FRM取消自动续费和申请退款

Kevin.xi

FRM的官方机构GARP提供一个Garp Membership的服务。订阅这个服务后，可以看Risk Professional Magazine杂志，还可享受一些乱七八糟的服务。但这个服务需收取195美元的年费，像我这种劳动人民基本不需要这种服务。这个服务的头年是免费的（因为你为了考试交了很多考试费，所以免费送了你一年membership）。但坑爹的是，在你注册的时候，它默认勾选上了自动续费。所以当你第一年免费membership到期后，你便会被自动从信用卡里扣除你的第二年年费。

所以，注册了FRM考试的同志们，赶紧去Garp网站取消你的自动续费选项。

取消GARP Membership是否影响接下来的考试和FRM持证呢？放心吧，GARP明确说了不会：

Do I need to be an Individual (paid) Member in order to use the FRM designation?
GARP does not currently require you to be an Individual Member to use your FRM designation. However, we do encourage you to maintain your Individual GARP Membership in order to utilize all the benefits available to you.

Do I have to be a member of GARP to sit for the FRM Exam?
No. Membership is not required to sit for the FRM Exams. However, you will be automatically provided with complimentary membership privileges as an Individual Member of GARP for one year upon paid enrollment in the FRM Program.

同时，如果你像我一样不幸，直到信用卡被GARP扣掉了钱才发现有这个事情，你还是可以把钱要回来：尽量早地（60天以内），向membership@garp.com写信，要求「cancel membership and refund」即可。GARP大约会在一周时间左右给答复，同意退款，然后你的membership被降级到Affiliate Membership FREE，这可以在GARP网站上查到你的状态。

让我想一想

您好！ 我发了退款信去您说的地址，但是它一直显示： membership@garp.com The recipient's e-mail address was not found in the recipient's e-mail system. 说没有这个地址，该怎么办啊? 急！

我想问一下怎么在扣费之前看自己是不是这个状态呢？PS我是才报名还没有考试的新手。。。报名的时候稀里糊涂不知道有没有勾选这个选项。。。
