Try the following:

Note that the "Upgrade" button is only for buying a paid version of Avast.

So, if you have left your bank details (now or in the past), chances are you will be charged for a paid version in 20 days.
the mistake was certainly you click on "upgrade" thinking to activate free avast . That's not what happened because you activated the trial of the paid version :-[

If this is not your intention, I suggest you contact avast support

As said by Dix Huit link , avast free no need to be activated anymore
