Education Portal set to charge from Tomorrow! - EI2HCB - 04-24-2014
My Goodness! Not much notice of their effort to monetize! From Friday the payment will be 19.99 per month after six months and $99.00 per month for premium service. So says an email this morning in my inbox! Drat and double drat. Makes Instantcert seem like great value now!

I got the same email this morning. Though I love EP videos, I don't think I'll be paying that much per month... Great resources they've got especially to those who want to CLEP.

I agree with Saharapost

you still have 6 months of free access, you just have to select a plan and active your extended free access after Friday. So if anything you need to study, take advantage.

If we select a plan can we cancel before we get charged?

I had just started to use the site and can't see myself paying that monthly fee. It seems a little steep to me. I don't see why you couldn't cancel right before you are due to be charged. Just make sure you read the fine print!

I think they are out of their minds for charging that much money. I used their videos to supplement my studying for the Social Pyschology ECE, and skimmed through a few of their literature offerings. While they were useful, I could not have used them as my sole study material. I don't think their courses were comprehensive enough to justify that rate.

Yes I just started using this site and like it, was disappointed it is going to pay. However I planned to give it a go with the free trial but get an error and it won't let me set up for a plan.
Anybody else having this problem? I contacted their support and waiting on a response.

I don't see a $19.99 plan. I see $49.99 and $99.99 plans. That is way too expensive for some low-budget videos, imo. Might as well buy a textbook.

As a beta subscriber (which you are considered if you received the email) click on the basic account. On the create your account screen look to the right to see the 30.00 discount, monthly total 19.99
I plan to take advantage of the site for the trial period and cancel a few days before end of promo.
