2022-07-10	St*****	The one star is because of the way the app is run when you 'subscribe'. When you authorise your annual payment, they automatically retain details of your credit card. Even Amazon, the biggest data miners on the planet allow the option to not have them store your credit card details. When I contacted them about this, they stated they need the card details to keep the subscription, 'active'. Rubbish! They have no right to store my details. The media should do a story on this breach of my data!
