You get a message "unsubscribed succesfully" and within one hour new spam mails apear. USELESS REPLY RECEIVED TELLING. you can adjust your settings, of course did I do this but as already advised this doesnét work. THEREFORE remove me from ALL your Servers

Unauthorized charge of $191. I reaceoved an unauthorized charge of $191.00 for a premium service that I will never use and I have never requested. This is truly unacceptable. I am not an academica and have never written an academic research paper. After I disputed this charge, Academia.edu has failed to reimburse this charge. I wish to have these funds reimbursed immediately.

horrible The website fails to correctly parse author names from uploaded PDFs. The exported citations are missing many co-author names, which may confuse referencing software and affect citation counts - creating opposite effect of what academia.edu claims to achieve. Answering Academia: The support team suggested that I should get all my co-authors onto academia.edu, and ONLY THEN the citation would show the correct information. This seems like a dubious marketing strategy! I would suggest everyone to AVOID ACADEMIA.

first the very bad news .. first the very bad news ... a simply click gives academia.eu access to all of your google contacts!! BEWARE giving your contacts away as it can be used maliciously. second... endless 'recommendations' that in effect become spam by sheer numbers. Occasionally i do come across an interesting paper, but i have to wade through so much else to find it. NOTE THE REPLY. NO DENIAL THAT TAKING YOUR CONTACTS HAPPENS! just a curious 'sorry you had this experience'. well of course i had this experience, thats IS the academis.eu experience they have set up!

doubled subscription without notice This company doubled my yearly subscription without any notice, taking it from my bank account without warning. I only noticed it a week or so later. This is an unethical, dishonest, business practice, and I can't believe they continue to do this despite all the bad reviews and previous posts from former users who have got burned by them.
