VIP membership pricing

Now I’m curious to see what was said to have gotten the post flagged.

the admins will unflag it in time probably but they basically said you were incorrect and showed a screenshot of something apparently showing their charge from trakt

I’ll wait for it to be unflagged then but I’ll already point out that payment processors like Apple Pay, PayPal, etc summarize the total cost including any applicable sales tax and show it all under the vendor heading.

I’d post a copy of my Trakt payment but as that was last year that preceded the date my state decided to charge sales tax on everything.

But I will post my Netflix PayPal and Apple TV+ to show that’s exactly how it processes.

My monthly Netflix fee is $24.99 but because my state requires services to now pay sales tax too, that ends up at $27.61. And Apple TV+ is $9.99 which then becomes $11.04.

Both items don’t break out the charge.

If / when my Trakt goes through it will be charged at $66.30 for me. Nothing to do with Trakt at all.

perfect example, there are some states or regions that require sales tax which has nothing to do with Trakt. Thanks for sharing! :smiley:

I’m lucky enough to be in a state that doesn’t require tax on services

I’ve been a VIP for over 11 years. I only use a couple of the VIP features. The scrobbling they added doesn’t work and messed up my trakt watch history, so I disabled it. Why pay for something that doesn’t work. It should be sold as add-on, but instead they 4x the price of the subscription so they can develop it.
