Filesonic Premium 1 Month Rebilling Question

Hey guys I just wanted to address a recent question from one of my followers.  He had a question regarding filesonic's premium purchase for 1 month.  Some of you may have the same question, so please read.

"Anon2393: i want to get filesonic premium for a month but i red that they actually bill you the one month price every month automatically even though they dont make it clear that that's the case. plus cancelling is hard. is this true?"

Some of it is true, some of it is not.  Filesonic (as well as other web hosting sites such as Hotfile, Fileserve, etc) all bill you each month recurringly when you purchase a 1 month membership.  What they all also do is provide you with the option to pay with either credit card or paypal.  The reason it seems like "cancelling is hard" is because they (the websites) do not control cancellation services afterwards.  Once you sign up using your credit card, you have to cancel using your credit card company, which makes it extremely difficult to cancel.  However, if you use paypal, there is an option that lists you what "subscriptions" you have subscribed to.  In there, you have the option to "cancel" a subscription and therefore you will be able to easily cancel a Filesonic or other premium service for any hosting site.  I also recommend that you double check on how to cancel before you buy the 1 month premium, and then buy it.  Don't try to figure out how to do it the day before your month membership renews.  Paypal also gives you the date that you purchased and the day it automatically renews, so cancel your membership before this time.  This makes things super easy right?

Hope you guys all enjoyed my tutorial.  If you have any questions, feel free to drop a question in the chatbox or email me at alyptic.presents@gmail.com

Enjoy!
