Carvia Reviews 

Scam company. Numerous unauthorized charges to my card. Canceling via chat doesn’t seem to help.

This is a scam. Donot go near this company or app. I would give this company zero if it was available. This company should not be on any App Store. I was charged 3.99. I cancelled subscription but was charged 29.99 today. I never opened the app but their answering machine told me that i have been using it continuosly. Total scam

This company is an absolute scam. Its products should not be listed on the Apple store but they are. I bought their car player app and have so far been charged 4 times in different amounts. This is clearly nothing more than a scam masquerading as a legitimate product.

Scam!!!
It doesn’t allow you to cancel and will try to change you $29.99 for a subscription that doesn’t work.

This is a SCAM.
6.99 at first then unauthorized 29.99 a week later - and there is NO APP, it will not work/doesn’t exist.
Do not fall for this scam. Call your bank immediately if you signed up.
Fraudulent Charges come from crply.com

Absolutely a Scam. Charged an extra $45.99 with no clear explanation, only to find out their product doesn't even support my vehicle. Customer service is nothing but AI-generated responses, and getting help or a refund is a nightmare.

Completely misleading experience. Save your money and avoid this company, Do NOT even go on their site!!

Dreadful company! I paid £3.99 for the app, then I read the reviews, I deleted the app straight away, didn’t even sign up on it. Today I’ve just had £29.99 taken from my bank from them. Do not fall for it!

Thought I was purchasing an App for 3.99 and then my bank declined them trying to take 29.99 out of my account. Live and learn people. The app I purchased didn't even do what I thought it was going to do. AVOID THIS COMPANY!

Keep well clear of these people con merchants!! Charged me £19.99 with out authorisation!

Total scam and will remove money from your account without your consent.

Avoid at all costs (app doesn't work!)

BEWARE! SCAM COMPANY!!!
This company pretends to be CarPlay and pretends to offer dashboard widgets (snagged me with a halloween themed widget for $6.99). After purchase you do NOT get access to any widgets AND they immediately start charging your card over and over. After my $6.99 purchase they instantly tried to charge $19.99, then the next day they tried $29.99 and $14.99. Thankfully, Capital One is on top of fraud and stopped all the additional attempts, but I did have to cancel my card and get a new one.
NOTE** CarPlay is FREE and comes with your iphone and NEVER has fees!!! This company crplyr.com is NOT CarPlay and is NOT associated with CarPlay.
CRPLYR is a Scamscription company!

DO NOT PURCHASE. This is a Scamscription, basically you purchase one thing and then several payments are then taken days later without your consent. Message to Carvia, please dont bother replying to this review with an apology and for me to contact you to resolve, we both know that you are not going to refund the monies paid!!!

Awful rip off merchants. Have taken £29.99 of my card without my approval or consent.
Do not give them your card details it is a scam.

Absolute scam

Please please PLEASE, do not purchase anything from this site. They are a massive scam. You will be offered something at a low price like £3.99 then they will immediately start taking larger payments. I was offered a discounted purchase of £3.99 which I paid and then 2 payments of £19.99 followed without my consent. I contacted the support team basically saying yes you’ve been scammed we won’t be helping you. You are also enter into a subscription which will charge you around £30 a month. Luckily my bank has sorted it out. Vermin!
Emailed several times as they seem to state on all the negative feedback to be told they have taken the money lawfully and there’s no chance of a refund.

Betrug
Die App versucht täglich 15-20 Euro als Abo abzubuchen.

I would give this company zero stars if Trustpilot allowed it. One star is already too generous.

I believed I was agreeing to a $6.99 purchase. Within moments, my credit card was charged $6.99, $27.99 and another $27.99, for a total of $62.97.

I did not knowingly authorize two additional $27.99 charges.

What makes this even worse is that I never downloaded an app, there is no Carvia purchase in my Apple purchase history, there is no Carvia subscription through Apple, and I have not used the service at all. I still have not been given a clear explanation of what I actually received for the original $6.99, never mind the two additional charges.

I cancelled immediately. Even the cancellation process repeatedly tried to keep me subscribed by first offering me a 50% discount and then a 75% discount before finally allowing me to cancel.

I then contacted the company and asked for a refund. They refused and told me the charges were covered by their terms and “fine print.” I specifically asked them to provide:

* the exact checkout screen I was shown,
* the amounts displayed before payment,
* proof showing where I agreed to each separate $27.99 charge,
* the date and time of those authorizations,
* and an itemized explanation of what each charge was for.

They did not provide that evidence.

Instead, they simply repeated that the prices and terms were shown at checkout and had to be accepted. They then told me that they keep a “complete record” of the purchase and would provide it if my bank requests it — yet they would not provide that same record to me, the actual cardholder, when I asked for it directly.

Their responses are also inconsistent. At one point they referred to the charges as “promotional add-ons” and “trial charges,” and later they spoke vaguely about “the original charge” in the singular, even though there were three separate charges within moments of one another.

After reading other reviews here, I also find their repeated public responses saying they are “genuinely sorry” and want to “work toward a resolution” very hard to take seriously. In my experience, when I actually contacted them, they refused the refund, relied on “fine print,” and told me their decision was final. Those public replies feel like canned damage control rather than genuine customer care.

A customer should know exactly how much they are agreeing to pay before their card is charged. They should not discover multiple additional charges afterward and then be told those charges were buried in terms they supposedly accepted.

Based on my experience, this feels extremely deceptive and scam-like. I am now disputing the charges through RBC/Visa, and I am keeping all screenshots and correspondence.

I would strongly caution anyone considering this service before entering their credit card information.

A total scam. You don't get anything, and I was double-charged immediately after downloading the app. Beware of this app.

I wanted to purchase the €6.99 subscription. However, immediately after the purchase, I was charged an additional €19.99 twice — a total of €39.98 in extra charges.

I did not knowingly intend to purchase these two additional products. I contacted customer support immediately and requested a refund, but my request was denied.

The company claims that I accepted two promotional offers, but they have not provided me with evidence showing that I clearly and knowingly authorized each of the two €19.99 purchases.

I find the payment process very unclear and believe the additional paid offers and their prices should have been presented much more transparently before charging customers.

Be very careful when making a purchase, as additional charges may appear immediately after the initial payment.

I clicked on an advertisement offering CarPlay widgets for €3.99 and intended to purchase that offer.
Instead, my card was charged THREE times by the same merchant: €3.99 + €19.99 + €19.99, for a total of €43.97.
I contacted customer support immediately. They cancelled the subscription and confirmed that there would be no further charges, but refused to refund the two additional €19.99 charges, claiming that I had accepted one or two “one-time promotional offers” during the sign-up process.
I specifically asked them to provide evidence of my explicit authorization for EACH of the two €19.99 purchases. Instead of providing that evidence, they simply repeated that promotional purchases were non-refundable according to their terms.
I expected to spend €3.99. I ended up being charged €43.97.
I have screenshots of the original offer, all three card charges and the complete correspondence with customer support.
Based on my experience, I strongly recommend checking every screen and every amount extremely carefully before confirming anything on this website.

Another update: I had to cancel my debit card. Then, they tried to start charging the replacement.
The company behind this is Applisan. They are known for being a fraudulent entity.

Update: I stand by my review. This is a front for a fraudulent organization. I’m going to report them to the FBI’s site for cyber crimes. Please do so, as well.
