Hi, our customer service team would be happy to issue a refund. When you purchase a background report plus free trial, $39.95 is the amount due at check-out. Please contact us at 1-888-813-0008. Thanks for pointing out our terms of service, Ken. We do offer the free trial for seven days, and customers may cancel any time in that period to avoid a charge.

I don't know all the details, but here's something from their "Terms of Service"...

4. Free TrialsWe encourage the use of our Services through free trials. Free trials generally last for one week for eligible new members. Free trials are only available to first time customers. You must have internet access and a valid payment source to redeem a free trial offer. Upon registering for your free trial, your payment source will be authorized for up to approximately one membership period of service. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may be reduced to reflect the authorization; however, no charges will be made against the payment source unless you do not cancel prior to the end of your free trial membership period. We will begin billing your payment source for membership fees corresponding to your membership period at the end of your free trial unless you cancel prior to the end of your free trial. You will not receive a notice from us that your free trial membership has ended or that your paying membership has begun. YOU MUST CANCEL PRIOR TO THE END OF YOUR FREE TRIAL TO AVOID CHARGES TO YOUR PAYMENT SOURCE. We will continue to bill your payment source on a recurring basis on the anniversary of your membership period until you cancel. You may cancel your membership at anytime, and cancellation will be effective immediately. We do not provide refunds for any partial membership periods.

I added the bolding and underlining.



Did you comply with all the terms and still get billed?
