4 Ways To Avoid Getting Stuck in Free Promotion Traps
If you've ever signed up for a free trial and then cringed when you saw a charge come through your bank account for a subscription you swore you'd cancel, we're here to help. Free trials are not only offered, they've come to be expected in many cases. In fact, it seems like you can get a free trial for almost anything — a quick Google search turned up 24 free trial opportunities, including Amazon Prime Video, BritBox, Spotify, Discovery, Kindle Unlimited, and more. Consider This: Learn More: Some companies even partner with other companies to promote their products or services when you sign up. For instance, Amazon Prime members receive two free audiobooks and a 30-day free trial from Audible that auto-renews at $14.95 per month after the trial, and certain T-Mobile plans come with Apple TV+ On Us for a promotional period. This all sounds great, but it's all too common for people to forget about the subscription only to be surprised by a charge for a service they don't want or need. GOBankingRates talked with Sarah Keish, a financial expert and founder of RBT Practice Exam, and Melanie McGovern, director of public relations at Better Business Bureau. They recommended these four ways to avoid getting stuck in these free promotion traps. Read the Fine Print and Watch for Pre-Checked Boxes One mistake McGovern sees when it comes to promotional deals is you may not realize you're opting into a subscription. If you're not checking or unchecking boxes or not reading the fine print, you may be agreeing to a trial without realizing it. The Federal Trade Commission also warns of this. By leaving certain boxes checked or unchecked, you may unknowingly be giving the company permission to charge you after the trial. According to Keish, it's important to check the fine print — 'particularly the subsection regarding how long the free trial is and when the billing starts.' Trending Now: Pay Attention to Deals That Require a Credit Card If the deal requires a credit card, McGovern said, 'there's a likelihood that there's a charge associated with the 'free' trial.' Keish backs this up saying, 'Just because it's advertised as 'free' doesn't necessarily mean that it won't eventually cost you.' Entering credit or debit card information means that the company will have the means to charge you when the free trial ends, so you'll have to be extra vigilant about cancelling before the subscription auto-renews. Cancel During the Trial If you wait until the trial is over to cancel it, you run the risk of missing the deadline and watching as the subscription auto-renews. Keish recommends you cancel flat-out — 'yes, even during the trial.' 'In most cases, you can cancel the trial whenever you want and still keep access through the length of the time. If it's a 30-day trial, canceling on Day 1 typically doesn't take away your access — it just halts the auto-renewal,' she said. Do a Periodic Subscription Check Keish recommends taking about five minutes a month to review your accounts and check for unwanted charges. Accounts can include your bank account, credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay accounts. She calls it a 'subscription audit' and makes sure her clients do one each month. If you have a lot on your plate, she said that there are programs like Rocket Money or Trim that can scan your accounts for subscriptions and then help you cancel any unwanted ones. If charges show up that you disagree with, the Better Business Bureau recommends disputing the charge with the company directly, and if that doesn't work, contact your credit card company to dispute the charge.

Hot deal: Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro record-low price keeps dropping!
Ryan Haines / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro's record-low prices keep going even lower. Today, they're only $109.99! That's a massive discount on Samsung's best earbuds, which usually go for $249.99. Buy the Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for just $109.99 ($140 off) This offer is available from Woot, an Amazon-owned deals website. They're only available in Silver, and there's a limit of two units per customer. One thing to keep in mind is that this is an international version of the earbuds. This means you don't get a full manufacturer warranty, but Woot throws in its own 90-day warranty. The sale is available for three days or 'until sold out.' Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Situational awareness, and utility lights Compared to the nearly identical Buds3, the Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro offer better sound quality, thanks to 2-way speakers, and enhanced situational awareness, thanks to advanced Ambient sound offerings. Audio is delivered through a 10.5mm DD speaker, and a 6.1mm Planar speaker. Bluetooth 5.4 offers solid connectivity and features such as Siren Detect can automatically switch ANC and Ambient Noise levels on the fly. The new Interpreter mode works with your phone to offer translations. See price at Woot! Save $140.00 This is a really hot deal, guys! The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are excellent earbuds, but we had a hard time justifying the $249.99 retail price. At just $109.99, though, they are quite the steal. These earbuds offer excellent sound quality and really good ANC performance. Based on the objective tests from our sister site, they can block out 76% of external noise. Of course, these are premium earbuds, so the rest of the experience has to be just as good as the audio. These offer a pretty nice 4.5-hour battery life. And this is without even counting the juice in the case. They also offer a pretty neat IP57 rating, so you won't have to worry about a bit of sweat, rain, or dust. The design is also pretty nice and unique. Ryan Haines / Android Authority While these will work very well with any device, some features are Samsung-exclusive. These include auto-switching between Samsung products, live translation, and sound detection. The latter will disable ANC if it detects essential noises, such as emergency vehicle sirens. As you can see, while really cool, those features aren't exactly essential to the experience. Non-Samsung phone owners can still take advantage of gesture support, including touch, swipe, and press gestures. You'll also enjoy capabilities like 360-degree audio, Find My support, and more. At just $109.99, it's hard to beat this offer. Go get them before they are gone! We can only assume these will be flying off the shelves. If you're not quite convinced, though, our audio experts at have put together a comprehensive list of the best wireless earbuds. You'll find plenty of great alternatives there!
