Anthropics Technology Avaliações 13

This company does not respect its customers, so take care. Everything will work fine until you get an issue. They fully depend on AI to an extent that their robots upgraded me automatically from Pro to Max two times then disabled my account! Their support is only a bot which is useless and you literally hit the wall! They said we will route you to a human that never happens for almost 2 weeks! Very bad customer care experience.

⭐ (1/5) - Billing fraud and zero support

I was charged $200 for a product called "Gift Max 20X" that I never ordered. My only subscription is Claude Pro at $20/month.

After 3 days of contacting support, I only dealt with a bot going in circles. No human agent, no refund, no real explanation.

Anthropicconfirmed the charges were unauthorized but still couldn't process a refund. I had to file a chargeback with my bank to recover my own money.

Complete lack of accountability. I'm canceling my subscription and moving to a competitor. Avoid if you value your money and your time.

Absolutely Criminal!

32% of my session tokens and 2% of my weekly allowances used saying to Claude "Are you ready to work now?"

Anthropic has gone form being market leaders with Opus to being nothing short of a bait and switch SCAM operation that I am reporting to trading standards! This insane token usage renders Claude unusable for nay pourposes at all! Anthropic needs to be taken down and banned form trading! SCAM AI company!

Hi,

I'm writing with a tip about a situation involving Anthropic that I believe may be worth reporting. The short version: Anthropic's own backend bug caused a chain of events that led to my account being suspended — and after 9 days, the account remains inaccessible despite Anthropic confirming in writing both the bug and the subscription restoration.

I have documentation for every step.

────────────────────────────────
WHAT HAPPENED
────────────────────────────────

April 10 — I redeemed an official Claude Max 20x gift
card ($200/month plan, 100% covered). Anthropic issued
a receipt confirming the subscription through May 10.
(Invoice SSXODILM-0001)

April 12 — A backend bug in Anthropic's system
incorrectly downgraded my subscription two days after
activation, instead of maintaining the Max 20x tier.
I lost access to the plan I had paid for.

April 15 — After days of no response from support,
I attempted to restore access by adding a credit card.
The card lacked sufficient funds; the charge failed.
This triggered Anthropic's automated risk system and
my account was suspended.

April 16 — Anthropic sent me a written email
confirming two things:
1. The gift card subscription has been restored
2. The cause was a backend system bug on their end

April 19 — My account is still suspended. The
subscription is confirmed as valid and restored.
The account is still locked. I cannot access the
service at all. Nine days of a 30-day paid
subscription have been lost.

────────────────────────────────
WHY THIS IS A STORY
────────────────────────────────

This case raises several questions that may be of
broader public interest:

1. ANTHROPIC CONFIRMED THE BUG IN WRITING —
YET THE ACCOUNT REMAINS SUSPENDED
Anthropic's own April 16 email acknowledges the
bug and confirms the subscription is restored.
Despite this, the account suspension — which
exists solely because I responded to their bug —
has not been lifted. Anthropic has effectively
acknowledged fault while allowing the consequences
of that fault to remain in place.

2. A PAYING CUSTOMER SUSPENDED FOR RESPONDING
TO ANTHROPIC'S OWN ERROR
The failed credit card charge that triggered the
suspension only happened because Anthropic's bug
incorrectly downgraded my subscription. Without
the bug, there would have been no downgrade, no
credit card attempt, and no suspension. The
automated risk system penalized a customer for
reacting to a platform failure.

3. COMPLETE BREAKDOWN IN SUPPORT RESPONSIVENESS
Despite multiple support tickets, formal appeals,
a BBB complaint, and an FTC complaint, I have
received no substantive resolution in 9 days.
Anthropic's support infrastructure appears unable
to coordinate between the team that restored the
subscription and the team responsible for lifting
the account suspension.

4. GIFT CARD SUBSCRIBERS MAY BE SYSTEMATICALLY
AFFECTED
Anthropic has been distributing Claude Max gift
cards as promotional items. If the bug that
affected my account is not isolated, other gift
card recipients may be experiencing similar
downgrades without knowing the cause or how
to escalate effectively.

lamentablemente recibí una tarjeta de regalo para usar Claude pro por 6 meses solo la use un mes , y ahora estoy en plan gratuito , escribí para pedir ayuda y me dicen que verifique que este usando la cuenta o email correcto , solo tengo un email hice lo que me dijeron y no funciona , pedí que por favor me dijeran en que cuenta se canjeó la tarjeta de regalo y dicen que no pueden verlo , incluso si me la robaron no saben , no responde , que se perdió y ya , y no puede usarla pero si le cobraron a mi amigo ...es lamentable que la IA no tenga una solución para ayudarme a recuperar mi tarjeta de regalo es injusto y no puedo hablar con alguien solo un robot . ..pésimo servicio de atención al cliente y lastima por que me gusta . pero parece que solo les interesa la plata pero no ayudar a sus clientes

⭐ 1/5 — Overpriced hallucination machine. Do NOT buy the $100 plan.

Claude hallucinates, fabricates facts, and confidently delivers wrong answers like it's a feature. The marketing promises world-class AI. The reality is a delusional, unreliable bot that makes things up and calls it intelligence.

When I asked for a refund, they deployed another AI bot to deny me — 5 times — with the same copy-pasted ToS. No human. No accountability. No shame.

They take $100, deliver garbage, then hide behind fine print. Classic bait and switch.

Now I'm doing a chargeback. That's all they deserve.

Avoid at all costs.

Appalling Customer Service - Condescending, Unhelpful, and a Complete Waste of Time

Where do I even start with this disaster?
I contacted Anthropic on December 4th about a simple issue: I'm an experienced app developer who's built multiple applications and needed API access. I added credits to what I thought was the right place, only to discover their system is needlessly complicated with two completely separate platforms that they do absolutely NOTHING to distinguish clearly.
After waiting OVER A WEEK for a response (8+ days - apparently they're "working hard to restore typical response times" which must mean they're normally even worse), I finally heard back from Sofia. And what a treat that was.
The email was patronizing, condescending, and spoke to me like I'm a complete idiot who's never seen a computer before. She explained the difference between consumer products and developer APIs as if I'm some amateur who stumbled onto the internet yesterday. I'VE BUILT APPS. I'VE WORKED WITH GOOGLE CLOUD AND COUNTLESS OTHER APIs. I know what an API is, Sofia.
The problem isn't my understanding - it's your TERRIBLE system design. Every other API service on the planet makes it crystal clear where to sign up and purchase credits. AWS? Clear. Google Cloud? Clear. Microsoft Azure? Clear. Anthropic? An absolute confusing mess with two separate systems and zero guidance.
Now I'm stuck with credits on Claude AI that are completely useless for what I actually need, they're "non-refundable" (of course they are), and Sofia's brilliant solution? Go buy MORE credits on the other platform. So I'm supposed to just eat the cost of their confusion and pay TWICE? Absolutely not.
Zero flexibility. Zero accountability for their poor UX. Zero attempt to actually help a customer. Just a robotic copy-paste of their refund policy and a condescending lecture I didn't need or ask for.
To make matters worse, they made me wait over a week just to insult my intelligence and tell me tough luck. That's not customer service - that's a joke.
If you're a developer considering Anthropic's API, be warned: their system is confusing, their support is slow and unhelpful, and if you make a mistake navigating their poorly designed platform, you're on your own. Save yourself the headache and the money.
Absolutely appalling experience from start to finish.

Unfortunately, my company was defrauded by Anthropics Software. I purchased an update for a program I purchased several years earlier. The company doesn't have my email address, so they refused to update me. Even though I purchased a legitimate version of the program, no one is responding to my emails, and I have neither the update nor the money I paid for the update.

We purchased this software with the hope of improving our workflow, but instead it has caused major delays and stress. After activating it, we couldn’t even use it without waiting hours for support to fix access issues. When it finally worked for a short time, our access was blocked again — right in the middle of our production schedule.
We repeatedly had to contact support just to receive a token so we could continue working. This back-and-forth has caused huge gaps in our production timeline and completely removed the reliability we expected when we paid for this product. Instead of helping our studio, it disrupted our work.
A product is only as good as its accessibility — and if you can’t use it when you need it, what’s the point? Very disappointing experience so far.

Abzocke, kein Support. Nach Rechnerwechsel verfällt die Lizenz. Es gibt keine Möglichkeit, den alten Rechner zu deaktivieren und die Lizenz auf den neuen Rechner zu migrieren.
Es gibt keine direkte Kontaktmöglichkeit per eMail über die Website. Erst nach erfolgreicher Registrierung wäre eine direkte Kontaktaufnahme möglich, nur: es kommt nie eine Mail mit einem Bestätigungslink. Somit ist eine Reklamation auch gar nicht erst möglich. Die Software scheint mir im Vergleich zu anderen Anbietern stehengeblieben.

⚠️ Warning to Potential Buyers – Be VERY Careful Before Relying on PortraitPro!
I’ve used PortraitPro for a while and while the software itself has great editing features, the customer service and technical reliability are an absolute nightmare – especially if you work on tight deadlines or in professional environments.

Every time macOS updates (which is often), the PortraitPro app stops working. It won’t launch until you get a manual reset from their customer support – and here's the real issue: support is extremely slow and unreliable.

Sometimes it takes a full day or more to hear back from anyone – during which time you literally can't access the software at all. For a professional working with clients and deadlines, this is unacceptable. I’ve had project delays and difficult conversations with clients just because PortraitPro was “waiting on support to unlock my license again.”

Even worse, when I contacted customer service for help, their response was incredibly disappointing:

“Buy the new version.”
That’s it. No fix, no proper patch for the version I already paid for, no effort to support loyal customers — just a push to buy another upgrade.
This kind of response makes it feel like they're deliberately ignoring past versions to force users into unnecessary upgrades. It’s incredibly frustrating and leaves a bad taste.

This issue has happened multiple times, and there seems to be no fix in sight. Instead of improving their system or adding live support or auto-resets, they just leave users stuck, hoping someone replies to an email.

If you’re a casual user, maybe you can afford to wait. But if you’re a working photographer or editor – think twice before relying on PortraitPro.

It’s software that only works when it feels like it, and the company leaves you hanging when you need help the most.

I’m very disappointed and frustrated. I’ve paid for this software and yet I feel completely unsupported.

Disappointed.
I purchased PortraitPro with a valid license, but after a macOS update the software stopped working. The company refuses to provide a free update or patch—only a discount on a new version, or the suggestion to downgrade my OS or switch back to Windows. This is unacceptable, especially since the issue stems from their software’s incompatibility. I do not recommend.

Potrait PROFESSINAL:INSTALLATION sehr sehr schwierig Hilfe vom Support keine . 30 tägigeRückgabe wie angegeben nicht erfolgt. potrait PROFESSIONAL KOMMT BEI MIR NICHT MEHR AUF DEN RECHNER: Besonders negativund unpressionell für mich war eine Frau Erika vom Support.
Nachtrag: WER auf die 30tägige rückgabegaratie hofftwird hart enttäuscht sein,sie werden vergeblich warten.das war der schlechteste Support den ich je erlebt habe.Nach 2 Wochen hat sich dann doch noch ein Support-Mitarbeiter gefunden der den Knoten lösen konnte und seiner Aufgabe gewachsen war. die Aktivierung des Upgrads/Programms halte ich aber trotzdem für sehr schwierig und verbesserungsbedürftig
