AskNow
reviews and complaints

Last week I was in touch with 'Ask Now' to find out how I get Microsoft desk Publishing. The man was pleasant and told me how to get it free. This cost me $31.00. This cost was for the question and one week free trial. I've never been able to download it, so the money was wasted, but that's my fault. They said if I didn't cancel before June 13th, I would be charged $30/00 per month for their service. I'm a senior with no income, so I WANT TO CANCEL before they charge me anymore, especially since the first $31.00 was a waste. The TOLL FREE number they supply [protected] does NOT work from Canada, so this is the only way I know HOW to get in touch with them. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY MORE CHARGES FROM THEM.
Would you please be kind enough to reply to this email. Thank you.
