At least at HEDGEfolios, FREE means FREE! A new subscriber asked me whether the trial was free or whether a paid subscription gets you one month free. I appreciate hearing from you when I am not clear enough on these issues or anything else. So the answer is:

The trial is free. Unlike some other sites, I do NOT expect that you should pay to try out the HEDGEfolios database. When you register here, you are not required to provide any payment or any credit card information. At the end of the free month, if you like it then you are asked to pay for subsequent months. If you don’t like it, you are not out any membership fees. To me, that’s free. And one more thing, if you decide to pay before the end of the free trial, any unused days are not lost. Your first payment lasts until the end of your second month following the registration.
