Dietary Analysis

[BigTex]

I have a web site that I have my college students use to conduct their written paper on a 3 day diet recall. This site is free and you can use it as many times as you like. They also have a very nice phone app that has the capacity to scan food labels and enter your meals. Not to mention it also syncs with FitBit and Google fit apps, as well as other apps, in real time. I subscribed to the Gold plan as it has a few more features suck as keto, intermittent fasting and custom diets. I do carbohydrate cycling and was able to create my own diet templates based on the day of the week.

This looked interesting. So, I signed up.

However, it then said I had a 14 day trial period.

It appeared that the intent of the 14 day trial period to sell their site service.

For someone who need assistance, I can see it being a site they can help them.

However, since I am am capable doing this in a couple of minutes with a calculator, I didn't see the point of going through the learning process of something that I don't need and pay someone for something I can already do, quickly. So, I unsubscribed.

I understand the marketing of having someone try something to get them to purchase it. However, I am not a fan of the approach.

Thanks Kenny, I had no idea they had changed to a free trial service. It has been totally free for several years. This year I join the Gold service and paid I believe $44 annually. As much as I use it I don't mind. No I don't like trials either. Especially those where you have to give them a credit card number and then fight with them to end the trial.

Yea, I did a trial with a credit card one time. It was a pain to deal with when I decide not to sign up.

The guy I tried to cancel with keep going on about what I was getting.

My reply was, "I am getting out."
