I was signed up at a school bookstore not knowing they would charge me every month. I hadnt even registered or used the program at all. I cant recommend it less.

Back in September of 2020, my son purchased an online book and Bartleby attached their subscription to it. This was not something that my son wanted or needed; they attached it taking advantage of an unwitting teenager, who didn't notice. He used my credit card for the purchase of the book and therefore my credit card has been charged. So, on top of it all Bartleby is charging me for a subscription that I never authorized the purchase for. They have been charging us $9.99 a month for this subscription, though we have never once availed ourselves of their service. Additionally, they have never contacted my son via email or letter to discuss this subscription. I wrote to Bartleby's customer support on 3/16/22, mentioning to them that we didn't understand the charge and that no one in my household has ever requested this subscription. That's when they tied the account to my son and that he put the subscription in the cart, along with a book he'd purchased. They then said the following: "We understand your concern at the charges. We found an account linked to the email 'son's email inserted'. The subscription was purchased online on 'www.mbsbooks.com' by adding Bartleby Write to the cart. The first month was offered for free and thereafter billed $9.99 monthly until cancelled. Please note, the terms of the subscription were stated upfront at the time of purchase and we are therefore, unable to issue a refund but have closed the account to avoid future billing.Bartleby Support We feel robbed. There is no other way to explain it. This company makes its money by singling out kids going off to college. They add a "free subscription" to a cart and then pretend that what they're doing is somehow legal; it's morally corrupt, and they know exactly what they're doing. In the interest of the law, someone needs to do something about this. I've read numerous stories about this company. It appears that they use this tactic often.***************************
