I don’t love the decision to separate the documents from official books, but I’m sure there’s a reason. However, with the stuff that now makes up all of the Scribd app, there are two problems that make it way more difficult to use than it should be. First, you still see the things you’ve saved in Everand. There’s no reason for this. If I want to see those, I will open Everand. Second, Scribd has always been bad about saving your place in documents. When you close a doc, you absolutely must make a bookmark. This seems like something they should have figured out by now. Otherwise, quite good.

I’m trying to keep an open mind with this Everand x Scribd merger. Frankly, as a user, it is extremely inconvenient to browse content on two different apps, when it used to be on one app. Navigating my “saved” items has been a nightmare. Here are some examples:I look for a “document” on scribd, but can’t find it. Hop over to Everand, and find it there (turns out it was an “E-Book). Then I look for “sheet music’ on Everand, and again, can’t find it until I switch over to Scribd, and see that the “sheet music” was actually technically a “document”. Are you following my logic? Fellow users, can we relate?Also underscored is the inevitable feeling that these two services, currently covered under one subscription to Scribd, will eventually be two separate subscriptions (hopefully us founding users will be grandfathered into 1 sub). I would love to know the real reason for this change. My guess is either copyright issues (e-books being pirated as “documents” on scribd), or financial issues (joining forces with other companies to compete with Audible / Kindle). Because let’s be clear, the fact that the segregation of content actually makes it EASIER for users (as they claimed), is fundamentally untrue.I actually have empathy for whatever reason forced Scribd’s hand on this new direction. I proudly endorse this product as a superior alternative to Kindle and Audible. That being said, the execution and lack of transparency is disappointing.

This is not the first time I’ve experienced an issue with unauthorized charges on my account. Previously, I had to dispute a charge with my bank, which led to my card being re-issued.I’m finding it difficult to understand why I’m still being charged for a subscription I canceled months ago. This cancellation was confirmed by one of your customer service representatives. If needed, I can provide email correspondence to verify this.At this point, I’m concerned that my account will be charged again at the end of the month for a subscription I have not used. While I understand that investigations may be necessary, the inconvenience this has caused me over a $24 charge is frustrating, especially considering this is not the first time I’ve raised this issue with your company.I’ve already responded to your customer service team, who requested additional information such as screenshots of the charge and partial card details. However, I’d like to stress the urgency of resolving this issue promptly to avoid having to file another dispute with my bank.I do not wish to leave a negative review, but I will be forced to do so if the issue remains unresolved. I am willing to update my feedback once I see that the matter is properly handled and my account is fully refunded, with assurance that I won’t be charged again.I trust you will address this as soon as possible and provide a timely resolution.Sincerely,

I have never written a review for an app before but felt the need to share my experience with this app. I only downloaded the app and really never got a chance to use it so I deleted it off of my phone. But for weeks now it attempts to charge my account. Luckily I gave it an account that I use only to pay bills when I transfer money on to the account so it hasn’t been successful in withdrawing the money. But every few days I get the notification of it attempting to charge my account. I can only imagine on of these days if I have only exact money for rent or my car payment and the charge for this app goes through then it will cause my account to overdraft and I will get charged extra fees from the bank. It’s only a matterOf time till that happens. I have tried to redownload the app and delete it again but to avail. Honestly don’t know what to do at this point. I don’t make much money so I don’t have the luxury of going through that scenario which I feel at this point is inevitable.
