      It's been going on for over a year. I signed up for a subscription, but I cancelled it two months later. Or I tried to. They kept charging my account. I eventually got a new card, which they somehow obtained. They kept charging my account. Since then, I've gotten two new cards, I rarely log in, and I DO NOT enter my new card numbers. They are still somehow getting every single one of my new cards and continuing to charge my cards. I'm concerned that they are somehow violating my confidentiality. I have tried contacting my banks, but they say I have to take it up with audible. I've tried calling audible, and they have been little to no help. The last charge came on my card just today, March 28th, 2025. I just switched cards a few weeks ago, and I haven't even logged into audible since then.

      I sent an email to the customer confirming their membership has already been cancelled as of 3/28/25. A refund was processed totaling $47.55 back to the payment method which originated the charges. The refund goes back to the last usage on the account on 11/10/24 when 2 credits were redeemed for the audiobooks "The Tailor of Gloucester" and "The Bazaar of Bad Dreams" respectively.

      Better Business Bureau:

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. However, they did not refund the full amount. I tried canceling the membership a month after I bought it in 2024. But I will accept this money, and am I satisfied with the outcome.

      I had a subscription to Audible a audio book company that works with ******. I have paid for 10 credits over the past 10 months at $14.95 per month. I want to cancel my membership and they say that they will take back all 10 credits that I have already paid for, if I don't use them immediately. Those credits are mine that I have paid for and they are crookedly trying to claw it all back if I cancel my membership. This is extortion and corrupt and taking advantage of the consumer.

      Informed customer that membership credits are a part of their membership benefit package. Credits themselves do not have a determined value and can be redeemed for any audiobook title from our Premium catalog regardless of price. Once the credits are redeemed for an audiobook, the content is part of your library for the life of the account regardless of your membership status with Audible. The customer's membership was also placed on hiatus status until June so they can redeem their credits without incurring additional membership charges.

      I purchased a three credit bundle from ***** through the Audible app. I did NOT get the credits. I requested a refund from ***** and they denied refund and said I have to deal with Audible. Audible says I have to deal with *****. I am getting nowhere with either company.

      Advised customer the transaction processed by ***** on 2/14/2025 for $53.95 is not refundable by Audible since we did not process the payment. The customer received 3 complimentary credits from an Audible CSA on 2/16/25. Requested customer provide the transaction ID number for the related completed charge or line item from ***** purchase history page for the Audible 3 credit bundle so I can have our Development Team review any potential issue with the purchase flow as a third party. Awaiting reply.

      I cancelled my Audible account in September of 2024. Received confirmation of cancelation . In January of 2025 I had 2 separate $14.95 charges to my bank from Audible. When I reached out to Audible (through chat on their site since there is no number listed to call), they said I had to send them an email and that the person in the chat would receive it right away. I did and they just kept telling me the account was under a different email address and there was nothing else they can do. I'm going to report these as false charges to my bank since I never authorized these charges and they don't even make sense (2 charges in 1 day).

      Hi ******,

      I did not see a paid membership under the ***************************** I did notice for the months of June, July and August 2024, the membership fees were waived do to a discount. I do understand your frustration. I have received and I am investigating this matter on my end. Audible takes great steps to preventing your experience from happening again, this is why we request your assistance with the prevention. Have you ever used a different email when using ******, does anyone have access to your Amazon account such as a child or spouse, have you ever used your credit card on someones ****** account? They may have forgotten to delete your credit card off of their account. Along with my review, I am asking you to please contact your financial organization as a better way to prevent unknown and unwelcome ********** stated before, I understand your frustration.

      I feel together we can work towards a favorable solution to this issue.

       

      Awaiting your response.

      I am rejecting this response because:
      This is the same email I received from Audible. I spoke to 2 different people from Audible on 2 different occasions since I filed the complaint. Both of them were saying to name my family members. I made it clear that I have zero family members that would have access to any of my accounts. The last ********************** employee I spoke to wouldn't accept my answer and kept repeating "name your family members ( at least a dozen times until I finally just hung up). She then called me back and said "please name your family members!". Absolutely insane. I filed a fraud claim through my bank and have blocked Audible from accessing my account. I truly hope this is over and to not ever have to deal with this company (Audible) and their atrocious customer service again.

      Hi ******, 

      Due to the uniqueness of your issue, and your credit card being possible connected to another persons active account, there are limits on the action I can take. The steps that will prevent the charges from continuing will be to contact your financial institution and asking for a fraud claim on these charges. This will stop the charges on your credit card. 

      Note: Legal and privacy concerns limit the information we can release and to whom it can be released. 

       

      Regards.

      I realized today that I had been paying for 2 accounts. I only signed up for one. in the 4+ years of the other account my child who is under ********************** with my ********************* email thinking it was the ****************** account and over the 4 years had downloaded and likely never read the books, regardless. I paid approximately $837 over these years without any benefits. I have been an active member on the other account since 2019. I was give 9 payments back out of the 56 payments because a book that I didn't order was ordered on the account. the next one before that was long before! They allowed me to move 3 credits over to my active account. My request is that I am refunded what I didn't use. I am a disabled Army Vet on a fixed income. I spend so much my income at ****** and for me this amount of money makes a difference and for Audible/****** it would NOT even register as a rounding error. The cost to refund more money will be a benefit to Audible and ****** as I will remain a customer.

      Audible continuously allows me to purchase books I have already purchased. And theres no way to track previous purchases unless you spend hours scrolling through their app I believe this is highly unfair and they should change their app to allow searches within for titles that were previously purchased I have bought doubles of books many many times and they allow it.

      I emailed the customer educating her that our system does not allow audiobooks to be purchased twice. I informed her each audiobook has a different product ID that is registered once they make a purchase. Our system recognizes the product ID when trying to make a purchase and will inform you that you already own the title. I also informed the customer audiobooks have different version and each version has its own product ID. I offered to see if the customer has any titles they want me to check to see if they purchased multiple versions. Below is my email to the customer.

       

      "I received your message from the Better Business Bureau regarding our audiobook purchasing system. I wanted to reach out to you to clarify how our system works so that there isn't any confusion when you are purchasing your audiobooks. 

      Audible does not allow customers to purchase the same audiobook twice. Each audiobook on our website has a special product ID that is attached to it. When an audiobook is purchased and added to your account our system does not allow another purchase of that same product ID. You will get an error message when trying to add the book to your cart informing you that you already own the title. There are various titles on our website that have multiple versions. An example of this is when an audiobook comes in an abridged and unabridged versions. Another example is when an older title may get re-recorded with a new narrator. Each different version of a title will have its own product ID. If you were to buy the same book but in an abridged and unabridged version, that would not be considered the same title given they have different product ID's. 

      If there is any title you think you may have purchased twice I am happy to look up your account to see if there are multiple versions of the title in your library. 

      I hope this helps!"

      I tried filling a fraud claim with audible and ****** for an unauthorized charge on my ****** account. They refused to remove it from the thief's account. I've already contacted them, my bank, and ******. I feel this is setting up good customers without any privacy protection on there end.

      Business Response

      Date: 01/24/2025

      The customer contacted ********************** via a **************** call on January 22nd, 2025. The customer stated she had a charge she did not recognize from Audible. The **************** Agent educated the customer that the charge is not on her Amazon account but appears to be on another customer's account. The agent probed the customer to see if she has any family or friends that could have access to her card but the customer stated she does not have any family members and no one would have access to her credit card information. Due to security policies we cannot educate this customer on other customer's account information as it would leak sensitive information. The customer was advised to go to the bank to get this disputed as it appears to be a fraudulent charge.

      I emailed the customer and reiterated this information to her. I also offered to give her a call so I can help clarify that this is a fraudulent charge and in order to get this properly disputed she would need to contact her bank.

      I am rejecting this response because: I NEVER asked for the other customers information. That would be a privacy issue. Audible and ****** can reach out to the other customer who used MY card and Amazon Or ********************** can remove it from their account as it's FRAUD.  Maybe that customer shouldn't be doing business with Amazon or Audible. I have already spoken with my bank and ****** and took my necessary steps. I will also never do business with Audible or ****** again since they have no intentions of protecting my information but they surely had no problem protecting a thief.

      My name is ******* and I am a member of the ************** Team here at Audible. I received your complaint from the Better Business Bureau regarding your request for membership refunds and I am reaching out to assist with this matter.I reviewed your account and noticed that on May 16, 2023, a membership was started via a 30 day free trial using your login credentials via Amazon and the audiobook "The First Book," by Eloheem *** was purchased with the credit. Because the membership was not canceled within the 30 day time frame, the membership was renewed on June 16, 2023 and the credit card on file was charged $14.95. In order for a membership to begin, customers are take through a specific checkout flow. During the process, customers are informed that thee membership will renew on a specific date along with the cost of the service and must select a default payment method and agree to the Terms and Conditions of the membership. Emails regarding membership and r monthly credits were sent out each time the membership renewed.On June 28, 2024, you contacted Audible and requested to cancel the membership and receive a refund. The total amount of the refund was $179.40 and it went back to the MasterCard ending in **82. I did notice that the membership cancellation was not processed and your credit card was charged on July 15, 2024 for the membership fee.I noticed that you have been working with an Account Specialist to assist with your request for additional refunds that you were charged. On January 21. 2025, an email was sent to inform you that we would need to process your refund via Amazon Touchstone.

      Hello Nikea,Thank you for the screenshots you provided. I reviewed the first screenshot and noticed that it was a sample that was downloaded to your library on June 14, 2020. Although this title was added to your library on that date, I was not able to locate an active membership or charges prior to May 16, 2023. Per the second screenshot you provided, this was the date that the 30 day free trial was started on your account. Any of the charges I have been able to locate on your account have been refunded effective June 28, 2024 as per the last screenshot provided.On January 21, 2025, an email was sent to you from one of our Account Specialist informing you of your remaining refund as well as sent a link for Amazon Touchstone to provide an alternate refund since the card that was initially charged is no longer active. Please let me know if you received that email and completed the steps necessary to provide you with your refund.

      Hello again Nikea, I understand that you have previously submitted screenshots regarding this issue. I did review the screenshots that you sent over over, however they have confirmed all of the information that I gathered about the membership with us. The membership was started via a 30 day free trial on May 16, 2023 (Screenshot #3)and renewed effective June 16, 2023. You contacted on June 28, 2024  to request a refund and to cancel the membership. The refund was issued (screenshot 6) however the membership was canceled. While you state the membership started in 2020, outside of the audiobook that was added to your library in June 2020 (screenshot 2), I am unable to locate charges for that time. If you have further screenshots or other documents showing proof of membership and charges, I am unable to provide refunds prior to June 16, 2023. While I also understand that you would prefer that the refund be issued back to the card that was charged or receive a check however processing a wire transfer is the fastest and safest way of ensuring that you receive your refund. Your banking information will only be used to process the refund and this information is not visible to our agents and other staff. Without the requested information I am unable to assist further. If you would like a phone call to discuss this matter, I am available Tuesday- Friday between 9am to 6 pm EST and can give you a call between that time frame if you provide your number and the best day and time to reach you.

      I am rejecting this response because:It's not resolved I don't see my response back to Audible in our messages. I sent proof of the problems starting in 2020 they say it didn't that it started in 2023 because that's as far back as you can see now. So my proof of 2020 can't be explained. Now if we just do 2023 2024 that's a year that they stole money out of my account they only reimburse me 6 months in Jun of 2024 said they canceled my account and they started charges again the very next month.  I never started a Audible account. So nothing has been done AND I'M SCARED THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON THEY ARE UNKNOWINGLY STEALING FROM.

      Hello Nikea,

       

      This is ******* from the ************** Team here at Audible. I received a notification from the Better Business Bureau regarding your complaint.I reviewed your account and noticed that a membership was started via a 30 day free trial on May 15, 2023. I was unable to locate any membership activation prior to this date. On July 28, 2024, 12 refunds were issued for membership fees from July 15, 2023 to June 15, 2024. The total amount of the refund that was issued was $187.38. Since the refunds were previously issued, we will need documentation from the financial institution associated with the card stating that the refund has not been received. The letter must be on bank letterhead and include the reference numbers for each charge. Here are the transaction ID numbers for your reference:

It was noted that your membership had not been successfully canceled and you were owed a refund for June 15, 2023 and July 15, 2024. A link for Amazon Touchstone was sent to you to process a wire transfer of $31.23 because the credit card that was charged is no longer active.

      I have been charged on my credit card for the past 4 months for an Audible subscription that I did not sign up for. In fact, when I called them to question this, they said I cannot cancel this since I DO NOT have an Audible account. I have to file a dispute with my credit card company each month. Neither Amazon nor Audible will help. Thank you for any help in resolving these reoccurring issues.

      We were unable to identify an Audible account with related membership charges under the email address that was provided. I have contacted the customer requesting additional information to assist in identifying the Audible account with the related charges so we can provide a resolution. Awaiting the customer reply.

      Tried to cancel membership by phone 3 times before free trial ran out and they said there was a technical issue on their end. I was billed today because trial ran out so I tried calling again today, was transferred to 4 different people because no one knows how to do it might I add you have to give each person all your info several times. Went through ****** to try to cancel it and finally found what I thought would cancel it but when you select cancel it just gives you a blank screen. I want a refund and I want it canceled!
