High-risk subscription service linked to disputed charges and cancellation problems
Read Verse presents “Get Started” and “Sign Up” calls to action, while two independent customer complaints describe an unwanted or disputed subscription charge and difficulty cancelling. The captured pages also show blank company-registration fields and no direct contact email, making the operator difficult to identify or reach. These customer-safety concerns outweigh the clean connection and browsing checks.

Investigation Brief
Read Verse presents “Get Started” and “Sign Up” calls to action, while two independent customer complaints describe an unwanted or disputed subscription charge and difficulty cancelling. The captured pages also show blank company-registration fields and no direct contact email, making the operator difficult to identify or reach. These customer-safety concerns outweigh the clean connection and browsing checks.
Serious billing and cancellation complaints
One complainant says cancelling was made impossible, while another says Read Verse created and charged a subscription they had never signed up for. The second complainant also says support responded with a template asserting that the required clicks and acceptance had occurred.
The site displays “Get Started” and “Sign Up” controls, but the available page evidence does not disclose what appears after those controls are selected. The complaints therefore provide the strongest evidence of the reported subscription outcome.
Weak operator transparency despite clean basic checks
No direct contact email was found on the captured page, and two captured locations show “Company registration number:” without an accompanying number. This leaves important operator and contact information undisclosed in the reviewed material.
The saved TLS test found a valid encrypted connection, and the current browsing check returned no threat warning. However, a stale saved observation also records two antivirus results marking the URL suspicious; its timing should be confirmed. These technical checks do not resolve the billing and cancellation concerns.
Why the score is 28
One customer complaint on a public review site: "DO NOT ! Subscribe to these scamming lunatics! These thieves take your money, make it impossible to cancel subscription!". Coverage remains separate so missing sources cannot be mistaken for clean results.

If this is a scam — what it means for you
What a visitor may encounter
A visitor can begin through the site’s “Get Started” or “Sign Up” controls, exposing them to the subscription process associated with the reported charge and cancellation disputes.
If this is a scam, how it works
The evidence-backed path
Each stage below is preserved from the grounded analysis and linked to saved evidence.
The reported outcomes include a subscription charge the complainant says was never authorized and an account that another complainant says was effectively impossible to cancel.
Seeking help may be difficult: the reviewed page contained no direct contact email, and one complainant says the email response they received was templated.
Avoid signing up or entering payment details. If already charged, preserve the signup and billing records, contact the card issuer or payment provider promptly, and ask about blocking further recurring charges.
