EverandReviews of everand.com

Up until just recently Everand was an amazing app that allowed you to pay one monthly fee and have access to tons of books (e-books and audio books) all for one monthly fee. You had the ability to read several books, or if you are like me 10+ books at a time while still paying one monthly fee. Instead of simply raising their price the company decided to jump into the pool with all of the other disgusting companies out there who care only about their bottom line and not their customers by entirely changing their subscription plans. Now you can choose one book for $11.99/month or 3 books for $16.99/month to unlock and that's it. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. SAVE UP FOR THE BOOKS YOU WANT AND BUY THEM OUTRIGHT SO AT LEAST YOU WILL OWN THEM FOR JUST SLIGHTLY MORE THAN WHAT THIS COMPANY WANTS TO CHARGE YOU TO RENT THEM WHILE YOU CONTINUE TO PAY THEM ASTRONOMICAL FEES FOR BASICALLY NOTHING. I HAVE BEEN USING THEM FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS AND WOULD HATE FOR ANYONE TO WASTE THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY FOR A GREEDY CORPORATE SHAM OF A SERVICE. I rarely leave reviews so this should tell you how disgusted and outraged I am by this company. Like I said save your money and buy your books, you will save yourself tons of money and have something to show for it in the end instead of just an empty wallet and a cancelled subscription.

I've been a subscriber to EverAnd for about six years. I've used their referral program to earn over 18 months free during that time. I have recommended this app (then Scribd) to nearly everyone I know and many, many people I do not know (on-line). I had my moments of frustration over the years. I read a lot of fantasy, and, occasionally (and without any written/specific "terms") I would be suddenly limited, usually late in the month, to anything BUT fantasy. Customer Service advised me I'd exceeded my allowed number of a specific genre. OK, fine. And, of course, Audible Exclusives will NEVER be found here. But, by and large, I've loved using this site/app. I've listened nearly every day for years! Enter the New & Improved "Expanded" library - which is NOT an expanded library AT ALL. Now the thousands of titles I *could have* listened to a couple of weeks ago, as part of my standard subscription are LOCKED. My standard subscription allows me to "unlock" (BORROW) one book per month. An Upgraded Subscription allows one to "unlock" (BORROW) three titles ... but you are BORROWING the books (you do not own them, as you would with Audible) AND your "unlocks" (CREDITS) DO NOT CARRY OVER TO THE NEXT MONTH. Oh, yeah, and, of course, you STILL do not (will NEVER) have access to Audible Exclusives. This is a no-brainer to me. I'm taking my money back to Audible. It's no longer even CLOSE to worth it to keep my money with EverAnd.

This is a poorly designed and somewhat confusing site with new and even more confusing changes. I have had difficulty adding and deleting both audio books and ebooks. There must be a better designed site than Everand. I will definitely not renew. I wish I’d read reviews before I subscribed.

After reading all these bad reviews I don’t want to subscribe to Everand anymore….

This change was done in a very deceptive way. They basically lied.

I paid for a year's subscription with unlimited access. I got -- three months. I asked for a refund on the balance of my unlimited subscription. Everand refused because, they said, I had read some "premium" books. If that doesn't make sense to anyone, it makes even less sense to me. Although I subscribed to Everand and Scribd for years, I am done.

I signed for a trial and the app assured me that I’d be notified three days before he trial period ends. I used the service for about one hour, It wasn’t for me. Never received any notification and was charged for a month. Contacted the company, no reply. Terrible customer service and company

I have been a subscriber since the days when Everand was still Scribd. Back then, the service was extraordinary—a treasure trove of both ebooks and audiobooks. But now, they've cast aside their loyal subscribers, offering nothing that even resembles the quality expected in today’s digital marketplace. Their current model doles out pitiful access for a steep monthly fee, without even the courtesy of letting you keep the titles—unlike Audible. This so-called ‘service’ isn’t worth a fleeting thought, let alone a second look. Their free trial? A cunning trap. And if you’re foolish enough to subscribe, prepare yourself for a customer service experience so dismissive that any hopes you had will be shattered at your first request. Steer clear and consider yourself fortunate if you’ve managed to avoid them altogether! Be ye not deceived with the single star rating, it is not even worth that. Had I the opportunity for no stars, that would be their proportionally meritorious reward.
