Matched Betting - whats the catch?

I am looking for positive and negatives in this. I have done quite a bit of research, but I can't seem to find any reasons why NOT to have a go (if only for a month) just to see.

I've read that its not as lucrative as it once was, but that's not a big issue. I'm not looking for a get rich quick scheme just an extra £50 here and there.

I've done a free trial with Oddsmonkey and wondering if its worth paying for a month seeing how I do. The thing I'm nervous of here is that if I decide its not for me can I leave? They require me setting up a regular monthly payment. I've made more than the first month's subscription in my 3 sign ups so I wouldn't be any worse off than I was a week ago. I just don't want to be stuck and find it difficult to cancel. I don't want to ask them or anyone with them cos all you hear is definitely worth it and they make loads of money on it etc. No-one ever tells you when they don't

I just haven't found any evidence (looking at reviews on things like trustpilot etc) of any negativity, but surely there must be some kind of catch? Or some cases where its all gone tits up for people?
