Do not use trial subscription. Beware scam.

I used the trial subscription to check out the app. Once I realised the app was pretty useless I deleted it and forgot to cancel my subscription. Today I was charged for the trial subscription ending, and the second I was charged I emailed the customer support to ask to cancel my account and refund the trial subscription which they charged for 1 year. They told me that it was non refundable. I am now taking it with my bank and will also warn others on Trust-pilot about their services as I did not want their service at all and they still won’t let me get a refund despite making a mistake when subscribing. I don’t recommend using this app at all.

Response from developer

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. We understand that forgetting to cancel a trial can be frustrating, especially when the subscription then renews for a full year. The trial can be cancelled before it ends, and deleting the app does not cancel the subscription. We take your feedback about the refund process seriously!

Feels like a scam

I would strongly caution anyone considering the free trial.

I signed up for the trial and never used the service even once. The subscription then automatically converted into a paid subscription and I was charged. I contacted NeoTaste immediately after noticing the charge and requested a refund, but they refused.

Their explanation is that the 14-day refund/withdrawal period starts from the beginning of the free trial, meaning that by the time you discover the paid renewal, they may simply tell you that you are already outside their refund period.

I have literally never redeemed or used a single NeoTaste benefit, yet they still refuse to reverse the charge.

This feels deliberately designed to catch people through automatic renewal rather than retain customers who actually want the service. Be extremely careful before signing up for the “free” trial and make sure you cancel well in advance.

Very disappointing experience.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. The free trial can be cancelled at any time before it ends, and without cancellation the selected subscription continues automatically. We understand your frustration with the refund process and take your feedback about clearer communication seriously!

SCAM

Absolute scam, they promise to send an email before your trial is up so you can cancel and they did not do so. I am now left with an app I have paid for that is completely useless as the deals are genuinely awful. The customer service is condescending.

Slow to remove places

I’ve gone to quite a few places recently only to find that they’ve cancelled NeoTaste. If businesses in the map have cancelled you are wasting my time to make the map look full. Pls sort it out!

SCAM / FRAUDULENT BUSINESS MODEL

DO NOT USE THIS APP. I strongly recommend staying away from NeoTaste.

The free trial automatically turned into a paid subscription and I was charged today. I immediately contacted customer support to cancel and requested a refund, but they refused to return my money despite me not using the paid subscription.

What is most concerning is that they knowingly keep the payment and refuse to refund it even when the customer contacts them immediately after being charged. Their response is simply that I should have cancelled earlier.

This is an extremely deceptive and exploitative subscription model. It is deliberately designed to catch customers with automatic renewal and then keep their money when they ask for a refund.

This is a scam and fraudulent business practice. I would NOT recommend this app to anyone. Stay away.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating an unexpected renewal can be, especially when you contacted us immediately after the charge and hadn’t used the paid subscription. The trial subscription renews automatically unless cancelled before the renewal date. We take your feedback about transparency, refunds and customer support seriously and are continuously working to improve these processes.

Unfair charges

I tried to resolve this with the provider and raised a dispute about the charges within 48 hours of the fee deduction and explained i have not even logged in during my trial or do not intend to use the service also proved never received there reminder email spam, junk, inbox, deleted and all lf thay not showed in the app store and denied to refund just saying its terms we cant!
What does that mean taking control out your customer I am so annoyed and frustrated never had issues in the past with any other retailer, really un reasonsable

Amazing

Great customer service

wouldn't recommend

i cancelled my free trial, and they still tried to take money out of my account. didn't even use the app. good job i'm poor, and my bank account is empty. jokes on them.

Scam!!!

I was charged even though I cancelled the so called free trial!!! Refund my money!!!

Amazing app

Literally the best app I’ve come across in terms of deals so great for date nights, roommate meals!

THEY STEAL YOUR MONEY

Awful app, awful communication. They’ll take money from you and say you signed a contract agreeing to it. Disgusting.

Worst experience

I downloaded the app while travelling in Germany, but where I live the service isn’t even available. I genuinely believed I had cancelled the free trial, as I never used the app afterwards. I received no reminder before the annual renewal, only discovered the charge after it happened, cancelled immediately, and requested a refund the same day. Despite never using the renewed subscription, my refund request was refused. Very disappointing customer experience and subscription policy.

We're sorry to hear about your experience. Subscription renewals occur automatically unless cancelled before the renewal date, and the subscription details are shown during sign-up. We understand how frustrating this situation was, especially as the service isn't available where you currently live, and we take your feedback about reminders and the overall customer experience seriously.

AVOID

Do not download this app! I downloaded this app from TikTok very briefly, looked around and saw there were no food spots that I’m interested in, and I instantly deleted it. MONTHS LATER I had almost £40 deducted from my bank account, under NeoTaste, for a subscription I never signed up for. I don’t know how this could have even happened. I contacted their customer support to explain this and they’ve refused me a refund, telling me to ‘enjoy what the app has to offer’ which is absolutely nothing at all! And I never signed up for it in the first place…AVOID!!!

Response from developer

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. NeoTaste is a subscription-based service, and any charge is linked to an active account created during sign-up. If a subscription is not cancelled in time, it may renew as communicated in the app and during registration.

Awful customer service

Amazing app and a good concept, but I joined on the premise of a free trial. Despite only using it once I could see I would find it useful in the future so I cancelled a week or so before the trial end date and was going to renew at a later date. For whatever reason the cancellation hadn't happened even though I was told that I had. I was later charged around 35 for an entire years subscription. I reached out to customer support and was told by Jana I would not be eligible for a refund despite the error on the apps side. Despite multiple emails back and forth explaining my situation and how I had actually cancelled. I was refused a refund and any further help. Appalling customer service and I am currently £35 down and can't use the app since I am home from university currently and my home town is my not available on the app so cannot even take advantage of the app.
Won't be using again.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear about your experience. We understand how frustrating it can be when a cancellation does not appear to go through as expected and when the service is not available in your area. We take feedback regarding subscription management and customer support seriously and use it to continuously improve the user experience and our communication.

Not worth your time

I was automatically subscribed to their monthly membership without proper notifications. I haven’t used it once after signing up as I realised it’s not working for me.

Their customer service is not helpful at all so I’d just save myself time to not bother with downloading this app.

Highly recommend!!✨

Been able to save over £100 in 2 months alone on eating out! Also loads of places to pick from! Good to use for a food tour around a city!

Unethical. Do not sign up. Report to apple.

Signed up for a trial, never used app after day 1. Charged me £35 for annual subscription. Refused to refund me. Will be taking matters further based on principle.

FALSCHE PREISE AUFGELISTET !

AUF KEINEN FALL WIEDER!
Ich wollte zweimal Umami bestellen. Als ich ankam, hatte man uns das Menü bereits gebracht und die Preise für Umami waren circa 3,50 Euro teurer als in der App angegeben. Man sagte uns, dass die in der App angegebenen Preise nicht akzeptiert werden können. Trotz der höheren Preise wollte ich zweimal Umami bestellen. Dann wurde mir gesagt, dass ein Mindestverzehr von 50 Euro erforderlich sei, um die Aktion nutzen zu können. Ich habe gefragt, wo diese Information zu finden sei. Da die Dame mir keine Antwort geben konnte, haben sich die Kollegen unterhalten und erwähnt, dass sie es dieses Mal akzeptieren würden. Das ist sehr unverschämt.
NeoTaste kontrolliert auch anscheinend nicht die Preise.

Scam avoid at all costs

You will not be reminded cia sms or email of the subscription they stay silent, emails go automatically to spam unsure what they do wrong for different emails providers to categorize them as spam. False advertising and no support from customer team. Unlawful to charge 35£ with no cool down period or remindersespecially that they have user contact details.

Scam

Signed up for free trial, did not receive any reminder subscription would renew. Support not considering any refund, even if service was never used during the free trial and later. Feels like scamming people after the free trial ends is their entire business model.
