About 5 years ago I was able to get AOL for free by doing free 1 month trials with my different credit card numbers and after a certain period of time I could reuse those credit card numbers.

Does anyone know if this is still possible to due? And if so, what is the period of time that i can recycle card numbers.

Question

I know you will get it for free, but why would you want AOL for free???...

I cringe when I have to use a friends PC that has AOHell on it.....

Im not a fan of AOL but I am a fan of free internet. I checked CNET for ISP options in my area and none are free. a few offer 10-20 free hours/month.

if there are any other ideas for free internet then please let me know.

Free AOL is kinda like a free Yugo. I'd rather walk.

you can still do it....but my sister found a better way.... she did the 1 month trial (she only signs on once a week), they called to see if she wanted to continue...she said no, so they offered her 3 months free. So far they've done this twice.
