Lose It! App is auto-renewing despite multiple attempts to cancel. It was purchased through the website using an email address I no longer have, but which is required to cancel online. There is absolutely no contact information on their site in order to speak with a real person and the chat bot just keeps sending you to the website. If you ask for a refund via the website you get an email asking you to login. Its an endless loop.Initial Complaint

I purchased the yearly membership for ***** plus tax. The next day I was sent an offer for a lifetime membership for *****. I decided to go ahead and purchase it. I then went to cancel the ***** plan that I had paid for the day before and it wouldnt allow me to do so. I emailed them and received a response that I had been credited. After no credit I emailed again. Again I was told that I had been credited. When this again didnt happen I emailed again. This time I was told because I had purchased the yearly plan for ***** I was eligible for an ADDITIONAL ***** to purchase lifetime. At no point did they say this from the time they made the offer to the various emails I sent. I feel scammed as I would have never paid ***** plus *****. I want my money back but cant get them to refund.Business Response

I am using the app/service LoseIt!. I intended to upgrade to a lifetime subscription. I accidentally typed in the wrong email address to upgrade and the app won't allow me to fix my mistake. So I can't upgrade to the lifetime subscription. There is a chronic error and I can't find any way to fix it. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, but the wrong email address is stuck in their system. I want a remedy. I would never have started with this app had I been aware that it was fully automated and had no thinking brains behind the company. I still wish to upgrade, but am stuck in an endless maze of non-sense that gets me no where. Please fix!!! Thank you.Business Response

Dear LoseIt!,
It would be nice not to have to complain to get a problem solved. That said, thank you for taking care of this issue within what seems like 24 hours. Great business response.
Thank you!!!!

Yesterday, my card was charged $21.39 for an annual subscription I did not intend to keep. I followed the cancellation instructions on their website to stop this, but their website doesn't support cancellations of memberships. I ensured the membership was purchased on the correct platform (their site) but there is no option to cancel a subscription.Business Response

Lose is not just an app developer; it is offering a retail product on line via a variety of subscription levels and costs and then offering billing though a variety of platforms.
Lose It is indicating they do not have access to the Apple billing system yet they have the ability to tell apple what plan type and invoice fee to charge and they receive payments from Apple?
I have read numerous complaints about the difficulties people encounter in trying to cancel; please make working with you easier.
I will try to work through this with Apple on the weblink provided from Lose it.

Apple does not allow app developers make changes in their payment platform. Refund/Cancellations must be done directly through Apple/the App Store.
But, our records indicate you are able to cancel the Premium subscription, so you will not be charged again for Premium, and your Premium account will now expire on December 22, 2023.
