there is a huge ongoing bug on grammarly where humanizer literally skips the whole paragraphs and move onto another one, without making any changes to it, I'm going to explode soon, and if they don't fix it, also unsubscribe.

Don't fall into the free trial trap
Grammarly is good only for checking your spelling and grammar. If you are trying to use it for any of the other AI features, you will be disappointed. It suggested changes due to "AI detection" and then after making those changes, it suggested I use the original wording. They also bank on you not recognizing subscription reminder emails and do not offer any refund for any reason unless you find a legal one. They are just trying to trick people into paying money.
I wish I had viewed the TP reviews on this company before I tried their trial offer. Like other purchasers, I was advised I would be sent a warning that the trial was about to expire. This did not happen. Instead, I just had £120 deducted from my credit card account. Be warned. I only used their app.once.
Whole concept is nothing but an illegal scam to get money. Trial stated that would be notified prior to getting charged. No notification sent. So, I was charged for a year. If they need money so badly, rob a bank!

Are they taking advantage of school kids to make a profit?
I have a $65 charge on my credit card for Grammarly. My daughter apparently uses it. She is a minor so cannot provide me with any answers on the amount, the subscription, the commitment period etc. I can find nothing on their website. I cannot speak to anyone which may clear this up in the meantime. So I write a long explanation and have not yet heard back. I certainly did not authorize this. Does this company dupe minors into paying for things that they may not need and certainly do not understand the financial commitment for? I await a response from their customer service.

Constructive Feedback for Grammarly
Constructive Feedback for Grammarly
I believe that Grammarly remains one of the most technically competent writing assistants available and has come a long way since it's launch years ago. Its core functionality is solid, and its accuracy continues to be somewhat reliable.
However, I have noticed that the user experience has shifted.
Frequent interruptions tied to credit limits and rewrite quotas disrupt writing momentum. For a tool designed to support cognitive flow, these mid-sentence prompts feel counterproductive.
Monetisation is understandable. Disrupting continuity is not and it increasingly feels like the product is shifting towards the enterprise user and not individual subscribers.
Writers value immersion. When that immersion is repeatedly interrupted by upgrade prompts, the overall experience begins to feel transactional rather than supportive.
The platform’s long-term strength IMO, lies in trust and seamless assistance. Preserving flow should be prioritized over aggressive conversion tactics.
Grammarly won't remain a strong product or be every consumers keyboard of choice of they continue to hold you to ransom mid sentence formation, But restraint in its monetisation approach would significantly improve the user experience as it should be th case.
Grammarly usually works fine, but the AI suggestions are awful and get in the way. Lately, the correction feature has also been awful. When Grammarly suggests I add punctuation to a sentence and I agree/click "accept", it almost always puts the punctuation in the incorrect spot, which triggers Grammarly again. It is super annoying, and I save more time without it to be honest.
I have been a free access Grammer user for over 6 years. This week I thought I would try their full service, including AI.
As I signed up for the free trial I was told by their AI system I would receive 2 days notice before the trial would end. How about no notice because that's what I got before Grammerly attempted to take £52 from my bank account.
Here's the trick. I used one of my bank account that never has money it. I only transfer cash in when I know a debit card payment is due.
Grammerly never gave me the two days notice for either cancelling or continue after the free trial, as promised, so they are in breach of a legal agreement. Not that would bother them. They are a typical big American company. They've adopted the Trump principles. We can do whatever we like.

Honestly, I'm so frustrated! I've used Grammarly for a few months now and every four weeks or so it just loses my work! There's been a new layout set up so it's simply lost work I've been working on for three days now! Fuming! And now it's decided to go onto any document I'm typing and put in suggestive corrections when I haven't asked it to which is really distracting when I'm trying to write something like this. Hate it so far, glad I haven't paid for the full one.
I'm really thankful for Grammarly. It helped me turn my resume into a PDF and made the whole process simple and accessible. Since i don't have Microsoft Word, being able to create and export my resume online was incredibly helpful
I was paying £51 a quarter, and the product would not work on Google Docs or Slides, the desktop version constantly broke. The product is worth £0 as you will zero insight from it. Use Chat GPT, it's free and actually works.
This tool has been very helpful for all kinds of writing tasks. Even the free features offer a lot of value. and make the whole experience really convenient. I often use it for my school writing assignments, and it saves me a lot of time. I would definitely recommend giving it a try if you need a support with writing!!!
I signed up for an annual subscription and did not end up using the subscription at all four months later I cancelled the subscription and requested a refund or even a partial refund for the eight months that I left that I will not be using the Service instead of providing even a partial refund, Grammarly said that the subscription is cancelled and they are keeping the full annual subscription fee that I have paid and and I will not be using. This is complete unethical operations from a company and I would advise anyone even slightly considering the annual subscription with this company to reconsider.
I WAS SO GRATEFUL FOR GRAMMARLY. THEY HELPED ME TO BUILD A RESUME FROM TEXT TO PDF. THEY SAVED MY LIFE! IT'S THE ONLY PLACE ON THE INTERNET TO DO THIS AS YOU EXPORT. I DO NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO PAY FOR MICROSOFT WORD ON MY COMPUTER. SO I AM GRATEFUL FOR THEM TO ALLOW ME TO USE THEIR PRODUCTS AND TO EXPORT TO A PDF WHERE I CAN SHARE THE FILE TO A BUSINESS AND USE MY RESUME I CREATED IN A JOURNAL WEBSITE FIRST. THANK YOU!
Fake advertising. When googling AI Humaniser, the first promotional content is grammarly with a title that says "Free AI Humaniser", but after signing up and trying it out, it's not free. It only shows a blurry result that i then can unlock by upgrading to a pro subscription.
I have used Grammarly for a few years now, and I have been absolutely thrilled with the program's accuracy. I am also quite happy with the Beta program, which corrects my grammatical and phrasing errors. I thoroughly and highly recommend Grammarly to everyone.
I'm an aspiring author, and I use Grammarly to help keep my stories free of errors. While it can be useful for this, it is also very irritating at times. The constant pop-ups can be distracting, and the app doesn't understand context, so it will give suggestions that obviously won't work or are pointless. I find myself rejecting 80% of Grammarly's suggestions because of this.
Grammarly is useful, but it needs some serious work before it's worth $140/year.
