Locked! The initial question from 2015 is outdated. The correct answer at that time describes a procedure that is no more available today.

Adobe is capitalizing on misdirection.  Nothing is truly free with them.

That is bluntly wrong.

In addition, there are tons of free pictures for you to licence. Those are truly free!

It's best to start a new post rather than resurrect one that is several years old. Is it possible that you engaged in the Free Trial subscription using a different email account than you use to logon to Adobe Stock?

Hi!

I have the same problem or misunderstanding as it its described in the original question - Adobe Stock provides 10 free Stock Photos, but only when you register with your bank account, which I find wrong and misleading.

Actually you don't have to do anything for me - as I plan to buy stock photos somewhere else or continue using royalty free photos. Sorry for bothering.

Hi Alexander

I see that you have signed up for the 10 images/month plan, where the first month is free. 

Subscription terms available here: Legal subscription terms | Adobe

Let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks

A couple of months ago we received this offer (10 free images) as part of our creative suite. I checked it out and signed-up, but left those free images on our account to use when we needed an image. Nothing there now!

Should we assume the offer was lost because we didn't need an image when we received it?

Hi Tomas,

I checked your account and do see that you received 10 free standard images on 6/1/2017 which were valid only for a year, therefore, these licenses expired on 7/1/2017.

Let me know if you have any further queries.

Regards,

Sheena

Thanks for your answer. Not sure i understand the dates you mention in combination with the 'valid for a year' .

Must say we feel slightly cheated either way as we never used any of the 10 images Adobe offered us. As i understand now that Adobe sells picture licenses that expire it seems to be a very risky solution to any small to medium sized business.

THIS IS A SCAM - coming from ADOBE - it is nothing less than disgraceful - I have spent well over the cost of buying thse images elsewhere in order to use the 10 images, but it is a run around that one would expect from a FLY BY NIGHT Operator - this is the sig of a company in Desperate need of a cash grab. SHAME ON YOU ADOBE - this is FRAUD

This is such a scam. I thought I had just signed up for a free month and got 10 "free images" Several months later ai realise Adobe have been charging me A$35.99 per month and now to cancel my "free month" I have to pay them another A$88!!

I'm normally very aware of these kind of "get something free but actually if you forget to unsubscribe in time we'll charge you a shitload" scams but Adobe have been quite stealthy with this one.

Very unimpressed!

Hi Josh,

I do understand the concern here and we are working on improving the messaging for customers that sign up for first month free. I also see that you used your subscription for three months after signing up.

I didn't touch it at all after I downloaded the initial free 10 images but just this week I realised Adobe have been charging me A$35.99 per month for 5 months! And the insult to injury is I now have to pay pay A$88 to cancel it after never actually officially choosing to start it!!

So I am just now claiming the additional 60 "free" images that my awesome subscription has entitled me to before I do cancel it.

Hi Karla

Looks like you've licensed 3 images - is everything OK now?

Payment will be required if you are trying to license a Premium image.

Let us know if you still have issues.

Kind regards
