I own an iPhone and I like apps.
So when I came across...
...in the App Store, I thought "Kool"!
When I read the description...
Comic Heroes is your exclusive guide to all things comics related - from the books themselves through to the films and games they inspire. Released six times per year, every issue brings you interviews with creators from around the world, definitive reviews of the latest comics, news and reports from the biggest conventions and loads more.
****Note: This digital edition does not include the covermount items or supplements you would find with printed copies****
...and saw the screenshot of the cover...
...I thought "Nifty"!
When I saw the price...
FREE!
...I thought "WOW"!
So, I "bought" it, which because it was "free", didn't cost anything...at that point!
Then, after I scrolled down to the bottom of the screen (which isn't visible without considerable scrolling), I saw...

This is NOT "Free" by any definition!
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY!
$30.00 for a digital-only subscription to a magazine you could pay less for in it's print incarnation!

Corporate responsibility is inextricably linked to the reputation and commercial performance of our business.
Yet they deceptively advertise something for "FREE" that's NOT free!
I don't want to be billed for something I can't afford to "buy", though it's listed for "free".
So how do I remove it from my iPhone?
