No free trial as promised.

I can understand you wan't money for your software, but promising a free trial and then demanding pay after customers installs is pretty lousy for a company this size.
I was offered a free trial. After install, you demand money. False advertising, og no contact-information. If you have any remarks before I make a complaint to the Danish Consumer Protection Agency, please add them now.

I'm not complaining. Adobe refuse to provide any contact-information, I'm unable to get in contact with them. They refer to this site.
This is false marketing, and considered bad practice according to Danish regulatory requirements. It's even in conflict with EU regulations. I will make the complaint no matter what, this is meant as an offer for Adobe to explain their actions. As there is no fee for complaining - this is cheaper then letting Adobe force me to purchase trial software.
Whether the software is "Trial software", "as is" or what ever you choose to name it, has nothing to do with this.
On Adobes site, they are advertising a free trial. I installed the software only due to this, but once the software was installed on my computer, Adobe refuses to give the announced trial. This information only become available when software is installed.

  • No refund for the "Free Trial"

    I subscribed for the "free trial" of FormsCentral Basic Service on 10/04/2014 and it was canceled before a month of use. I was charged 14.99 dollars on my credit card and still didn't receive my refund.
    I was aware that I would be charged when subscribing, but you promised a refund if it was cancelled before a month of use.

    there's nothing practical you can do with your current computer about a trial that ends early,

  • I want to get the free trial however do I have to pay for the next month?

    Please answer ASAP

    Hi there, Chyakka, and welcome to the Skype Community!
    Click to enlarge Thanks to my browser and the reply button, your full question was
    "I want to get the free trial. However, do I have to pay for the next month?"
    I'm pleased to inform you that the answer is no. You are under absolutely NO obligation to continue your subscription if you don't unconditionally want to. (Really, though, why would you cancel your subscription with the lowest rates in online telephony?)
    After 27 days, your subscription automatically renews. Cancel within the 27 days and you won't be charged for the full amount of the subscription on a month-to-month basis. For your reference: A month-to-month Unlimited World subscription is US$13.99 and can get as low as US$11.89/mo. when you prepay for one year (a 15% off discount.) Prices mentioned are pre-tax amounts where applicable. To learn how to cancel your subscription, which takes no more than a few minutes of your time, check out this support article. (You have my promise that this isn't rocket science!) Thanks for trying out one of Skype's most valuable subscriptions and I hope you enjoy Skype as a whole! If you have any more questions or concerns about Skype, don't hesitate to post again to the community!

  • My Azure Free trial is suspended

    I am a developer and I subscribed tp free trial of Azure to host my website. However within 24 hours I got an email saying it is suspended because of "abuse/fraud"
    I dont understand what this is. Can someone help me?

    The same thing happened to
    me too. Was
    only 3 days of account. I
    contacted theweak support of Azure
    and gave an
    excuse that my account generic promised the
    rest,for this was
    suspended.
    The only content that it

  • Why is no free trial available?

    I need to download a free trial of Dreamweaver for Windows (PC) to do an important project for a college class, but I can't find a free trial. It looks like a new version of Dreamweaver (CS5) is coming out soon, so I can't find the CS4 trial anywhere. I only have access to this program at school, but I live 40 minutes away so I need to be able to work on this at home. I've even gotten so desperate that I tried downloading a free trial from some shady-looking sites, risking getting a virus. So far, none of the download links have worked. I can't afford to wait even as much as a week, because I need to create a website from scratch by May 6. If there is no free trial of Dreamweaver available, does anyone know of another type of website creation software that I could use to write the codes and CSS style sheet for my site, and then I could copy and paste them into Dreamweaver at school? I realize, since this is an official Adobe website, users may not be allowed to promote other companies' software, but if there's nothing available from Adobe right now I may have no other choice. I'm not very tech-savvy and I've never used software like this until a month or two ago, so I'm panicking about the shortage of time that I have for this project. Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Based on pre-order information the release is imminent (estimated release 4/29).  If you cannot wait and need a trial immediately there are 2 things you can do.
    If you can get your hands on a disc, even at school, do so.  Installing the software without a serial number will start the trial.
    Otherwise, if you need a trial and you use Windows, there is Expression Web ( http://www.microsoft.com/expression/products/Web_Overview.aspx ).  On the Mac side, I would say maybe RapidWeaver ( http://www.realmacsoftware.com/rapidweaver/ ) or Coda ( http://www.panic.com/coda/ ).

  • Help! Need to cancel free trial but can't find it!

    Hi, I downloaded the free trial of PSE 7 a few weeks ago. It worked for one day and then said my trial had ended. I assumed I just did it wrong so I deleted it from my computer and really forgot about it. I ended up receiving PSE as a gift that same week. Anyway, I just got an email saying my trial was fixing to end, but when I tried to cancel it it says I never downloaded anything from Adobe. I am afriad it is going to charge my account anyway, which I cannot afford!! Does anyone know what I could do? Thanks SO much!

    They won't charge your account that way. At least not until they jump on the subscription bandwagon that seems to be the current trend. I HOPE NOT!!!
    Anyway, if I am correctly understanding you, just ignore that email. I got one that was even stranger since I have never downloaded any CS4 product - trial or not.

  • 30 Day Free Trial Will Not Work on Vista

    Anyone have any suggestions? I would like to try out
    Dreamweaver (I am a GoLive CS2 lover) and have downloaded
    Dreamweaver twice and loaded it twice and cannot get the 30 day
    free trial to load.
    I get an error on start up that says Adobe cannot open the 30
    day free trial, please try restarting your computer or loading the
    software again. I have tried this numerous times.
    Adobe can't you give me a dummy license so I can check this
    out or send me a comped CD?
    Customer services on the phone sent me here for some queer
    reason.

    When you start the file you downloaded, have you tried right
    clicking on it
    and starting it as Administrator?

    .  Later, I purchased on the PC I use at work with a Different email address than home. I have not been able to install at home.  When I log in the email address is preprinted and I cannot change it to the other one that I used when I made the purchase. Also the time for the email that was sent when I joined has expired. I tried changing the email and password at home and have only been able to get access to another free trial.

  • I am trying to INSTALL the free trials of AI and PS when I click on the link to install it goes to another page says installing but nothing is happening. I have the FREE TRIAL Creative Cloud Membership.

    I am trying to INSTALL the free trials of AI and PS when I click on the link to install it goes to another page says installing but nothing is happening. I have the FREE TRIAL Creative Cloud Membership.
    I am getting very frustrated with this. When I try to install the Creative Cloud thing it asks me to pay even though it says try for free.

    Hi Mirrormonolith,
    Please try the following steps assuming its a MAC:
    1) Open Activity monitor and Force quit Adobe CEF Helper, Creative cloud, Adobe IPC Broker & Crash Deamon if available.
    2) Try to open, if doesn't work then go to Applications>> Adobe Creative cloud>> Right click>> Get Info>> Click on the Add sign>> Select the user you are logged in>> Give Read and write access.
    3) If that doesn't work then enable the root user and launch to update there, check this link on how to enable/sign in to root user Enabling and using the "root" user in Mac OS X
    Please let me know of that worked.

  • I have downloaded the 30 day free trial using Adobe Download Assistant but I do not know how to open it and start using it.

    I have downloaded the 30 day free trial using Adobe Download Assistant but I do not know how to open it and start using it.

    This was so annoying!! It took me a good couple of hours but i figured it out, you need to do the following: Go to the folder where you saved the download (in my case i saved it in My Downloads) -> click on 'Adobe Photoshop Elements 12' -> click on 'PSE 12' -> click on 'Setup' (select the icon which is a box with a shield) -> follow instructions and....voila! You will need to restart when it suggests so save anything else first, then when it reboots you should see the icon on your desktop....hpe this helps!

  • Can I download more than one application, with the free trial?

    I'm interested in Illustrator and Photoshop, more immediately. However, will possibly be looking at a full individual subscription, at a later time. Is it possible to download more than one application, for a free trial, at a time?

    Jacob Bugge wrote:
    It is quite possible, but you may wish to start by downloading the trial the of the first application and start using it before you download the next one, because that will give you more total tryout time than if you download both simultaneously.
    I thought the trial period of 30 days starts from the day you use, not from the day you download/install.
