It should 100% be illegal for companies to make you give them your payment information when you sign up for a free trial version of their product. It is not necessary and there is no good fucking reason for them to do it. It’s blatantly just so they can steal forgetful customers’ money.
oh hey, thanks for reminding me to cancel a free trial i had going on.
Reblog to save an unnecessary charge cause it also reminded me to cancel a trial lol
Microsoft azure charged me $250 once because the free trial for Kubernetes expired and i wasn’t aware it was still running. mind you, i only deployed an app with “hello world” being printed.
