I don't even remember signing up for this crappy website and people are right they keep sending emails even though I have closed my account and now I gave 25 hours notice or I will have to take further about actions against them it's harassment and stalking basically. Clearly nobody should ever sign up with these people because it's a scam and annoying every 5 minutes you unsubscribe and yet another email comes through . Ok response to your response I guess I had an account but recently cancelled because of all your nonstop emails that I still can't unscribe myself from and you sent me an email in German or whatever language so I couldn't even read it. Just stop messing with people and if they say stop sending emails stop but no I still get them 10 times a day

How credible can a business platform when i have unsubscribed 5 times and i am still getting messages every other day. Do not signup here. And also, no real value. "The German Linkedin" they say. Germans are not known for their sense of humor so i am not sure who came up with this.

Created a profile for me without my knowledge, I assume from data that they received from a data harvester. Won't ever be using this job board and wouldn't recommend anyone sign up. Would not be surprised if they're breaching GDPR.

Hi Karl, we do not create profiles without user action. A profile is only created when someone actively enters their data and sets a password. If you believe this was done without your consent, please contact our support so we can investigate further and also delete the profile: [email protected]. Best, Mel from XING

i created my IT profil with all certificates, and experience and skills, then i decided to use projobs subscription with 60$ for 3 months, they force you to select 3 months instead of 1 month, now i understand why because they are sure nobody will use it after first month thats why they obligate to book 3 months, after the projobs subscription now from 50 days i got 1 recruiter view and this was from a person which i applied manually to his job. against what they said normally they say we will show your profil to 20000 of recruiter ! honestly ! i didnt even get single view from this subscription.

While we do our best to promote user profiles and increase visibility to recruiters, we want to be transparent that we can’t guarantee views or specific outcomes, as these ultimately depend on a variety of factors including market demand, recruiter preferences, and profile relevance.I wish you continued success in your job search.

Poor service and job board

The job adverts do not generate applications and the portal isn't user friendly. I contacted customer service several times by email and they were unhelpful. When I submitted a complaint, I eventually received a call from a customer service agent but she seemed to not know about my complaint, and said she would call back. She didn't. I requested the vacancy and my account be cancelled which they refused despite it being their policy you can cancel within 14 days. Despite chasing for a follow up, no one has addressed my complaint.

Dear Ben,Thank you for pointing out the wrong answer. We did indeed make a mistake and the wrong language was selected by mistake. I'm sorry about that. We are only human and make mistakes. Thank you for understanding.On the subject of profile deletion:If you have a basic profile with us, you can delete it yourself online at any time. Of course, we will then not need an ID from you. If you can no longer log in and therefore cannot delete the profile yourself, we must ensure for security reasons that it is actually you who deletes the profile and not someone else. That is why we ask for an ID. You will also understand that we are doing this in your interest and for your protection. BestMel from XING

This Xing app should be removed from…

This Xing app should be removed from Google Play Store, here is why:The app is hyper sensitive of hacking. İt is a very unstable safety that one of the login/logout. The app oftentimes automatically sign out the account. İt is designed only for Germany and the rest of Europe can't speak and if someone of the German Heads of the platform try to contact you, they will not be nice but they will tendentially try to kick you away if you are not a German born citizen. Only for that. They were also helped by Chineses in 2016 (from where the name of the social comes from) as Hamburg and other cities coworked in team with Shangai and other Chinese metropolitan cities. Despite this there are 80% only and only German users in 2024. As for now İ recommed to 7billion of users to refrain to trust this app. İt is a mere loss of time and a soft-racist one platform.

Hi, we have a dedicated security team and always comply with latest security practices. Sometimes we force specific users due to suspicious activity. Besides we have several colleagues from Asia also from other regions in the world and they are experts on their field and we're happy to employ them to work in our company. Our target market are German-speaking countries, that's why we have a lot of German users in our platform. Regards, Biggi from XING

Hi Val,I'm sorry to hear that our repeated information about the automatic renewal of your contract was still not clear to you. We provide this notice several times during the purchase process and confirm it again by email after the purchase. Of course, it is also stated in the terms and conditions that you have agreed to, and you can see it at any time in your profile in the “Purchases” section. Also, before we hand this over to a collection agency, we send 3 payment reminders to your registered e-mail-address, one more mail from our support team, one letter to your invoice address, 3 messages on your XING messenger and post a pop-up, whenever you log in to XING. Sad to hear, you have missed all of these.BestMel from XING

Notification settings and other

Despite the fact that i disabled all notification.I still get "Person X has something in common with you, visit their profile..etc"In my opinion this is a clickbait to visit other profiles so they can subscribe premium account to know who visited.Transparency in the account settings would be nice.

Hi Hans Patrik, How come you think that? What do you want to cancel? Your Premium Membership? That's pretty easy: Just click on the gear symbol in the top right corner, followed by "Memberships & invoices". There you will already find the option to cancel.Or do you want to delete your profile? For that, just go to the settings, followed by "Member account". There you will find the option to delete your basic profile. If you have a premium account and want to delete your profile, we will do it for you. Simply send a mail to [email protected]. As you can see, no scam at all and every option is easy to find. If you need assistance, though, you can always get in touch with us.Best, Mel from XING

John oDE•10 reviewsJan 20, 2024

well it used to be great

well it used to be great, I received lots of hits and messages from recruiters, nowadays it's dead. My profile was always filled out and now I see it says '30%' complete, because they have changed it. There is a structural problem with these univited middle men. In theory a well run business social media site is a great idea and will work, but the company running it seeks to interfere more and more into the private relationship of the users and place further demands on the provision of information. Finallly of course they demand fees and by monopolising the market can effectively blackmail the users so it becomes a form of financial extortion. And of course it's digital bureaucracy, all bureaucracies eventually kill the the thing they are meant to serve and subsequently die...

Charging for service not delivered

I had my credit card changed, and Xing sent me several warnings about service debt collection. I eventually signed in and canceled my subscription for service that I don't use. However, even though it says my subscription is canceled and I don't have Premium membership, they still want to charge me for full year of usage, even though they don't provide me with service. Instead of normally canceling my account for non-payment and allowing for grace period of 1-2 months for me to decide - they force you to pay even though you don't want to use them. This is least to say scam. I have stopped paying LinkedIn few years ago in a same manner, and everything went without any problems - they canceled my membership as I wanted. STAY AWAY FROM XING in huge radius - worthless service - terrible customer experience.

Jul 11, 2023

Dear Adil,I can totally understand your frustration but since a cancellation was not received in accordance with the terms, the already invoiced term would still have to be paid. The service will of course be provided to you once we receive the amount due.To help avoid such issues, we sent you numerous emails asking you to update your outdated payment data, unfortunately that never happened. If you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected], Michael
