(Wisconsin Radio Network) A new year means new budgets, and it’s also a time to see what subscriptions you’re being charged for.

According to the Wisconsin Radio Network, Wisconsin Consumer Protection administrator Michelle Reinen says a look through your credit card and checking records might turn up some surprises.

That could range from online video services to magazines to cable contract or subscription boxes. Companies have to provide a way to cancel services, but some may make it difficult to do.

If you run into trouble, contact Consumer Protection at 800-422-7128.
