Verified Reviewer |Question about which donation will have the biggest impact
Line just kept beeping. None said anything to me.
Then I was questioned as to whether my question was resolved. This was not at all helpful.
User's recommendation: I didn’t get to speak with anyone

Verified ReviewerStop all donations
This has nothing to do with the operation of this company. The reason for my cancellation is that my husband has passed, and I don't have the funds any longer.

Verified Reviewer |Once you get involved with this organization, their behavior becomes predatory: they crush you like a snake and will not let go. And this has gone on for years!
They continue to capture anything I try to contribute. I want my name and all records expunged by these parasites so I can contribute INDEPENDENTLY!!

Verified ReviewerThey charged me more than I agreed upon
They asked for a quick $15 contribution. They then also asked for $4 more to cover something.
That comes to $19, right? I agreed.
They then slapped my card with a $31 charge. It feels underhanded.

Wish to donate, account problems
Have tried over and over again to get help for editing my account so that I can donate. Every time I try, it just dead end somewhere.
Ive been doing it for two days and Ive had no success.
Im in my 80s and technology is difficult. I wish I could just talk to a human and get it taken care of.good luck.
User's recommendation: Good luck. I didn’t have any.
ACTBLUE took money out of peoples credit card accounts without permission . I experienced this more than once. BEWARE of this scam dot com. They take OVER 3% commission without transparency.
Do not use ACTBLUE. They are not transparent about the 3% plus commission and unauthorized deductions from your account once they have your credit card number. Contact your local Attorney General.
User's recommendation: Don’t use actblue. Donate directly to your cause. Contact your Attorney General and Better Business Bureau.

Verified ReviewerActBlue has RUINED my phone number.
They refuse to tell me if they are continuing to provide my contact information to candidates.
I gave around $300 to various democratic candidates through ActBlue during the last election cycle. Since then, I have been receiving AT LEAST five fundraising texts A DAY from Democratic candidates since the election ended.
I reply STOP for every message, and it does nothing because ActBlue SELLS your contact information to political campaigns. So my phone number is ALREADY out there and LITERALLY the only way to get the texts to stop will be to get a new phone number.
For all I know, they're STILL selling my information.
I have contacted ActBlue directly, and their response was basically what I've already said. They aren't responsible for the texts, they're just the ones who sold my number.
- I will have to change my cell number because of them
Preferred solution: I WANT THE FUNDRAISING TEXTS TO STOP
User's recommendation: ActBlue is a scam. They make THEIR money by selling donors' information. The texts WILL NOT stop.

Verified Reviewer |Resolved: Unhappy Supporter
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Rep responded to my problem ticket with an apology, full refund and possible explanation of the cause.
I made a $50 donation through PayPal on February 1. I then received receipts from ActBlue for two additional $50 donations on February 4 and February 5 that I did not make.
I was unable to contact anyone through the ActBlue customer service phone number, so I submitted a complaint and request for reimbursement online. I have had no response.
