To access the records you will need to register (or log-in if you have registered previously) but you will not need to provide credit card or bank details.
Tip: if you're asked to provide payment information it’s because you’re using the wrong site, accessing records that aren't included in the offer, or else have clicked on the Free Trial icon by mistake.
