Hi there, Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the payment you received after uninstalling the app. We’ve reviewed your account and can confirm that the app was uninstalled on July 21, at which point all campaigns were automatically paused. On July 26, the final invoice was generated to cover Web campaigns activity that occurred before the uninstallation. Rest assured, this was the last invoice, and it reflects only the impressions served prior to the app being removed. Billing Styles https://help.adroll.com/hc/en-us/articles/212518057-Billing-Styles documentation for more details on the same. Regarding Facebook campaigns, please note that all billing for Facebook is managed directly by Facebook through the ad account you’ve connected. Managing your Connected Ad Channels in AdRoll https://help.adroll.com/hc/en-us/articles/5638393691021-Managing-your-Connected-Ad-Channels-in-AdRoll If you have any concerns about Facebook campaign activity or charges, we recommend contacting Facebook Support for further assistance.

Hi there, I’m Rohini from the AdRoll Customer Support team. First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude for sharing your experience with us. I’m truly sorry to hear that it wasn’t a positive one, and I sincerely regret any inconvenience it may have caused you. I’ve taken a look at your account and can assure you that there have been no attempts made to collect any amount. I also noticed that there’s a campaign currently in draft status. When a campaign is launched, a "Temporary Hold" is placed to verify the payment method's validity as part of our standard approval process. Please note that this Temporary Hold is not an actual charge, and the amount is reversed immediately from our end. Additionally, this information is available in the Campaign Budget Settings, clarifying that it’s not a charge. We strive to maintain transparency regarding our platform. Also, I can confirm that there were no attempts for the temporary hold as well. You may refer to this help article for more details - https://help.adroll.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049332892-Temporary-Hold-in-AdRoll We set a high standard for ourselves, and I would love to follow up with you personally to address all your concerns and help you understand our platform better. I have sent you an email, so please feel free to reply at your convenience, and I will be happy to assist you further. I am eager to regain your trust and showcase the excellence of our service. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we are committed to resolving any issues. Thanks, Rohini Updated Response: Hi there, I appreciate for taking the time and explaining the situation. Please be informed that our system is encrypted, SEC compliant, and doesn't store any credit card information. It uses a secure key, and all payment data is securely handled by our trusted payment gateways, which are reputable and fully compliant with industry security standards. So, there is virtually no possibility that a customer's credit card information could be compromised through the AdRoll dashboard. We believe it may be a coincidence that the credit card issue occurred around the same time as the use of AdRoll. Additionally, we’ve double-checked the account and found no signs of unusual or suspicious activity. It appears to be a misunderstanding, but I can confirm that there is no security concern from our end. Please be assured, protecting our customers’ data is our highest priority, and we remain committed to maintaining the highest security standards at all times. Your trust means a lot to us, and we’re happy to provide any additional information you may need. You can revert to the email that I have sent anytime. Thanks, Rohini

Hi Kaspar, thank you for sharing your feedback. I want to start by sincerely apologizing for the experience you’ve had. I’ve reviewed the latest status, and I can confirm that our Finance team processed refund on May 16th. If you haven't seen the funds yet, we recommend reaching out to your bank provider for more information on the transaction status. We understand that this situation has caused inconvenience, and we're fully committed to making it right. To help ensure smooth communication, I’ve also sent you an email directly. I’d be happy to hear from you and assist further whenever you're ready. Sincerely, Tatiana

Hi there, I am Rohini from the AdRoll Customer Support Team. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with AdRoll. I truly empathize with the disappointment you felt. I completely understand that receiving multiple emails for the same context would be unsettling and I am here to clarify the situation. Please know that we do send an email confirming that the Shopify integration has been removed and the next steps after that would be to pause the campaigns and cancel if there are any subscription plans automatically. However, this email would be sent only once after the AdRoll app is deleted from the Shopify account. It looks like there was a temporary glitch due to which numerous emails were sent. I genuinely regret the inconvenience caused and we are committed to addressing it. Our goal is to ensure your satisfaction throughout the entire process. I'd love to follow up personally with you so I have sent an email. Please take a moment to check your inbox whenever you have time. I hope for the opportunity to regain your trust and demonstrate the quality of service that we are known for. I wish you a fantastic rest of the day and eagerly await your response to the email. Thank you, Rohini

I truly appreciate it, and I’m really sorry to hear that your recent experience didn’t meet expectations. We greatly value your input and are genuinely sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction.

I’d like to personally follow up on your case and ensure we get this sorted for you as soon as possible.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. I’m Tatiana from the AdRoll Customer Support team. First, I would like to thank you for your honest feedback regarding our platform's UI. AdRoll values transparency and appreciates your input. I’m truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. We aim to make our interface user-friendly, and I apologize if it felt confusing. Our platform might initially seem complex due to the wide spectrum of services we offer. However, we’re always here to provide step-by-step guidance through screenshots or personalized video recordings to help you navigate the setup process smoothly. Regarding your campaigns, I understand your frustration with the ROI and billing. Our Brand Awareness campaigns are designed to attract new visitors, but for better sales results, we recommend Retargeting campaigns. I’d love to assist you in optimizing your campaigns to improve performance and meet your expectations. Once again, we value your input and are committed to improving our services. Please let us know how we can turn your experience around. Feel free to reply to the email I've sent to you with any questions. Thank you, and I hope to hear from you soon. Warmest regards, Tatiana

Hi Celeste, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I am sorry to know our support did not meet your expectations. We've thoroughly reviewed every concern and every chat conversation with you. Here are our findings: Regarding Dynamic Creatives: As the name suggests, Dynamic Banners showcase products from your website dynamically based on the customer's activity (Retargeting campaign) or the most popular products in the Brand Awareness campaign when the user has never visited your site before. The products shown in the Dashboard are just templates, and we also provide Demo Links to demonstrate how they may look in a live environment. Logo Color: Please know that there has been no issue with the color of your logo. While we acknowledge your feedback about discrepancies in color between the Dashboard and the live environment, the logo was being displayed accurately in live banners. However, we have taken this feedback seriously and shared it with the Product Team to improve our services and ensure clarity for all our clients. Thank you for bringing this to our attention; your insights are invaluable to us. Verifying Campaigns live in action: Our team has provided detailed instructions on how to view the banners live by retargeting yourself with your own banners. While it's a hassle-free process, it may require time to be captured with cookies and post retargeted. GDPR banner (Customized Cookie Banner): We want to clarify that the customized cookie banner embedded in your website's source code cannot be removed by anyone without access to your website. Once you've accepted or rejected the Cookie Banner, it won't be displayed again unless cache and cookies are cleared. To verify this, kindly use Incognito mode (or clear cache and cookies) and revisit your website; you should see your cookie banner without any issues. We hope this clarifies the situation you've been experiencing. Please know that we're fully committed to assisting you further and ensuring your experience with us is as smooth and positive as possible. If there's anything else we can do to help, please don't hesitate to reach out. Additionally, I've sent the email to you to ensure our communication remains seamless. Feel free to respond to it, and I'll gladly address any additional concerns you may have. Warmest regards, Tatiana

Hi there, I am Rohini from the AdRoll Customer Support team. Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. I'm genuinely sorry to learn that your experience was not as expected, and I apologize for any trouble it has caused. Please be assured that I am here to make it out for you. To assist you further, I have reviewed the account and can confirm that there are no active plans at the moment. I want to assure you that we do not charge once the plan is canceled or the account is closed. It seems there was a bit of misperception because it looks like the account was removed on Shopify, but was not closed from the AdRoll directly. Please know if the AdRoll +Shopify integration is removed, there will be an email sent from our end informing the active campaigns/plans will be paused/canceled within 24 hours as shown here: https://app.screencast.com/3LMKgdFDHZhDZ. And, our system will automatically downgrade the plan. However, it looks like the invoice was generated while the integration removal status was not reflected as it would take a maximum of 24 hours to reflect the same on the AdRoll dashboard. Thus, an invoice was generated. Nevertheless, I want to assure you that there will be no charges from our end, and I will personally contact our Finance team to make sure everything is resolved. I’d also like to follow up with you personally to address any concerns you might have. I want to make this right for you. I have sent you an email, so please reply at your convenience, and I will be happy to assist you further. I am eager to regain your trust and showcase the excellence of our service. Your satisfaction is our top concern, and we are committed to addressing any issues. Thanks, Rohini

Hi there, This is Rohini from AdRoll's Customer Support Team. I sincerely apologize that the results of your campaign did not align with your expectations. Additionally, I understand that there are concerns about the associated charges. I reviewed your profile and could see that we have charged for the Lookalike campaign which served impressions. I want to assure you that we do not impose charges if a campaign or plan has been ended/canceled. Please know that the amount we collected was a part of the ad campaign spend which is not included in the monthly subscription plans. Our pricing model for the display ad campaign is based on dynamic CPM where we charge you only for the impressions served. The subscription plan does not include the display ad campaign spend. We have mentioned it in our pricing article here: https://www.screencast.com/t/KakPJoDwpfNN. That being said, I see that the plan was canceled before renewal and as a result, we didn't charge for it as it was in the free trial. If you have time, I’d love to follow up with you to understand your goals and offer my help, hence, I will write a detailed email. I hope that helps. Regards, Rohini

Hi George! This is Rohini from AdRoll's Customer Support Team. Firstly, I'd thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent experience with us. We greatly value your input and are genuinely sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction. We understand how important it is to have a seamless and positive experience with our services, and we deeply regret any inconvenience you may have encountered. Regarding the perceived charge, I'd want to clarify that no amount was collected from your account. The amount of $70 was for the authorization (not an actual charge) which happens when a campaign is launched or the budget is updated for an existing campaign. Trust me, these are just for the validation process and we void the authorization amount immediately from our end. You may refer to this help article to know about authorizations - https://help.adroll.com/hc/en-us/articles/360049332892-Payment-Method-Authorization- Coming to the ads that are not running, kindly know that we have a few restrictions and you could find our policies overview here: https://help.adroll.com/hc/en-us/articles/360030884472-Advertising-Policies-Overview Once again, I sincerely apologize for any frustration or inconvenience you've experienced. Also, I'd love to follow up with you personally and address all your concerns that can help understand our platform, hence, I will write a detailed email. I hope that helps. Regards, Rohini

Hello, Tatiana here from the AdRoll Customer Support Team. I wanted to express my gratitude for sharing your feedback with us. I'm truly sorry to hear that the results of your campaigns did not meet your expectations, and that you experienced some issues with the Free Ads Request. Please know that we take your concerns seriously and are committed to addressing them promptly. Our goal is to ensure your satisfaction throughout the entire process. I have already contacted you via email, and I kindly request that you take a moment to check your inbox. I genuinely hope to have the opportunity to rebuild your trust and showcase the exceptional quality of service we are renowned for. Warmest regards, Tatiana

Hi there, Tatiana from AdRoll's Customer Support team here. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. I truly appreciate your constructive input as it helps us identify areas where we can enhance our services and ensure that our valued customers feel confident and well taken care of. I understand that you may be experiencing frustration due to several concerns, and I would be happy to address them individually below. We do offer a Free plan called "Ads Only" with no platform charges. It allows you to run Web Display ads using our Dynamic CPM pricing model. The plan you were charged for is our paid Marketing and Ads Plus package, which includes additional features like importing social channels, unlimited emails, marketing recipes, and Ad Credits for web campaigns. Deleting the AdRoll app from your Shopify store doesn't automatically cancel the paid package as this is a different platform. You need to cancel the plan from your dashboard settings if you no longer wish to use it. By doing so, you can avoid further charges. By default, invoices are sent to your mailbox. However, if you manually opted out of receiving them, you may not receive invoices via email. Regarding refunds, customers are responsible for purchasing or canceling our paid subscription plans. If technical issues prevented you from utilizing the plan or canceling it, we can investigate and consider a complete refund. However, as a courtesy, our Finance team can refund up to one month's package amount. We understand that you have raised concerns, and I want to assure you that our manager is actively addressing them. Your feedback is highly valuable to us, and we take it seriously. We are committed to making improvements based on your input to enhance your experience with our services. Please let us know if there's anything else we may assist you with, we are always there for you.

Hi there, Tatiana from AdRoll's Customer Support team here. I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing a drop in sales and suspect it may be related to our platform. I understand how concerning this can be, and I'm here to assist you in investigating and resolving the issue. I see our Supervisor is already in contact with you about your concerns. We have started investigating this to know what exactly the issue is as this seems to be pretty unusual. Please note, we take these matters seriously and want to ensure we understand the issue fully. You may be required to provide us with more details and answer a few questions so we can check it thoroughly and share the right solution. Please stay in touch with us and provide requested details. This will enable us to work towards resolving it and improving your overall experience with us. Thank you for your cooperation, and we appreciate your patience as we work towards a solution. Cheers!

Hi there, Tatiana is here from AdRoll's Customer Support team. I am sorry to read that you are not happy with the way our campaign performance reporting is currently happening. But we do have an explanation for it as how we report your campaign metrics may differ from other platforms that you may be using. Kindly allow me a chance to turn your experience around as the customer satisfaction is always a number one priority for us. We do not charge you based on the number of clicks. Our Pricing is solely based on the Dynamic CPM model where we charge you only for the number of impressions served by the campaign irrespective of the number of Clicks and Conversions. Our dashboard doesn't report live metrics as the bidding happens within milliseconds. Sometimes it is possible that some metrics may update faster than the others. So, we suggest allowing up to 48 hours and check the dashboard for accurate KPI reporting. Having said this, I will write a detailed email regarding all your concerns that can help understand our reporting data as well as optimization tips to improve the performance so that the campaign meets your goals. I hope that helps. Sincerely, Tatiana

Hi there, This is Rohini from AdRoll's Customer Support Team. We are disheartened to hear that you have had such a poor experience with us. We always strive incredibly hard here to make every customer experience the best. However, I understand we’ve not been able to meet your expectations this time, and I am sorry about it. Currently, our supervisors are looking deeper into your request regarding getting in touch via phone call. Coming to the charges, kindly note, it was collected as a part of the 'Marketing & Ads Plus' subscription plan. Be assured, I am checking with our Finance team regarding the refund as well. I'll make sure you'll get an update as soon as possible and get it sorted. Thank you!

Hello Taylor, This is Ewa from AdRoll's Customer Support Team, Thank you for your review. I’m sorry to hear you had a frustrating experience, but I really appreciate you bringing this issue to my attention - could you please check your inbox? The refund has been initiated last week. My colleague, Aayush has contacted you about it as well. We set a high standard for ourselves, and we’re so sorry to hear this was not met in your interaction with our business. Would you mind providing me with more information on the team not responding? I'd like to look into it deeper as from our side it looks like all the concerns have been addressed. Thank you, Ewa

Hello there, This is Ewa from AdRoll's Customer Support Team, Firstly, I wanted to thank you for your honest assessment of your experience with AdRoll. I am very sorry to hear we haven’t met your expectations. I see that your account with AdRoll is now closed - I'm very sorry to see that. If you have time, I’d love to follow up with you to understand the improvements needed to earn your recommendation. Currently, our supervisors are looking deeper into your request with regards to removing the personal data - I'll make sure you'll get an update as soon as possible. Feel free to reply to the emails send if you’re open to discussing more. Cheers, Ewa

Hello there, This is Ewa from AdRoll’s Customer Support Team. Thank you for posting a review and we’re sorry to hear that your experience was not up to standards. I understand that you’ve been overcharged for a click - I understand that $1.00 for a click was not ideal - please understand, that at AdRoll we charge for the impressions served by the campaign and not clicks - it is called dCPM, cost per 1000 impressions served. To ensure that your ads serve to the right users on the best quality sites, we have a dedicated Trust and Safety team in place for both manual and automated monitoring - over 99% of invalid traffic is caught through AdRoll’s proactive solutions before it can have any significant impact. We always aim to deliver a great experience, and we are gutted when we don’t meet expectations. Thanks for taking the time to bring this to our attention. I’ve emailed you directly to investigate the issue deeper and earn your recommendation. If interested, send us an email at [email protected], and we will set up some time to chat. Cheers
