"Plan prices aren’t changing.”
Isn't this like saying "The Porsche you rented at $200/mo is now a Honda. But the price hasn't changed!"
- guzfip 6mo ago[dead]
- deeviant 6mo agoIt's more like saying, "and you may now only use the Porsche for 5 minutes out of every day."
- dayjaby 6mo agoFull brake on the autobahn if you hit your 5min limit
- Waterluvian 6mo ago"Your monthly fee isn't changing but it now only covers about 3 days of driving."
- canada_dry 6mo agoThis may be a more accurate analogy... "The Porsche you rented at $200/mo now only allows you a maximum of 100km of travel. You will be automatically charged extra when you go over that."
- adgjlsfhk1 6mo agomore like 100m
- parliament32 6mo agoA whopping 100km per month for the low price of $199.99!* * with a quota of 138 meters per hour, overage charges may apply
- croes 6mo agoMore like, the rising gas prices aren’t a problem, I only ever fill up for $40
- larschdk 6mo agoOn top of being worth less, the subscriber discounts are gone. The old plans were $0.033/request for Pro, $0.026/request for Pro+ and $0.04/request for pay-as-you-go. That discount is now gone. They even still advertise "5x the number of requests" for Pro+ over Pro.
- Hamuko 6mo agoYeah, if I go to a petrol station with 50€, but only get a tenth of the amount of petrol I got last week, I may think that the price has in fact changed.
- pphysch 6mo agoThey are now charging per gallon instead of a flat rate per trip
- KoftaBob 6mo agoIt’s technically true that the plan prices haven’t changed, it’s just the value you get from those plans has plummeted. It’s classic deceptive sales language.
- predkambrij 6mo agoMore like, The Porsche you had for a month you'll now have for 5 min only.
- SomeUserName432 6mo agoHaving rented cars a lot, this is actually quite common.
- tsanzer 6mo agoWhat country, I haven't seen anything but unlimited miles for over a decade.
- SomeUserName432 6mo agoI referred to the swapping of cars to a far inferior model than you paid for. However I do also pay for milage (KM), and extending the rental period does often* NOT extend the milage range. Eg 1 month=1000 KM, 2 months=1000 KM, so you need to split the rental periods yourself and do all that hassle, or pay extra. (*May of course vary depending on the rental company) This being in Brazil.
