Be careful with Active Advantage!
 
I'm sure some folks here sign up with active.com when they register for races.

Well, after the confirmation, it'll ask if you want their one-year "advantage" membership for a 30 day free trial and then $59.95 per year afterwards.

I agreed and then emailed them to cancel about a week later. Got this email:

We are sorry to lose you as an ActiveAdvantage member!

Thank you for using activeadvantage.

Sincerely,

Your ActiveAdvantage Team

Well today, a $59.95 charge on my card! Lame. Anyway, be careful with this site. I took the free trial to look at some of their training plans, but from here on out I'd suggest just clicking no. :mad:

That sux. Hopefully you can dispute the charge and get it removed.

I had the same thing happen to me; fortunately my credit card expired and they didn't get the money.

BTW, i just watched more than 10 times of animated gif in your signature, it's curiously addictive :)

I assume you contacted your CC to dispute the charge? I expect they'll take care of it.

Thanks for the warning!
