I'm the same as everyone else. I thought the chance of getting 12 Economist issues for £12 was too good to be true and I was right. I was charged £44 with no prior warning or notification that my subscription would be auto-renewed. Also, I made my subscription through telephone and told the Economist employee to ensure that my subscription would end after the inital 12 issues however was still charged with no option to end. The website is slow and has no clear icon or button to end a subscription. I urge anyone thinking about getting a promo from them to not. It's not worth it.
