Hidden Costs Breakdown

1

SMS marketing add-on

trustpilot

The UI is subpar and the usage of a toll free number automatically sends texts to Spam folders. After asking for a refund due to the fact that I couldn't use the service, they declined my request...

2

Difficult cancellation and continued billing

trustpilot

The worst. I tried to cancel an account that had been inactive for years --- 3 times. It was almost impossible and I hung up once. When I called back, they said that because I hung up the account wasn't canceled. More than $2,000 in bogus charges.

trustpilot

the worst cancel service ever - they charge you another month after you cancel WTH! also make you live chat or call in to cancel and the customer service agents are terrible!!!!

3

Credit card required for trial

trustpilot

I strongly advise against signing up, even for the free trial. The cancellation process is intentionally complicated -- there's no straightforward way to cancel your subscription.

trustpilot

I created trial account and I was being taken around from one problem to another until it expires and they made it so compulsory that you can not deactivate/delete your account...

4

Steep price jumps at contact boundaries

The fees have been increasing and getting more and more unaffordable. I have been with Campaigner for years

Essentials: $72/mo (10K) to $158/mo (25K); Advanced: $124/mo (10K) to $258/mo (25K)

Reputation Defender add-on

Reputation Defender available as paid add-on for all plans

30-Day Cancellation Notice Requirement

medium support

Users must provide 30 days advance notice before cancellation becomes effective, meaning they are billed for an additional month even after deciding to cancel. This applies even if the service is not being used during that period.

When you choose a platform, how they treat their customers says a lot. These guys will take the bag regardless of your situation.

7

Automatic Post-Trial Charging

medium addon

Credit card is required upfront for the free trial, and the service automatically converts to paid subscription after 30 days without active confirmation. Multiple users report being charged without sufficient notice or reminder about trial expiration.

trustpilot

They are scammers, I should have never even talked to them because they steal your money and never contact you. I had a 30-day trial and never used it then saw a charge on my card. You would assume they would check in when there is no activity on the account.

trustpilot

They attempted to charge me on December 12th but the transaction was declined and they never contacted me tried again later in the month without any notice whatsoever.

8

Price Increases Over Time

medium support

Existing customers report that fees have been increasing over time, making the service progressively less affordable even for long-term users who have been with the platform for years.

Dedicated IP Requirement for Deliverability

high addon

Shared IP addresses frequently appear on blacklists, forcing users to upgrade to dedicated IPs to maintain email deliverability. One user reported their shared IP was on 16 blacklists simultaneously.

trustradius

Shared IPs get on blacklists frequently... Without a dedicated IP, you are likely to be on an IP with spammers. We noticed that one IP they assigned us was on 16 blacklists.

trustpilot

PLEASE RUN.... I have to deactivate my credit card to avoid their charges... There you start another one month of frustration with your payments being deducted at the end of the month.
