Your translation in french is awful. The sound also. It's a pity because this training is really interesting.

Hi! Thank you for your feedback and comments. Your observations are very valuable to us and help us continuously improve our users' experience. Thank you for being part of our community!
Compared to other video-learning platforms, Domestika is excellent value if you buy courses individually, especially when the sales are on - which is often. You don't have to prescribe, which is good and I don't want to join anything that charges a monthly fee.
The range and quality of courses is excellent - you can pretty much learn anything - and I love that you can have subtitles and audio in different languages - it really helps if you are trying to learn a craft and also a foreign language. Plus you can change the speed of the audio, which is great. I love Domestika and highly recommend it.
Hola,
Desde Domestika buscamos que la experiencia de la prueba gratuita de Domestika Plus sea totalmente transparente y fácil de gestionar.
Cómo funciona la compra:
- Puedes elegir entre el precio reducido o el precio normal. Con el precio reducido, el propio banner explica que se iniciará una prueba gratuita de 30 días, mostrando el precio exacto que se cobrará si no se cancela la prueba.
- Una vez en la página de pago, los detalles de la suscripción aparecen de nuevo, claramente visibles por encima del curso que se está comprando, para garantizar la transparencia. Si decides no tener la suscripción, lo que es posible en ese momento, puedes eliminarla, y el precio del curso se actualizará a la tarifa normal.
- Las notificaciones se envían al correo electrónico asociado a tu cuenta Domestika durante el periodo de prueba. Puedes cancelar tu renovación Plus antes de que finalice el periodo de prueba desde Perfil ' Suscripciones.
Sobre el cargo que recibiste, parece que la prueba no se canceló antes del periodo estimado, por lo que la suscripción anual se facturó automáticamente.

Equipo Domestika.
They create courses that are actually deceiving trials so you get a surprise charge after.
When you get the course it is not stated clearly it is a trial and all of a sudden you have been deducted $329 from your account and they state they send you emails. I did not get any emails just a charge.
This is so wrong and in addition to not so great reviews of the courses itself. Please people do not even try getting one course or anything from them !!!!

Hi! Our goal is to make every step of the Domestika Plus free-trial clear and easy to manage.
How the purchase works:
- You can choose between the reduced price or the regular price. With the reduced price, the banner itself explains that a 30-day free trial will start, showing the exact price that will be charged if the trial isn’t cancelled.
- Once you move to the checkout page, the subscription details appear again, clearly visible above the course being purchased, to ensure transparency. If you choose not to have the subscription, which is possible at that moment, you can remove it, and the course price will be updated to the regular rate.
- Notifications are sent to the email associated with your Domestika account during your trial period and you can cancel before the trial period ends from Profile › Subscriptions.
About the charge you received, it seems like the trial wasn’t cancelled before the estimated period, so the annual membership was billed automatically.

The translation of my new course is poor. I feel with AI or an English speaking person could improve. My new course is about After Effects and I cant see what the lecturer is clicking as the video quality is very poor & there is nowhere, where I can adjust the quality.
The videos I had the chance to see are more informative and inspiring than transferring detailed know-how. But in the end, if you have enough time, they are worth the money.
THIS IS A SCAM. Domestika having laid out their defence of their cleverly conceived end executed scheme, simply reinforce my claim that it is a scam. For a contract to be legally binding, there must have been a 'MEETING OF THE MINDS' at the point of contract. The fact that so many (thousands?) of us (see the reviews) discovered we had been charged for something we knew nothing about, means that, by impossibility, there can have been no MEETING OF THE MINDS at the point of contract. Therefore, there is no legally-binding contract. Therefore, Domestike had NO CHOSE IN ACTION to deduct monies. Therefore, by continuing their false claim, the executive officers of Domestika, assume full commercial and personal liability for their pre-meditated acts. Time for a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

The courses are inexpensive which allows me to experiment with art and crafts which I wouldn't otherwise.
Of course I'd like more content but I'm not complaining. Perhaps lessons one and two could be integrated as I find them repetitive, minor complaint.
