Hey Leaith - Thanks so much for the great feedback. Really glad to hear you’re enjoying the platform, especially the ready-to-use VM software and hard-to-find Australian car manuals. We’ve worked hard to ensure the setup is smooth and the coverage is as wide as possible, so it’s great to hear it’s hitting the mark. Thanks again for being part of emanuals.com. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hi Edward, Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few key points. emanuals.com is a membership-based platform, not a pay-per-manual site. This is clearly explained at sign-up and on our pricing page. Your membership gives you full access to over 5 million manuals across vehicles, machinery, appliances, and more. If you’re only after a single manual, we understand that a membership model may not be the right fit, which is why we offer a 3-day free trial to explore the library before committing. In your case, our system shows you’ve already downloaded four manuals. If you’d purchased those individually elsewhere at $32.99 each, you’d have paid over $130. So not only is the membership working as intended, it’s already saved you a significant amount — and that’s exactly what we’re here for. While we do our best to provide coverage across as many makes and models as possible, there are rare cases where a manual isn’t available. When that happens, we’ll always be upfront about it. However, once membership services have been used, including downloads or platform access, our standard refund policy applies. And yes, there are other pay-per manual sites out there. Both platforms serve different types of customers. We appreciate you giving the platform a try, but it’s important to recognise the value received before calling something a scam. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hey Phil, Thanks for leaving your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few key points for you and for anyone reading. You initially signed up for our 3-day free trial, which includes view-only access to our full library. You later upgraded to a full membership, which is when billing begins. This is explained clearly during the upgrade process, along with links to our pricing, trial limitations, and refund policy; none of which are hidden or buried. For the record: • Your welcome email (including account setup details and cancellation instructions) was sent on Nov 18, 2025, 12:59 AM GMT, and opened by you at 8:29 AM GMT that same day. • A follow-up email with your account and login details was sent on Nov 18, 2025, 12:59 AM GMT, and opened at 5:00 AM GMT. • You then set a new password at 5:01 AM GMT, confirming access and use of the account. Your account also shows active usage, including downloads, which is why our standard refund policy applies. As clearly stated, once full membership features are used, such as downloading manuals, viewing PDF manuals, etc refunds are no longer available. Additionally, all users manage their own subscriptions directly from their accounts for security reasons. We provided you with step-by-step guidance when you reached out, and we’re always happy to help further if needed. We understand it can be frustrating when expectations don’t match the service, but we’ve made every effort to be transparent and supportive throughout. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hi Travis, We’d like to clarify a few important details regarding your account and this review. Our records show that no charges were successfully processed on your account. You attempted to upgrade to a paid membership by selecting the monthly plan, but the transaction failed due to insufficient funds. As a result, your account was never activated as a full membership, and no payment was taken. You signed up using an email that does not match the one you used to contact us, which may be causing further confusion. For security reasons, our team asked you to confirm whether the address on file was yours. We have to protect user data and cannot release account details without proper verification. Also, to set expectations clearly for others reading: the 3-day trial provides view-only access to PDF manuals. Downloads are only available to paid members, and this is made clear throughout the sign-up process. We’re always happy to help if you need support accessing your account or understanding how the service works, but there were no charges, no active membership, and no scam involved here. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hey Sophie, Thanks for taking the time to leave a detailed review. We’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed, but we want to clarify a few key points. First, emanuals.com is a membership-based platform, not a per-manual sales site. When you signed up, you began a 3-day free trial, which provided view-only access to PDF manuals. You then chose to upgrade to a monthly membership, which ended the free trial and unlocked full-member features, including downloads. As part of this, you successfully downloaded a Ford manual, confirming usage of the service. Regarding cancellation: as stated clearly on our website and during sign-up, when a subscription is cancelled, access ends immediately. This isn’t a hidden policy - it’s communicated during the cancellation flow and outlined in our terms. Since our platform provides instant access to digital content, cancelling a membership is not the same as letting it “run its course” like physical subscriptions. This is common on digital marketplaces that deal with licensed, non-returnable content. Our system works this way because once a member accesses or downloads licensed manuals, we are contractually required to compensate the content providers, regardless of whether all available downloads are used. That’s why refunds are not offered once access has been granted, as explained to you via support and in our published refund policy. We also work with third-party publishers and libraries that include millions of manuals. While we strive to offer wide coverage, no platform can guarantee 100% of all makes, models, or years, especially for niche or uncommon variants. We are always happy to help locate alternatives if more details are provided. We understand that digital subscriptions aren’t for everyone. But we’ve designed our service to be transparent, cost-effective, and flexible, with clear terms at every stage. If there’s anything else we can help with, we’re here. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hi Kurt, Thanks for taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback. We’re really glad to have had you with us for the past two years, and that the platform has served you well across everything from bikes to dozers. You’re right — while we cover millions of manuals, there are still a few gaps, especially with certain legacy models like the Caterpillar D6B or some Hino variants. We’re always working to expand our coverage and can often source additional material on request. Feel free to reach out anytime. Thanks again for being part of emanuals.com. Thanks, emanuals.com

Hey Randy, Thank you so much for the fantastic review. It means a lot to hear from long-term members who truly get the value of the platform. We’re glad the manuals have saved you time, money, and stress, and that you’ve had a great experience with our team along the way. You’re exactly the kind of member we built this for, and we’re grateful to have you with us. Thanks again for being part of emanuals.com.

Hey Stylers, We understand your frustration, but your review contains several incorrect assumptions that we’d like to clarify - both for you and for others reading. First, emanuals.com is not a scam, and our 3-day free trial is genuine. It offers view-only access to millions of PDF manuals, without download access, as clearly stated at sign-up and on our pricing page. Like most digital services, starting a trial requires a valid payment method. This is standard practice across the industry to prevent abuse, and the $1 pre-authorisation is automatically and instantly refunded. We do not currently use PayPal due to integration constraints with our subscription management system, but this is expected to change in February 2026. All payments are handled securely through Stripe, one of the most trusted and widely used payment processors worldwide. We do not store or process your card information directly, and we never charge users who cancel within the trial window. Your reference to “ITVibe Inc.” is due to our parent company’s web infrastructure provider and is not unusual for businesses that license technology platforms. It has no bearing on our legitimacy. As for Reviews.io — it’s a verified third-party platform used by thousands of trusted brands. Unlike open review boards, it ensures that only real, paying customers can leave feedback. Finally, we do not use bots for our responses. Our support team is real, based in the US, and responds to thousands of users every week. If you’re unsure or need help, we’re always happy to provide direct assistance. But we encourage anyone reading to base their decision on facts, not assumptions. Thanks, emanuals.com
