      Very deceptive business practices! I opened an account and closed it within the free trial period. One month later, I was charged for the 1st month. I contacted them and was told that I had opened 2 accounts (certainly without my knowledge) and one was cancelled but now I owed a $100 cancellation fee for the unknown and unused 2nd account. It is extremely unfortunate that Adobe seems to have a monopoly on the entire internet system!

      As part of a college course, I was required to use an Adobe software tool for two months. I paid a monthly subscription fee for two months but then Adobe refused to stop charging my credit card on a recurring monthly basis. I never agreed to an auto-renewal clearly because my college course only required my making two monthly payments. When I contacted ADOBE and let them know I never agreed to a monthly auto-renewal, they said they can only cancel the auto-renewal if I agree to pay a large penalty. The penalty was larger than the price I paid for two months of service. I have now been having to dispute all Adobe charges directly with my credit card company which is a major inconvenience. Bottom line is I would recommend you avoid Adobe at all costs. Every product they offer can usually be obtained by a different provider especially in this AI era we are moving towards. I just want to warn you that Adobe is well known for using deceiving tactics to get customers caught in subscription services that the customer never authorized.

      This company should be forcefully disbanded by the **** They deliberately lie to customers about what you're signing up for, using "free trials" to trick customers into signing a 1yr commitment. Among other shady practices. Myself personally I tried to cancel my monthly subscription and had to argue with customer service to get the "Cancellation fee" waived. They then sent me a threatening email saying I owe them money even though their customer service rep agreed to waive the insane (and extremely illegal) cancellation fee!They're lucky I don't bring this to my lawyer. I've never seen or heard of another company doing such blatantly illegal practices. I will never use an adobe product again. I canceled months ago and have no intention of ever going back. I've been using Photoshop for decades but no more. They lost a long time customer and I'm not the only one. This company needs to be investigated.

      I had to change and cancel an email address and forgot that this address was used to set up my Adobe account. Therefore, I set out to determine how to change it. First, there is absolutely no way to get help with this online. I tried. Even tried the chat. There is also no phone number provided for customer service so I had to ****** it, which I did. When I got through to someone, I could barely understand her English. Once she determined what I needed, she transferred me to a "specialist". After I gave him the same information I gave to the first Adobe employee, he informed me he could not change it either. I hung up out of frustration and once again called so-called "customer service." This ********************** employee could not spell and would not just cancel my service. He kept wanting to put me on hold. I said to just cancel my service. He wouldn;t do it and put me on hold anyway. Then he comes back trying to keep my business. I literally yelled at him to cancel my service. He then said he had the right to tell me his information!!!! I yelled again to cancel my service. Only then did he do it. I have never experienced anything like this. He acted like he was the customer. It was incredible. This company should be fined heavily for its horrible customer relations.

      Adobe has a predatory subscription commitment approach. To stop your membership, you have to pay $100. Which just feels inappropriate since there is zero cost to them to end it.

      Adobe continues to try and invoice me although I have canceled my contract with them and paid my invoice in full.

      Maybe the singlehanded most horrendous experience I've had with a company. Their predatory licensing tactics are honestly revolutionary.

      Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Activation failed. No help from Adobe. Was told it's an old product while I can activate Photoshop 4 from 2006.

      I signed up for adobe acrobat with a business account- I was forced to chat with a sales rep for 20 minutes just to cancel... asked them to cancel right from the start and they kept trying to sell it at a cheaper rate.No option to cancel on the site without talking to someone.Support Name: Hafizul TERRIBLE!

      I think it's funny you called and requested to cancel your subscription in April and give you two free months of the products, only to realize you were getting charged nearly $50 in June. Then, you called again last month and told them about the situation, lied to you, and stated they canceled your subscription while showing you an email for proof. This morning, I got charged again and spent about an hour talking to two managers, and threatened legal action if they did not rectify this mess. I told them they have 48 hours to refund all the money they've charged me since April, which is around $100. If you are reading this, save your time, money, and sanity, and DO NOT EVER GET ADOBE!
