Completesavings.

Bought 4 nights at a travelodge and saw the £15 off next purchase. Thought it a good deal so went through the rigmarole believing I was still on the travelodge web site. No indication on sign up procedure of any charges.
Felt uneasy so went to completesavings website where ,in the TandC's there was a monthly charge. To be fair it was easy to find, as was the cancellation procedure, but you had to be aware of a possible charge to even look. Cancelled by email straight away and had confirmation of this. Will see if this has gone through in a few days, hopefully it will have been cancelled. 7/10 to completesavings for the cancellation procedure, 0/10 to travelodge and completesavings on the sign up so be warned if using travelodge.

Well, its NOT that difficult to avoid signing up to a recurring payment on a site which clearly states its terms.
Remember in days gone by they said "engage brain before speaking"? Well, replace "speaking" with "clicking" and you're there!

Seeing that there was no indication that it was not just a discount voucher then yes it was a surprise. I just posted the warning for others to be aware that Travelodge discounts may not be all they seem to be.

I placed an order with Sports Direct and there was a cash-back offer after I'd completed check-in.

I followed the link to another website (can't remember the name now) and it didn't take me long to Google and find out it was a 'free trial' but lots of people had had issues with cancelling the 'free trial'.

So, despite what was said an another thread:

I'm not lucky, I'm just ultra careful.
