Subscribed 15 minutes ago, unticked the auto renewal box, went back to have another look found the auto renew box ticked, will have to keep an eye on it.

Same thing has happened to me.   I'll try again tomorrow.   Keep getting an error message.

Looks like they may be hoping you (we) will forget to do it.

Usually after un-ticking auto renewal, you generally have to click on 'save' or 'update' or whatever words they are using at the moment. They intentionally make it tricky in the hope that you will mess up. Sneaky.  ::)

Odd ... I am getting a message telling me that the discount code is not working. :-\

Did everyone enter the code exactly as Frank wrote it?  :-\

Added: I managed to subscribe via the .com.au site through clicking on an ad. (I had previously been trying to sign up on .co.uk which is what I usually do.) Still odd, but no matter.  :)

The cost of the monthly subscription changes from 9.95 to $1 or £1 once you enter the code.

Contact them and explain that you entered the code and you thnk you have mistakenly been charged the full amount. They should be understanding as it is a currently advertised discount code.
