    Me too! No sign of free trial. 7 day or 6 months. Just asks for payment details...

    Thanks for your comments guys. I've just added this step-by-step process to the guide:

    How to get this

    You won’t see the offer on the site, but Rdio's confirmed in writing to us that it’ll work for everyone. To get it…
    1. Go to the Rdio* site
    2. Put your name and email address in (or sign up via Facebook)
    3. Wait for a confirmation email
    4. Click through to the site from the confirmation email
    5. You'll have unlimited access for a week on a seven-day free trial
    6. When the seven days has ended, the six-month free trial will automatically kick in. Do note, this trial is only for PC and Macs, not mobile apps.
    At no point do you need put in any card/payment details anywhere to get the free trial, so when the trial ends, that's it, you won't be charged.


    The six-month free trial is also available to Rdio users who have previously taken a seven-day trial. Just login to your account and the six-month trial will automatically begin.



    I hope that helps,

    Tried it myself on iphone but as soon as i clicked on the link it turned from 6 months to 6days!!! I then looked at the reviews in on the app store and saw a majority of people had left negative reviews due to being misled about trial period and when you take out full paid membership it doesnt appear to work!!
    Mse should update their site to avoid more people being let down by this

    [FONT=&quot]Hi Adey,

    It's only the[/FONT][FONT=&quot] pc/mac trial that's 6 months, not the mobile app. We do mention in the guide, but will bold it to try to make it clearer.

    Thanks[/FONT]

    Hi

    Under settings area (click the arrow next to your name in top right of screen)

    Once in settings click on external tab and uncheck the Share the songs you play on Facebook box.
