It's one of the first term and conditions on the page fail to see how you read them and missed it. Although it mentions a scratch card not a razor.

You accept that you will receive a free scratch card from!AllAboutPrizes for the price of £ 0,50. The cost entails postage for sending the scratch card and your membership certificate. Furthermore you accept membership at!AllAboutPrizes with automatic renewal. The membership is free of charge for the first 14 days which is considered a trial period. If you do not wish to continue the subscription after the trial period, all you have to do is cancel your membership at least 10 days before the next billing date. After the expiration of the trial period, membership will cost £ 0.97 per day, which will be charged each month (30 days for £ 29) until you cancel your membership.

Hi everybody,
I was run into the same trap like u.
I was looking how to cancel my membership and I have call them an the number was given just doesn't work. I am not surprised.
Well if u look around in the terms and condition u can find a part how to change yuor bank details....there u can find a phone number i think it is started with +45....... etc. I just called them on that number and I ask to cancel my membership. I gave her my details an I already revived a cancellation email.
Good luck
Sorry about my english.

Just noticed this in my statement today. Contacted my bank who put me through to VISA. Not much help but will monitor future transactions! I am raging! Im with RBS. What bank are you with?

Innocent looking offer with bait in the middle, yet by taking the bait you are locked into something different from how it presented itself to a casual observer. Shares a lot of characteristics with a trap, to be honest.

Read their terms and conditions.
It tells you a couple of ways to cancel in there.

Hi,

same here. Just seen #29 taken out of my account but have no idea how? My only guess is the razor for 50p which Martin suggested in one of his recent emails...

I will try to contact him to check he is aware & in the meantime I will report to my bank.
