Yes... and no. In most of our cities, homeowners pay a membership fee to join Angie's List. Angie's List is a premium service. Homeowners pay for reliable data, actual staff support and a monthly magazine, among other things. In new cities, where we're still building the List, homeowners can join for one year free. After the first year, they have the option, not obligation, to renew at the regular monthly or annual price.Here's a breakdown of our membership payment plan options:
Monthly Payment Plan: Our monthly payment plan provides an opportunity to become a member with the lowest upfront cost possible. It also allows budget conscious consumers an opportunity to spread the cost of their membership over 12 calendar months. Members who choose the monthly plan enjoy continuous service billed to their credit card each month. Finally, members who chose the monthly payment plan may cancel their subscription or change to an annual membership at any time. Sorry, no refunds.
Annual Payment Plan: Our annual payment plan provides uninterrupted access to our service for an entire year (or more). Members who choose an annual payment option enjoy significant discounts, and their investment is protected by our 110% money-back guarantee. If an annual subscriber is dissatisfied with our service, we refund 110% of his/her membership fee. Thus, it's a risk- free way to try us out! Members who choose the annual plan also enjoy continuous service billed to their credit card. However, annual subscribers receive a notice about two months prior to their membership's expiration date reminding them of the date upon which their membership will be automatically renewed if we do not hear from them prior.

**All Angie's List members pay a one-time Signup Fee when their membership is activated. Members are not charged this fee again, unless they choose to re-activate their membership after their MONTHLY subscription has been expired for 30 days or their ANNUAL subscription has been expired for more than 180 days.
