    DON'T FORGET TO CANCEL THIS ONCE YOU'VE GOT YOUR TRACKS!

    They charge you £6.49 a month (starting on the 10/12 if you signed up today) to access the streaming and 'free' credits. I cancelled via the email they sent upon sign up - there's a link in there to your account.

    Hi thanks for that, i am in my account which part do i go to to cancel, i can only see the auto renew button :confused: think you just have that to 'set auto renew' showing??

    it did give the option of only signing upto the one month for free on registration, dunno if that will stop them attempting to take payment? Also have finished downloading cheryl coles album to the mac, took a while & is showing as 278 mb of download, i'm not an unlimited internet user so am now expecting huge jump in my bill when it comes
    This time next year Rodney... :D

    T & C's say:

    Your card will not be charged and your free access to Sky Songs will automatically expire after 30 days, unless you choose to renew your subscription.

    is that different to what you are seeing?
  • In my account, the 'Auto Renew' link mentioned above was active, with a renewal date of 10th December. I clicked the link and it now states something like 'Set Auto Renew' (which, upon clicking again, reverts back to the 'Auto Renew'). I assume therefore that my account was set up to be billed the £6.49 a month. Just didn't want to risk it and have the hassle of cancelling for the sake of ten tracks!
