After signing up for a free trial of Extreme Acai Berry, I began to notice recurring charges on my credit card account for the amount of $US 8.51 a month for the last 3 months, usually on the 7th or 8th. When I rang my credit card company today they explained that these were 'subscription' charges from the company I had bought the 'free' trial from. I had no idea that when I signed up for the trial that I would be charged for a service I do not intend nor ever intended to use.
My credit card company has filed a letter with the company requesting cancellation of membership but has also warned me to watch out for any subsequent charges. I suspect until my credit card is renewed in several months, these charges will continue because of the unscrupulous nature of the companies. I am aware that others have been charged alot more, but I want other people to know that people outside the USA have been affected too and to take heed!
