I came across ads for the Buddy.ai app online, which clearly promised a 7-day free trial. Based on this, I decided to sign up. However, despite the "free" offer, the app forced me to enter my credit card details just to activate the trial. I reluctantly provided my information, thinking I could test the app and cancel before being charged if I wasn’t satisfied.
Shockingly, before even completing a single day of the supposed 7-day free trial, Buddy.ai immediately charged me $24 (around ₺ equivalent). The app didn’t meet my expectations, so I reached out for support. There’s no phone number, no office address—nothing. I sent an email and waited several days to get a response, only to be told that my subscription was canceled but no refund would be issued.
This is completely unethical. How can you claim a 7-day free trial and then charge customers instantly without providing any service? It’s misleading, exploitative, and borderline fraudulent. Worse, as they are operating from abroad, it’s hard to hold them accountable. I demand an immediate refund and ask that they stop misleading people with false advertising. I will report this to consumer protection authorities if it isn’t resolved.
I downloaded the Buddy.ai app to try the advertised 7-day free trial. As required, I entered my credit card information to activate the trial, expecting no charge until the period ended. However, the moment I submitted my card details, I was instantly charged without warning. This completely defeats...

I initially signed up in August 2024 for what was advertised as a one-month trial, followed by an optional continuation plan. The promotion clearly stated that the first month was free and included an additio...
I subscribed to the Buddy.ai app for my child in October 2024 after the free trial ended and purchased a one-month plan. After that one month, I canceled the subscription in November 2024. Despite canceling it properly, I have continued to see unauthorized charges of ₺349.90 on my credit card every ...
I downloaded the Buddy.ai app last month to try the free trial version. Unfortunately, I forgot to cancel the subscription before the trial ended, and a payment was charged to my account. As soon as I noticed the charge, I canceled the subscription and uninstalled the app from my phone. I even recei...
I am very frustrated with Buddy.ai. Despite not having an active subscription for months and not using the app at all, I was suddenly charged ₺499 from my credit card without any prior notice or authorization. The app had been deleted from our devices a long time ago, and we hadn’t logged in since. ...
