A nightmare to cancel their reoccurring charges

Do not install. This is a scam. They will immediately upsell you on additional services. You get no interest on your postings without paying more than the base subscription rate. Cancelling the base subscription rate is nearly impossible. There is no way to do it in their app or website. “Cancel at any time.” Is simply not something they want you to be able to do. I have made requests over email multiple times and they are still attempting to charge me. Be incredibly wary of this platform.

SCAM

This app is a scam that will attempt to take money from you account every month but the app doesn’t work and they state in the beginning that they do not offer refunds. DO NOT USE. May have been a real thing at one time but it definitely is operating as a scam right now in 2024z

DO NOT USE

100% recommended!

Thanks to this app I got a job as a nanny with a great family! I am very happy to work for them. the app is easy to use and helps you find a job according to your needs. I absolutely recommend this app!!

Useless App

I used nannypod services a few years ago before the nannypod forum was replaced by the app version. I have requested services and the app states that it is locating a caregiver and it disables being able to make another booking. No notification is given to confirm a booking or one being declined. I also had to pay a credit within the nannypod app. I have asked for a refund, with no response. I have asked for guidance as to how to use the app and shared why it isn’t user friendly, with no response. I believe this app is fraudulent and a way to get users to upload money that will never be returned. My next step will be reporting this to the better business bureau.

Response from developer

Hello, We are terribly sorry you feel this way about NannyPod. Unfortunately, the developers we used went out of business (we can see why!). Our goal is to ensure that every parent can access childcare safely and quickly. We are working on an even better solution, which will be coming out soon!! Kind regards, The NannyPod Team, www.NannyPod.com NannyPod USA Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. NannyPod™.

Awful

When I signed up as a nanny it asked me for all my information, including my bank account to setup payments for any gigs I received. After all that it told me my account was awaiting approval and if I want to log out. I logged out to see if that would quicken the process, but it won’t let me log in and keeps saying “something went wrong” and that my password and email don’t match up. It all seems like a scam to me.

Response from developer

Hello Gabby, Stripe who is our payment processor would not allow us to change the messaging to our users when setting up payments. We are working on moving away from Stripe for obvious reasons. We are terribly sorry you feel this way. Our goal is to ensure that every parent can access childcare safely and quickly. We are working on an even better solution, which will be coming out soon!! Kind regards, The NannyPod Team, www.NannyPod.com NannyPod USA Incorporated. All Rights Reserved. NannyPod™.
