RE: AOL - tried free membership trial - then bill for $ 200.98 appeared on phone bill

Well I'm really upset. I recieved a Free Membership Trial for AOL, and decided to try it since i had never had AOL before and i had heard it was such a great Internet Service. I NEVER once mentioned I wanted my payment method to appear on my phone bill.

Just yesterday I recieved the phone bill...my parents were very very very upset. I thought i was going to get killed there for a moment...The bill was for 200.98 dollars!!! Also... I called to cancel and they come up with that I still have another month left for my membership.
