"Don’t waist your money this is a Con!"

Don’t waist your money. This company is a con!

I paid £219 for the top package thinking that my CV would get a full overhaul along with my LinkedIn page.

Outcome was a very light touch with minimal changes, they expect you to do a lot of the work and the timeline they take to do the the job is delayed then they cut you off if you don’t reply promptly!, I’m a UK resident and all of the rewriting was completed in American English using Z’s and not S’s, poor attention to detail!

I still don’t have a finished item, so I’ve paid for an unfinished job!

I’ve asked for a refund in full or part and they don’t give you any money back, they say all transactions are final! Rubbish!!

Absolute Sham, I could have used AI for free and got a better outcome. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

I wish I had read the reviews but due to LinkedIn endorsing TopCV when you apply for advertised roles I put trust in them. How foolish was I. Con merchants who have zero customer service values!

""Feel free to reach out" [but it will cost you if you expect a reply!]"

Sent my CV off for a free review and received a fairly helpful response back within 24 hours. This is why they got 3 stars. At the bottom of the email, it said "Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or for more information on our professional CV-writing services."

So I replied with my new CV, which I had updated following the reviewer's advice and asked him to expand on a couple of his suggestions e.g. asking him what he meant by "The size and type of bullets should also be taken into account." and what size and type exactly he would recommend. He replied, saying he's limited to 1 review per client but I could pay €129 for a full review and re-write. Yet again, he signed off with "Feel free to email me with any questions, or to simply share your thoughts on the matter." which is exactly what I'd done and he replied with the paywall!

Now, I realise I may have been naive to think the service would remain free but I object to the language telling you to "feel free to reach out with questions" when they won't respond unless you pay for one of their packages.

They don't even guarantee results. Some of the (more expensive) packages pledge a free 2nd rewrite (note this is NOT the same as a refund!) if you don't get 2x the number of interviews within 60 days!! SIXTY days! They obviously don't have a lot of faith in their own services if they're not willing to refund you if you don't get results sooner than that and I would question if they're doing a great job the 1st time round if they think a "2nd rewrite" would help!

When I re-read his original review, it also seemed generic in places like it came from a template e.g. he advised me to remove the start and end dates of my university years to avoid ageism but they weren't even on my CV, so this was obviously a copy / paste from somewhere else.

Reading some of the reviews on here, I gather that results are mixed, so I don't think I'll be investing the €129 for a full rewrite just yet. Even if their services are genuine and worth the money, they're great at making it sound like a scam.

"They have expert writers"

They have expert writers, that are alternately to instructions. I appreciate their work.

"It has been 10 years since I needed to…"

It has been 10 years since I needed to start the process of applying for a new job - I was struggling with a re-write that would be interesting to prospective employers. Chris M did an amazing job with the new CV layout & wording - the Cover Letter was also exceptional. All taken care of in 2 days, even with some edits. Fantastic service and well worth every penny. Thanks Chris.

I am happy with my second time purchase. First time in 2021 I managed to find a job right away. I hope that the history repeats in 2024
