#accidentally renewing a subscription is a problem

So apparently, you can get a refund on app subscriptions on iOS?
It’s unintuitive, but the way you do it is to go to your purchase history, choose the app you accidentally subscribed to, and click “report a problem”. And that’s the tricky part, because if I hadn’t been so upset about a $43 charge on an app I haven’t opened since install, I wouldn’t have tried “report a problem” because it’s not an error? At least not a computer error.
That button then takes you to apple’s website where you can choose an “allowed” reason for wanting your refund, and then it takes 24-48 hours to process.
#ios#iPhone#Apple#apps#what a way to hide an important option#like yeah#accidentally renewing a subscription is a problem#but that’s a me problem#not the type of problem you ‘report’#like a bug or a crash#like I expected#the option for a refund#would be a distinct option#like ‘resend receipt’ is#nope#it’s under ‘report a problem’#how many people were stuck with subscriptions they didn’t want because of that?

All right. I’m still mad. So here it is. The post I rage-wrote (my new favorite term) last night:
I don’t know what Tom King means by “murders that weren’t” but unless it means that no one actually died at Sanctuary and Wally isn’t actually a killer (accidental or otherwise), I’m pulling the fucking trigger on all the things that I’ve though about doing but haven’t because I love comics and I want more.
I won’t buy HiC #9
I’ll drop Flash
I’ll drop Nightwing
I’ll drop Batman
I’ll drop everything Bendis
I won’t buy anything with King’s name on it for a while (unless it’s an Image book)
In fact, I’ll drop pretty much everything. And I buy a lot of fucking books.
I won’t renew my DC Universe subscription.
I will continue with RH because hilariously, even though it’s quality has dropped after Rebirth too, it is still, somehow, one of your better books right now.
I will continue with JL because I will always support the hell out of Scott Snyder. I’ve never seen a more humble, gracious, caring, considerate, understanding creator in my life.
Honestly, DC, what the actual fuck are you thinking? Making Wally a killer? Don’t you know how to read the room? I know you have a disdain for your fans, that you seem to think that anything they like is dumb and if they don’t like something it’s because they ‘don’t get it’ but Christ, man, come on.
Over a year ago at Wonder Con (it may have been Comic Con, they blur together) I sat in a room while a panel of creators asked the audience who their favorite Flash was. Flash War was starting, Heroes In Crisis was coming up, and we’d been hearing worrisome things in regards to Wally, the face of Rebirth. The room full of fans let you know, clearly and unequivocally, what we thought. When half the panel looked surprised that Wally beat Barry by an extremely wide margin, I tried convince myself that you’d listen and course correct.
But you didn’t. You doubled down.
Batman 50 was an appalling manipulation of fans. Truly disgusting. Not on a story level which is the only reason I kept buying the book after that fiasco. If it had been marketed for what is was, just the next issue in the arc, there would have been no problems. But in bad faith, knowing precisely what you were doing, you tricked us.
And then I sat in a room at Comic Con and listen to some of your top people make fun of fans who were upset, as though they were overreacting. As though you didn’t knowingly and maliciously tell everyone that the book was something it wasn’t in one of the lowest corporate cash-grabs I’ve ever seen in my life.
For the love of god, pull your shit together. I don’t want everything to be owned by fucking Disney but you’re starting to make that look like the best bad option.
Off the top of my head:
Fire whoever decided to cancel Super Sons. It had nothing but positive feedback. If its sales were lower than you’d like MARKET IT!
Put the fucking reigns on Bendis or let him walk and free up that capital for hungry new writers who won’t trash good stuff just because they think their idea is better. Why do we need two 17 year old Superboys? Why do we need two Robins? Yeah, yeah, I know ‘there’s a reason, just wait’ and ‘the story is still going’ 🙄 I know I’ve heard that before... *cough* HiC *cough* Batman *cough*. The fact is, you had the first really good Superman stuff in a long ass time and you sacrificed it in favor of big name with just more boring, action-over-storytelling/character plot lines
Hey speaking of dick. No one likes Ric. Literally, not a soul. The longer you keep this shit up the lower Nightwing sales are gonna drop. Everyone still buying the book is only hanging on because we keep thinking this ridiculousness is going to end.
I don’t know if you need new content editors, new top brass, or what (it’s not my job to know), but you keep making the same story/creative mistakes over and over and over again. It’s asinine that you can’t figure this out.
The New Age of Superheroes was a fun idea but it was never going to work out. I saw that. The clerk at my local cbs saw that. You should have seen that.
You know what would be a good idea? Like instant money, so obvious no one can figure out why you haven’t done it yet, kind of good? A fucking Bat-Family book. Give Tomasi and Gleason the core four batboys and let them do a spiritual successor to their Batman and Robin, Superman, and Super Sons books with the extended family and friends popping in and out of issues/arcs. Use Batman sparingly. You don’t even have to create another book. Detective Comics is the perfect place for this. And hey look, Tomasi is already there! (You probably wouldn’t even have to market this but, you know, it couldn’t hurt.)
OWN the crap out of Batman Damned and what Black Label should be like the adults you ostensibly are. You can’t take a few dick jokes? Really? Come on.
Content geared towards adults is a great idea. We’re the ones with the money. But most adults like a variety. I like Archer and TTG. I like Futurama and Justice League Unlimited. You should have left Young Justice alone.
Speaking of Young Justice. A spin off Batfamily should would free up space on YJ and give you a place to go darker, more adult focus if you wanted.
That proposed Superfam cartoon going around that you passed on? Fucking. Make. It.
You have a lot of problems. And pretending your fans don’t know what they’re talking about is only going to do one thing. Keep losing you fans.
#god I'm so fucking pissed about Wally#grrr#scandal's wild rambles#HiC spoilers#heroes in crisis#spoilers#heroes in crisis spoilers#fix dc#in my not so humble opinion

College planner pro app

#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP UPGRADE#
#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP FULL#
#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP PRO#
Many choices are available for repetition (daily, weekly etc) Tasks are then assigned by the user to the ABC system with a numeral following to further clarify the importance of the task. It is easy to use and has a nice interface. Very similar to the Franklin Planner Systemīest productivity/task list program I have found in its price range. In short, I couldn’t imagine this calendar really cutting it for someone with a busy life and complex schedule, but it is fine for every day use just to keep track of your time in general. The whole repeating of tasks and events is just a bit whack, there almost always seems to be some kind of inconvenience about it that makes me end up putting in the events manually for the next several weeks.
#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP PRO#
I bought the pro version to enable recurring tasks, but it is only possible to repeat every day when I wanted to schedule them once a week. Notes are virtually useless unless you open the calendar every day and look for them - otherwise there is no reminder and even in the calendar they are quite small and easy to miss. I think the notes and tasks could have been done better.
#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP FULL#
Don’t spend your money unless you have to because you get basically all of the great features with the free version the biggest difference is that you won’t be prompted to buy full access every time you accidentally flip your phone to landscape.
#COLLEGE PLANNER PRO APP UPGRADE#
The upgrade to pro is really a minimal improvement, but for $5 a year it’s not unreasonable. I don’t have a huge schedule to organize, so this app is enough to meet my needs. If you have any problems or suggestions please send a mail to you’ll get a response in a short time. Please write to us before leaving negative reviews, as we can often help with your problem or help you better use this app. You can turn off auto-renew by going to your account settings after purchase and must be turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period to avoid being billed again. Note: Subscription will be charged to your iTunes account and will auto-renew each year. You can organize events by week view, create projects and recurring tasks, export schedule and ads-free. Full records searching including events, tasks and notes Supports both landscape and portrait modes Day, Week, Month and Tasks modules for better management Manage notes in day, week and month view Sketch directly in notes (for iOS 13 or above) Supports tasks and projects with sub-tasks Also, if you have any other great ideas or suggestions to make this app better please contact us with an email, which will be very appreciate. You’ll find the best way to meet your requirements in our app. Planner Pro provides kinds of settings for different requirements from kinds of people. We combine events, tasks and notes in one place so that you do not need to spend extra money for other apps. Planner Pro, which costs years for designing and coding is now coming out for everybody. Designed for those people who’re looking for a full-featured app to manage daily life better.

5 Tips to Ensure You Get The Best Hosting For Your Website in Pakistan
It is normal for you to have questions such as “What is the best web hosting “ or “What is the fastest web hosting “, and you will often ask, “How do I know that this is the ideal hosting for my site” and what factors should I focus on during the selection?
For developers, bloggers, entrepreneurs, and most website owners on the Internet, the search for the best hosting in pakistan and choosing the most suitable one is a big problem for them.
In fact, there are dozens of factors that you have to focus on while choosing to host your site, and the importance of each of them may differ depending on the requirements of your site and the number of its visits, the software system used, the databases, etc. Today, however, we will give you 5 tips on the most important factors that you should focus on to ensure that you get the best hosting for it.
1. Focus on the cost of the renewal, not just the cost of a first-time reservation
Many hosting companies offer hosting offers that start at $ 0.99 a month when you sign up for the first time only, but if you focus a little, you will find that the cost of renewal when your subscription expires will be doubly. This trick could influence your decision and cause you to rush to complete the purchase.
So don’t be fooled by the extremely low prices you’ll find when purchasing hosting for the first time, and always focus on periodic renewal value and not just on what you pay for the first time.
2. Make sure the hosting plan resources (space, bandwidth, etc.) are appropriate for your site
Some hosting companies separate the hosting plans by specifying only known resources such as: (space, bandwidth, number of databases, and emails) and they do not specify the most influential resources such as: (processor ratio, RAM, number of processes, etc.), which is a good way for a few Clients according to the needs of their sites, but it has proven ineffective with the largest proportion of customers, as the failure to specify the resources of the hosting plan precisely causes many problems, the most important of which is the possibility of depleting the entire server resources through only one site, which affects your site if it is hosted on the same server. For this, it must be completely separated between the site and the other on the shared hosting server by specifying all the resources precisely, and this matter has become easy through the most famous systems, CloudLinux.
Usually, the consumption of known resources such as space and bandwidth is not a big deal, as there are no sites that can consume 1 TB space or 200 TB bandwidth (in shared hosting at least) without needing a special server. Therefore, most of the global hosts have become to provide these known resources in an unlimited way (unlimited space, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited databases, unlimited email) and only determine the most influential resources such as (RAM, processor, number of processes, etc.) To separate the plans, in order to ensure that no site on the server violates the rights of the other site, as each site works in isolation without consuming any more resources than are specified for it.
3. Don’t just look at the price without looking at the other features as well
Most of the “Arab ones in particular” go to the lowest-priced hosting service providers without carefully looking at the hosting features and knowing whether or not they meet the requirements of their sites, and this is why most customers face problems with hosting companies.
You can always get the best hosting for your website by searching for the hosting that best suits your site requirements. For example: You might find a company that offers unlimited hosting, but that’s not all your site needs, you may need to get unlimited bandwidth and high data security, and the space on an SSD might as well.
So you have to look at the features carefully and choose what matches the needs and requirements of your site first before you look at the price. And do not worry in all cases, as companies that provide high-quality hosting services will find that their prices are close and there is no such wide difference between them and their counterparts.
4. Test the presence of the team yourself to see the average response speed
You will find that most hosting companies provide 24-hour technical support. But will you receive a response to your message or technical support ticket in a few minutes? This feature is difficult to find in most hosting companies.
What if you have questions that you would like answered before purchasing? Or do you already have a host and have a question about your hosting? You definitely won’t wait 24 hours for a response, or even several hours!
So you should test the response speed yourself and send a test message to see when you will receive a response and to be able to rate the company on the speed of response and presence.
5. Nothing is more important than securing and backing up your site data
What if your site crashes due to accidentally deleting a file? Or have you been pirated and your login data has been stolen and its files have been tampered with? Or even there was a problem with the hard disk of the server hosting your site? All these problems can happen to any hosting company in the world. There is no doubt that you will then need a backup copy of your site to restore the files or the database.

10+ Best WordPress Hosting Providers of 2021 Compared & Tested
Here’s a complete, in-depth look at the hosting market in the WordPress space. These are the top 10+ best WordPress hosting services in 2021.
1. SiteGround
Best overall WordPress host ($6.99/mo)
No list of best WordPress hosting could be complete without SiteGround playing a prominent role. The company has been making a name for themselves in the WordPress community for a while now. And not without a reason. Their hosting platform is strong when it comes to for-WordPress optimized servers, plus they offer managed WordPress hosting at price points that are unheard of (read: you won’t find a cheaper managed host of the same quality anywhere else).
What’s also worth pointing out is that SiteGround is one of the few officially recommended hosts by WordPress.org.
For the tests, we went for the StartUp package. Although for a generally more WordPress-optimized package, we’d recommend the GrowBig or GoGeek plan. They are a tad more expensive, but come with additional perks such as advanced caching (custom-built by SiteGround), staging, premium wildcard SSL certificates, and free PCI compliance – should you want to run an e-commerce store.
WordPress installation
Getting WordPress up and running with the built-in installer took just a few clicks. There really isn’t anything more to say here … the installation process really was as seamless as possible.
During this setup process, you also get to choose your server location. There are five data centers available – in USA, Asia and Europe.
Customer support
SiteGround offers what they call “unmatched” support (via chat, phone, tickets, social media), and it’s hard to argue with that, honestly. Apart from being able to access your account and fix any issues, the support agents are also knowledgeable about WordPress and WordPress hosting, and can help you out with a range of other issues that might not be strictly hosting-related.
In our little test, the SiteGround customer support was able to help us get a temporary URL working quickly and efficiently.
Special mention has to go out to the slickness of their customer support software and the extra mile the staff were prepared to go in offering detailed account advice and providing screenshots. (This makes it a great HostGator alternative, for instance, if you want a more refined support environment.)
Cost / mo. (12 months) $6.99
Cost / mo. (24 months) $9.99
Cost / mo. (36 months) $10.49
Cost month-to-month $19.99
Websites 1
Space 10GB
Bandwidth 10,000 visits
Free domains –
Free WP installation, migration, autoupdates, free SSL and CDN, daily backups, free email
Online reputation according to our hosting survey
o Rated 8.38/10 overall by survey respondents (top-rated company)
o Used by 4.83% of survey respondents
o No.2 most popular host in the UK
o The most popular host in Spain
o 93% of users will extend their hosting subscription when it’s up for renewal
2. Flywheel
Great entry-level managed WordPress host ($13/mo)
Flywheel presents a very enticing offer for people who want to get into managed WordPress hosting but also don’t want to spend too much on it.
Feature-wise, there’s nothing missing with Flywheel, and you can expect great performance as well (more on which in a minute). The $13 / month plan allows you to host one WordPress website, and you can handle up to 5,000 visitors monthly (20GB of bandwidth). You also get 5GB of disk space and free site migration. The servers run on Google Cloud Platform.
Focusing on the “managed” features specifically, Flywheel gives you things like daily backups, multisite support, staging (very cool if you want to test new things out before rolling them out to public), SFTP, plus there’s also a free SSL certificate. They also take care of your WordPress updates via the main Flywheel panel rather than letting you tinker with that from the wp-admin.
What’s really impressive is the ease of use of Flywheel’s platform and user panel. Everything is clear, easy to navigate, and you don’t need to be a server pro to perform basic tweaks or configure this or that.
WordPress installation
This literally couldn’t be easier. There are a couple of ways in which you can get WordPress installed. First, you can migrate your existing site from your previous host (for free), you can also create a new site from the Flywheel dashboard in a couple of clicks, or you can use a tool called Local by Flywheel to build a site locally (on your PC or Mac) and then export it to your live Flywheel setup.
Customer support
Live chat is available 24/7. You can also submit support tickets whenever you wish. Since Flywheel allows only WordPress websites, you can expect the support team to know their way around WordPress.
To make things even easier, there’s an extensive knowledge base with lots of helpful articles about their WordPress hosting platform.

Cost month-to-month $15

3. Bluehost
Most cost-effective WordPress hosting ($2.95/mo)
We went for the basic package here. As you can see, a very cheap WordPress hosting option – a shared WordPress hosting plan, to be exact.
One immediate point to note is that Bluehost is the only alternative on the list that doesn’t offer a monthly package. Twelve month commitments are the minimum, though that is offset somewhat by a strong money back guarantee policy that I have personally invoked without issue.
WordPress installation
In addition to the standard cPanel options in place, Bluehost’s one-click WordPress installations are handled by a service called MojoMarketplace.
The MojoMarketplace interface for installing WordPress left a lot to be desired. It was possible to install multiple instances accidentally, and overall feedback on what was happening at any given point was inconsistent and confusing. (For instance, when we look at Bluehost vs SiteGround, the latter gives you WordPress installs in just a few clicks.)
On the plus side, this gave us an instant opportunity to talk to support!
Customer support
Service via chat support was fast and friendly and helped us with clearing up the initial WordPress installation problems and setting up a temporary URL to view our site.

o The most popular host in Canada
o 23.7% of Bluehost’s customers are first-timers to web hosting
o Bluehost is the first hosting platform ever recommended by WordPress.org
4. Hostinger
Cheapest WordPress hosting on the market ($1.59/mo)
Hostinger is a very appealing option when it comes to best WordPress hosting, and their entry level pricing has a lot to do with that. At just $1.59 / month, you get to build one website and welcome up to 10,000 visitors (/mo). You also get one email account and a free SSL.
Hostinger also has a handful of WordPress-specific features for you. These include a guided installation with a site-building wizard to speed things up.
With WordPress running, you don’t have to do much maintenance of your own. Most things like core and plugin updates are handled by Hostinger and happen automatically. To make sure that your site runs fast, Hostinger uses LiteSpeed Cache and has it pre-configured.
For those who want to tinker under the hood, there’s a whole database of WordPress tutorials, plus you get access to WP-CLI.
WordPress installation
Hostinger offers one-click installation, so there’s not much to talk about in this department.
What’s worth mentioning, however, is that you do get to choose from eight data center locations around the world – in the US, UK, Indonesia, India, Singapore, Brazil, the Netherlands, and Lithuania.
Then, when you log into your user panel for the first time, you can also go through the site-setup wizard. You’ll get to choose from Hostinger’s collection of pre-approved themes and pick the one that suits you best.
Customer support
Hostinger offers 24/7 support. The support team is easy to contact and they will help you with general inquiries (WordPress related and otherwise). Though, you might have to wait a couple of minutes before getting a response.

5. Kinsta
Best performance among managed hosting ($25/mo)
Kinsta is a boutique hosting provider for WordPress that focuses mainly on optimized managed hosting setups. However, them being “boutique” doesn’t mean that they can’t handle the load.
In fact, Kinsta has the full power of the Google Cloud Platform behind it. They take Google’s infrastructure and make it more accessible and easier to use. Kinsta doesn’t use the traditional cPanel UI, but instead gives users a custom panel that puts focus on what’s important while hiding everything else.
The fact that this host is “managed” means that it’s Kinsta who handle every server-management-related task for you.
WordPress installation
As you’re setting up your account, you can tell Kinsta to install WordPress on your hosting account for you. All you need to do is tick one box.
Customer support
Kinsta offers 24/7 chat and ticket support. The representatives know WordPress and can help with anything you might be struggling with.
Plus, the fact that you don’t have to deal with cPanel will also reduce the number of times you need to contact support in the first place.
Cost / mo. (12 months) $25
Cost month-to-month $30

Online reputation according to our hosting survey
o Rated 4.3 / 5 for “value for money”
o Rated 4.8 / 5 for “WordPress optimization”
6. WP Engine
Most popular managed hosting ($22.50/mo)
The plan we’ve tested here is called Personal, and it’s the entry-level plan with WP Engine. As part of it, you’re allowed to have 1 WordPress install, and it can handle up to 25,000 visits a month, so probably more than enough for most new websites.
WordPress installation
The whole sign-up process with WP Engine is very straightforward, and I’m only mentioning it here because getting WordPress installed is an integral part of that initial sign-up. In other words, you don’t need to do any WordPress installing on your own, the WP Engine team takes care of that for you.
At the end of sign-up, you simply get an email with all the access credentials and important data regarding your new site.
Customer support
WP Engine offers some great support options – via helpdesk and chat (plus phone if you’re on a higher plan).
Overall, users report very good quality of WP Engine’s support – currently rated 4.5 / 5 by our survey respondents. And we can only confirm this, as the quick interaction we’ve had with the support team has been nothing but positive (helped us get the test site going after solving a billing issue).

Cost month-to-month $27

o 4.7 / 5 – that’s how users rate WP Engine’s level of WordPress optimization
o 92% of users say they will extend their WordPress web hosting subscription with WP Engine
o WP Engine reliability ranked 4.5 / 5 by users (top rank among the best WordPress hosting firms here)
7. DreamHost
WordPress-endorsed hosting ($2.59/mo)
We selected the standard shared hosting package with DreamHost, which was the most expensive of the base offerings we tested. Still, a very popular WordPress website hosting in the market.
Overall account signup with this shared WordPress hosting provider was slick and painless, and I was eager to see how DreamHost’s much-touted SSD servers would perform.
WordPress installation
The one-click install options in the backend worked straight out of the gate and the interface was generally straightforward to navigate.
Customer support
We needed some help in configuring a temporary URL as a subdomain on the main Dreamhost domain. Customer support was easily reachable via chat and able to help us clear the issue up quickly.

8. A2 Hosting
Great out-the-box performance ($2.99/mo)
A2 Hosting is a relatively new player for us when looking for the best WordPress hosting. The company has been making a name for themselves in the WordPress space lately thanks to their affordable prices and very good performance (compared to other similarly priced hosts).
The company has more than 10 years of experience in the hosting world, and seems to know a thing or two on how to deliver a high-quality product. Their WordPress web hosting offering is set on a couple of principles: being developer friendly, offering high security, good performance, and a WordPress-optimized environment.
WordPress installation
All WordPress hosting accounts with A2 Hosting come with WordPress preinstalled. You can also install new instances of WordPress through Softaculous’ one-click installer.
Customer support
A2 Hosting prides itself on giving you access to “24/7/365 Guru Crew Support.” They claim to hand-pick their support team and only work with the most knowledgeable technicians.
When contacting the support, you can use live chat, email or even phone. The agents don’t disappoint when it comes to basic WordPress knowledge and, based on our quick test, they are ready to recommend some solutions even if the question you have for them isn’t entirely hosting-related.

InMotion offers a lot of hosting options, but we wanted to look into the ones that are optimized for WordPress specifically, so we went into the “WordPress hosting” section and selected the plan called Launch. This one is the most affordable.
The great thing about it is that you get SSD disk space without any additional fees (SSDs are known for their superior performance compared to the other hard disk technologies). Also, you can have 2 websites on this plan, and you get a free SSL certificate.
WordPress installation
Another surprise with InMotion is that you get WordPress preinstalled as part of your WP hosting package. All you need to do is tick the right checkbox during the checkout process. In other words, you don’t actually need to do handle WordPress installation on your own, it’s all being done automatically. Also, during install, you get to select your preferred “max speed zone.” There are two settings: east and west. Depending on which you choose, the site is going to be faster in some parts of the globe vs the others.
After everything is done, you’ll get the access details to your new WordPress dashboard, which is all that’s needed, honestly.
Customer support
Right after you sign up, you’ll realize that InMotion has a lot to offer in terms of support and helping you to launch your website. There are tens of different guides and tutorials on various hosting-related matters. There’s also a separate knowledge channel all dedicated to WordPress.
But that’s not all, the support chat is available 24/7. We’ve tested it by asking some domain-related questions regarding the temporary URL of the site. The person on the other end was able to solve those at first try. Really cool.
Cost / mo. (12 months) $6.99
Cost / mo. (24 months) $5.99
Cost / mo. (36 months) $4.99

Free security suite and marketing tools
Online reputation according to our hosting survey
o Rated 8.00 overall by survey respondents
10. HostGator
One of the most popular mainstream hosts ($2.75/mo)
Signup with HostGator was straightforward and we were soon logged into a pretty traditional cPanel setup on the backend without incident.
WordPress installation
Installation was also painless using the built-in cPanel WordPress installer. We did find ourselves having to update themes post-install, but that was just a matter of a few clicks.
Customer support
Again, we reached out to customer support for assistance in setting up a temporary URL. Here we hit our first minor inconvenience with a wait time of eight minutes on chat. They weren’t quite as quick to point us in the right direction as previous WordPress hosting providers, but we got there in the end. (E.g. when comparing HostGator vs. Bluehost, the support chat is much easier to access with the latter.)

11. GoDaddy
Biggest market share for hosting ($1/mo)
We went for the basic package here.
Despite their formerly less than stellar user interface reputation, signing up to GoDaddy went without a hitch.
This feeling continued on into the backend, which was a modern take on cPanel and intuitively laid out – the easiest one to navigate so far in fact.
WordPress installation
WordPress installation was a snap with the built-in installer.
Customer support
GoDaddy was the only WordPress hosting provider on our list not to support the provision of temporary URLs, so we were forced to set up a standard subdomain here.
Our initial attempt to contact support via chat was less than ideal, with wait times of over 40 minutes reported, so we hit the phones instead. (E.g. when comparing GoDaddy vs. Bluehost, the chat can be accessed much quicker with Bluehost.)
Support here was superb. Extremely friendly and professional, they talked us through the subdomain options and assisted in making changes on the account itself.
This continued on in subsequent chat support tickets that were required to clear up some minor DNS snafus that emerged on the registrar side.

12. GreenGeeks
Best green-powered hosting ($2.49/mo)
GreenGeeks is an interesting alternative for those of us who consider themselves being environmentally-conscious. This WordPress hosting platform has been built with the principle of “maximum use” in mind, which means that the architecture makes it possible for no resources to be wasted anywhere.
Also, the company claims that for every amperage they pull from the grid, they re-invest three times that in the form of renewable energy via Bonneville Environmental Foundation.
On the WordPress side of things, GreenGeeks offers WordPress-specific plans at affordable prices, and with lots of features.
All of their servers use Solid State Drives (giving you better loading times), there’s customized caching technology, you get a free SSL certificate to use, and you can integrate your setup with Cloudflare. Here are all the details about GreenGeeks’ platform.
As a great added bonus, you also get a free domain name for a year with your setup.
WordPress installation
GreenGeeks gives you handy 1-click WordPress installs, so there’s not much you have to do by hand.
Apart from that, you also get automatic updates, which should make managing the site on an ongoing basis more hassle-free.
While setting up your account, you also get to choose from data centers in Phoenix, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal and Amsterdam.
Customer support
You can use three main support channels with GreenGeeks: email, phone, and chat. Probably the best option of the three is the live chat – available 24/7. The phone support is available during working hours.
GreenGeeks also gives you access to a knowledge base and a range of tutorials on their website.

You can actually get a refund on that app you didn’t like
Don't even try requesting a refund after you finished your game, though. ( William Hook / Unsplash/)
Software like apps and games are in a weird place—the old model it’s on its way out, but consumers are still not sold on subscribing to every app they own. Developers aren’t sure what people want—and people aren’t quite sure either. But more and more platforms are building their business models on subscriptions, and app stores are still reluctant to offer free trials on these services. Add that to interfaces designed to be an in-app purchase minefield, and it’s easy for users to accidentally buy something they actually didn’t mean to, or that wasn’t quite what they expected.
It happens—we’ve all forgotten to cancel free trials before we’re billed or that annual subscription is renewed. Or had our kid or our now least favorite nephew download a paid app or use our credit card to buy lives on Fortnite. And when it does happen, one thing’s for sure—we want a refund.
Unfortunately, getting your money back for digital intangible goods isn’t guaranteed in the US. But if there’s any chance of getting one, here’s how.
Check the policies
App stores, game stores, and developers all have different refund policies, and believe it or not, some are (shockingly) consumer friendly.
Take, for example, the refund policy of the online video game store, Steam:
You can request a refund for nearly any purchase on Steam—for any reason. Maybe your PC doesn’t meet the hardware requirements; maybe you bought a game by mistake; maybe you played the title for an hour and just didn’t like it.
That all sounds great, but it’s not as simple as the opening line makes it seem. For games, you have to have played for less than two hours and request your money back within two weeks of purchase. Refunds on in-game purchases are complex too: for games developed by Valve—the creators of Steam—you can get a refund within 48 hours of purchase so long as whatever you bought hasn’t been “consumed, modified or transferred”.
But this is not an overall policy on the platform, so third-party developers are not forced to offer the same refund conditions. There are similar caveats for gifts, if you’ve been banned, if you paid with Steam Credits, made a pre-order purchase, and so on.
Similarly, the terms and conditions on iTunes and the Google Play Store also include refund requests, although in the case of Apple’s store terms are rather opaque. You have to log in to the Report a Problem portal, find the app you have an issue with, request a refund selecting what you feel is a valid and appropriate reason, briefly explain why, and hope it gets approved by the inner-bureaucracy.
Google’s policies are a bit clearer, although hedged with ifs and maybes. Within 48 hours of purchasing an app you can request a refund from Google by logging into your Play Store account, going to Order History, selecting Request a Refund on the app you want to return, and explaining why. If you miss that 48-hour window, you have to contact the developers directly.
Try cancelling your subscription
This is probably what your niece looked like when she signed you up for that expensive annual subscription. ( pan xiaozhen / Unsplash/)
It may seem easier to just cancel that subscription, but things are not that easy and you’ll find most services won’t automatically give you your money back. For example, if you cancel a recently renewed subscription you purchased through an app on your iPhone, it just cancels the next renewal payment. This means that if you’ve just signed up for a year, you’ll stay subscribed for the next 12 months.
However, there are exceptions that have more consumer friendly policies. Office 365 gives you the option to cancel your subscription immediately and receive a prorated refund for any remaining time left if you cancel within 30-days of purchase.
Contact the developers
Before you roll up your sleeves and go for a fight, you can always go straight to the source. Even when they don’t have official policies for it, most developers will happily give you a refund for a download or subscription if you have a good reason to request it. I’ve used this resort several times and most of them I’ve managed to get my money back after I’ve forgotten to cancel a service that wasn’t what I was looking for.
The key is to remember you’re dealing with human beings, explain what went wrong and ask for your money back nicely and politely. If you just demand a refund right after finishing that game you bought, or because you forgot to cancel a free trial, they’re much more likely to deny your request. And they’re probably right to do so. But specially for up-and-coming developers, it’s better for business if you leave a happy client, and considering the marginal cost for them in this case is zero, they’re more likely to give you that refund.
Head over to the developers’ website and find whatever contact options they have. A phone number or live chat is best as you’ll actually get to talk to a real human, but email will also do the trick.
Make a scene
The final option is to go nuclear, but please be warned I’m not recommending this without serious hesitation. You should have exhausted every possible resource you had to get your money back before even thinking about making things public. Going on rants online is exhausting and time consuming, so you might want to think about it twice before you decide to go this way.
With that said, if the polite approach hasn’t resolved the issue, and you genuinely think you’re entitled to a refund, it’s time to take to social media. Big brands and even small developers relentlessly monitor platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to see what people are saying about them. The fastest way to get what you want is posting your grievances on there, making sure to tag the company.
It may be more uncomfortable, but it’s better to try this approach before leaving negative reviews. Companies and developers really depend on user feedback for visibility on big platforms such as Google Play or iTunes, so if you’ve already left a one star review, the damage is done and they’ll be less likely to help you out.

Last Updated: A day ago
In December 2019, two browsers (Mozilla and Opera) removed Avast extensions from their stores due to data privacy concerns. Avast collected user data such as browsing history and activity, reaching far beyond the tool’s performance needs. Its privacy policy defends storing user data since it’s anonymized, but the company offers no clear policy on length of data retention. We no longer stand by Avast’s services. Note that this also implicates Avast subsidiaries AVG Online Security and AVG SafePrice.
Avast Internet Security at a Glance
Avast Internet Security is an antivirus suite designed to protect your PC from malware, ransomware, adware, and other threats to your hard drive. The program works using artificial intelligence (AI) technology to recognize specific software signatures and behavior patterns of dangerous programs and files. When an unsafe item is detected, it is placed in the “Virus Chest,” a quarantine area safe from the rest of your computer. From the Virus Chest, you can choose to either mark a program or file as safe or have Avast remove it from your computer.
Avast Internet Security
Visit Avast Site
Avast Internet Security’s additional features go beyond basic protection from viruses to extend your security to your online experience. Its email shield works with your email program to keep you from accidentally sending or downloading malware. The browser extension makes sure you’re not landing on any potentially dangerous websites. You can even create your own secure browser to keep you safe during internet banking and shopping.
Pricing and Features
Price Check Price Malware Protection Yes Protection against Unsafe Links and Downloads Yes Performance Issue Scan Yes Real-Time Security Updates Yes Extra Ransomware Protection Yes Enhanced Firewall Yes Fake Website Protection Yes Browser Cleanup Yes Sandbox Yes Game Mode Yes Wi-Fi Protection Yes Password Protection Yes Webcam Hacking Protection No Mobile Device Protection No Parental Controls No
Pros
Free Trial Avast offers a free thirty-day trial of the Internet Security software so you can try before you buy.
Money-Back Guarantee If you do purchase the software and you’re not happy with it, Avast offers a thirty-day money-back guarantee.
Automatic Renewal Automatic renewal isn’t always a good thing, but antivirus software is like health insurance: you don’t want to be caught without it. Avast’s yearly auto-renewal ensures there’s no lapse in protection for your PC, but you can also opt out at any time.
Coverage for Additional Devices Avast will let you increase your Internet Security subscription to include additional devices as needed, but there is an additional charge.
Cons
No Phone Protection Avast doesn’t offer mobile device protection with the Internet Security suite, but you can go online and download a version of Avast Free Antivirus to protect your Android device.
No Parental Controls Most antivirus software suites include settings to prevent kids from accessing inappropriate content online, but you’ll have to purchase a pricier package if you want this service from Avast.
No Data Shredder At this price point, we’d hope to see a data shredder included with the package, but like the parental controls, you’ll have to pay for an upgrade to get this feature.
Features and Usability
Avast has several additional features that go above and beyond a standard antivirus program. While some are useful—like the Sandbox and Browser Cleanup—others, like SafePrice, have little to do with security and can be annoying.
Pros
Firewall While many other antivirus software firewalls work by either allowing nothing in or nothing out, the Avast firewall uses a more sophisticated system of rules that allow it to decide what passes through. This is a smarter approach that still provides top-notch protection.
Sandbox Avast’s Sandbox feature allows you to test out new software in a separate, protected space on your computer before it interacts with the rest of your hard drive, so you can make sure it’s safe.
Wi-Fi Protection If you’ve ever worried about strangers using your wireless network, Avast’s Wi-Fi protection will stop them in their tracks, and it monitors for hackers on hardwire networks as well.
Anti-Spam Filter Most email providers offer spam filters as part of their services, but few offer customization options like the ones available through Avast. With Avast, you can adjust the strength of the filter and automatically whitelist email addresses you send mail to.
Cons
Pop-Ups If you’re not careful during installation, you might end up with a lot of Avast pop-ups for additional features like Software Updater and SafePrice. Fortunately, you can disable most of these by either clicking “customize” before installation begins or by going to the Preferences tab in the program. Putting Avast in Game Mode can also solve the problem.
Download and Installation
Downloading Avast is pretty straightforward. We did find a few glitches with installation, but they’re easily fixed.
Pros
Fast Download and Installation Avast is quick to download, and most users find it easy to install.
Cons
Confusing Setup Several customers complain that even though they bought a one- or two-year license for the program, their installation screen shows that they only have a thirty-day license. We looked into this issue and learned that you need to enter your product code into the program in order for it to update the license.
Protection and Performance
Avast has one of the lightest touches on the market when it comes to quietly doing its job without interfering with your computer experience, but its scans may run longer than expected.
Pros
Cyber Capture If Avast catches any suspicious threats that it doesn’t recognize, it sends them to its virus lab in the cloud for analysis. If the lab identifies one of these threats as malware, it notifies all Avast users. Not only does this keep your antivirus software current, it also adds more layers of protection.
Light Impact Your computer will still run at normal speeds, even while running the Avast antivirus software.
High Test Scores Avast blocked 99.6% of malware with only one false positive, and it blocked 100% of malware encountered online—this is according to tests from April 2018, run by the independent testing organization AV Comparatives. It received three out of three stars and an Advanced+ rating for both protection and performance.
Cons
Longer Scans The only downside to Avast’s light touch on PCs is its longer scan times. Expect the scans to run longer than some competitors.
FAQs
What is a VPN?
A VPN (virtual private network) encrypts your connection, allowing you to be completely anonymous whenever you connect to any device. This keeps you safe from advertisers and others who try to track your online activities, and it also gives you added protection when using public Wi-Fi.
Does the Avast Internet Security suite include VPN protection?
No, but you can purchase it as an add-on to the Internet Security package by buying Avast SecureLine VPN.
What is SafePrice?
SafePrice is a deal alert feature that automatically installs on your browser when you set up Avast Internet Security. When Avast notices you shopping online, it will automatically start to search for a better deal for you. If you want to remove this feature, you can disable it under Preferences without affecting Avast’s protective features.
Does Avast Internet Security include password protection?
Yes, Avast includes a password manager that allows you to create a single secure password for all of your accounts, but its features are limited. For additional features like one-touch login and Password Guardian, you can upgrade to a more robust Avast Passwords Premium for an additional fee.
The Bottom Line

Semalt – How To Avoid Or Remove Mac Defender Malware In Mac OS X v10.6 Or Earlier?
In recent months, phishing scams have targeted a large number of Mac and Linux devices. Even the users of legitimate websites complain a lot about these scams. They often say that their computer devices are infected with viruses and malware in no time. The victims are then asked to pay ransom before getting access to their personal computers. It is also possible for them to install antivirus programs that aim to protect their Mac devices from possible phishing and viral attacks. An antivirus program helps users to keep his credit card numbers and bank account details safe. It also protects his data from fraudulent activities to a great extent.
The most famous tools are MacSecurity, MacDefender, and MacProtector. Apple has also launched a range of programs and free software that automatically scan your computer systems and remove Mac Defender malware and its variants within a few minutes.
Nik Chaykovskiy, the Senior Customer Success Manager of Semalt, elaborates on some useful tips on how to protect your system from malware.
Resolution
If you receive any notification about malware and viruses, it is better to install a security software or antivirus program as early as possible. We also recommend you to quit on Safari and other similar browsers because they may contain a lot of viruses and malware. Instead, you can use either Google Chrome or Firefox that are far better than other browsers, guaranteeing that your computer system will be saved from possible threats. If you want to try something new, the Force Quit is a comprehensive and amazing browser.
Some of the browsers automatically download and install strange files and things. They also launch a series of programs that may contain malware and viruses. Thus, it is important that you install several malicious software and programs in your computer as early as possible. If it stops functioning, you should uninstall and cancel its subscription. Meanwhile, you should not share your username and password with anyone on the internet. Delete all those software and programs to stay safe on the web. For this, you should go to the Download folder and drag the installer to the Recycle Bin. Empty the Trash within a few seconds so that you face no problems on the internet.
How to remove the viruses and malware
If you have accidentally installed malware on your computer, it would be great that you don't provide your credit card number and passwords to anyone, even when you know the person. That is because when you type your information, the hackers may get to know them and steal the information within a few seconds. There are also chances that they will transfer your money from one bank to another. Thus, you can use the Removal Steps and close the Scan Windows. Then you should go to the Utility folder and launch the Activity file. After that, you should select the Processes option from the pop-up window and look for the apps that you want to uninstall. The most common and renewed apps in this regard are MacSecurity, MacProtector, and MacDefender. Once you have chosen any of those apps, the next step is to click the Quit option and restart your Windows. You should bear in mind that Apple provides its users with regular security updates. So, whether you are using a Linux or a Mac device, you can get benefited from those updates.

Celexas Cream Review: Don’t Buy Before You Read This!
What is it?
Celexas is a sexual enhancement product that claims to help users “do more” during sex. This product is designed to help the body feel more energized, burn fat and improve sex drive and performance.
Celexas reportedly works by stimulating the blood flow and at the same time increasing metabolism, resulting in weight loss and erectile function. The Celexas website claims this product also works to increase energy and regulate hormone levels in the body.
After looking at a variety of drugs, dietary supplements and more, we’ve found Viritenz is the best enhancement solution available for sale. An herbal blend of ginseng, tongkat ali, tribulus terrestris and more, work together to increase libido and erectile function, as well as improve performance and keep the reproductive system running smoothly. To learn more about the many benefits Viritenz can provide, click here.
Do You Know the Best Male Enhancement Supplements of 2017?
Celexas Ingredients and Side Effects
The Celexas website does not feature an official label, but they have chosen to list the active ingredients on the product webpage. Here’s a quick look at what you’ll likely find inside this product:
Yohimbe Extract L-Arginine Maca Maritime Pine
Yohimbe Bark Extract: Yohimbe is an evergreen tree found in Western Africa and its bark is used in a number of natural remedies. Yohimbe bark works to stimulate the circulatory system, and produces an enhanced feeling of arousal—a combination of aphrodisiac and vasodilation effects, which makes it a choice herbal solution for ED.
Side effects may include nausea, headaches, vomiting, sinus pain and congestion, irritability, anxiety, increased blood pressure, insomnia and tremors.
Additionally, yohimbe may cause kidney failure, heart attack, seizures and racing heartbeat.
Maca Root Extract: Also known as Peruvian ginseng, maca is a root crop known for its many health benefits, which includes improved athletic performance and energy levels, as well as its effect on male sexual performance and fertility.
Maritime Pine: An extract found in the bark of a pine tree, this ingredient is thought to improve physical stamina, energy and athleticism, as well as naturally treat erectile dysfunction. It may also help treat male infertility and offers a number of benefits ranging from clear skin to heart health.
Side effects may include dizziness, nausea, headaches and mouth ulcers.
L-Arginine: An essential amino acid, L-arginine is a precursor to nitric oxide, a substance that brings blood to the extremities, the brain, and the penis, allowing for better erectile function.
Read more about how you can increase your libido, boost performance and more, all without a prescripton.
EDITOR’S TIP:Combine this supplement with a proven male enhancement pill such as Viritenz for better results.
Celexas Quality of Ingredients
Celexas only relies on a few key ingredients to deliver the long list of benefits advertised on the website. It’s not exactly clear if the main purpose of this product is to boost sexual function or is targeting those with weight loss goal or who want to have more energy in their day-to-day life. The ingredients do have a host of sexual benefits, but may help with at-the-gym performance as well.
Of the four ingredients listed on the site, we did not like that yohimbe was included. While it can be a useful herb for stimulating sexual function, much in the way a prescription ED medication can, this natural aphrodisiac still poses many of the same risks, without any of the regulation of prescription meds.
Additionally, we were unable to find much independent information outside of the site evaluating the formula from a objective point of view.
Check out our hand-picked guide to the best natural male enhancement supplements.
The Price and Quality of Celexas
Celexas is seems to only be available through the dedicated Celexas webpage if the user opts to sign up to receive a free sample. The consumer is expected to enter their information and likely will be enrolled in an autopay cycle which predictably ships out an order of the supplement each month until the customer chooses to cancel.
What we thought was a bit strange was, the website never actually mentions how much the product costs, only providing a call to action for the customer to “rush my order” and sign up for the trial.
Unfortunately, this product cannot be found elsewhere on sites with a better reputation or at the very least, greater pricing transparency.

Business of Celexas
The company that manufactures Celexas is known by the name, Based Capital, LLC and their contact information is listed below:
Phone: 844-688-6199
Email: [email protected]
Address: 12924 Pierce Street Pacoima, CA 91331
Based Capital hardly has an online presence, despite being the company behind several male enhancement products, health supplements and more. We were unable to find much information about this company under this name nor the brand, Celexas, but there are a number of reports filed under their other ventures.
A brand known as Beauty Impressions, also a Based Capital brand, received an F rating from the Better Business Bureau.
Also, if you type in the business address, this company appears to be using one associated with a pet store in Pacoima, CA.
Here’s a look at what past consumers have had to say after dealing with this company:
“Total scam, maybe a class action lawsuit is the way to go, since so many people have had similar experiences. They’ll probably just open another business and keep doing the same thing.”
“I accidentally signed up for the free trial, and I could not cancel my subscription. Ended up having to cancel my card and report fraud to avoid a lifetime of $200 charges. Don’t fall for this nonsense.”
“I was asked by a lady on the phone if I wanted auto renewals when the trial ended and said “no.” Sure enough, I was billed about a week later for almost $200. The trial itself turned out to be the same as agreeing to this scam. “
The Celexas website itself is kind of outdated, despite the fact it says it was designed in 2017. The copy on the homepage is a little confusing and at times, uses grammatical errors or simply doesn’t follow the conventions of the English language.
There are no scientific data sets or clinical studies, or even a clear function of the product. It seems as though the creators of the site are either unclear what they are selling, or trying to do too many things with one product.
Customer Opinions of Celexas
Unfortunately, we had trouble locating any reviews directed toward Celexas itself, rather than the company Based Capital and the problems people have had after trying to do business with them.
Because Celexas is only available for sale through the dedicated product page, there are few accounts of people who tried his product on their own and reported their experience.
Based on the lack of information about the formula, the strange company background and the fact that we don’t even know the price, there’s little evidence suggesting this product is worth a try, and that’s before taking into consideration that there are zero customer reviews available.
Learn more about the different herbal male enhancement supplements out—click here to see what solution is right for you.
Conclusion – Does Celexas Work?
After taking a look at Celexas and the business behind it, we do not recommend this product as a viable male enhancement solution. The formula contains yohimbe, an ingredient with a known risk of particularly dangerous side effects and the Based Capital comes off as a company trying to mislead their consumers.
Based Capital raises a lot of concerns. They make several male enhancement products, as well as operate in the health and beauty space. This is not a problem in and of itself, but some of the companies they operate have accused the firm of fraudulent business practices, including a predatory free sample “sales” technique, which automatically enrolls consumers in monthly billing cycles.
Plus, Based Capital is using the address of a pet shop, so it’s not clear if they are using an address that does not belong to them, or if they are selling a range of supplements under different names from the pet shop.
In addition to the transparency problems occurring at the highest level of this business, the Celexas website does not even list the price, which seems a bit strange in most e-commerce contexts.
For all the reasons outlined above, we recommend finding another male enhancement product with more information available to the customer from pricing to formulation and more.
We’ve looked at a lot of male enhancement products, and found Viritenz is the most effective natural sex pill of its kind. Made using an herbal blend containing maca root, long jack and more, this supplement is a healthy, proven solution for erectile dysfunction and low libido.

Vita Luminance Review: Don’t Buy Before You Read This!
What is it?
Vita Luminance is a topical cream that is used for daily moisturization and general skin care needs. Its website says that it stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps to make the face firm and UV resistant. They further claim that it is formulated to reduce over-pigmentation and decrease the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, helping users look younger and healthier.
Our panel of beauty and wellness experts has Kremotex ranked as their number one skin care product for general skin care needs. They rated their cream the highest for moisture levels, cellular activity, and overall wrinkle reduction. Click here to learn more about Kremotex’s proprietary blend of ingredients.

Vita Luminance Ingredients and Side Effects
Vita Luminance doesn’t have a copy of their ingredient list posted anywhere on their website, and their advertising only mentions one active ingredient:
Retinoid
Retinoids: A highly concentrated form of vitamin A that is found in many skin care products that is also thought to have antioxidant properties.
Vitamin A is a necessary chemical for proper biofunctionality in general and it plays a roll in the formulation of new skin in particular. It helps the body generate new collagen and repair damage to older collagen, as well as improving circulation to the skin.
Improved collagen levels helps to tighten pores and prevent UV damage, as well as the negative effects of other environmental hazards such as smoke, exhaust, dust, and other pollutants. These elements all contribute to the formation and release of free radicals – atomic structures that can damage the skin.
Free radicals destroy cell membranes, which leads to sagging, dull, and discolored skin. Retinoids can also help lessen this effect because they are high in antioxidants, the chemicals that the body uses to fight off free radicals.
Retinoids and vitamin A are not harmful to the vast majority of humans and there are no serious side effects associated with their consumption, assuming that it is within reason.

EDITOR’S TIP: Combine this product with a proven anti-aging cream such as Kremotex for better results.
Vita Luminance Quality of Ingredients
It is hard to judge the overall effectiveness of Vita Luminance when they only list one ingredient. They aren’t even specific enough to say that Retinoid is the only active ingredient, so in addition to all of the inactive chemicals there may be opt her drugs that have a significant effect on the skin that Vita Luminance isn’t choosing to disclose.
This is a problem for a number of reasons. First, it is impossible to say whether or not Vita Luminance is even safe for any given user. If you have allergies, there is no indication if Vita Luminance will provoke a reaction in you. It may or may not interact with any medications that you are taking, and the ingredients list may or may not contain carcinogens, toxins, or other harmful chemicals.
Second, it is impossible to say if the ingredients that they are using are going to be effective or not. Retinoids are an excellent ingredient, but they are unacceptable as the only active compound. Are there others? If so, are they well regarded? These are questions that it is impossible to say without access to their ingredients.
Third, the gesture of choosing not to publish their ingredients is one that should make consumers nervous. Companies with quality ingredients want to publish them to prove to consumers that their products are superior to the competitions. Companies whose ingredients list is substandard often times do not choose to publish it so that consumers cannot see that they do not measure up to the other products in their field.
Retinoids are well regarded by our tam, however in order for them to be able to recommend a product it has to have more than that in order to be as effective as competing skin creams, and they have to be able to demonstrate that they are not using simple alcohols, lye, or any of the other common harmful additives that still get used in skin care products.

The Price and Quality of Vita Luminance
Vita Luminance does not use a traditional or straightforward pricing structure for their products. They do not sell their product on a per-unit basis, or even publish a base price for it. Instead, the only option available on their website is to sign up for a “free offer.”
“Free offer” is in quotations because there is not actually anything free about it. All users must also pay shipping and handling for the product, however that is a fairly standard caveat for offers like this and is not the main issue. The biggest problem with this offer is that consumers are actually signing up for an automatic renewal program – a fact that is not prominently mentioned on their website.
Judging by the many angry customer reports that can be found on sites like Ripoff Report and Consumer Complaints Board, people frequently do not even know that they are enrolled in the subscription program until after their credit card is charged – sometimes multiple times.
The subscription rate is exceptionally high as well: $97.21 per month. This is well above market norms for products of this nature, even super-premium products that have proven track records and well-regarded ingredients lists. Even if Vita Luminance was an effective product – and there is no indication that it is – this would still be an unreasonable price.
If customers try to cancel their program, there are hidden fees, if the try to return the products there is a restocking fee, and if they choose to keep the “free” product they are charged for it. All of these details are mentioned in a “Terms” link found hidden on the bottom of only one of their multiple web pages and are not made accessible to consumers unless they are deliberately looking for it.

Business of Vita Luminance
Vita Luminance is one of several companies that are all operating using the same dishonest business model. They deliberately try to obscure the name of their overall parent company and instead list a number of different shell companies, such as Coal Cosmetics, Skin Technologies, and Satin Youth. Vita Luminance claims to be a product of Revived Youth, who list their contact info as:
Phone Number: (800) 878-9702
Address: 7565 Commercial Way, Unit E
Henderson, NV 89011
Email: [email protected]
The Better Business Bureau and the Federal Trade Commission have both been contacted regarding Vita Luminance and their affiliates, however there is no indication that there is any current legal action being taken against them.

EDITOR’S TIP: For the best results, our experts recommend using anti-aging creams for at least 3 months. Save your money by buying a few bottles at once.
Customer Opinions of Vita Luminance
The most frequent type of account from customers of Vita Luminance are from people who are angry about being tricked by their “free trial” program. There are also quite a few people who expressed outrage over the nature of the product as well, and there were many reports similar to these:
“The worst skin cream EVER. Not only did it not moisturize my face – my skin actually got DRIER – it also gave me a serious infection.”
“I thought I’d try Vita Luminance to see if it could help me with my melasma. It was not only totally useless for that, but it made me break out like crazy.”
“Run! Do not give these people your money or your info, and if your skin is important to you then DO NOT PUT THEIR PRODUCTS ON IT.”
Many of the complainants felt like the manufacturers knew that their product was ineffective and chose to sell it anyway because all they are trying to do is secretly charge people for the subscription plan, and then charge them again when they try to get out of it.

Conclusion – Does Vita Luminance Work?
Our reviewers believe that it is important to help people find good quality skin care products. People’s skin is important for their health and their appearance and we take seriously our duty to help people find products that will make their lives better.
What is so offensive to our team about Vita Luminance is that they are taking advantage of this fact and manipulating consumers who are only looking for answers to their skin care needs. They have never attempted to make a quality product and their only goal is to defraud consumers into accidentally paying them for their sham product.
Do not sign up with them. Their offer is not free, and there are plenty of reputable products that you could buy with the money that they will charge you.
Our panel believes that Kremotex is the most effective skin care product available without a prescription. It has apple stem cells and shea butter in it, two of the most naturally effective ingredients known to science, and they supplement those with other vitamins and nutrients.
