If you use them, watch your credit...

I had this exact same experience! Glad to know I wasn't alone. What a neat concept that flopped terribly in practice.
The multiple $1 charges were so scummy though.

They won't refund "Top up" if you cancel service. They said they will transfer it to new freemium account. Can it be used to pay for additional 500MB after free 25MB allowance?
