9 years VIP and just canceled as well and I guess I’ll just have to check out SIMKL now instead.
12 year VIP “OG” here as well. 4x price increase for me is absolutely insane. I will be canceling my VIP along with everyone else as well. I don’t even use any of the premium features other than the manual refresh for some shows that I’m trying to help repopulate the metadata for other users 
I wanted to support the devs and have been supporting them for many years, but this price hike is just insane. Will move to another service instead.
From a business perspective, it is gross mismanagement.
Yep, I am out also.
Cancelled. Would the last person leaving turn out the lights?
yep, I have cancelled already. I rarely use the site but find it useful when I do, been VIP for 9 years. goodbye everyone.
I’ve heard of Watcharr. Thanks for the reply. I am going to look at all these. Someone said that MDBList is a good place for lists that is on par with the pricing points.
Trakt import was one click for me – already bought the lifetime.
First time poster, also just cancelled. Double the increase is too much
Sorry, you lost me as a customer. Daft decision
I’ve been mostly passively paying VIP for almost a decade at this point. The VIP benefits were never really of use to me other than the badge and the profile header image and I’ve barely used the site for like 6/8 years but kept my VIP to help fund it for those who do since I liked the site for what it is. Hell, this is my first forum post ever.
That being said, $30/year was something I could ignore as a semi-passive expenditure even if I don’t really use it. An increase to $35-$40 would have alerted me but ultimately I would have shrugged it off. I understand hosting and dev costs are expensive, but I personally cannot justify $60 a year on the movie marky site I barely use as is. If I’m gonna pay $60+/year for something, it has to be something I actually use regularly and get something out of so I unfortunately this marks my final year of VIP.
I do have to say that the person who gave the ok to just send it and 2X+ the price of membership for everyone instead of the boiling frog approach is confident. I’m certainly not entitled to a lower price but I choose to not pay it. Best of luck guys.
cancelled. 100% increase is in no way justified.
Been paying happily since the “crash” of 22 and will be cancelling today.
You might want to update your churn reduction notice.

Any discounts or promotions
VIP badge
had been thinking about canceling my subscription since some of the last changes and so called “upgrades” but they’ve just made the decision so easy. Thanks, Trakt team 
Well we saw this coming they kept doing stupid changes and this one was to be expected bye bye i also have cancelled my VIP plan hope they will go down hill hard.
How do I express my outrage while still being civil…
That is an unjustified increase. It is ridiculously high.
Not all of us have deep pockets and high paying jobs and can just absorb the increase.
Some of us are on limited incomes. Some of us don’t live in the US.
Some of us pay for VIP for just one feature.
I only want one feature out of the entire set. But I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay upwards of CAD$84/yr just for iCal calendar feeds. I do want to support the developer but that, to me, is highway robbery.
I doubt @Justin gives a damn about one person’s opinion. But maybe a few more tiers of service below VIP?
Otherwise I’m out. I’ve cancelled my service. I’ll happily remain as a free member.
Edit (@MetaBunny): $30->$60 is still an unjustified increase, no matter how you spin it.
Gonna see if I can migrate everything I’m doing over to simkl. I can do their student plan for 2 years.
I cancelled just now as well. In no world 100% increase is justifiable.
