This is a scam. They trick you into a subscription on the basis for age verificaton or free article. My credit card company had to do a chargeback.

SCAM! Can confirm all other reviews here are correct. This company somehow manages to capture your payment details from an innocuous link and then sets up a recurring £34.90 monthly payment. We only realised when our bank (shout out to Cooperative) flagged the suspicious activity and blocked her card. Moral of the story: Scrutinise every link you click on!!

It disguises itself as a £0 age verification step, then attempts to charge £34.90 per month after a 1-day trial.

It appeared as a legitimate Google ad on a random website, mimicking sensitive content (in my case, I initially thought it was part of a news article).
Clicking it led to an age verification gateway with a £0 payment request (via a site called g-zone-collection.com in my case).
Shortly after, I received an email thanking me for subscribing and notifying me of the subscription fee starting after 1 day.

I blocked my payment card immediately. Reported to both Google and the police.

BEWARE SCAM. This company just tried to take £34.90 from my bank account. Luckily my bank didn’t recognise the transaction and they asked me. I’ve never heard of it. So they’ve blocked my card and sent me a new one.

beware scam, they ask for a payment of £0 for age verification then try to charge you the next day for £34

This company obtained my credit card details by pretending to conduct a £0.00 fee age verification process on an article provided on Facebook. However after capturing my Credit Card details from Facebook they then try to get you to set up an account with them without advising that if you do that you become liable for a monthly subscription fee of £34.90 which can only be cancelled within 24 hours.
Beware - this is a fraudulent act as purporting to do age verification when in fact selling a subscription service you don't want and didn't ask for.

A total con!! Be aware this company takes £34.90 each month if you fail to cancel after 1 day!! I thought I was on RAYMARINE site to find a diagram of my Furlex on my boat but this company ‘caught’ me!!! 1p they wanted for access to the manual… this I paid by iPhone but noticed that fee was refunded which I thought was just as well as the site did not have any real details that I wanted. My statement just arrived and showed this company based in Nicosia (!!) had a subscription for £34.90 each month!!
On querying this with them by email I immediately got a #customer ticket and this morning an email to say that my account was cancelled forthwith. They had just conned me out of that money however!!😩
Fortunately Barclaycard has refunded me and is blocking any future charges but I hope this review can help others not fall for them in the first place!
