These sites are their own worst enemies---when will they learn that good customer service means repeat membership. Thanks for the warning, I'll skip this one.

I also agree.
The sites that play games with their paying members are screwing themselves more than the consumer.
If I like a site I'll "let it ride" for several renewals until I tire of the existing content and the updates aren't enough reason to stick around. The site makes good money at very little cost on these renewals.
The minute I see a deceptive practice, like the zip file surcharge mentioned in brixe's comment, or the sneaky assent hidden in the signup template that he mentions, I'm gone and the site is out the revenue.
The cancellation policy mentioned by exotics4me's review is also a bit on the sleazy side where the site takes your money but fails to deliver the goods.
The worst part for the site is the information sharing available to us on PU. The money spent by Mac & Bumble promoting its site and the special discount offered to TBP members is now a lost cause to M & B just because they tried to be a little bit too slick.
Their loss.
I'd like TBP to consider revising their high score (90.8) for M & B to reflect these serious deceptive practices.
