getcloudapp.com and cl.ly are scammers

For a long time I used the cl.ly service which, through the free Windows program FluffyApp, let me take a screenshot of any part of the screen, upload it to the internet automatically and put a link to it on the clipboard. In the settings you could see how many views it had and various other details. One day I received an email saying that the free version would be limited to 10 drops (uploads) per month. I looked for a replacement, but back then I found nothing. So I paid for the rain plan at 10 USD a month.

I chose monthly billing because I thought it would not last long. I wanted to build a similar service and app myself. I would never have dreamed that it would be a deal with the devil – the kind you can never get out of. On October 15 I blocked 3D Secure on my account so that they could not charge me anything more. Then I wanted to settle it amicably with them, and on one of their hidden-away pages I found that I could only cancel the service by phone, on a number that “ends” in the USA (+1).

I sent all my details except the password to my cousin, who speaks excellent English and Czech. She called them, but they brushed her off: even though she knew everything, she was not the owner, because I had stated that I am a man and the caller was someone with a female voice. Anyway, they are welcome to delete the account or do whatever they want with it, there is nothing but junk in it. The emails they sent me:

Yes, you are seeing that right. I am getting messages from an automated system, from support, even from the CEO. And in the end they offer me a monthly plan of just 4 USD instead of 10 USD. I still do not want it. Never again anything from them, this is not how a reputable company behaves.
