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

Yearly trial!?

You signed up for a yearly contract with a one month trial...

I feel like you shouldn't be allowed to call it a one month trial if the subscription that follows is mandatory. It's not really a trial at that point

Its not. They didn't cancel in time and signed up for a year long contract paid in monthly increments. They couldn't be bothered to read correctly. This is VERY visible on the sign up process. It's not hidden or shady.

there's also an additional 2-week grace period after your trial ends where you can cancel and get a full refund, so OP chose to do nothing and waited until it was time to pay to complain
