Klaviyo: Email Marketing & SMS

Does not supress marketplace order information like other app at a top level such as Judge Me. Extremely poor customer service and was advised that shopify is responsible for this app.

Shopify customer service has advised this is klaviyo's responsibility.

I want to cancel the $15 SMS package but when I do it myself the system cancels everything including my emails even though it is the SMS that I want to cancel. Weronika says that they cannot cancel this service on their side that I no longer want. IT LOOKS LIKE A HOSTAGE TAKING

We've been loyal Klaviyo customers for 5 years, investing $12,000 USD annually in their platform. Recently, due to a system error, the size of one of our segments was miscalculated right before our billing cut-off date, which meant we were unable to fully use the email credits we had purchased, and they expired. I contacted Klaviyo support just 3 minutes after the new billing cycle began, explaining the system error and requesting a one-time credit for the expired emails.

Considering the nature of the issue and our long-standing relationship, I expected this to be a simple, reasonable request. Unfortunately, Klaviyo refused to grant the credit for emails we had already paid for. This has been a disappointing experience and, in my view, a clear example of poor customer service. Based on this experience, I can no longer recommend Klaviyo.

Sell your soul to this application. Yes, it has functionality and integration; BUT once you are on the system they own you. The design it so that it's almost impossible to unsubscribe. You can downgrade and they will automatically upgrade you, charge you, fees all the time without your permission. But they will never downgrade you, refund fees, unused.

Most importantly-- support won't help. They say it's a "self-service" platform so when it comes to just asking support to cancel your account. They won't. They send you down a rabbit hole, 10 clicks deep into pages, to find the one way you can cancel the plan.

I'm a prisoner. Having set up my flows in the system, which they don't give you any option to export, unhooking will be very labor intensive. I regret, 1,000%, my decision to partner with this application.

More importantly- support will not make CORRECTIONS to erroneous billing without double billing you! It's a total SCAM. I think this is CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT worthy... someone needs to shut these people down. They are stealing.

Has to be THE WORST customer service I have ever encountered. No chat, no phone number, only email, which is promptly ignored. I've been waiting a week for them to respond to an account access issue. Can't do much if I can't access my account. No need to point out the irony of a marketing company that doesn't seem to understand that their customers, the ones that pay for their service, need prompt, helpful support every now and then.

An update: It is now three weeks, and Klaviyo has still not bothered to contact me and assist with my issue. Nice try suggesting it is my mail server, this has been checked, the problem lies with this email marketing company that clearly do not care enough about customer service to provide either a chat or a phone number for help.

It's expensive and the customer support is terrible.

This app turned all of my shopify customers into subscribers. Illegal. I have no way to un do the damage done to my customer list that took me 6 months to build.

I subscribed paid plan on last Sunday for $100. I requested for a refund as I realized their UI isn't intuitive and they charge way more than other companies and I have not used for a single day. They just send me an email with their policy saying that they will NOT refund the money even after I explained to their support and the time of contact was within 5 mins of subscription. So tell me anyone who do not agree that this is their tactics that they want to suck all the money they can from new eCommerce store owners like me. Their support is poor and their product isn't as high performing like other people saids, and that's why they have no refund policy. If you are new to eCom business owners, I strongly advise you to stay away from Klaviyo, who does not give a dame about their customers or potential customers. They don't give money back for any reason, even if you have rigimate reason and contact you right away. Please don't get the idea of where people use for half of month and asking for a refund. I requested a refund 5 minutes after I realized their plan wouldn't work for my business. Be aware of this company who will suck your money out of you every chance they get. I would highly recommend Omnisend over Klaviyo and I would stop people from using Klaviyo. Amazed by their lack of professionalism and their policy who doesn't give a damn about people. 0 Star for this institute.

I think it's very shady that Klaviyo instantly charges more for additional email recipients beyond your plan level, but that when you clean your list, the plan cost stays at the higher level - unless you dig into the settings and change it back down.
A message should come up when 'Active' users drops below your biling level to ask if you want to lower your plan level. It's clearly to maximise revenue - but in an underhand way.

Completely unreliable software. Sometimes a campaign sends, sometimes it doesn't. Often have to keep repeating setup until it decides to send.
