bottom of this they cant keep treating people this way and ruining there way to make money and pay there bills. I see many other complaints on here that should be a red flag

Just like *** they steal from you, but actually they are worse because it goes through *** music which can get lost in all the downloads and phone costs. It took going through multiple sites, then calling my *** account to find how to see subscriptions. 500$ and I want it back. They have an obligation to alert of billing and exactly what it is, or downgrade after inactivity. SCAM!!!

Care.com Response • Mar 05, 2020

The billing was not done by Care.com. They need to reach out to customer care for the company that is billing them.

My husband and I have been using Care.com to find our nanny's ever since our son was born. Recently we had to look for a new nanny to replace our current nanny and fast. I went onto the site and started to post a new job listing and then realized, she might see it! So I decided to change some of our information and take down the pictures to try and keep her from finding out that we were replacing her. Well, I got flagged and my account was terminated. When I could not log back on I started an account using my husbands information. Within a few days, that account got terminated. I called to see if we could be reactivated and was told I can never start a Care.com account with my email EVER again. What!!!????
Maybe if you allowed people to BLOCK those that they didn't want to see the listing this would not have happened. Now I am without a nanny and will have to look elsewhere and I have ZERO time to find another site to use. Thanks a lot CARE.COM. You have just made a bad situation worse.

Our terms of use are clearly defined when it comes to the situations this member has mentioned. The Terms of Use are agreed to by all members when enrolling on the site.

They took my account down and when I called to inquire why they said due to their “privacy policy” they couldn’t tell me. I had an interview set up with an potential nanny job but because we were being safe and had all communication thro the app I’m not sure if the interview is still on or not. I feel this practice is unfair

I signed up for service just to look around the site. Somehow it signed me up for background check subscription as well. I called to inform them to cancel and refund the first call they said my bank would not accept it. I stated I used my husband card and we called the bank and they said no refund tried to come through. I called back and was told it would take a couple days. After couple days I called back because they cancelled my whole subscription and was told they would refund my money and sign me back up for free. Here we are fourth call and they saying it’s going to take days again. This is just a run around and I want all my money back and to close my account completely.

Care.com Response • Feb 26, 2020

We want to acknowledge Ms.’s frustration that her requested refund for the UnlimitedBackground Check add on feature was not processed in a timely manner.

We want to apologize for the inconvenience and for any miscommunication regarding thestatus of Ms.’s refund. We want to reassure Ms. a check for the refund has been processedand will be mailed to her address on file.Ms. has also requested a refund for the cost of her Premium membership and unfortunately, thischarge is not eligible for a refund.

We would be happy to closeMs.’s account at the end of her current billing cycle and we can assure her she will not incur anyfurther charges.We hope this clarifies the situation and encourage Ms. to reach out if she has any furtherconcerns.

I was a member for the company. I have excellent references and background check. I have over 30 years of experience in childcare and housekeeping. I was hired as a housekeeper/personal assistant for a great family and had no issues. However before that I worked for a short time with a family and I was not comfortable with the surroundings and the issues that were going on in the household. That’s when I transferred to the family I have been recently caring for until one of them became terminally ill and they are staying in their primary home in another state. We parted on good terms and when I decided to look for another job I found out my account was terminated. I contacted care.com several times to try to resolve this issue and they give me any reason or explanation as to why. I have excellent background check and have never been in any kind of trouble or have any complaints against me. The only thing I can think of is that the family I was first working for may have falsely said things about me because they are still looking for help and go through employee after employee. I’m recently widowed and relocated from *** hoping to get a fresh start on life. This company is keeping me from finding a great new family to work for and I have signed with other companies but I have had several indecent proposals for things. I’m pleading to see what miscommunication is going on and feel I have the right to know what I supposedly have done so I can correct this problem.

Looks like another 0 rating for Care.com.
I signed up for just 3 days and cancelled membership because of the quality of responders for my request.
I kept the confirmation email showing cancelled but deleted after 3 weeks assuming I was done with them.
Oh no!!! I saw a charge for $39 on my credit cardZ not only did the not cancel membership, they upgraded my membership.
What a SCAM!!!
I tried to cancel again and there was no way. No button to cancel only a downgrade. These people are criminals hoping to steal from unknowing elderly.
Stay away!!!!
I called *** bank and disputed charges and stopped them from taking anymore of my money!!
Revdex.com, shut them down!!!

Care.com Response • Feb 28, 2020

When the member initially paid for a membership, that was an upgrade to the premium membership. The 'downgrade' button is the transaction for stopping the billing and returning the account to the basic free membership. A confirmation email and account alert is generated to confirm the process was successful and neither of there were on eth account. Once the downgrade is completed an email confirmation and account alert confirmation is sent. Member also started the dispute process before reaching out to us, so we were not able to process a refund.

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES DO BUSINESS WITH THESE SCAMMERS!
Have to give one star, but it should be zero. This company is ripping off people left and right, whether job-seekers or employee searchers. Their policies and practices are both ineffective and fraudulent. When my job search was unsuccessful, I signed up for one month of Premium membership. I didn't notice that my upgraded membership made any real difference, but I kept it for a couple more months and forgot to cancel it right away. So I agree to 3 months of charges. After that, I definitely went on-line to downgrade my account because the service provided was completely ineffective at helping me find a position. it was like throwing money away. I WENT ON-LINE TO DOWNGRADE TO A FREE ACCOUNT! I thought my premium membership was canceled, but unbeknownst to me they were continuing to charge $20 per month. This was over a year ago. I didn't notice because it was on a credit card that has a lot of small charges that are paid off every couple of months. Then I had to cancel my credit card and get a new one so I reviewed all my subscriptions and made this unpleasant discovery. Customer service was beyond unhelpful. They kept ranting about auto billing which wasn't even the issue. I knew I had to cancel or downgrade. I went on-line and thought that I had down-graded the account. It didn't happen. It really shouldn't be that difficult for me to make changed in the account, but somehow this didn't process. The customer service agent kept saying that it must somehow be my fault, or my computer's fault, and they have no record of this, blah blah blah. You can clearly see how I never really used my account after I thought I had cancelled Premium.
A customer service supervisor is supposed to call me back tomorrow, but I am sure that it will be all the same rhetoric as today. I wonder how many complaints they need to be fully investigated. The lady today even told me I was welcome to write a letter, but that I would receive the same response as what she said today. Basically that I have no chance. If you scroll down a bit through these reviews, you will see that I am not the only one this has happened to. They have many fraudulent practices. They are THIEVES and LIARS.

Care.com Response • Feb 25, 2020

When an account is downgraded successfully, the member receives an email confirmation and an alert confirmation in their account inbox. There wasn't any indication that an account transaction was completed to stop the billing on the account. There is only the recent call center contact that the member mentions concerning the billing. A refund was processed according to our refund policy.

Unable to remove credit card information from account. Instructions to access customer care not clearly noted anywhere on the website. The customer service number doesn't handle refunds. I was charged time and time again without being able to completely remove my card, contact customer service or cancel the account (it only allows you to downgrade)
This is extremely confusing and frustrating getting charged for something you can't cancel.

Care.com Response • Feb 21, 2020

We want to acknowledge that the member Ms. claims to have not understood the Care.comsubscription when she enrolled and feels deceived by her experience with Care.com.As was previously explained, it is the responsibility of the member to cancel their subscription wheneverthey see fit. I apologize to Ms. if she was not aware of this, but as was shown in the previousresponse this information was readily available during enrollment.Ms. purchased a Premium Membership subscription on December 18, 2019. When Ms. purchased this subscription, it is clearly communicated on the site and the email confirmationthat all subscriptions automatically renew unless otherwise canceled. This feature is also clearlyexplained along with our refund policy in Section 8 of Care.com’s Terms of Use, which Ms.agreed to at the time of enrollment.We understand that Ms. attempted to locate instructions for how to cancel her subscriptionon our site and was unsuccessful. We understand that Ms. claims that the Customer Servicenumber does not handle refunds. Please note that our Call Center Customer Service representatives areavailable Monday – Friday to assist with subscription cancelations and refund requests.In response to Ms.’s claim, we have reviewed her request to determine if the most recentsubscription charge met the eligibility requirements in accordance with the Refund Policy. Ms.’s most recent subscription charge dated 2/18/2020 was eligible for a refund. As such, arefund in the amount of $39.00 was processed on 2/21/2020. Ms. should please allow 3-5business days for this refund to appear on her bank statement.Ms.’s account has been successfully downgraded to a free basic membership. Her credit cardwill no longer be charged. If Ms. still wishes to remove her credit card informationcompletely, she should follow these steps:• Log into her account• Go to her Account & Settings screen• Go to the Credit Card Information section• Click into "Edit" link• Click "Delete"Care.com offers a very thorough Help section designed to offer immediate assistance for accountmanagement, as well as 24-hour email support and call center support M-F.

I appreciate Ms.’s feedback regarding oursubscriptions and billing practices. As such, I have personally submitted her feedback to the appropriatedepartment on her behalf.

I am writing this complaint as I had canceled by auto-renew monthly subscription to Care.com within 1 month of the original subscription however I noticed my credit card was charged twice since then. The cancelation was done online when I downgraded my account from the Premium membership.

Care.com Response • Feb 22, 2020

We want to acknowledge that Ms. is frustrated because she cancelled her subscriptionand was billed two times since that cancellation took place. We want to acknowledge that shehas requested a refund of the two charges she believes were incurred after she cancelled hersubscription.Ms. joined Care.com in 2018 and upgraded her account to a monthly renewingsubscription on 12.17.2019. As stated at the time of upgrade, all subscriptions automaticallyrenew until cancelled. This information was also outlined in the billing confirmation email thatwas sent to her on 12.17.2019.On 2.19.2020 Ms. contacted our Member Care team via phone stating that she haddowngraded her account and had been billed twice since then. A representative explained thatwhen an account is downgraded or cancelled a confirmation of this action is sent to the memberCare.com inbox as well as the members personal email address offsite. It was explained to herthat this confirmation never took place which means her account never downgraded as she hadstated. A representative explained our refund policy and escalated her request to be reviewed bya supervisor. Later that same day, a supervisor contacted Ms. via email letting her knowthat as an exception to our policy a refund for two months of service totaling $84.92 was issuedto her.On 2.19.2020 this refund was issued to Ms.. It may take up to seven days for this refundto be reflected on her bank account. Additionally, the account was correctly downgraded back toa free basic membership and no further charges will be incurred. We ask that if Ms. hasany additional questions or prefers that her account be closed altogether that she reaches out toour Member Care team at ***We hope this outcome is the resolution Ms. had been looking for and appreciate herworking with us to resolve her concerns.

I signed up for 3 months before I searched the reviews and when I tried to use there services and messaged the list of caregivers I got no response. I called them several times and was left on hold for 30 mins before hanging up. I decided to cancel online but it is impossible because they don’t have the option they claim to have on their website to go to account settings and cancel.
It was easy to sign up but when I tried to cancel that day and till this day 4 days later it is impossible. Ive need trying everyday and no response. Someone Please Help me

Care.com Response • Feb 21, 2020

This member called into our call center and was assisted on the same day this review was posted. The call center can get very busy and there may be times when there is a wait time for getting a rep. We do also offer assistance via email, social media and chat. There also seems to have been some confusion about how the premium membership works and how it is downgraded as opposed to closing the account completely.

Signed up for 1 month in September 2017. It is now February 2020 and they are still charging my bank account $27.06 per month. We have tried to cancel and care.com has taken a running total of $730.62 so far.
There is no contact information listed on their web-site. You have to google search to find a phone number. However, no one will answer or call you back.
We have no idea how to officially cancel our account, get a refund or simply talk to someone.
User beware of care.com

This member has a new account and has not reached out to us for any assistance. We are available by phone at (877) 227-3115, email at [email protected] and on social media to assist our members with navigating their accounts.

Care.com engages in shady business practices by charging "members" a recurring monthly fee without making it apparent to customers. I believed I was paying a one-time fee for a month of service, which was all I wanted. I understood it was for one month, but I did not understand they would be keeping and charging my card every month. The same day they charged a second fee on my charge card, I immediately went to their website to contact their customer service. Nowhere on their site is customer service contact posted--no phone, no email, no address--just a FAQ section. I tried to delete my credit card info and could not. I finally found the hard-to-find section for "downgrading" my account in order to eliminate the monthly charge. I feel they purposely made their monthly-charge practices hidden in fine print and a follow-up email in order to scam their customers.

I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does satisfy my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint #***. I understand that by choosing to accept the business response that my complaint will be closed as resolved. However, I stated in my dispute letter, I have updated and asked that my account information be removed for months - and Care.Come system does not indicate such. Again, I would like to be assured that my my banking information is DELETED. I have logged in & used your directions - explicitly and it still does not update my choices. So either, you system's program are not working properly or once your information is given it is IMPOSSIBLE to delete it. So I ask that you have one of your computer technicians REMOVE my banking information from your site with my permission because I cannot. I have tried since July of 219 & It hasn't worked. Thank you for agreeing to refund my funds, I don't trust that it will not happen again since you still have my banking information. To date, the funds have not shown up in my account.

How is this an A rated company? Like almost all of the other reviewers, I wish I would have looked here first before signing up for this. I signed up for a one month membership and somehow was put on auto renewals for my payments. I don't look at my cc statements all the time, like many others. I used the site for the one month I signed up for and then didn't use it again. I recently did a scan of my credit card statement and to my shock, I was charge for the next 3 months. I called for a refund and was told my money would be refunded, but I only received a refund for one month. I was then given a phone number to call, spoke to someone who said he would send my request for the other two months to the "Refund Department". Just having a "Refund Department" is pretty telling that this is set up to be a scam and I'm sure like all the others who have called, I will be told "Sorry you didn't know about our auto renewal". If they go into my account they would see that I never used it after the one month I thought I was signed up. A company with good business practices would run their business this way. So sad they have to continue to be set up this way and scam money from hard-working people.

Care.com Response • Feb 20, 2020

The upgrade/billing page of this type of account clearly states our renewal policy as shown below.
*By clicking Upgrade Now, you agree that your credit card will be charged $(amount) per month, plus any applicable sales tax, for the duration of the plan you selected.You also agree that your subscription will automatically renew for additional 1-month terms unless you cancel your subscription before it renews by contacting us at (877) 227-3115 or [email protected], and you authorize us to charge your credit card $150 each month, plus any applicable sales tax, for the duration of each renewal term.

I signed up for 1 month at care.com. I was not notified I was going to be billed every month after signing up for one month only. I noticed I was being billed for subsequent months after I thought my 1 month had expired. I contacted care com and they said they could only refund me 1 month out of the additionally 3 I was billed. They noted that I never used the website or acct in the 3 months (Dec, Jan and Feb). I am fine paying for Nov as that month I did use the site and that was what I had signed up for. There wording on their website is misleading and there is no notifiable message that your 1 month subscription will continue on until you cancel.

I was a member for many years. I answered an ad to take a man Monday through Friday to visit his wife in a nursing home. I spoke with his daughter and she said she wasn’t taking taxes out of my checks each week. I had a time a few days later to meet them for an interview, and I decided before I met them, I didn’t want the job because no taxes were being taken out.
She got mad that I cancelled, that she called care. Com and told them some lie, and they terminated my membership without hearing my side.
There were no rules about canceling a meet and greet and I used care for side jobs to make extra money.
I don’t think it’s fair what they did, and want to get back on there.

I was charged for something I did not approve. the website glitched and charged my card. I do not use this service. I was just looking. They charged my card multiple times and refunded me all but the last charge.
