Upcoming VIP Renewal Pricing Changes (2)

Furthermore, in case you feel you have covered all of the above disputes by pointing us to this post (Upcoming VIP Renewal Pricing Changes – Effective June 12, 2025 - #3 by marius) by a user named “Marius”, with the forum-title “Executive Producer”, explaining why he thinks the grandfathered pricing is unsustainable.

This person is not listed on Trakt’s own “Meet the team” segment on (About Trakt - Trakt), or on Trakt’s LinkedIn page (Trakt | LinkedIn), as well as other forum members openly questioning Marius’ credibility to be speaking in such an executive manner.

As such, Marius can not realistically be considered a credible representative with executive powers, and can at most be seen as a community manager making a mediocre attempt at damage control.

We can all understand why grandfathered pricing is not sustainable for Trakt and how you would rather increase the subscription fee.

The problem is not WHY you want to make these changes, the problem is HOW you implement these changes with complete disregard to prior, legally binding, promises and the actual neglect of following basic rules regarding consumer law.

If you could kindly explain how you will execute your plans following basic consumer protection laws, instead of why, it will be very much appreciated by everyone.
