Refused a Refund

Im not impressed with the customer service. I struggled to find a way to contact someone to be provide my refund. I only ever had one communication from Jump Speak and that was from Last August. All of a sudden I am short £45 after a year. I had not way of accessing the app as it will no longer download on my phone. Trying to make contact was a nightmare and when they finally responded, it was more than outside of the 24 hour period so absolutely not impressed by the level of support received.
However I am learning that in this climate the best way to get help is thru leaving a review because before this, it’s impossible to connect with someone.
I was able to speak with Hannah and she was very helpful in resolving the issue in making sure to offer a goodwill gesture which is decent considering the circumstances.

Thank you

Pure Frustration

It does not recognize my voice half the time. The audio will often cut out with a whump sound and when they ask me to translate a long sentence by selecting words I rarely get it right. Lots of trial and error with no guidance.

JUMPSPEAK IS A SCAM

This app is one of the worst ever created. If you’re unfortunate enough to lend them your financial information, then you will have no choice but to cancel your card, otherwise you’ll be charged hundreds of dollars without recourse. Part of the ruse has to do with subscribing either through the app or the website. If you go directly through the website, you might have a chance to avoid being cheated, since there’s no third party for these criminals to hide behind. If you go through the app, they’ll refer you to a robot that plays dumb and it will be impossible to be treated fairly, since they can just blame the third party and refuse responsibility for their crimes.

This absolute scam is part of a wave of criminal behavior within the online world where they will bait well meaning people to giving them money via a third party and then leave them with nothing. I have even met one of these people at a foot massage place in Southeast Asia and was taken aback at how shameless he was about these businesses practices; it was even creepier since he was rubbing his hands together the entire time he was speaking jovially about how the third party subscription trick made them enough money to refund all the website subscribers while paying for a reverse engineered Frankenstein app created in the basement of an abandoned 3 star hotel in rural Cambodia. Buyer beware!

Abofalle & Fehlerhafte App

Die App wird selbst nicht als Abonnement auf einem iPhone angezeigt, verlängert sich aber automatisch nach 30-Tagen. Auch bei sofortiger Reklamation verweigert sich der Kundensupport einer Stornierung des Abonnements. Zudem ist die App bereits auf grundlegenden Sprachstufen (A2) voller Fehler, was dem Nutzer nur dann auffallen kann, wenn er bereits ein fortgeschritteneres Sprachniveau besitzt - also Vorsicht beim Lernen, insbesondere für Einsteiger!

Jumpspeak beginner

I’m really enjoying the lessons. They’re broken down into intros, vocabulary, listening, speaking, and asking my own phrases. I’m making progress..

Do NOT Download - SCAM

I am honestly grateful the card did not go through and the bank labeled it as suspicious. It is no different than Duolingo, and overall is a scam. They tried to charge the card without a heads up, which, thanks to my bank, did not let the transaction go through, saving me from losing $179 without warning. Not to mention, they make you jump through hoops just to cancel and get a refund, which is NOT how a business should operate. Apparently, based on other reviews, they will charge anyway even after cancellation. I will be contacting my bank before unfreezing my card to NEVER let another transaction go through. I wish I could rate this app negative stars, it honestly deserves it for the scam that it is.

Dont download this app

I am extremely disappointed with my experience with Jumpspeak.

I downloaded the app out of curiosity and signed up only for the free trial. I cancelled the subscription immediately on the same day because I did not want to continue using the service.

Despite this, I was later charged €37.32 on 16 June and another €37.32 on 16 July. I have also been informed by Jumpspeak Support that there was a €129 charge on 2 July for a “Premium AI” subscription. I do not recognize this purchase and I never knowingly subscribed to this service.

The most concerning part is that when I log into my account, it shows that I am NOT subscribed and even offers me the option to upgrade to Premium. I have checked my Apple subscriptions, and there is no active Jumpspeak subscription there either.

I contacted support to ask for an explanation and a refund, but instead I was told that these charges were renewals and that some payments were non-refundable. This does not answer my questions: how could I be charged for subscriptions that I cancelled, that I cannot see in my account, and that I did not knowingly authorize?

I find this situation completely unacceptable. Customers should have clear visibility of their subscriptions, and they should not continue being charged for services they believe they have cancelled.

I am still requesting a full refund and a complete explanation of these charges.

Please be extremely careful and check your subscriptions carefully if you use this app.

Orta

Some aspects are excellent - the focus on speaking sentences, the lack of childish supposed incentives and the feedback on errors made. The downside is that the content is very Westernised and has no relation to the culture of the language being learned. Proofreading of content is poor in places. A key downside is that all the content is random topics with no attempt to build in familiarity with key grammatical patterns - so I’m disappointed.

More transparency

You should be more transparent that with standard subscription you don’t get the mentorship and then after purchase I try to sell more products

Not good at all, especially if you have any previous knowledge

Maybe this could be good if you have absolutely no background in the language but if you already have any knowledge, this app is not helpful at all. Additionally, there are several errors/typos in the lessons, especially in the videos. The AI conversations and all lessons really are low quality and extremely unhelpful. I don’t ever really leave bad reviews, but I feel like I wasted a ton of money on a terrible app. they also make it extremely difficult to cancel your subscription.

Bait and pay

The AI is inconsistent and often gives poor choices or duplicates choices. The verbal recognition misses easy sounding words which can be frustrating. Worse - after paying $75 for unlimited access you have to pay additional fees after completing the basic level.

Terrible support

Bought premium and several extras. After a few days usage determined that “only on-line” functionality wouldn’t suffice. Requested refund and got it promptly. Then requested account data deletion. Got acknowledgment but no confirmation.

Then 2 weeks later I was charged $179. Support is MIA and the Ai agent is terrible. Still unresolved so considering legal action.

App is ok…but needs offline cache for travelers

Money grab

Be very careful with their free trial. There is no reminder and no warning that they are about to change your card. I bought a lifetime membership they included a free trial of the premium AI that I don’t need or want, but now I have paid for a year of it because I did not cancel until I saw the charge hit my card. Very shady.

Impossible to cancel and expensive

The educational aspect is meh. They use dark UX to make it nearly impossible to unsubscribe. I’m going to have to cancel my credit card.

Attempting refunds require requires 20 emails

I would highly recommend that you do not subscribe to this app as it is not very good and obtaining a refund is extremely painful

Response from developer

We acknowledge your experience with the refund process and how challenging it can be. Refund requests for purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play need to be directed to those platforms, as they manage all transactions. We appreciate your insights, as they help us improve our processes. For any further questions or assistance, please reach out to our support team at https://help.jumpspeak.com. Your feedback is valuable to us!

Great way to learn and get better

I’m already a decent Spanish speaker so I needed something pretty advanced where I could practice regularly and keep learning vocabulary. This app focuses more on real communication that you have to do while traveling and I find that super helpful. Way better than Duolingo for me.

Abofalle (auch bei Kündigung)

Ich habe das Probe-Abo abgeschlossen und rechtzeitig gekündigt. Dennoch wurden 99€ abgebucht und man kann es nicht richtig stornieren, weil das Datum meiner Kündigung mit einer falschen Jahreszahl (als hätte ich im Juni 2027 gekündigt) angegeben wird. Zudem bekommt man per Mail nur Antworten von einer AI und wird so aktiv daran gehindert, selbst die 24-Stunden-Widerrufsfrist nach der Zahlung in Anspruch zu nehmen. Vorsicht! Scam!

Avoid! Scam!

Despite what they say about free cancellation, they will actually double charge you and not respond to any customer requests. Total scam. They should not be allowed on Apple App Store.

Response from developer

We acknowledge your experience with double charges and unresponsive customer support, and we want to address this. Duplicate charges can be resolved, and any unfamiliar charges may relate to separately purchased plans. To get the best assistance, please contact our support team at https://help.jumpspeak.com. Your feedback is important to us, and we are committed to enhancing our service for all users.

Garbage Customer Support

I have not used the app very much since downloading it and realized that they had charged me for the next year of subscription and canceled immediately. They refuse to authorize a refund in a 24 hour window even though their refund policy is for 24 hours. Do not have humans to speak to. Don’t waste your time or money supporting AI slop
