I enrolled in freecreditreport.com to obtain a FREE credit report. The site requested a credit card number, but very specifically stated that my credit card would not be charged. I had a nine day free trial period, however my card was charged the next day for $24.95. When I called to inquire I was told that I was charged because I "mistakenly" clicked on an option for which there was a fee. If that was the case, it certainly was not made clear to me, it was probably in the very fine print. The customer representative was appropriately sympathetic, however he could not remove the charge only discount it to $14.95. I believe this company relies on trickery and false advertising.
