This Company should be investigated by a regulatory Authority as the practice being carried out may be considered criminal.
I will look into the regulating authority to start a complaint.
Three times I contacted them, three times they promised that it was alright now, and still I get an invoice! They say, there were technical problems: would you trust a company that is based on IT, who has continued technical problems? You should not! Thankfully, they deactivated the automatic payment option, but who knows if they do not restart that again!
Should have been suspicious and checked out their cancellation policy - same as with their fee schedule, this is not available. Makes you wonder. Anyway, if you don't have to get an account with them, don't!
One star because I cannot give zero stars and submit a review!
Paid $209 for an Advantage LT membership (as finally invoiced after all the debate), only to have them automatically charge my credit card (which they keep on file, and you cannot delete it or change it to not autopay) another $727.27 a month later!
The invoice has a link for the “membership billing page” which only brings you to your network. In fact, there is not anywhere on their website that you can see your charges/billing. Customer service confirmed this as well.
When I had received the invoiced originally for the $727, I called in to dispute it, prior to my card even being charged. I learned that they had to take my card off at that time and told them to do so. They charged may card anyway a week later.
I was finally (after 13 phone calls) able to get routed to a rep who seemed like they were going to be able to help me. She tells me that the $727 was charged based on Amazon additional requirements based on our pre-qualification submittal, but I am not able to verify this in our profile or theirs. I have been trying to get a refund of this charge for 3 months and the person who was helping me has now ghosted me.
If you have a client that wants you to be prequalified using Avetta, please consider carefully whether that customer will give you the amount of business it will take to offset the costs (The first invoice they sent was over $2,500 for a Premier Membership). It also takes hours to complete all the forms that are required for the prequalification.
After all that, we find that we don’t actually meet one of the criteria (no list of criteria minimums anywhere on their site, even after paying for the membership) and probably won’t be awarded any contracts anyway!
This company is dangerously close to illegal business practices if you ask me!

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and consider this complaint resolved. It is unfortunate that Avetta could not credit my account and resolve this when requested to do so over a month ago. The need to include the Revdex.com to resolve a simple transaction is unfortunate. Avetta says there is an assigned customer service rep, but there is none. Messages are sent from "[email protected]" or "[email protected]" and there is no convenient means to reach anyone to address problems or follow up on issues.
Regards,

I just spoke with [redacted] (Complaint # [redacted]) and offered him a full refund per their request. I have attached a communication that I sent as well to [redacted]. I advised them that it would take 6-8 weeks for their check to be cut but we would start the process immediately.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me. I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.

through online click through agreement by customer's admitted employee, Erin Rosso, on February 5th, 2013.Notification of service membership increase was sent out in November 5th, 2013. Had the customer contacted us within 30 days of the charge date of 3/17/2014, PICS would have granted an exception to terms of contractor agreement and issue a refund due to employee turnover less a nominal fee. This complaint was filed in February of 2015... 11 months into their 12 month subscription. Benefits of active subscription received and untimely response to matter leaves PICS no choice but to deny the refund. PICS can not expect to be held liable for customer's turnover and associated responsibility shift. Customer has not contacted PICS to date with complaint.
