Punchbowl

Nice try, Punchbowl!

Massive headache, scam to get you locked in so you need to purchase big package! Definitely do NOT recommend. Was advertised as "free". Spent a week making my own beautiful invitation to upload, building a guest list, decorating the digital envelope, etc. All this was great & I was really excited about this process. Went to send invitations & my excitement hit a brick wall. Website said I had to sign up for paid package to start 7 day free trial. 7 days is not enough time between sending invites & finishing the party, so ok, I rallied & signed up for basic package at $50(cdn). Number of invitations going out was well under the maximum for that package so no problem. But when I added a few more (still under max) it offered to sell me a package again. Online help, said I was over the limit because max included outgoing invitations AS WELL AS the number of people attending. So 1 invite per family meant all 4 of the attending family members toward the total. Again, excitement hitting brick wall – super disappointing to have come this far only to have progress blocked. Again. They encouraged me to package up. I replied that I understood, but “what a scam” and that I would be asking for my package subscription to be refunded. Upon being called out as “scam”, they promptly cancelled my 7 day trial… which meant I was blocked from accessing the invitation. The website sends the invites by email & when the invited click on the envelope, it takes them to the website to show the invitation & track their response. Since I no longer had an account, the attendees could no longer access the the details of the party. Thankfully I had already copied & pasted the invitation pictures & information, & I was tracking outgoing invites & responses in a spreadsheet, so I was able to follow up with everyone with a simple email & no harm done, but… nice try, Punchbowl!
