Adobe Customer Service Sucks!!!

[Namvamp]

I have wasted no less than 3 hours on two different platforms trying to get in touch with Adobe Customer Service for some help with changing my subscription!!! I waited for 1.5 hours on the phone, no luck. Thought I would try the online chat option, sat there twiddling my thumbs for another hour, while the damn thing just kept saying "we are busier than usual, please wait".....It seems that you guys no issue taking our money every month, but offering us support, nope!!! What a crock of a company!!!!!

Sooooo frustrated right now!!!!!

Except being frustrated: Did you get help solving your problem or do you still have a problem? I have to say that each time I contact customer support, I get quickly a chat partner on the line.

I agree.. over 2 hours on a chat with the standard we are busier than usual crap.. But they take your money like 1, 2, 3

Friends,

Four persons from support chased my simple problem for over five hours.

The solutions did not solve my issues.

I gave up: "After 30 years using Adobe products, I want nothing to do with your products.

Please look through for anything I am paying for and cancel everything.

Life is too short to deal with this."

The representative was kind enough to cancel my subscription.

Best to all y'all.

Wow! Sorry to hear about your ordeal.

Folks who offer help on the forums are regular folks like you and I.

Wish we could do more, but it is a customer support function.

Dear Master Mo,

Thank you for your kind response.

I have a simple heuristic.

Bad support equals bad product.

Best,

Hi Pete,

I've been at the wrong end of customer support too and I appreciate the frustrations.

By no means was it a defense of poor service. We should call out bad customer experiences.

Adobe product ain't cheap either.

My response was merely to indicate that the folks that offer help on the fora don't work for Adobe and are thus unable to resolve issues of this nature.

All we can do is empathize with those that have had issues, and help as best we can.

For what it's worth, I wish you the best.

Keep making beautiful art and design. Be it with Photoshop or with Pencil.

Best

Literally the worst service ever! I can't believe that Adobe would ruin their reputation like this.

I agree ive been trying to cancel my subscription but they make it literally impossible and ruined their reputation with me and I was just about to use it for my organisation. Goodbye Adobe.

You can find out exactly which products & services you are subscribed to  24/7 by logging in to your Adobe Account.  For best results, use a good desktop browser like Chrome or Firefox that accepts cookies and does not have script blockers.

To cancel your plan, see links below.  These methods work for the majority of product users.

Adobe is literally the worst, worse than Comcast

I've been locked in for a subscription I couldn't use because of their technical design flaws. My account would say I have no plan but I would keep getting charged, on the Creative Cloud app would only keep sending me to a page to buy the same plan I already am paying for. I was also blocked from canceling the account - it said I have to reach out to the account administrator which doesn't exist because it was an individual account.

Now I've been on hold for a call with the customer service support for 40 minutes. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. NEVER PAYING FOR THIS TERRIBLE SERVICE AGAIN.

Phone service is painfully slow.  Use online chat instead.  It's much saner.

1. Log-in to your account below with your paid, individual CC ID and password.
   https://account.adobe.com/plans
2. Click on Manage Plans.
3. If you still need help, scroll down to Contact Adobe button on the same page.
4. In the chat box, type AGENT followed by Enter key.

The customer service is insane. Chatting over a technical issue like the never-ending Acrobat no print issue takes HOURS. Four hours to be exact.

I have actually no idea what the people at Adobe in California do. What is their job? What to they work on? Well apparently they give cut rate student dicounts to people that are subsidized by full paying customers. They work in a large campus, doing something that approaches work, as it is possible they themselves do not use their own products or use a phone or computer to deal with their own customer service.

The updates come from Microsoft, and then Adobe blames Microsoft. Do they talk to each other? Do they wonder at night waht an update might do to their Creative Suite? Guess not.

Adobe is the triad of non-responsible companies that throw garbage out and hope you do not notice. So if you work for yourself, keep one day a week open to have customer issues for an entire day with Microsoft, AutoDesk and Adobe. Tis is what an entire day is for. To deal with their bad products, bad update, non-integration between them, and general bad glitchy garbage.

The company is a dumpster fire of accountability and bad products.
