They will increase price for no reason, and stop giving you options to choose. the first time they over charged me by 70 dollars, I contacted them, got a refund, and this time they went from 30 40 a month to 80 a month, WITHOUT notifying me.

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. We truly value your feedback and would like to provide some clarity regarding how our quarterly plans work and address your billing inquiry. The quarterly plan you initially subscribed to was a one-time offer that included a 30% discount. Once the 3-month period ended, your account automatically transitioned to a monthly plan based on your contact tier, as the quarterly discount is no longer active. When you first upgraded, your contact tier allowed up to 4,500 billable contacts, which was priced at $75/month under the discounted quarterly plan. However, we noticed your billable contacts have now increased to 4,510, which has placed your account into the $80/month tier. This change, combined with the shift to a monthly plan, explains the difference in your most recent charge. Our senior billing specialist has already reached out to you to provide a more detailed explanation and offer a personalized plan based on your needs. Please check your in-app messages or email for further details. We appreciate your understanding, and we’re here to assist you further if you have any additional questions or need further clarification.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that unexpected charges can be frustrating, and we’re here to clarify and ensure transparency regarding your billing. As with most email marketing platforms, Omnisend’s pricing is based on the number of contacts (subscribers and non-subscribers, we do not charge for unsubscribers), meaning higher contact lists or additionally purchased email credits can lead to added costs. When your account exceeded the included email credits, additional credits were offered and purchased from your side to allow you to continue sending email campaigns, resulting in the $69 charge on October 26th. This charge was solely for the extra credits used beyond your regular monthly allocation. Our senior support specialist has reviewed each past invoice with you in detail to ensure clarity on your billing history and the options available to optimize your plan. We genuinely appreciate the chance to work with you on finding a solution that better aligns with your needs moving forward. If you have any further questions or if there’s anything else we can assist with, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to address your concerns and look forward to supporting you moving forward.

BE AWARE - they don't disclose this before installing the app. "Kindly note that as of now, the Omnisend logo can only be removed from your Forms and Campaigns if you are subscribed to one of our paid plans, either the Standard or Pro plan." I could maybe go with Omnisend logos showing up on the bottom of an email, but not on a sign-up popup! That makes the free plan pretty much useless. Also, they failed with the first try of communication. After a long wait, I received a quick reply that didn't address all my questions, and then they just stopped responding altogether. I spent an entire day trying to figure out how this app works, but at least I discovered these issues early, giving me the chance to switch to a different app. It makes me wonder, how can you build a business with this kind of customer treatment?

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, and I’m truly sorry to hear that it fell short of your expectations. I understand how frustrating it must have been to discover the Omnisend logo on your sign-up popup and to feel that our response didn’t fully address your concerns. That’s not the experience we aim to provide, and your feedback helps us improve. The Omnisend logo appears on forms and emails within the Free plan as part of a balance that allows us to provide powerful tools at no cost. With the Free plan, we offer a suite of advanced marketing features – including automations, forms, product reviews, integrations, SMS and push notifications channels, as well as live chat support available 24/7, 365 days a year – all of which can be explored without a paid subscription. Having our logo on communications created within the Free plan helps us keep it accessible and free, while also allowing businesses to use many of the same capabilities found in paid plans. This way, we can continue supporting businesses of all sizes, including those just starting out, while also offering a seamless upgrade path that removes the logo for those ready to access even more premium features. I’m sorry to hear that our first response missed the mark; that’s certainly not the standard of support we aim to deliver. As we approach Black Friday and Cyber Monday, our response times might be a tiny bit longer than usual, but please rest assured that we’re doing our best to assist everyone as quickly as possible. If there’s anything we can still clarify or assist you with, please let us know – we’d love the chance to make it right. Thank you again for helping us improve, and we wish you all the best with your email marketing journey.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. After investigating the issue, we noticed that you currently don’t have any active plans under your account, though it’s possible that one of your other brands may have an active subscription. We’ve reviewed the following stores: Ctronics, de.ctronics, uk.ctronics, and fr.xega - where reviews were posted, but we couldn’t locate the specific charge mentioned. We’d like to better understand which pricing you are referring to, as we haven’t been able to identify such a change. Our senior support specialist has reached out to you directly to help identify which store has experienced the price increase and to locate the conversation where you requested a refund, as we were unable to find any record of it. We want to reassure you that our pricing structure is fully transparent and adjusts based on the number of billable contacts in your account. As the number of contacts increases, the monthly fee adjusts accordingly. On the other hand, if the number of billable contacts decreases, so does the pricing. This flexibility ensures that the cost is directly aligned with your needs and the resources required. We look forward to your reply and are committed to resolving this as soon as possible. Our customer support team is ready to assist you further and clarify the situation.

After using this plugin, the package price was secretly increased without any notice, from 20 USD to 88 USD at the highest. There was no reminder when subscribing, and no refund after I questioned it. This is totally unreasonable, this is a scam company!!!

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We understand the issue you’re facing, and our senior support specialist has reached out via email with more details and suggestions to assist you. Our system is built to deliver emails directly to the main inbox. However, inbox placement can vary depending on the recipient's settings. For example, in Gmail, emails may land in the Promotions tab if tabs are enabled, or they may be affected by strong spam filters. This is something neither we nor any email marketing platform can fully control. It's important to note that the Promotions tab is part of the main inbox, not a spam folder, and many users actively engage with it. We kindly invite you to check the email our senior support specialist sent and feel free to discuss this topic further or raise any concerns you might have. We’re at your disposal and happy to assist!

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We genuinely appreciate it and are sorry to hear about your experience. Regarding your concerns about customer service, we understand the frustration you've faced, particularly with the shipping confirmation challenge. Since we do not have an integration with the third-party app you’re using, we suggested two potential solutions that require a better understanding of certain aspects. The articles we provided contain screenshots and detailed explanations to help clarify these solutions. If you have any follow-up questions, please feel free to ask. Our senior support specialist is currently handling your conversation to ensure you receive the best possible assistance. As for the $10 charge, we want to clarify that while you are on a free plan, you also have an active SMS credits subscription for $10 per month. This charge is related to that subscription. If you no longer need it, you can cancel it directly in your store settings. Should you require additional instructions or if you would like us to cancel it for you, please let our senior support specialist know, and we’ll handle it promptly. We’ve also sent a separate email, as it seems you may have missed several in-app messages we've sent that clarify your recent concerns. Thank you again for your feedback, and we’re here to help!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand your concerns, and I want to let you know that our senior customer support specialist has already reached out to you via email with a detailed breakdown of your charges and an explanation of the pricing increase. To provide a more general overview, our billing system works based on the size of your audience. Each billing cycle, we calculate the number of subscribers and non-subscribers you have, which places you in a specific pricing tier. As your contact list grows, this requires more email credits, which is reflected in your subscription cost. It’s actually a good sign for your business that your contact base has increased, but we understand that rising costs can be concerning. If you’d like to reduce your fee, we recommend cleaning your list by removing inactive or old contacts who aren’t engaging with your emails. Segmenting your audience can help lower costs, and you can follow these instructions to do so: https://support.omnisend.com/en/articles/1061868-segmenting-inactive-contacts. We hope this helps clarify the situation, and if you have any further questions, feel free to reply to the email we've sent to you. We will be happy to further clarify any concerns you might have. We’re here to help ensure that you’re getting the best value from our service.

STAY CLEAR - I would say stay away from this company if you would like customer support. They don’t provide anything but empty promises and ongoing stress. The only lady that has been helpful was the one that set it up but apart from that it’s terrible. They charge you for a subscription you can’t even access and when you ask for a refund they say well it’s because there was still emails getting sent out you still have to pay. ( what a joke because I couldn’t even get access to the account ) went to my bank and forced the refund on Omnisend as it wasn’t suppling the full goods or service I was paying for. And now the stupid company won’t disconnect from my website and keep sending me emails saying I need to pay money for sms credits but they confirm my account has been cancelled and closed off? But no it hasn’t as if I go on my website the automations are still running, but now I’m not paying so what a nightmare. Sort your workflow and customer accounts out as I don’t want to be associated with omnisend anymore. Remove my details and unlink from my website. Enough is enough!!!

This app was good, untill they started deceiving their customers. At first, the payment was based on how many emails and sms messages can you send, now they are doing some tricky way to take money from you, and they are charging on the amount of subscribers you have. We have just 600 active subscribers, and they are charging us like we have 3000 +. HIGHLY AVOID THIS APP!!!

UPDATE: No resolution has been reached, and the only pricing you offer is for the quantity of emails and messages sent. Very nice smoke and mirrors response. Omnisend keeps increasing the price of our subscription, hoping we won't notice. Since we don't send out emails monthly, they now charge us $25 a month for sending zero emails. Additionally, we currently don't use their services; we just maintain our subscription to collect emails. Additionally, we placed a hold on the card we were using until we could contact Omnisend. However, we were required to pay our invoice before being able to contact support. This is extremely poor service and reflects the platform's prioritization of greed over customer care.

We apologize for any frustration and confusion caused by our billing system. To clarify, our billing system calculates the number of subscribers and non-subscribers in your audience each billing cycle, which determines your price tier.

They are taking advantage of customers. Despite preventing me from sending SMS, they refuse to refund my money. In 2024, paying for email sends is outdated when other services offer unlimited emails with their plans. They won't let me use SMS but won't return my funds either. Diego behaves like a con artist. Initially, when I asked for a refund, he ignored my messages over several days. Later, when I tried sending an SMS out of frustration, he claimed I forfeited my refund eligibility for attempting to use the service. This platform isn't user-friendly; you can't buy SMS credits as needed but must subscribe upfront. If you want to add credits for a specific message, you have to contact their team via chat and wait 4-8 hours for them to charge your card manually. Despite sending an SMS to 21,000 contacts, not one person visited the website, suggesting the message didn't go through. Plus, they don't provide a dedicated toll-free number; instead, they share one with other businesses, leading to confusion among customers receiving messages from multiple sources. Overall, Omnisend is utterly disappointing. Try Postscript instead.

Hello there, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced. The situation arose due to a high volume of SMS messages sent after a long period of inactivity, resulting in a significant unsubscribe rate. Specifically, more than 48,000 SMS messages were sent in 5 days, which goes against the best practices of SMS marketing and the reasonable frequency principle advised by TCPA. Additionally, the TCPA mandates that telemarketing calls, including SMS marketing messages, must not be made to residential telephone subscribers before 8 AM or after 9 PM (local time of the recipient). While we have this setting enabled by default in Omnisend, it was manually disabled on your end. Unfortunately, due to this usage, it is not possible to proceed with a refund. We encourage you to follow best practices for SMS marketing to ensure optimal results and compliance. Our team is here to help you navigate these guidelines and improve your campaign effectiveness, in the future. A senior representative has contacted you to address the situation in detail. Please respond to their email at your earliest convenience. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work towards a satisfactory resolution.

I had a very bad experience with Omnisend, They stopped providing me service, but did not refund my money They advertise that their service is unlimited emails, but their definition of unlimited is x60 contacts, which they only note in a very small way on the pricing page. They present a problem and do not provide a solution, they use too many technical words and do not explain it clearly so that users can handle their problem. They unilaterally stopped sending emails without giving any prior notice or warning, I want to stop using the service and want a refund because I subscribed to the pro version for 1 month, but They let me use it for 10 days and stopped my service, asking for a refund which they ignored.

Hello there, Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you've experienced. We understand how important reliable service is and regret any disruption this has caused. Your account was temporarily suspended as a precautionary measure because one of your sender domains was listed on Spamhaus. This listing may be due to a poor sending reputation or potential hijacking by cybercriminals. Omnisend took this step to protect the overall reputation and ensure that the service quality for all our clients remains unaffected. Our team has reached out to you with detailed steps to follow to get your domain delisted. We kindly ask you to try the suggested solution. If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach back via the initial email. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to resolve this issue and restore your account.
