After hearing the ad on the radio, I thought it might be true. So I decided to give a try. But do you know what happened, it happened the same thing. I ended up signing up again. But this time I thought to chose the program which I needed and was of little cost or free trial. But what I read the terms and conditions accidentally at the bottom where it says you need to sign up for 13 offers:-
- 1st Step- 2 offers
- 2nd step- 2 offers
- 3rd step- 9 offers
13 X $40= $520 New Ipad comes for almost around $500
So basically you are not getting Ipad free but you are paying it. I know you can cancel all the offers by end of the month but you must understand the pain of cancelling them. Its too boring and painful. Even if they accidentally charged your card, it will take days or week to get it back. And if you missed the deadline its very rare you will be shown mercy by the company to refund you. So my friend be careful. It does not look like a scam but can be scam if you don't understand carefully.
