We have all been there. Most of us have even tried one at some point. Free trials are intriguing and enticing by design! They lure us in with amazing offers at little to no upfront cost. But be careful – or they could end up costing you big since most free trials require you to enter card information. All free trials eventually come to an end. Some companies hide their terms and conditions containing a strict cancellation policy in pre-checked sign-up boxes, or in small font somewhere. Another tactic is to offer products/services for free and charge only for shipping, which ends up costing more than you planned. Try to avoid free trial pitfalls by following these simple guidelines.
NOTICE: The financial community is seeing a rise in fraud and scams aimed at stealing account details. Remember, we'll never ask for your PIN, online banking password, or card details. If you have questions, call us at 208-656-1000.
