I'm having the opposite problem. I want to keep Shudder but suddenly I cant get on. It's saying I need to start a 7 day free trial. Um, no. I've had this for a few months now with no problems until yesterday. I would hope that I would get an email or some other notification if there was a payment problem, so that I could fix it.

Harmless enough if you want some background horror to enjoy. Nothing too special, but I’ve had some good laughs at some of the dreadful acting in some of the movies.

If horror movies is your "THING" Shudder is "IT"...

I have had shudder for over a year now and it is nothing but great. New movies all the time, old great movies and plenty of selections. But best of all they got joe bob Briggs and he is awesome. This channel rocks and for only $5.99 you can’t beat it!!!

After reading the bad reviews I was dubious, I added Shudder to my amazon, after the 7 day free trial i choose to cancel, simply because I’d watched everything I was interested in, I pressed cancel, my Shudder was cancelled! It’s up to you to cancel and cancel your bank card if they continue to take payments, it’s not Shudders fault!

UPDATE: Had to hassle them but they refunded me in the end. So I amend to a 3, can't go higher than a 3 as there was definitely some friction. Moral: If someone gives you money by accident, give it back when they ask for it.UPDATE: They have now agreed the refund, when it lands in my account I will update this review accordingly. I started my free trial to watch one programme. I never intended to renew. I didn't like the service so I tried to cancel that first day. A month later I was charged the renewal fee. At this point I logged back in for the first time ever to check if it was cancelled. I went through the cancellation process again and realised that I must not have completed the process successfully last time because at the end of the process they make the final confirmation a dark plain text link on a dark background and a message that says "We are sorry to see you go" or something similar that makes it looks like you have left.No problem, I thought, I am sure if they are a reputable company it will just take an email to get a refund, after all what sort of company relies on snakey cancellation system to unwittingly extract money from people who never had any intention of renewing and only used the service once during the month trial? However they refused to refund, and basically said admitted that they do take money from people who never had any intention of giving it to them and got nothing in return. Hopefully it is all a mix up and I will be refunded soon, if I am I will amend the review accordingly, so for now, if you are seeing this they ripped me off and kept my money and you should avoid their "free trial"Is it worth all the hassle over a fiver? :)

A little overpriced considering they don't update the movie library often enough, but a decent addition to my other streaming services.

I like it! Great horror selection and originals. If you're a big horror fan, give it a shot! They're very generous with their free trials.

I am gonna keep true to my word. They told me how to fix the problem. Now I will give them a better rating. They do have a good selection of movies. However if you are looking for mainstream only horror flicks then you are gonna be wasting yer time. That said: Unless you have had a pure awful experience I would say give em a shot.

My CBA debit card was also charged $8.16. I called shudder, and they said that someone had subscribed with my debit card using an email address I never had. They removed the account and told me to contact my bank to reissue my cards and file a dispute.
