GoodNovel Customer Insights

1. However the continued request to purchase more coins and the length of chapters being so short, it makes reading 1 book way to expensive and by the time your done reading a book you would have paid nearly $100.

2. It's way to expensive and not financially convenient.It has got great books and I really love the book am reading, just don't like the fact I can't access it due to the coins.

3. Using 22 coins a chapter, you can end up spending a lot of money to read a book.

4. 😑 I feel like this app would be better if you could earn more points more easily or pay a set amount for each book instead of chapters at a time, which gets expensive.DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.

5. If you don't buy credits, you can play 3 sets of ads to unlock 2 free chapters per book a day as well as the ads on the Earn Rewards page.

6. Forget about trying to save them, they expire! So you have no choice but to spend money if you want to read more than 2 chapters at a time.

7. It's cheaper to buy a book in hardback than read a full story on this app.Don't waste your time unless you find a REALLY good book.

8. Save your money and find an app that you do not need to spend hundreds of dollars to read the book.

9. I may just finish the book I'm reading and move on to another app.Overall, some very good books that can hook you in.

10. It barely gives you a chance to earned free credit that only allows 2 chapters of reading.

11. I wish I could just find a book and read it--FOR FREE.

  • You keep overcharging me. I will seek legal action if not refunded. $9.99 is not $19.99. You have done this several times. Why can't a reader buy the book all at once instead of your costly chapters?

  • I have been reading When He Woke Up and was 63% complete. This morning I decided to read for a little while and when I opened the book I was at page 1 chapter 1. I started scrolling thru the pages trying to get back to where I was and when I got to chapter 8 it wanted more money. I have spent a fortune just trying to read the book and now can't get to where I was unless I pay for what I have already read. If I don't get to go back to where I was I will file a dispute with my credit card company and get every dime back. This is wrong.

  • I recently discovered Good Novel through a Facebook ad, I clicked on a link and was brought to a website to continue reading the sample and once I got to the end of the sample there were two buttons- a small link that stated “all chapters are free” and a larger one that said “continue reading”. I clicked on the smaller link thinking that since I would be new to the app I was getting a small welcome bonus of getting this particular novel completely unlocked. That’s not the case. When you advertise something like “all chapters free” I don’t anticipate that I’m going to have to buy coins and earn bonuses to continue reading a book I’m very much interested in completing!!

I am still not finished reading when his eyes opened and am very upset and frustrated. This is such a scam and rip off. I want my money back. I don’t pay this much for a hard copy of a book!

  • I have purchased coins 2… There is no way, I can go through on those coins in 1 sitting… And the 2nd time I purchased coins, I was told I would get extra bonus coins which I never received… There is truly no reason to get greedy and scam ppl out of their money… Everytime we log into your app/ website to read a novel you guys get some sort of compensation… (Be Fair)!!! Also, start showing the amount of coins each chapter cost… Because when I don’t have coins chapters cost 11-16 coins… The way my coins were depleted when I bought coins it seemed the chapters were costing 20-40 coins a chapter… This is not cool (I would like to have my free 200 bonus coins, I never received thank you)… I would hate to have to stop engaging in these stories… Being fair, and upright is always better…

  • I have been reading "The Charismatic Charlie Wade" using the GoodNovel App. I have spent more money reading this book than I have ever paid for a book in my life.... I have just been addicted to this story. However, my problem is that many of the chapters seem to have an error in the margins, which extend outside of the viewing area of my screen. Even when I shrink the text to as small as possible, many sentences are just incomplete and makes it nearly impossible to comprehend exactly what is happening. As an example, I am in Chapter 2471. Several of the chapters before this and after have some lines of text that extend past the right side of my viewing area. Apparently the app does not allow me to rotate the screen so I can at least pick up more of the missing words.

    If this continues, I am just going to give up reading this book which I am only about 48% finished reading, because I am beginning to feel lost. Is this an issue the author must fix or GoodNovel. Please let me know. I've easily spent over $100 so far.

  • I have been reading and paying for several books on your website.

    The following list are books that abruptly ended in the middle of the story/book, saying I have completed the book, when I haven't.

    1. IMPRISONED WIFE OF MR. BAXTER

    2. THE DIVORCED BILLIONAIR HEIRESS

    3. THE DESERTED WIFE

    4. WARNING: MY MOMMY IS A SAVAGE!

    5. THE YOUNG WIFE IS PREGNANT PAMPERED

    6. IN THE COMPANY OF KILLERS

    I have spent money and time reading these unfinished novels.

    How do I get the rest of the stories so I can finish the books? It's not OK to leave your readers hanging like that.

  • I started reading novel When His Eyes Opened for free and now I have been charged almost $45 and I am only half way through the book. Not only that, every time I go to the App another book starts that I did not order but feel quite sure that I am being charged for it. There are now 6 books sitting in my library that I did not order. How can you just start putting them in my account and charging me for them when I didn't request them. I could have bought several books for the $45 charge (which is BS I might just add) just to try to finish one. This should not ever be allowed to happen. I want to finish the one book I started but I will definitely not be ordering any more and for the frustration you have caused me I believe that you should let me finish the novel When His Eyes Opened and refund my money since you charged $30.26 in 2 days! What a rip off!!

It has over 1500 chapters and now I’m stuck on waiting for it to end after I spent that much money. It’s a scam!! You maybe able to get away with it for awhile but more and more people know what’s going on and will not continue paying those ridiculous prices for a book
