Simple IT Support

I was asking simple, basic questions to get quick answers. The customer agent responded quickly to my questions. Hence, I have qiven 5 star rating.

Future testing will give me over time how well they do compared to me asking Ai to solve issues.

Beware - can’t cancel payments

Update - refunded him his subscription now (as credits paid to his account) but I will leave this review until I have had confirmation that any subscription has been cancelled and his personal and payment details deleted.

I have just come across this company as they have been taking money from my father’s account and he has not knowingly instructed them to do so. I contacted them after last payment and got an automated response to say subscription has been cancelled but it has not. They are obviously preying on vulnerable customers.

A good girl guide in an unfriendly world.

Tracy guided me through the thoroughly unsatisfactory John Lewis website, they will do anything to prevent your speaking to a human being. She was on the ball and speedy with it.
I now feel much better even if it all comes to nought.

Fast solution that actually works

I didn’t expect online support to be this effective. I described my issue in just a few sentences, without going into technical details, and the expert immediately understood what was wrong. The response felt thoughtful, not automated. The solution worked on the very first try, and I didn’t have to go back and forth or ask follow-up questions. That level of accuracy really impressed me.

WTF
(PRIMA CHE MI DICIATE CHE LE INFO ERANO SCRITTE E LE HO ACCETTATE: IO NON HO MAI ACCETTATO NULLA, MI SONO TROVATA A CHATTARE CON TOM E L'ALTRO LLM CHE PROBABILMENTE SCRIVE ANCHE LE RECENSIONI CHE HO VISTO QUI, PAGLIACCI)
I ended up on this site without knowing what it was and without ever asking or looking for it. I was looking for a solution regarding an order on the SHEIN website, which after several attempts sent me to a page where I was asked for ONE EURO (refundable according to them) to be helped by an expert (NOT A CHATBOT, A REAL PERSON). Forced to compromise and pay that euro, having no other option if I wanted to receive the Shein package, I agreed. I found myself chatting with the artificial intelligence that insisted on calling itself a real expert, not a bot, and within a minute I received a notification from my bank: THIRTY-NINE EUROS DEDUCTIBLE FROM ACCOUNT. Without any request and therefore no consent from me. Then... pay for what? I have ChatGPT for free on my phone, and these scams are punishable by law even if you're based in Cyprus. I'M WRITING HERE BECAUSE I CAN'T CONTACT ANYONE REALLY, AND I DON'T TRUST A CHATBOT THAT TELL ME THEY'VE SENT ME A REFUND. Should I ask God directly how to talk to a howly human?
HOWLYSHIT.
If someone can send me an email where I can ask for help from a real expert, now that I've had a month's subscription to this nonsense.

Enter the How;y website at your peril

Enter the How;y website at your peril! My experience is as follows: I inquired about one UK tel nbr (john Lewis). I was charged £1 by PayPay/Howly which I thought was reasonable. Fortunately i checked my bank account and found Howly had also chsrged me £24 had set up a direct debit for £24 per month (repeat: per month!). I managed to cancel the direct debit and requested they refund me £24. Howly refunded me the £1 only. PayPal weren't interested my claim and upheld the payment so Howly refused the refund. My bank (Lloyd's) also not interested.
Naturally I will never use PayPal nor How;y again and Lloyd's is my list to change banks immediately they close our local branch.
I'm angry with myself for being so easily duped by scam artists Howly but take it as a lesson learned. Thankfully I only got scammed for £24 and was quick enough to cancel the direct debit which they set up without my knowledge. I understand Howly is based in Cyprus so out of reach for me to knock on their door.
You've been warned.

Howly is a FRAUD

Howly is a FRAUD! They say they will provide contact information for another company for just $1. Then they charge $38 for their monthly fee without notifying you before doing so. They did not provide what I requested, but charged me $39 and would not refund the amount when I contacted them the same day. AVOID, these people are crooks.
