Automatic renewal[ Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#11)

My company was looking at buying an Enterprise Server license from RedHat by using a credit card. But their license agreement specifically stated that RedHat reserved the right to automatically bill the provided credit card for annual renewal license fees. So we decided to issue a PO instead. At least RedHat made the provision clearly available on their web site, before we had to provide a credit card number. And I thought the lack of security was what would keep me from using my own credit card on line. This ranks on the high end of the "reasons not to purchase on line" list.
