I would like to upgrade my Basic account with the option to cancel before the first year.

Hello, 

 

I would like to upgrade my Basic account to a Plus on a monthly roll out with the option to cancel before the first year. It is possible that I will move to a business account in the coming months and as such do not want to be tied for a minimum of a year. 

 

When I select the monthly subscription I have the note (screenshot below) which seems to indicate that at minimum I will have to register for a year. 

Is there another solution? 

 

 

Many thanks,

    If you join a Business team account while on an active paid subscription, you're receive a prorated refund for the time remaining on your account.

    Hi Rich, 

     

    Many thanks but in this instance, the accounts would be different so I am not sure it would work. I would retain my personal basic and add a business one for the company being created.

    I think thats just the wording around the UK / EU refund rights if I'm honest Matt07 

     

    They are basically saying you will pay £9.99 a month for 12 months and after that £9.99 plus any taxes etc. that they may need to charge (in other words the first year is a promo price). 

     

    You will be able to cancel that at any point, but, as it said, no refunds 🙂
