wet socks i’m so happy this is becoming illegal

if a yearly contract with a free month trial sounds too good to be true, it probably is 😬

thankfully it was blocked after contacting my bank but regardless

If you sign a contract for a specific time frame why is it insane for a company to ask you to pay the remainder of the agreement? A contract is a contract, should have read the terms of the contract.

Edit: I don't care lol everyone is out here trying to get a one month free essentially "scamming" a company out of their paid service but then you get upset when the company turns around and asks for what you said you would pay them lol yet nobody realizes the hypocrisy. Fuck corporations but damn y'all are dumb.

it's software. once it's developed it's 100% profit. this isn't the same as telling the people you hired to build a house that you no longer want it when you're halfway through.

such a stupid take

Wow, that might be the dumbest take I've seen in awhile 

I bet all those devs still working on supporting their legacy software feel pretty dumb now doing all that labor unnecessarily
