Hey, nice, thanks! I just locked in a year at the $5 price, and then another 3 months with those Bing points. I knew searching with Bing was gonna pay off someday!
Adding my thanks to @Chappers for the extension headsup.
Thank goodness you don’t have to confirm a bazillion times to turn off the billing like you do with Humble…

This will still be a great value at $10 a month for PC pass.
However, they still owe me for all the times I have had to buy Minecraft

I hope this a new trend :)
The DLC podcast should sue them

I just went to look and see when my Ultimate expired and found out I had been paying individual months at $15 each since July. Whoops. Is there a yearly card for ultimate I can get? I only see 1 and 3 months on Amazon…

Hmmm, that one is out of stock, plus it’s more expensive per month than buying the 3 month card that CDkeys currently has.

Yeah, they need a purge of crap like that badly.
Cheapest I see right now:
You guys might have already noticed this, but I see that down in the ‘Leaving Soon’ section they now tell you exactly what date each game will leave Game Pass:

Annoyingly the Slickdeals instructions for extending didn’t work for me (probably related to being in Korea - even with the vpn on it seemed to detect I was in Korea). That’s ok - I can pay $10 a month for a few months at least and get value out of it.
Making it worse is that I’m getting kicked off of the OOTP servers every few minutes. I have some complaints about Perfect Team but it is still worth it to me to play for a little bit if the servers will let me stay connected.

I got the email about the price increase, but I don’t know why it’s still showing:
$4.99 every month, next charge on 11/1/2020 with PayPal
Is that what it still says for you guys on the Manage subscriptions page, or did it update to $10?
I believe they are charging the your next monthly installment at the current price and then changing it to $10 starting the the month after.

That would be cool, I’d keep it for an extra month probably. I thought the price increase email said something about the would keep the lower price for renewals within 30 days and I fall outside of that window.

I do too. I dithered about whether to try to lock in the $4.99/month price because I’m still not sure about it. Now it’s too late to lock it in, right? So I guess it’s pay $10/month or bail, and I may just bail.
