Very suspicious and illegal. STAY AWAY!

Reviewed on 2021-04-04T15:31:13

Very suspicious and illegal. My daughter was sexually assaulted when she was 15 and the video was sold on Patreon.Within days, everybody at her school found out and bullied her over the illegal video. I reached out to Patreon to ask to have them remove it and Patreon told me to contact them on their help center at their website but after I submitted the ticket, I never heard back from them. I sent them dozens of e-mails, my attorney sent them e-mails and the police sent them e-mails and nobody has heard back from Patreon. To this date, the account selling the video of my daughter's assault is still online and still making a ton of money. Patreon continues to ignore everybody to have it removed. I don't understand how a company has the nerve to ignore lawyers and police asking for a rape video to be removed from their website, let alone allow the account holder to remain on their website and continue making money. THIS IS ILLEGAL. And now they're going to reply to me (as they've been doing to everybody here) and instruct me to do everything all over again so that "it goes to the team for help." Stay away from this company. If your loved one is ever assaulted and the video is put on this website, be prepared for a legal mess to have it taken down because Patreon will apparently stop at nothing to keep it up and protect the scumbag who put it there.

Stay far away from this company!!!

Reviewed on 2021-04-02T05:02:08

Stay far away from this company!!!! I canceled my membership months ago and if you look at my Patreon account,I have no membership and no financial information. However, they continue to charge me monthly and when I tried to get them to stop, they told me they couldn’t stop the charges and I should contact my credit card company. This has been a nightmare, stay away from these guys!

This companies customer service is dreadful. I contacted them over a year ago to cancel any subscriptions I had on my account.After thinking my subscriptions had been cancelled I was still actually charged £200+. I think an article in a national newspaper should suffice and warn people from using this service. If anyone else has suffered when using patreon please leave contact information in your reviews I will be checking in as they need to be exposed and I have the connections.

Fraud

Reviewed on 2021-03-21T08:22:53

The site owners directly support fraud as there are users making pages that promise a lot of content by having a lot of posts,however the posts are actually non-functional links, epmty posts etc (you can't see them before paying). Patreon has a policy that they do not interfere if you don't receive the promised benefits. If you have been victim of this and payed by paypal, Paypal was able to return my money so go to their site.

POLICE NEED TO INVESTIGATE

Reviewed on 2021-03-21T02:50:52

POLICE NEED TO INVESTIGATE, THERE'S CHILD PORNOGRAPHY/HUMAN SEX TRAFFICKING CONTENT FOR SALE ON THISWEBSITE I found a ton of pornography involving minors for sale on Patreon and when I e-mailed their support team, I was directed to report the accounts directly on Patreon.com. I did that and nothing happened, the accounts are still active and collecting money and the fan forums/social media accounts of some of these "creators" show them being tied up and sexually assaulted by older men. Can the police please look into this? This is not a joke, I've already reported this disgusting company to NCMEC.

Do NOT add your credit card details - scam!

Reviewed on 2021-03-18T22:46:13

I signed up on Patreon to follow a guy who I thought would be interesting. After checking the content,I decide to cancel the membership. Even though I signed up in mid-March, they charged me the full monthly amount. My membership is going to be only valid until March 31st, which means I would have only enjoyed half a month. However, Patreon doesn't refund me the extra $75 I paid upfront. Similar to many reviews, these guys are quite tricky with your money. They take it and play with it in a way that smells like a scam. First experience and last one with Patreon.

Patreon has been charging me tho I cancelled membership

Reviewed on 2021-03-17T19:02:40

Patreon has been charging me a dollar a month after I cancelled. When I go to their site they tell me I have no membership even though I signed up for someone’s performance through them.I’d cancelled my account, but they kept charging me a dollar a month. I had the performer’s manager call and I got my refund for the three months I had been charged for nothing. They refunded the $3 but continued charging me a dollar a month for the subsequent four months. When I just now called ther recording tells me to go to their website. Ha! Their website says no membership. Going in circles. Don’t use Patreon!
