It was very easy to see an option for those that don't have a .EDU address; it's clearly stated right on the site in the post's link: "No .edu email? No problem. ā€ØClick here to learn how you can still qualify. Offer terms apply." That link takes you to an option that uses the promo code "non_edu_promocode", which worked fine for me. Perhaps "Fundamentals of Reading Web Pages" should be a mandatory course. Smilie

Just a note that I had to add exceptions to my ad- and tracking-blockers to get through the "onboarding" process and to go through the cancellation ordeal.

The site is clearly designed to be misleading in a lot of ways (four steps to cancel, each of which makes you think you're making a terrible, irreversible mistake). As many others have stated (thanks!), you can "cancel", and you'll still receive your free year. I'd recommend that everyone do this immediately. They're clearly planning to make a lot of money off students who forget and will be charged $180 in a year.
I canceled right after signing up will continue to have access for one year.

Also, this is from their TOS: "You may cancel a Recurring Subscription at any time, but if you cancel your subscription before the end of the current subscription period, we will not refund any subscription fees already paid to us. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the service through the end of your current subscription period.

Like some others said, I got a very delayed email sent. It took over an hour and a half and by that time I went to bed. I reached out to MasterClass several times and it's been a week and not a word from them. Seems like they need to take a MasterClass on customer service. Will not deal with them now or in the future since they don't seem to have their shit together.

Quote from nurture_reality :
Same thing happened to me. I immediately emailed support and here we are, 3 days later, with no reply. I disputed the charge with my CC - luckily I took a screenshot of the checkout page showing the $179 discount and noting that I would be charged $1.
I also haven't received any response and just sent another email saying I'd dispute with CC. Can you share your screen shot? I only have the one from my phone...thanks

I looked into this deal when it was 5 minutes to 12AM! Somehow, I managed to sign up and create an account but the payment didn't go through as it was post 12AM. Dejected, I left this deal.
One week later, I wanted to give this a shot with the support team to see if they can help post the transaction through of $1. The support team didn't respond two weeks into this (had to follow up with them one week in), after which they apologized for the delay and to make up for all this, gave me 1 year membership for free as a gift!
Lesson learned : Shots you miss, are the ones you didn't take!

I got in on the deal just before it expired prior to midnight. After reading this again today, I contacted their support team who clarified any questions and confirmed my 2021 expiration. All under 20 minutes.

Agreed, I've got only a few days left before mine goes kaput. It was a pretty good experience.

When did you cancel? It might not have gone thru if it was within 24hrs.
I cancelled mine right after I registered. I only watched a couple videos though...didn't even finish them LMAO Can't complain for $1.

A month ago.. Either way, I'm thankful they refunded me after I logged a ticket.

Same happened to me, they had a process for automatic refund if the charge was less than 30 days ago.

Good thing I was able to log in, I don't have access to that edu account to reset the password.
