tbh its write to use premium lower , so i guess its fine and free..

but its a little scary that it make me pay.

I really don't know how does this offer works on BGA, but for many services on the Internet, you are asked for your means of payment, even if the first month is free.
Then, if you don't cancel it at the end of the month, you pay automatically.

yeah seems like it.. anyway i will probably pay 1 month after to support the site .

I got the "free first month" pop up for a couple of days last week while playing on my iphone using a browser. I didn't get the same on my PC over those same days. I don't like using my phone for paying for stuff, so just bought the whole 12 months premium via my PC later, but am curious why the pop-up for the free month was only on phone/mobile.

I think the popup only comes around once for users and if you don't accept it, never again, which seems a little unfair. A friend of mine joined BGA and saw it but wasn't ready to pull the trigger. She convinced me to join and mentioned that to me, so when I saw it pop up, I jumped at it. I think it appears only 4-5 days after you join.

I don't understand why there just isn't a free one month trial available whenever people are ready to join. Some people need a bit longer to decide if they want to move to premium (and while I understand a free trial isn't really a full move to premium, it requires payment details, and I get the reticence on doing that less than a week after joining).

I can understand wanting to get your offered free month, but I see it is <$26 EUR for one year to join. I, myself, had an offer to keep the old rate but it would not redeem when the time came so I chose to buy the year at the new price anyway. <$3/ month is really, really cheap so maybe it's not worth sweating the $3?
