    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 and the matter has been resolved.

    AMC may want to review their internal processes a bit more.  The primary reason why this was submitted was because of the lack of response.  According to the respondent, the service team sent emailed messages however those must have never left the agent email platform or the email alias was fatfingered or they have it wrong in my account.  Nonetheless, after sending several emails one might think that someone there would take the initiative and make a phone call.

    Be Better.

    Thank you for making the adjustment and for honoring the premium.


    Sincerely,

    ********* ****

    We apologize for the inconvenience and difficulty contacting us via social media. We attempted to reach out via email but didnt hear back.

    As a courtesy, we have provided partial refunds for all of your charges since the price increase, going back to February 11th. These partial refunds bring your charges down to the old rate of $4.99. We have also adjusted your invoice for the next monthly charge on August 11th with a $2 credit, to bring that in line with the original $4.99 rate and give you some time to consider if you'd like to continue with your subscription. After that renewal, however, if you decide to remain subscribed, your charges will be in line with the current rate of $6.99.

    Regarding your questions about our recent price increasethis was to support ongoing improvements. Price increase notifications were sent out in December 2024, prior to the rollout.

    If you have further questions or need help with your subscription, feel free to reply to our last email linked to your account or contact us directly at ****************************************** or ************.

    Hi there,I purchased a membership to AMC+ last night and was excited to start watching one of my favorite shows right away. However, I was really frustrated to find that the show and everything else on the platform wouldnt load at all. I waited and tried again today, but the issue continued, so I ended up canceling my membership.Since I wasnt able to access any content and the app and website clearly arent working properly, Im requesting a full refund for the $10 I ******* make things worse, your Contact Us page does not work, and I tried two different email addresses that also didnt go through. At this point, it feels like a scam completely not user-friendly, and impossible to get support or assistance.Please refund my payment and resolve this issue.

    the business refused to address the concerns, only citing policy rather than acklowledging that an error could have occured, that their business practice is dishonest, or offer any real solutions.  A one sentence response is not a response.  I do hope they will reconsider.

    The customer's refund request was outside the refund policy. The subscription was set to cancel and they still have access until the end of the billing cycle.

    [Your Answer Here]

    They have continued to tell me the same statement that will not resolve my issue and they are not listening to what I have said as a consumer. AMC theaters and all their services will be losing me as a customer. This is not a good look for them further considering they are facing a class action lawsuit regarding hidden fees.
