Verified ReviewerE-Fax Broken Web Site / Broken Fax System
As a long time user of e-Fax I can't express how disappointing it is to have to write a negative review, but based on their performance over the past year I can no longer hold back as they seem to have multiple systems that are broken, and they only want to blame others for their failures.
As an accountant I'm required to send faxes to the IRS in order to represent clients. This requirement for a working fax is immediate as the representative and the accountant are on the phone LIVE, and awaiting the fax to confirm authenticity of the request and authorization of the limited power of attorney.
For the last year, e-Fax has been unable to deliver faxes in a timely manner, and today it took 43 minutes and 52 minutes respectively for two separate faxes to be received by the IRS and for me to receive a confirmation. (By then, the IRS representative had to hang up. By the way the faxes were sent via a fax machine on a third phone call to the IRS, and the fax went right through with no delay what-so-ever, so it seems very likely that the e-Fax system was causing the issue.
This failure of e-Fax to send faxes in a timely manner is a breach of contract as that's the only reason I pay them a hefty fee on a yearly basis.
Not only are faxes not going through, but the cancellation feature is NOT working on their website. When you click on cancel my account, you get a pop up to contact customer service. Not only that, but once they have your credit card there is no way to delete it or change it as their system locks you out of your account information.
This company is on the *** of becoming a SCAM..., I highly recommend that you find another company if you're looking for a reliable online fax provider, I know that I will be searching for another provider starting today!

Verified ReviewerUnethical Billing Practices
Rip-off - no cancel allowed online without going through an agent, no billing notice, no cancel processing, and no refunds for future periods. Just cancelled with eFax, a Consensus Cloud Computing brand.
Service works ok when needed; I haven't used in almost 2 years. Last December the renewal increased to $50/year minimum, so in January when I got credit card bill I cancelled online. then, I was looking at my CC account online yesterday, I saw that another $50 charge came through for 12/10/21-12/9/22. I went to efax site, logged in, saw it was active, hit "cancel" button and the web response was "this account may not be cancelled online, you must either call or start live chat."
I initiated a chat.
After back and forth on what I wanted (cancel and refund of recent charge), the agent asked me to provide proof that I had cancelled last year. Without this, they would not credit the $50 or even $48 for remaining 50 weeks. I searched my email, nothing from eFax in over a year. No cancel notice from last year, no billing notices in any of recent years.
I mentioned I would put dispute on CC charge on my account, and post unfavorable reviews online and with Consumer Agencies - it didn't matter. Over the last 3 years, the account that I signed up for a free trial (at the time $15/year) has cost me $115 and I have sent two faxes of a couple pages each, last in 2020. Even now, I have no confirmation email, but I made sure to save the chat record. Consumers shouldn't have to worry about things like this, but I fully expect a charge next year from this unethical outfit.
It's a shame, as the product itself, while overpriced for me, works fine.
I wonder how they stay in business if they need to bilk the consumer this way. Stay Clear!!!!!
