What reviewers are saying about what3words.com

Trustpilot rating
3.1

out of 5

Based on 289 reviews

Recent reviews express significant frustration regarding the introduction of a paid subscription model for features that were previously free, alongside some reports of technical inaccuracies. Despite these complaints about the business model and occasional performance issues, the company appears to be a legitimate service that is widely recognized and used, rather than a scam.

What should you do?

No obvious scam signs were found, but this is not a guarantee. Check payment details carefully and stop if anything changes or feels wrong.
