Nice timing for a month after the UK launch. Ugh. UK viewers if they signed up when the geo-block was disabled won't be charged anything until 1st March. People who cancelled because of the Rumble or to try and trick the system, and resubscribed I believe were charged. But if you've signed up from the beginning you shouldn't have been charged anything at all yet and won't be until 1st March Essentially UK viewers get a month and a half, and two PPVs free. I started subscribing on the Thursday, so its not just those who started when the geo-block was disabled.

It's the same thing.

I'm not a subscriber yet. If the next billing period isn't going to start until 1st March, do I need to wait until Sunday (1st February) to signup or could I join now ano get the next few days and February for free?

I'd personally wait until February just to make sure. Builds up a bit of NXT backlog to hammer into at the very least.

I'd personally wait until February just to make sure. Builds up a bit of NXT backlog to hammer into at the very least. I'm inclined to leave it a few days to be safe but with regards to the 14 day cooling-off period that they have to offer, the Network site says: I assume they'd consider the date of purchase to be whenever someone signs up (as it is technically 'purchased', even if it hasn't been paid for yet). Regardless of whether I signed up now or in a few days time, that would mean the cooling-off period would expire during the free month anyway, rather than the cooling-off period beginning in March once the free month is over. Can anyone with a better understanding than me confirm this?

Like a security deposit. So I guess you get that money back when the month ticks over. Don't know why it's not like you can do any damage or anything.

Ive already asked this (and its a stupid question) but i just want to make sure i know what i am doing before i sign up
Is it possible to sign up now (im in the uk) and then cancel straight away before the end of the month (so i basically only have the network for a month and it ends on march 1st) or will it automatically renew at the end of the month and take £9.99 from my account? Is it just like amazon prime where i can just click one button to cancel and it will not auto renew, or do i need to go through a lot of crap such as calling them up on the phone etc?

On the WWE Network website, click My Account then go to Billing Information. There you can cancel and you'll still get the rest of the month.

Although even if you don't do the cancel trick and just pay each month:
10 payments from 1st March - 1st December (covering up to 31st December) it works out to about £8.32 for 12 PPVs, if you factor in the 'free' RR and FL.

Ive just signed up and it says this on the comfirmation email -
'If you cancel before the first payment date (which is 14 clear days from the date of your order), access to the WWE Network will stop immediately. If you cancel after the first payment date, access to the WWE Network will continue until the end of the then current subscription period.'
So what happens if i cancel it right now? Will i no longer have access or will i still get it til the end of feb?

cancel before the date they take the money it ends there and then, pay first then cancel you have to the rest of the month because you've paid for it.

They say that the first billing date is March 1st so what happens if i cancel before then? Will i no longer get the free month?

What I don't understand is if it's free for Feb why when I sign up they are asking for me credit card details "You will be billed £9.99 per month starting March 1, 2015"
?

So they can charge you in March without having to get you to fill card details in. Hope is people will treat it like Netflix and keep it ticking over. If people had to actively activate their subscription post free-trial most people wouldn't bother or forget,but most will happily let it tick over like all the other subs we have.
