I thought I was purchasing a one-month subscription (I didn't select the correct button prior to the check-out process and was not advised of the amount before I hit Submit). Would REALLY like a refund of the yearly subscription - am very happy to pay the19.99 for one month. Please...

I had a very complicated question pertaining to a credit card charge, (I didn't know which account within our company had incurred the charge, and therefore, couldn't track down a receipt) **** helped me reverse engineer the charge to find out where it came from. My company provides Customer Support for the Video Gaming industry, so I know the value of a positive CS experience. Way to Go, ****!

For pdfFiller’s FAQs
Below is a list of the most common customer questions. If you can’t find an answer to your question, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.
Are digital and electronic signatures the same thing?
An electronic signature is any piece of data like an image or a symbol, while a digital signature needs to have a certificate-based digital ID. Digital signatures are used to digitally “seal” an electronic document and prove that the signer has been verified.
How does pdfFiller verify electronic signatures?
Each time you or your client draw, upload or capture a signature, pdfFiller instantly provides a digital certificate to validate your electronic signature. Thus, pdfFiller works as a trusted third party, or a certificate authority (CA).
Can I edit my signatures?
Yes. Use the Signature Wizard to change your existing signatures. You can edit your name and choose between different types of handwriting for your signature. You can also add multiple signatures by uploading, capturing, typing, or drawing.
Do I need to add my signature every time?
No, the first time you create an electronic signature for PDF, it gets saved automatically, so you can use it any number of times on any number of documents.
