Viking Direct - warning of extra charge

I just went to place an order on Viking Direct's website, and just as I was about to checkout, I noticed an additional charge of £0.94 for 'Protection Plus'.

This allows you to send back goods after the 30 day free trial they offer, but there is NO WAY to remove it directly on the website.

I had to email them and ask them to set up my account so that it doesn't add the charge on. I've also emailed them a complaint about it not being optional on the website.

I know it's only 94p, but if you think of the number of transactions a day they must do, and the amount of extra money it's making for them, it's out of order, IMHO.

Just a warning :)
