The customer service number...
...only gives you 2 options and both lead to a voicemail. Somehow, I got on the mailing list and the text list in the email list and these *** just won't leave it alone. I've asked numerous times to be removed from that list but I still keep getting their *** in my inbox.

I have tried to delete my act blue account over the past 3 days Keep in getting error messages page won't load page ...not found etc. This Act Blue account must be canceled forever !!!

This could be contributing to the extensive fraud that has taken almost everything from me. Living on a disabled seniors income it is not comfortable trust me.
Please remove my name and address And any other info it may have from Act Blue as soon as possible !!!.. Please help me maintain some semblance of dignity.
Please as soon as possible.
Respectfully,

P. S.
Usually what hits those categorized as living below the poverty line is just a test... It may be coming to you soon. Be alert...We have got to understand that conducting business online is treacherous and dangerous .
We must have better precautions because a man I don't even know selling me a car went online and created an account under Geico insurance when I had progressive insurance for 13 years and that man has turned my life upside down please stop the insanity of allowing people to create accounts online until we have safety protocols in place. Y'all have been lied too lied too lie to by the very people that have pumped our government full of personal computers that make sex trafficking drug trafficking and gambling so much easier and so much more accessible.
Do you think that might be a correlation why women are treated so badly is that the algorithm that everything is based on by those two boys in college?
- Too many
Preferred solution: I want my act blue account canceled forever Never to rise again .. due to the avalanche of fraud I am experiencing in my personal life... I must shut all windows and doors for a while.
User's recommendation: I have been using it to get informed about all the people running for office but they're an election times That means 30 a day at some times and since I'm in current extensive fraud and a traumatic brain injury for my car accident where the car dealership removed me from my insurance and put me with their insurance with the wrong serial number wrong VIN number Can you imagine having no access to money after you have been surviving off a disability insurance from a severe neck injury I've lost patience with trying to cancel this account on my own It's as if it's built in to keep us spending around... I am dizzy Please make it stop with sincere respect I ask your help... Manley

Verified Reviewer |Resolved: Donation clarification
Interesting that I was asked to 'review my interaction' with ActBlue, but they never called me. So I've had no interaction with them/you. Can you help me?
Preferred solution: I'd like to hear from someone at Actblue so I can find out what I'm donating to or for
User's recommendation: I'd stay away until Actblue gets responsive to donators

Verified Reviewer |Monthly payments are being taken from...
Keep trying.
I have contributed a lot of money to Act Blue over the years because I am a die-hard Democrat. I normally only contribute on a one-time basis.
For some reason (which could be my mistake) I have now been contributing monthly ($29). The purpose of this email is to request that you cease to take the $29 a month from my credit card.
Please confirm that you will stop taking this money from my account.
Best Regards,
Mary K. Theder Schwartz
P. S.
Please note that I use my husbands (James E. Schwartz) credit when I make contributions.
Preferred solution: Stop taking the $29/month from my credit card.

Verified Reviewer |I am being overwhelmed by both emails...
- - Overwhelmed by emails and texts; wants outreach stopped.
- - 80 years old; seeks leadership changes in House and Senate, will keep some recurring gifts.
I am being overwhelmed by both emails and text messages from Democratic candidates and organizations. I cannot handle it anymore, and I am about to close my account.
This has to stop. I will continue with a few recurring donations, but I no longer can handle the unchecked number of requests. I don't wish to cancel all my support, but unless you help me get out of this quagmire, I will be forced to do so.
I am 80 years old and understand the importance of changing leadership in both the House and Senate. Don't force me to give up on supporting the party.
- Ability to give to specific organizations
- Too many politicians are begging me for donations
Preferred solution: Removal of my email address and cell phone from lists of democratic candidates. Paring down of my long list of recurring donations
User's recommendation: Be prepared to be inundated by requests from 100s of candidates!

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with full refund. I was charge for something to a place I did not request.

Order #AB39899****. Thanks.

Verified Reviewer |Majorly pissed off customer

Verified Reviewer |Absolutely inundated with 30-50 text messages per day.
- - Frequent solicitations arrive after donations, with daily messages.
- - Text messages feel intrusive; there is no live-call option.
I've made a few small donations to Democratic candidates and ActBlue must see that as an invitation to further solicit me for every other Democratic candidate and related cause in the country, often repeated daily solicitations for the same candidate. And if you can find their phone number (617-517-****), their outgoing message says that they don't accept live phone calls??
You can f&*^ing text me 50 times per day but you won't take a return call??
I've gotten FOUR messages while I was typing this note. Sorry dems, I'm never making another donation that goes through ActBlue!
- Support democratic candidates
- Methods are overwhelming
Preferred solution: STOP sending me numerous texts every day!
User's recommendation: Stay away from Actblue

Verified Reviewer |I would like a refund for the monthly payment you have been taking after I asked for it to stop.
What has happened is I asked for less emails and texts and they grew to be more than it was before I did not subscribe to the monthly nine dollars being taken out of my account and I would like to have it refunded back to my account. Thank you Act Blue is OK, but I cant fill out the survey And add money too.
If I dont have it to give. Why do you keep insisting to say that Im no longer a Democrat, which is not true.
I am not and have never been a Republican so please dont send me emails like that because I will not answer them and I dont have extra cash to send to you all. Thank you.

Verified ReviewerI’m a socialist
- - Stopped donating to candidates whose politics caused extinction.
- - Support social democrats or openly supportive candidates and won't use ActBlue.
I realize you are not officially a part of the Democratic Party but a form of PAC that supports Democratic candidates. I simply want to say that I am no longer willing to share monies with Democratic candidates who do not recognize that their politics have led us to where we are: facing extinction.
I will only support candidates who are either social democrats or openly supportive of social democrats and therefore will not use ActBlue. Thank you.
- Too tied to tired old politics
Preferred solution: Democrats who do not act like republicans
Cancell a duplicate donation
I could not get through to anyone. First, my written request was erased, then my phone call was disconnected to this place where I am now writing this review! This service sucks!
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don’t use act blue!

- - Confusing activity and donation pitches on the site.
- - Recurring donation charged without consent.
- - Request cancellation and a refund to the credit card.
I have contacted you several times regarding the confusing presentation of activity on your website and pitches for donations. Months ago, I sent a donation of $5 to George Conway's campaign.
I did not authorize a monthly $5 donation, nor could I ever afford to do that. I have asked multiple times to cancel the recurring donation and asked to confirm it has been cancelled. I received no cooperation from Act Blue it has been done. It appears the 5th or maybe 6th contribution has been made recently.
Please refund my money to my Credit Card and let me know it is done. Thank you very much.
I don't recall which email address I used to communicate with you in the past. I'm 85 yrs old and some things get away from me!
User's recommendation: Check and check again that what you entered did not go to recurring donations! Act Blue has a way of making that happen without your knowledge!
