Dear Mark,

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your negative experience with Statista.

Aside from being a market researcher, we are also a data aggregator, so our customers can find all relevant data, publicly available or not, side by side on our platform. Hence our own surveys and research is published alongside data from more than 22,500 different sources. Most of them stem from data partnerships while some come from publicly available sources. We guarantee transparency and adherence to academic standards; this is therefore we disclose all our sources, which are continuously curated for relevance and reliability.

We would always recommend reviewing the original source information to also learn more about where the data has come from. If you would like to share with us more information about the specific data you were viewing we would be happy to look into this further.

If you did not find what you were looking for, we’re happy to assist you in finding all the data that’s useful to you. We apologise for any inconvenience caused. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us at account-management@statista.com.”

First Class walk through. Thank you

I was taken through the Statista system and stats archives online by Nina Vorobiev. She did a fantastic job and really opened my eyes to the possibilities for accessing and using this data. As I said during my meeting with Nina, I wish I'd known how to do all this some months ago. But, at least I know now! Thank you.

Genuinely predatory business practices for small businesses. Have to cancel 6 weeks before annual contact end date despite very contradictory and confusing T&Cs. Purposefully do not notify you before that time period even when they say they will when you sign up. Stay away - unethical company. Extremely frustrating and rude to deal with.

Do not purchase!

I purchased a single account, thinking I would have the same access to data as the corporate account (thinking the extra charge is for multiple logins). Upon paying 468USD for the year's subscription it is evidently clear that most of the useful data requires having to pay more and that most of the data I have paid for is available for free on the website.

I asked for a refund within 24 hours of the subscription and was declined, because I had read 3 articles. The customer agent sent me a "premium" dossier that I would normally have to pay for (to make up for not giving a refund) but in the end this kind of terrible customer service leaves a very sour taste in your mouth. After only using the site for a day, I would have expected to have 11 months refunded but was told this wasn't an option.

Stop advertising a "monthly" subscription which you have to pay a year in advance if you're not willing to give any refunds within a tiny time period of using the low quality data available.

Very frustrating/bordering on fraudulent behaviour.

Dear David,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback and we're sorry to hear about your negative experience with Statista.

Prior to purchase it is made clear that the Single Account gives you access to our Premium Statistics and no our Reports, Dossiers and Outlooks which are only accessible with our Corporate Account. Our company is also partners with other data providers and when our customers view their information, we also have to pay for this viewing.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us at account-management@statista.com.

Worst site ever and worst terms and conditions ever. Its a scam if you know how to navigate the Internet and do reserach. Most, if not all, their subscription-based data is available free on the Internet and even in their site, without a subscription. You won't get much different if you paid their subscription. They advertise with a monthly subscription but they will charge you a full year. I do not recommend doing business with this company.
