Verified Reviewer |Can't log in. Already paid subscription
No human. Just a message to email my issue.
No actual customer support.
They took my money but system won't let me in. Don't recommend this program for others.
I bought a new subscription for six months. Then I tried to use it and all you wanted is a new subscription
You can respond in an appropriate time. You could have an agent that could help by talking to them on the telephone.
All you wanted to do is get a new subscription, even though I had just paid hours before for a six months subscription. No way to talk to somebody to help clear it up. I still not have heard from you except try this. It did not work.
I called Paypal to cancel the payment. It was from the day before, and they will take care of it.
You really need to have a phone number that a person can talk to a real person. Your phone number is deleted that was available.
User's recommendation: Find a different company for learning a new language. This one may be good, but they do not care about customer service.
Cannot log in
I can't log in, and I am not getting any help from you guys. My password has not been accepted, so the system is not allowing me to use your product.
Can someone please help me? Thank you.
- Pros are it sounds great to learn a new language
- I cannot get into the system after i have paid for it
Preferred solution: What would like to be able to log in. My email is Littleman69@sbcglobal.net you guys accepted my payment for my lifetime subscription, but will not allow me access to my account.

Can't connect to babbel
I get a message that says 'can't connect to Babbel, try again.' I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. Still, the same message.
Your customer service is awful. You cannot talk to a human being to your computers. It takes over a day to get response. I’ve asked for a refund since I only had for one day and you kept asking me for
The customer service is awful. You cannot talk to a human being.
Your telephone number has been canceled. I bought a subscription. When I started using it, you kept asking for a subscription which I already paid for. I tried to contact you for information but only received a computer response.
Very poor.
Ive asked for a refund since it was only one or two days since I bought six months of Babel, I will go to another company that will respond to the needs of its people. Charles Swanson.

Verified ReviewerI signed up and paid for a lifetime subscription. I have not used it for a year. And the company does not recognize my subscription although I have receipts. They have not returned my call.
Same as above I signed up and paid for a lifetime subscription. I have not used the service for one year.
Ive tried to contact the company but got no response. I have the paid invoice in my email file.
Refund impossible to contact. I use the chat bot and never got a reply.
The company appears to suck. I was charged twice for my subscription.
I tried to get a hold of the company to get one of the charges taken off. I use the chat and never got a reply. I will keep working on this possibly resorting to legal action if I dont get some sort of way to talk to someone at the company and get a resolution of this. it says I have to write at least 100 symbols.
Im not sure why as Ive been succinct in the message as to whats going on.
My phone number is 269-352-****. Please call me I carry my phone most all the time.
User's recommendation: Don’t use this company.
Cancel subscription
They keep charging me after I canceled. You cant reach out to them with a dedicated phone line. I keep getting periodic charges
User's recommendation: Do not subscribe
Cancelled subscription
Nothing happened; I just got a recording. I would like to cancel my subscription, please. My card was charged 96 dollars today; I no longer need the subscription.

Charge for canceled subscription
I purchased a Babbel sub.in 2023 and cancelled in 2024.. but somehow I have been charged today.Oct 2025.It is impossible to find a real customer service,help chat is hopeless.
The POTENTIAL customer service is non existent.Attempying to a speak to a service rep is impossible. Be handed from computer to computer is not my idea od customer service. Real people real service.
I wanted to BUY the service from Babbel, however because of not being able to speak to a live person who could answer my question, they lost a customer. They could do a lot better if they hired live people to assist first time buyers. Whatever a uccess B a bbel is having their success rate would improve with live personnel
Need help accessing lifetime account
Had the problem described below.
However Babbel has emailed me and we have resolved the issue.
I did have to search my invoices for
proof of payment over one year ago to get my account back open.
Original issue:
I have been trying to access my lifetime account for the last 45 minutes. I tried calling and no ringing happens.
I received the access code and still nothing happens. Tried to call directly cannot get a ringtone.
All I want is to reset my password and use my account which I have not used in over a year. My name is Kathy R.
User's recommendation: Keep your invoice payments handy. they aren’t going to help you find your membership without it.
