Doubling the price for long time supporters is insane. 9 years vip here and this is going to be my last one.

Is it just me or has the cancel option for closing the account been removed from manage VIP? Like in the last half hour?
It’s pretty obvious that he meant yearly
I just did it 2 mins ago so the option is still there

Just cancelled my VIP after 8 years, doubling the price without doubling the value proposition makes this an easy decision.

VIP user of 11 years, so much for getting to keep my OG trakt membership. I’ll be canceling and deleting my account. What a crock of shit.

At this point for me not even course correcting can save Trakt. I gave you money for 13 YEARS. Thru all the ups and downs in my life. I haven’t even had netflix for that long. Best of luck with a quarter or less the amount of vips.

I was only just a year old VIP member but I have cancelled my subscription. This is far too much of a steep increase.
I became a VIP to support Trakt and to show my appreciation for the service. Doubling the price is too much for me to continue. I cancelled my renewal and will be looking for another platform.

Same here 11 years. Going from $15 to $60 is out of control. Ive been here long enough that I have direct emails with Justin.
“You’ve been with us since the early days, and we’re incredibly grateful. Your support as a VIP member has helped shape Trakt into what it is today.”
This move doesn’t feel that way.

14 year OG here. Just cancelled. I do not use the service enough to warrant the existing price, I just kept the subscription going to support the service. This huge price hike is enough for me to cancel.
Feeling a bit insulted tbh!

Yeah, absolutely bonkers decision. The only thing I really used was the advanced filters and theres no way I’m paying ~$100 AUD per year for that.

The price increase is too high. 100%!?!
After 7 years of VIP membership, I’ve now canceled.
I spent countless hours migrating to TMDB.
What a shame.
And no option for a lifetime VIP like Simkl? Shame. Been a member for 10 years, but looks like it’s time to review other options…
11 years VIP member here (who has just renewed at $30). I’ve never really got $30/year value from Trakt, but I’ve kept up my membership all these years because, meh, it’s $30.
At $60, forgetaboutit. Cancelled.
You’d better define “lifetime” before looking for that option here. Trakt”s life expectancy might be shortened after this clusterf#ck!

Would you really buy lifetime from a company that goes back on promises less than a year ago? I know I wouldn’t.

Ive seen this mentioned in the other more popular thread, it seams a nice copy of trakt. but maybe my math are wrong but suggesting the VIP of that site is more than the monthly increase here.
Simkl price
It’s roughly the same, they have a lifetime option as well as a discounted monthly for students. Would you rather give your money to them or a company that treats its customers like Trakt is right now?
