Gosh, Doc, your profile says you have been a diamond member previously.
The free trial is only for first time members.
You can cancel your new premium membership in settings. You will have to write to [email protected] if you want a refund for any unused portion of the membership.

They're still doing this to people in 2024 btw.
This issue was raised in 2020 and four years later it still says "free trial" all the way up until the point you've already been charged.
I'd have said it's probably just an error on their part but to see it's been this way since 2020 tells me they're absolutely doing this deliberately.

How exactly did they get your credit card number to "dupe" you ?
You duped yourself.

I'm a bit late, but did you get your refund?
The same thing just happened to me. I got a free trial a couple years ago and earlier today I saw I had an option to do another one. Just as I enter my information for the yearly subscription, I see I got charged immediatly after. It's crazy how a platform this Big has issues like this.
