      AWFUL. I tried a trial subscription for $4 a month and when it jumped up to $25, I called to cancel. The rep told me they'd hate to lose me as a customer, and would I stay at the promotional rate of $6 per month? I agreed. The next month, and the next, they charged me $25 again. I called to complain, and they said they would reverse the charge, but the $6 rate promotion was no longer available and would I be okay with $8. I said yes, like a fool. They just charged me $25 again. I am cancelling these guys today. It is ridiculous. How do you expect people to continue to trust your paper when you a blatantly lying and stealing money from your subscribers? I am a struggling single parent, and that money comes from my $50 "fun" budget. I could have taken my kids out for ice cream, gotten a few coffees, or gone to the movies for that money. But now I am stuck at home with empty pockets. I am so angry with this poorly run company.
