Just checked that freedomtube out nationx

Yep, that's simply a hidden x-sell. Very nasty.

<label><input name="payType" value="onedayonedollartrial4847monthly4a:creditcar d" checked="checked" type="radio"><em><strong class="red">FREE PASS </strong><span class="white">- Credit Card $0</span></em></label></td>

They hid a $1/1 day trial that rebills at 47 bucks the next day.

That's what I was saying in my post up top when I said that sites using hidden x-sells are definitely looking to have their merchant accounts yanked.

I wonder if they send an email and/or show you what happened after you sign up to at least give you a chance to cancel? There has to be something somewhere that they are hiding behind to be able to continue processing credit cards with their merchant bank right?

Anyway, yeah...this shit is totally wrong. And doesn't fit with what I was referring to as far as the wikipedia thing. This is a hidden x-sell plain and simple. And I can't see how they can legally operate like this.

I know that for our merchant accounts they grilled us, gave us anal probings, and checked us out more thoroughly than the FBI does terrorists.

And they do a "review" and check us again every year. Every site and everything.

I need to find a cool bank like these guys are using and start doing the same thing! lol
That looks like easy money...

Just kidding. Those are fucking crooks.
