Question

Free trial information nowhere to be found

Hi.  I had a PDF to sign for work from home.  The Acrobat Reader DC I have had for years on my Mac said I needed to sign up for a premium service (I have forgotten the name), and that after a 7-day free trial, I would be billed directly using my account on the Google Play Store.  But now I can find nothing in my Google Play account saying that I have a free trial or indicating how to cancel before the billed service kicks in. Can somebody tell where to find that?

I'm almost as puzzled as you. Were you on your Mac when this happened, yet it took you to the Google Play store - which isn't used for Mac apps? Are you sure it wasn't Adobe you signed up with directly? Look in your Adobe account http://account.adobe.com/

Thank you very much for your reply.  I am not a computer genius.  The only thing I can think of is that my Adobe account uses my account on GMAIL as login.  I am absolutely certain that I was supposed to be getting a one-week freel trial, after which I would be billed. I have had a number of free trials on phone apps which showed up in my PLAYSTORE profile in the "SUBSCRIPTIONS" section.  It was not really a suprise when the PLAYSTORE opened on my computer jsut after I clicked on the ADOBE free trial.  So far, I am seeing no current subscriptions in the GOOGLE PLAY ACCOUNT. I also have a reply from an ADOBE COMMUNITY PROFESSIONAL announcing that all PDF services are free until May 31, so I have decided to think about this all later.

I clicked on SEND too soon before. Sorry.
