Tamara Levitt ruins a lot!I like Calm. From sleep stories to breathing exercises.But Tamara Levitt almost got me to resign. What has she swallowed?She has a voice that is no less than off putting. And fake.. Don’t know if she is trying to be very”meditative”but it’s not working. Shame really,honestly I think Calm would be so much better without that awful voice(sorry,it’s just too much!)When I listen to her I feel like this:🤢 Honest truth.The rest though👌🏾
I listened to the promo for Calms read me to sleep option. The background music is WAY TOO loud. I don’t see the need for background music at all, but if you insist on adding it, it shouldn’t drown out the speaker! I’d consider joining if there was an option to simply READ to me.
The Calm app in a meditation app , they have a law suite against them for sharing customers info , more importantly they give you a free trail then charge you 100 bucks a year , if you don’t like it you can get a refund with in 30 days , the make it really difficult to find how to get that refund to so just give up , but they know you want to leave so the price gets lower to stay with them , offering you 60 , then 50 , then 40 dollars to stay with them , you get so tired of trying to navigate the web site you tend to give in and accept a lower price , in the end there is another easier option ,in order to keep your money with out keeping a subscription they make it easier to ( End) not opt of of the subscription this is easier but it’s set up so it’s an easier option to get out of it but they won’t defund you , so I did that , simply to cancel it and get your money back they don’t make it easy , it boarders on a scam , the point is they try and get some money out of you through the way there lawyers have set up the wording.They are disgusting business people , you can get there stuff free anywhere in truth
The app is fine, the programme is good BUT, a HUGE "BUT".Voice of the main instructor, Tamara, is unbearable. I tried to find programmes by John, Jeff and others. Not much luck- 80% of them are by Tamara and Tamara only. I like Calm's content and concept.... and I WOULD RENEW my premium subscription if there was an alternative to Tamara. But there isn't. And her crackly, exaggerated vocal fry makes me want to pull my hair out and bang my head on a wall - rather than Calming me down and focus on regaining mindfulness and inner peace. Do something Calm, or lose customers and business.
Had much success with the app, however, this is one of those businesses where it is literally impossible to get help with an issue. (It runs on my ipad but not iphone) They loads of articles to read, like we have time, and an AI chatbot that will take in all your information after several minutes, then say "something went wrong" so no resolution. You cannot get help from Calm.com, beware.
I just got 7 day trial I was hoping it would help me sleep. I spent an hr tiring to find something that did not irritate me. like the voice of the sleep coach/DR. I live in the mountains so rain wind ect. all the time for free. apparently they dont work for me so if you are looking for magic it aint here
I would give this thieving company zero stars if I could. I subscribed to this scam app last year and paid the subscription. It never worked and kept asking me to pay for a subscription. My profile showed I did not have a subscription despite having paid. Today Calm have stolen £39.99 from my account on sone sort of renewal and it still shows I have no subscriptionI do not want one I simply want my money backSteer well clear of this no wonder the trust pilot reviews are 1.6 I don’t think I’ve seen anything lower.
The Calm app was disappointing at best. I doubt they have the interest of users front off mind. The app is clunky and they are forever asking you to recommend the app to a friend (not very calming). Try other apps and websites, I'm sure you'll find a better user experience to help with your head space.
