Trickbind can be used to counter the echo triggered ability. If so, the echo ability won’t trigger again so the echo cost is never paid.
If Trickbind counters an activated ability of a permanent, no activated abilities of that permanent can be activated for the remainder of the turn. This includes activated abilities other than the one that was countered, as well as any mana abilities that permanent may have. Other abilities of that permanent, including triggered abilities and static abilities, are unaffected.
Trickbind can be used to counter the suspend “remove a counter” ability. If so, the counter won’t get removed, but the ability will trigger again as normal later on. Trickbind can also be used to counter the suspend “play this card” ability. If so, the card stays exiled (the ability won’t trigger again). Using suspend to exile a card in your hand is neither an activated nor a triggered ability, so it can’t be countered this way.
