I just checked and am seeing the special price that shows on the listing. If you're not seeing that price, you might try clearing your cache (Temporary Internet Files) and any cookies you have associated with that site, then revisiting directly from one of our links.
If you don't see it then, I guess it's possible the site is using regional pricing.
Perhaps one of our other users can confirm that one way or the other.

I just checked, and I am seeing the $19.95/month special price.
But I live in the U.S.
So I guess you are being hit with regional pricing, if the price you see is about $30/month.
I used the PU hot link to go to the site. Did you remember to use the PU hot link?
My apologies, if the question is obvious.

The price i am seeing is $19.95 plus UK VAT @ 17.50% $3.49 = $23.44.
Seems odd to me that a site which appears to be US based would charge UK VAT, not seen that scam before.

There are few limits when it comes to ways people can grab more of your money.
When I bought my first computer, many years ago, I bought it from a mail-order company. The company was out of state, which means it was located in a different state from the one I lived in. I live in the United States. At that time, and it's still the case, out of state sellers did not charge state sales tax (no sales tax from the state of the seller, and no sales tax from the state of the buyer).
But I was charged my state sales tax on the purchase of the PC, by the seller.
In theory, the seller was supposed to turn the "state sales tax" money over to the state I lived in.
On a practical basis, there was no way to check to see if the seller did turn the money over to my state, or just kept the money.
And legally, I believe the seller could keep the "sales tax money", and claim that it was holding the money to turn over to my state. If the matter had ever gone to a court of law.
But my guess is that the "VAT tax" would be kept by the seller, with the intention of turning it over the the British government. This would happen when the seller dies, and goes to heaven, and does pay the British government it's fair share of all revenues.
