I had an issue with the automatic renewal of my subscription smack in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. I have already been in quarantine for the past 4 weeks and cannot use the services of PDFfiller.
I got in touch with the company and I immediately received a response from Anna who refunded the draft and cancelled my subscription.
Because of the swift attention paid to my concerns, and the professional way in which it was handled, PDFfiller has earned my endorsement.

What do I do if a PDF is too big for email?
Zip It. If you need to send a really big file, or lots of little files, one neat trick is to simply compress the file. This means, you're sending the actual PDF or PSD, or whatever, but you're compressing the data so that the file size is smaller.
How do I email a PDF larger than 25MB?
Gmail lets you send files or photos larger than 25MB. Users can use Google Drive to send larger files through Gmail. One can also use WeTransfers to send up to 2GB files.
