Resolved: No response for donation charge I didn't make

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They finally responded and issued a full refund.

Apparently, they're back-logged at Customer Service. I'm just glad they took care of it.

Updated by user Nov 25, 2024

Still no response from Actblue! It's been almost a full week, several emails and leaving a voicemail, and they have not contacted me about a refund. I could have made more donations to the organizations I like to support, but I will never use Actblue again.

Updated by user Nov 25, 2024

You have to leave a message because they don't take live calls. I have left several messages by email and one on their voicemail through you.

As usual, no response.

They are the worst and I will never donate through them again. I need my $70 back!

Original review Nov 24, 2024
I am so furious at actblue. I have been contacting them for days and they have never responded.

They charged me for a $70 donation, which I never made. Because of that, and unless I am given a full refund, I will never use actblue again.

They need to be held accountable for their mistake. Use them with intense scrutiny.

User's recommendation: Find another donation site and let candidates know that you will not donate through their organization

CINDY K DIB!!! ACTBLUE IS A ''NONPARTISAN'' scam operation.

They also collect an almost 4% fee for each transaction that is taken out of your DONATION.

They do not support anyone except their own PROFITS! I RECOMMEND A COMPLAINT TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN YOUR STATE.

Maybe have actual people to talk to instead of all automated system. It took multiple times to converse with a chatbot, which responded with a script for every answer I gave, to get monthly donation canceled.

Unsatisfied donor

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Its too long a story to type out here, someone from Actblue needs to call me and discuss it with; and if nobody cares to do that then consider that I will no longer be donating a contribution in the future...

Today your inefficiency, cost me my precious time trying to rectify (& unsuccessfully, I may ad) a problem that arose while I was trying to make my online donation ... Yes, I am pissed !

I wish to make a donation with my credit card , not to the Act blue secure account.

I have not reached a representative in order to inform you of my problem. My problem is because I want to pay directly with my credit card. Im not given the option..

Do not be foolish with your money. It is merely a ploy for individuals like Crockett to purchase homes, cars, and jewelery. Be careful, my friend, and don’t listen to the vitriolic rhetoric spewed by these thieves.

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Got mail saying that future payment canceled

Original review Nov 27, 2024

Today, I received a message about changes made to my Wells Fargo credit card ending 9069 for $26 and $6. I had canceled my subscription with ActBlue immediately after the election.

I wonder why. I object to this change.

YIKES! THANKS FOR THE INFO!

Ramsey Ptk

I am in the process of demanding my unauthorized deductions from ACTBLUE. Did you know they are "nonpartisan" AND they charge almost a 4% fee for EACH TRANSACTION~which they are NOT transparent about.

On another point~Try switching to a CREDIT UNION!! You will get service like you owned the place..which you do, when you apply at no charge. You also collect interest on your money. Just a suggestion.

If it wasn't for this website, (which I heard about from my CU) I wouldn't have learned how much of a SCAM ACTBLUE seems to be. Thank you PissedConsumer.

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Blocked future charges to actblue. I don’t believe they have not taken advantage of donors who intended or thought they were donating once but it was charged as a recurrent donation

Original review Jan 09, 2025

THANK YOU!! I SUGGEST REPORTING THIS "ORGANIZATION" TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL IN YOUR STATE.

P.S. ACTBLUE claims to be NONPARTISAN...which charges over 3 1/2% fee to whomever you donate to.

Not wanting to make it Monthly

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Your ad was not clear about the fact that it was a monthly recurring charge until after I had already made my contribution. I used my credit card because I only wanted to make a one-time donation, not a monthly one.

Resolved: Spam and not reporting my donations to the Harris campaign

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Total spam, not counting and reporting my donations to the Harris Campaign, being harassed by texts and emails, with no way to directly speak to the company. I will need to report and dispute this company.

Stop calls! Up to 20 a day!

My husband experiences up to 20 calls a day! He needs to be removed from your list of names! These calls are political.

Hope I have the right number!
