Signing a PDF is something basic available through free software. This site makes it out to support that and waste your time, only to demand the subscription price of a premium service just to download that signed document.

Hello there!
First of, regular signing in a free software is not legally binding, just in case. For an important document (like a contract, invoice, insurance or medical forms, etc.) you would need a legally binding solution (which makes your signature valid), and all of those have paid plans (the price may vary across the market though). Apart from the subscription, the standard protocol for this would also involve account creation which indirectly proves your identity (who is signing a document).
Secondly, please note that in pdfFiller specifically, there is a difference between account creation and paid subscription. If you a first-timer on our site, you can register an account (which is totally free, by the way) and then, our 30-day free trial period will start automatically.
In other words, you can register an account, use the free trial on the documents you need -- and then decide whether you need a paid plan with us or not. You can surely cancel and unsubscribe while still on a free trial, and you won't be charged, we assure you.
Hope this helps!
