It's a "daily game" : "Winner Stays On Cryptic Crossword Clue Of The Day" - WSO CCC OTD
The phrase is a clue, or set of clues to a word (or words) that form a Cryptic Crossword Clue: Cryptic crossword - Wikipedia[^] for you to solve. If you get it right inside the time limit, you set the next one (Monday to Friday inclusive) at 09:00 UK time.
For example, One of my recent ones was "Right loam, wrong process (9)" - the number in brackets tells you it has nine letters. The solution is "ALGORITHM":
Right loam is nine letters, wrong indicates an anagram, and process == ALGORITHM, an anagram of "rightloam".

If it's in the agreement doesn't mean it's legal, even if you signed it.
I think you'd still make a pretty strong argument in court if they used your credit card to buy stuff.
Of course you never get to sue them because they won't exist anymore

Yes, it was on top of an international beer chart, but as I only pass through Switzerland to reach my holiday destination, I never drank any Swiss beer

Of course I like it because I know it. But on the other hand I really enjoy Weissbier (this bavarian limonade, when I'm working in Germany) and also Amstel is very good.
But I hate Heineken, for me it tastes like a artificial chemical mixture

I'm not a big fan of Heineken too, I'm more into Belgian beers like Leffe, and nearby where I live there's a local brewery named "Praght Brouwerij" that makes excellent beers. Bit too expensive though to drink everyday ...

Ive been stung by that mistake before.
