I purchase Microsoft Office Home and…
I purchase Microsoft Office Home and Student 2021 - Instant Download for Windows on 9/7/24. First, I'm being charged $21.00 a month which is not even indicated on my original invoice. It actually states $0.00 for Membership. Second, I can't get into my Microsoft programs. Cancel this membership immediately!

Stay away from these SCAM artists
Stay away from these SCAM artists. I tried to purchase Acid Pro 11 and was not able to download the program because it kept asking for a Voucher Number which is nowhere to be found. I contacted the company many times with no response. There was no help. I offered my phone number and still they wouldn't respond. Also, there is no phone number to call and request help. A poor way to run a business.

No longer grumpy
Their helpful and friendly customer service. I downloaded MS Office and couldn't get it installed. I am 80 years old and was grumpy about the whole thing. (Did being 80 have anything to do with the problem? Probably...) A quick message to SoftwareCW and a quick reply solved the problem.

Denied a refund.
Bought software online from them and was unable to activate. They refused a refund saying I had already downloaded it. Download, yes. Activate, no. Couldn't pull up the activation form to write in the code.

SoftwareCW Plus Membership was added to the order althiough I told them I did not want it.F creator…
I agreed to purchase Kofax PDF creator from Software CW. during the purchasing process I was prompted to accept a "trial membership" of their SoftwareCW Plus Membership. I unclicked the pre-clicked box indicating that I did not want to be a member and be invoiced $20 per month for the rest of my life. When I checked out and paid for the Kofax software their website automatically sold me the membership. The Kofax software seems to work as advertised. It took 30 minutes to find a possible way to cancel the CW Plus membership. I sent an email to them indicating my disappointment and instructing them to cancel the membership. I have not heard back from them yet.
These guys are scam artists
These guys are scam artists. I bought Kofax PDF software for $90 and SoftwareCW signed me up for auto-renew on their subscription, initially for $10/month and then suddenly for $20/month. I get absolutely no benefit for this ongoing subscription and did not notice the charges until a few months later.
SoftwareCW deliver promptly what you order.
SoftwareCW are not responsible for my own mistakes

First Time Buyer - Will Buy Again
The procedure to purchase was quick and painless. In addition I received the necessary download and easy instructions. Can't ask for anything more than that. try SoftwareCW - you will be glad you did.
Purchase software would not install
Purchase software would not install, and there is no real customer support to contact them, you hit contact us then the options are limited all done by email.

The company offered a 15 day trial
The company offered a 15 day trial, which makes it easy to determine if the software is what you need. Then it was easy to purchase the software when the trial was over.
Refund failure
On 29 July 2024 I was promised a full refund of more than AU$1,500 within 3-5 business days on the basis that my circumstances satisfied the refund policy of Software CW. It is now 15 August and no refund has been received by me. I have now asked my bank to assist me in recovering the refund.

Went online to purchase MS Office Home…
Went online to purchase MS Office Home and student, 1 Computer. Did not notice the 4 other s/w products on the checkout screen that I did not order. Was expected to remove them. The $34.99 purchase showed up as $89.99. Requested a refund, but was denied based on their return policy. This place is a Rip off. Lots of other reputable sites that you should seek. Changing my credit card number tomorrow. Do not want it in the hands of crooks.
