Zero usage, zero emails, $425 in charges
Charged $425 for 4 years on an account I never used
I discovered that Lucidchart has been charging my credit card annually since 2021 — for an account tied to an old work email that no longer exists. I left that company in 2023 and have had no way to access the account, receive emails, or cancel.
Their own records will show zero activity since May 2022. Nothing created, nothing opened, nothing used. Yet they kept charging me year after year.
How? My credit card company automatically updated my card details through Visa's Account Updater service — so even when my card was reissued multiple times, Lucidchart kept billing me silently.
When I contacted support requesting a refund, I received a generic template response pointing me to their "no-refund policy." No acknowledgment of the circumstances. No human review.
Apparently their policy is: if you can't access your account and can't receive their emails, that's your problem — they'll keep charging you forever.
Buyer beware. If you sign up, know that cancelling may be impossible if you ever lose access to your email, and they will not refund you regardless of the circumstances.
