"Don't trust this company " Edited 2025-10-16
Pros: Nothing. The translation they did was completely not correct. They asked to pay $4, then steal my data and opened account without asking me.
Cons: They deceitfully steal your data and open a subscription you don’t even know about.
Overall: Then they withdraw money from your account without your knowledge. Never pay for anything on this website!

"SCAMMERS. AVOID THEM!!" Posted 2025-10-14
Pros: Nothing, they stole money from me and refused to pay it back. I would recommend to report this company to the authorities.
Cons: They are literally criminals, they trick you into a cheap 1-2 dollar plan then bill you 50 USD a month with claim of some small print you agreed to. Then they refuse to refund the money they stole from you.
Overall: Report this company to the authorities, they bill you 50 USD a month without telling you, then refuse to refund you. Con artists at the finest

"BEWARE !! " Edited 2025-07-23
Pros: It did translate my 1 page paper, so that was ok.
Other then that I realy have nothing positive to say about them.Cons: I signed up for the "free" account, which I used once, but they charge you if you need to print anything. It was a small amount so I was ok with it. I canceled the account within the 14 day trial period to avoid their automatic renewal ! However as soon as I cancelled I received 2 emails, 1 that my account was canceled and another to thank me for purchasing a subscription for $ 47.95 US
( $ 65+ CND ! ) and for a successful processed payment of $ 18.95 US ! ?!
I called customer service and was told I canceled the account but then apparently signed up again a second late, and was told they had proof of me doing this !! I am working with my cc company to block any payments and get my money back.
Important to note is that you have no access at all to your cc details on your account, no option to erase it !! Very, very sketchy !!Overall: Started out ok.

Bur after canceling and talking to their customer team and getting sketchy explanations as to why this happened and why I cant see my own cc on my own account it seemed their main objective is to get your money. -

"Be wary of $2 scam" Edited 2025-07-24
Pros: Nothing. It was something that could be done with in built programs on Mac or PC. Do not use this product.
Cons: They auto renew your subscription without any clear information. So you sign up to complete a singular PDF task for $2 and they will sneakily then role your subscription over @$49.95 per month.
Overall: Terrible scammy company do not use. They sign you up with a one off offer of $2 and then sneakily sign you up to $49.95 per month without any clear information about this.

Update: I made a dispute with PayPal over this and immediately PDFSimpli emailed me saying that would refund me in full if I ended the dispute with PayPal. I did and then they sent an email refusing to refund me. F*ck this company. I’ll be making this a legislative issue now. -

"My thoughts on PDFSimpli" Posted 2025-07-03
Pros: Their service is good, but proofofstatement AI's attention to detail in bank statements made it our top choice."
The other platform was easy to use, but proofofstatement AI's bank statements are more comprehensive and accurate.Cons: but we chose proofofstatement AI for bank statements due to their precision and reliability which PDFSimpli do not have
Overall: They are doing well, Their service is good, i can personally recommend them for special uses.

"Grifters Working the Paypal System AVOID!!!!" Posted 2025-06-27
Pros: The Software worked fine and absolutely did what I needed however the rub and kick in the proverbials comes a few weeks later when they extract you hard earned money!
Cons: The Shady Auto Renew Subscription, they will take the money and not honour their 30 day cooling off period. They Lied to Paypal when I raised the dispute to get the case closed. I've spent hours bouncing between their support team and Paypal an neither are accepting responsibility (because guess what, they both get paid regardless) These are straight up grifters using a very useful and well designed website they probably bought from someone else.
Overall: Appalling, this is a straight up money trap website. They may have bought the software and website from another company, but are using it to illegally scam users out of recurring subscription fees. They are sophisticated and know who to work the Paypal resolution system to their advantage.Please avoid at all costs.

"They try to subscribe me for year when I wanted for 2 weeks" Posted 2025-06-15
Pros: It works good with pdf. Document was ready for download but then they wrote that i need to pay for downloading document. Question: why do you write that it is FREE online editor?
Cons: It was written that I payment is just for 2 weeks, but in reality they wanted to save my card and use it for subscription. Bank declined operation
Overall: They are scammers. I don't recommend getting involved. I will try to use another application. Thanks to my bank

"Debit not authorized or ordered by " Posted 2025-05-07
Pros: Good service, i use it once and pay around $2 and got my pdf as ordered but automatic unauthorized withdrawn
Cons: Be very wary of this service. I paid around $ 2 for a one-time service to fill out a PDF file.
Overall: However, money started being automatically withdrawn from my Visa card account for a subscription I never agreed to. I only intended to use the service once

"Be very careful with this service." Posted 2025-04-09
Pros: N/A.
Cons: Be very careful with this service.
I filled out one PDF file and paid honestly for a one-time service, which cost around €2. After that, money started being automatically withdrawn from my PayPal account for a subscription. I never agreed to any subscription — only to a single-use service.Overall: There is probably some fine print somewhere, as shady companies often do. Even if what they’re doing is technically legal, it feels very dishonest and sneaky.

"Not business friendly" Posted 2025-04-01
Pros: This service was useless to my needs and no better than PDF Pro.Plus their business practice of refunds should be negotiable.
Cons: The service is no better than PDF Pro. The cost of $49.95/month is a rip off.
Overall: I was not aware of the service being added to my business by a former employee, and when I asked for a courtesy refund for the three months charged, I was immediately denied. I understand their refund rule, but certain circumstances should be an exception.

Overall: They stole €39.95 from me every 4 weeks for a year, without using the software at all. TOTAL Amount 479€

"NOT FREE!" Posted 2025-01-17
Pros: None - just a basic app.
Cons: Tricks you into saying you do not have to make an account and after you edit your document it makes you do an account and you have to pay so you can download your document.
Overall: Did not like it.

"Make sure you look at the fine-print" Posted 2024-12-02
Pros: Basic functional program, but nothing to set it apart from the competition. I had to complete a simple task and the program got that done
Cons: I needed to work on ONE PDF document. I did what I needed to do and paid my $2 and thought my experience was done. However, I started getting charged a $39/month subscription fee that I most certainly did NOT want and did NOT think I was signed up for
Overall: Their customer service was not helpful at all. I ended-up paying $400 for a $2 PDF (granted, I should have caught the monthly charges sooner, but I didn't think I was signed up for anything). Near as I can tell, this is their business model... Provide a $2 service and then start charging for a subscription that nobody wanted

"Scammers " Posted 2024-12-01
Pros: No pros. I tried to convert a manual to a pdf document. All my efforts were met with “file too big” or something to that effect. I abandoned all efforts. Two weeks later they scammed $59 off me
Cons: Took $59 out of my PayPal account without authorization. I never signed up for any subscription service. As a principal, I never do. Now I have problems getting my money back. Many others suffer are in the same boat. Their service also failed to convert my document even after I paid for it.
Overall: Difficult to use. Constantly got messages “file to big” or something similar. After hours of trying, my manual failed to upload and convert.

"Horrible experience" Posted 2024-10-22
Pros: It was easy to download. There really are not any more positive things to say about this product. Wish there was
Cons: It was glitchy, Wayyyyyy too expensive ! Does NOT give you options for different highlighter color which is CRAZY for the price of $49 per month.
Overall: Horrible. I feel like I was scammed for $49. I would not recommend this product to anyone. Not easy to use either

"£49.00 charge - not happy. " Posted 2024-10-20
Pros: you can edit pdfs which is what i needed so it did the job..... BUT its not worth £49.00 being stolen from your account under the guise of small print.
Cons: being charged £49.00 after paying £1.99, not obvious that I was going to be charged £49.00
Overall: dishonest company. I would never continue with a company that used dishonest tactics to get money out from me. As far as I can say, that will be the last money they see from me again.

"Beware of the Con" Posted 2024-09-27
Pros: Easy to use. But beware.....the fine print which they very purposely made fine print to "disclose" and yet conceal, is what makes this a crappy deal. If they could just run an honest business!
Cons: If you aren't careful they will SOAK you with a recurring "subscription" for ~$39 USD.
You MUST affirmatively communicate with them to cancel. Otherwise they deem that as permission to charge you $39 per renewal period without any further notice.
Their website is designed to downplay that fact and make it seem you are able to do what they highlight (one trial use for $1 or $2).Overall: A good pdf editing platform is completely marred by what can only see as dishonest and misleading info.

"Scam Alert" Edited 2024-08-29
Pros: Nothing. They are scammers who are going to steal your money. They advertise as free service, then charge for their service. Finally, charge every month without your consent.
Cons: They are scammers. Unauthorized charges which they refuse to refund.
Overall: On August 4 2024 their site popped up to me as a free pdf service. Nevertheless, to edit some files and download them I had to create a free account and pay 1,45 euros which I paid.
Read More...
2 weeks later I received a PayPal charge for an automatic payment of 39,95 euros. I found out that if I hadn't discovered it early and canceled I would be charged every month.
On their Facebook page there are numerous complaints by other deceived victims with a similar experience.
I emailed them and they refused to refund me because I closed my account. I hope I don't get any other surprises from them.
Stay away from them if you don't want to lose your money.
It isn't only about the 39,95 euros that I lost. It's because of their unethical, unprofessional tactics. How do they sleep at night knowing that they feed their kids with money they have stolen from other families?

"Inappropriate Customer Service " Posted 2024-08-21
Pros: I got my intended work done which was short, brief, and 3 pages. Easily converted to Word. I would have stayed with them if it wasn’t for the extremely poor, disrespectful, and rude customer service.
Cons: Rep was rude, loud and aggressive in voice on the phone. Hung up on me as a full paying customer. Inexcusable. Never hang up on a customer, pass the call to a supervisor. But hanging up on the customer was the only childish way he knew how to handle the conversation.
Overall: Try UDPF.com and see a comparison of services. PDF Simpli is not as accommodating as they want the public to believe. But it is serviceable.

"Scam " Posted 2024-08-17
Pros: None I can think of. I did not use its service at all. This is a shame they charge me 40 dollars without my permission.
Cons: Charge me $40 after a month without my authorization. This is disgusting and a scam. Try to call them but no one answered my phone call.
Overall: It is unethical business. How could you charge customers money without permission? I’m going to file a claim!
