Once you have paid for a membership you cannot go to free membership!

Hello,

I learned a not so amusing thing today...

Apperantly when somebody does the first month upgrade to premium membership for $19 and he or she decides after that she/he does not want to continue with the premium membership, well, then she/he cannot return to their old Free membership...
I did not realize this and I always tell people don't have nothing to loose with doing the first month membership.

Ready to put this into action?

Start your free journey today — no credit card required.

But turns out: They really have something to loose!!!

I was really surprised by this and I wonder if I am the only one that does not know this downgrade is not possible?

There was a blog 8 months ago where Kyle explains what is possible and what not:

I justed wanted to send this info out again, so people are aware of this!

Read you soon...

Grtz,

Bert
