Yep - like the others, just got scammed into buying a subscription. Very snakey - they make it look like you're paying for a one time use rather than entering a trial period, and then charge your card for a monthly subscription two days later without any notification.... Avoid!

Paid $1 for a one off resizing of an image and ended up being charged a subscription fee. Went to cancel on the site for the "subscription" and they are now trying to charge me x3 $49 which doesn't even make sense because it's only been 2 months (says UNPAID - on 2 invoices on their website, and in my bank I paid the $1 and the $49 which was unknown to me).
SCAM! As all other reviews, tricked into subscribing when advertised as a £1 one off try! Emailed with no customer service skills, daylight robbery!
SCAM! Was told I'd be charged a pound/dollar for one upscaled image and this auto-enrolled me into a 'subscription' at towards £30. This money was stolen and I'm reporting for fraud. I've requested a return of my money but am not hopeful. The bank may reverse payment. AVOID AT ALL COST.

I have been stolen from
I have been stolen from the same as all the other reviews on here. I accessed the change file page through google so paid $1 not realising I had supposedly signed up to some bogus subscription. $49 was taken as pending straight away (so not two days as they said). Any emails to them got a generic computer generated email back. I didn't bother to try and unsubscribe as I didn't believe I was subscribed. I just went through the process of stopping my credit card and having a totally new one issued. Bugger, feel like I got scammed. If I was better at computers I'd try and throw graffiti on their page, hack them back or something ..... I did send a letter to Malta police but nothing in reply.. I emailed netsafe here in NZ and got a good response here is what they found regarding Vecticon....

I will have a go with this - not sure whether it'll work but worth a try.
Good luck and sorry you were scammed too, if you're here you probably were. Best wishes!
And I don't hate these people, I just hate what they're doing and if they're rich and not sharing this wealth with the poor then they will be shown this later when they finish this life.
I just hope that one day in the not too distant future we can live in a world that is more balanced where people do not live scraping/stealing money off people like this. Where we can all have enough money to live and be of service and feel worthy and needed for our skills and talents. LOVE is the only WAY xxxxxxx

Scam
Scam. Hides that it will bill for £26 monthly by direct debit, then issues false password to access your account so you can't cancel it.

Same as everyone else- thought I was…
Same as everyone else- thought I was paying for a one time conversion, but apparently was paying for a 2 day trial, followed by a $30 per months subscription. Emailed them about it, but they refused to issue a refund saying "fine print". Terrible.

These guys scam you out of money
These guys scam you out of money. I did the £1 trial and test an image conversion - fair enough. What they don't tell you is that after 2 days they sign you up for a monthly subscription of £26 per month.
They do send you a "Welcome" email......and at the bottom in very small writing they do say you willl be automatically subscribed. Certainly not clear at all...so AVOID AT ALL COSTS

DO NOT USE THIS!!!
DO NOT USE THIS!!!
I was searching for an AI image enhancing product online and found Vecticon was one of the suggested results on Google. They charged £0.76 to enhance a photo, and as I needed it I paid this.
However, since then I have been charged around £23 a month for a product I do not use. I did not sign up for a subscription and it took me several months to realize as there is no subscription record or email confirmation.
To date, Vecticon have taken £93.47 from me without my consent or approval. I have contacted their customer support, but am not hopeful.
Do yourself a favor and DO NOT USE THIS.

Total scam. Like others, I used their service to enhance an image resolution for )1 and subsequently was charged €29,00/month NO SUBSCRITION DETAILED

Don't use Vecticon. COMPLETE SCAM
Total scam. Like others, I used their service to enhance an image resolution for $1 and subsequently was charged $30/mo until I received an alert from my bank. This had gone on for three months and my bank has told me that since "I signed up for their service" (I never signed up for this, c'mon) they can't do anything. Yep, even though my bank alerted me, they couldn't do anything. Lame.

Yet another mug who fell for the £1 scam
Yet another mug who fell for the £1 to improve the resolution of a jpeg. Only noticed the following day they'd taken £26 for a monthly subscription I didn't want or sign up for. After 3 emails telling them I didn't want to subscribe, immediately cancelled my unwanted subscription after I saw the money taken from me and asking for a refund, they finally "to express their goodwill" refunded the £26.
