constantly used by hackers constantly used by hackers as a means to spread malicious email links. Company does nothing to stop it. Hundreds of complaints. I was blocked from complaining on Facebook. They have zero concerns about stopping it other than to cover up the fact they do not intend to.

DO NOT USE Bitly QR code generator Only needed 1 QR code generated for a poster at work. Went with Bitly as the add was very much highlighting the fact I could create codes for free (at least during the trial period) and because it seemed to be a reputable company. After 2 weeks however and before the poster event at work, Bitly has disabled my QR code and it basically holding me to ransom for a minimum yearly fee of approx. €100 if I want to re-activate my one QR code. Ridiculous! Wish I had gone with the Adobe QR code generator as that one apparently is free.

Scam Scam Scam Scam Scam Scam. Read the other reviews. This is terrible. Don’t do it, trust me. I’m sure there will be lawsuits against this companies unethical tactics. Reprinting my business cards. Don’t give this company your money. I’m never recommending Bitly.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Deceptive and Misleading. I had a 14-day trial and created some posts for a campaign and saved the QR codes which it allows you to do. What it doesn't tell you is that after 14 days all these codes you created will STOP functioning unless you sign up. What A Total Rip Off! I now have to redo all the posts that I created and I have lost any benefit from the ones used. I am furious! I think this is deceptive and misleading business practice. The only good thing about the experience was I discovered you could make your OWN QR codes very easily on Inkscape which is genuinely free. Hth.

Infested with short links to adult sites. For many years we have gotten our inboxes full of bitly links containing adult sites. Bitly has been advised of this many times, but obviously never answered nor acted on any of our reports. I have to suspect that bitly profits hugely from unsolicited advertisers and junk mailers.
